This is a rambling episode during which Kegan, Mark and Michael speak briefly about peace officers and riot officers, the problems they deal with and the ones they have, with specific attention paid to shooting accuracy in the context of old NYPD statistics and a recent event in Salt Lake City, as well as the dehumanizing aspect of a uniform and job choice. Public guillotining receives attention (again), as do term limits and the political support that encourages and allows the behavior by police that citizens are currently protesting against — the same political behavior that creates solutions to problems they themselves have created. We learn that Kegan hates masks, Mark believes they are more effective at controlling minds than virus transmission but wears one in deference to others who have different levels of comfort when spacing cannot be controlled, and Michael conducts himself as if everyone already has the virus.
The main takeaway from the first hour regards paying attention how difficult it can be for some to notice the distance between themselves and their fellow humans, or when they touch their faces, etc. To live “normally” it is imperative to educate ourselves about the mechanics of virus transmission, why plain (non-anti-bacterial) soap works to deactivate the virus, and ultimately, to practice self-awareness.
Other topics include cocaine, sushi, fireman calendars, and managing focus to accomplish particular objectives.
