This week starts with COVID talk. Tyler is tracking the omicron variant, and Matt just wants to know if he’s supposed to worry about this one.

Tyler has questions about traveling during these unprecedented times, and Matt reveals himself to be a parrot head.

Matt has an idea for a main topic, but neither of them can think of a catchy name for it. Basically, this topic is a way for your hosts to discuss their favorite artists, storytellers, and creators.
