In this episode Leland discusses the recent decision to shut down restaurants and bars, why there’s actually good that will come from what America is going through and we get an update from Dr. John Michels on what to expect next, what we should be doing to slow the spread and just how bad this is to begin with.

So glad I found you and Cameron. Good stuff. Dwight and Sooper Dave are funny and great but I can’t handle Vanneti. Poor guy just isn’t very bright and wildly makes tons of false statements. Good luck.
ps. I’d pay for yalls show.

Brent, Thanks so much for the kind words of support. We’re gonna do our best to keep the show free, so you and as many others can enjoy it as possible. Hopefully, we’ll be able to monetize through non-intrusive ads. That will be our preferred option! Thanks and keep listening!

Been wondering where you all were (someone forwarded me one of your podcasts), and great to see Cameron onboard. Ironically, our daughter and I (current student & alumna respectively), just watched the 1996 & 1998 Final Four games over the weekend. Had the opportunity to tell her Cameron’s story, and to hammer the point that you’ll never have excellence without experience (not a Cal fan), but I digress. 🙂
Thomas Massie wrote this yesterday:
“When this is over, the greatest harm to society will have been the public’s unquestioning acceptance of the unchecked authority of governments to force PRIVATE BEHAVIOR (emphasis mine) and disrupt economies.”
The virus isn’t shutting down the economy, governments are…even when the numbers/variables/constants remain ambiguous. Responsible people are doing responsible things: supporting our vulnerable, good hygiene/diet, distancing and (for us) prayer, and unfortunately if you want people to be free to do the right thing, they have to be free to do the wrong thing. Some can laud the encroachment of government all they want, but those who know non-revisionist history, know the perils of that encroachment, and that govt action as of late, are those of which dystopian novels are composed, lol. #JustSayin
My guess is that a global economic summit will convene when this is over; what happens there will be most telling, and as usual, the devil will be in the hidden details.
“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” ~Benjamin Franklin
P.S. Would pay for the show as well, if we have any money left after all this.

Thanks for the thoughtful comments. I do believe Massie is correct to question this. In fact, tomorrow’s podcast will feature Rep Massie and the next part of our multipart series on the DC Swamp. We’ll broach this issue as well. Thanks for listening. Stay tuned!
