Hi Y'All. Once again let's address the serious stuff up front. We're all likely going through some form of lock down right now. Social distancing is one of our most effective ways of dealing with the CoVID19 global pandemic. When we posted the last episode there were some 2.1 million officially reported cases worldwide now there's 3.5 million and hundreds of thousands tragically dead and it is sadly not over yet The impact of CoVID19 on our daily lives will be felt for generations to come. So once again we urge all of you to follow the advice of your recognized local medical experts and adhere to government guidelines in your area. If you can stay home, do so. And just like last time if your government is handing out bonkers advice like injecting disinfectants maybe look to a more sensible world leader. We'd still ask you to remember you will still get to go to your local pub or go on your beach holiday when this is all over but you'll enjoy it a whole lot more if you're not dead. So yes, you might be frustrated and bored of being at home and drinking with your Nan but this is for the good of the many and it doesn't always have to be about you.
So this time less barnstorming mid nineties action histrionics and more early 2010's seriousness from the Academy Award winning director of a series of cracker films, Steven Soderbergh.
So stay in some more, wash your hands again with soap and hot water for at least 20 seconds, put your feet up after you've taken your filthy shoes off, be kind to others and tune into this podcast about an absolutely chilling take on a global pandemic.
