  • Summary

  • Sam & Julie are back to talk pandemic news here in small town Pennsylvania. Though we’d rather not be back to talk about the pandemic, it’s an unfortunate reality that cases are high and the hospitals are crowded. Again. Get the basics on what you need to know -- even if it feels nicer not to know -- about COVID during the winter holidays.
