Coping with Covid

Hello hello and welcome back to Coping With Covid, or now Coping With Slightly Less Covid ?? This week we have a super interesting and enjoyable episode with my cousin Hannah and uni friend Eilidh - two medic students - as we talk about how covid will change the learning ladnscape for medics, the public's attitude towards hygiene and being a Tesco delivery driver. Hannah's sold her car, bought a van and renovating it for road trip compatibility. Eilidh's been learning the ukulele, working on the frontline and getting drunk on a podcast, and I've been trying to find my brother and the police in the middle of the night - oh and reading Normal People.Make sure to subscribe on whatever platform you're listening and follow the instagram @copingwithcovidpodcast and leave a review on itunes/the apple podcasts app!

Joined this week by the extremely artistically talented Dan and Lily who have both been getting their art on during lockdown, I've been watching films and managing to pass it off as a skill - so exactly the same as every other episode.
