Greetings from the lonely world of the socially distance! On this episode, we have a special guest applying her healthcare expertise to help us understand COVID-19, what you should be doing, how the US healthcare system is woefully unprepared for what’s to come, and how you can support healthcare workers at this time. Live from the Hog Planet...Please DON’T ask us to watch Babe: Pig in the City unless it’s COMPLETELY necessary.

Notes:

Irish people DO make up 10% of the US!
