Episode 93 – COVID, Moon Knight and Batman
Overview
COVID is still around and still has people catching it – and there are new variants. We don’t usually complain, but we have complaints about non-COVID believers and the other thinking of these type of people.
On better news – the new Batman movie. I mean – wow, we loved it. If you haven’t seen it, we don’t give away too much, but we can’t say enough good things about this movie.
And Moon Knight. We didn’t talk much, but we discussed what we hope it is and isn’t.
How manly is it to drink through a straw?

They actually had a video game with those two it was a split screen and you ran around and you had to hide bombs and try and catch each other. So it was it’s perfectly
[00:00:52] Alan: appropriate. It’s amazing for that premise of them trying to outwit each other 40, [00:01:00] 50 years worth of work out of it. And I think that Peter Kuyper or somebody took over after him, but he was amazingly prolific and inventive for that relatively simple premise, good stuff.
[00:01:11] Stephen: Yeah. Always fun and low in the little margins. Occasionally use it it’s just all that great stuff Matt always did. So how are you, Ellen?
[00:01:20] Alan: I’m doing fine. It some. Tough news. My mom was diagnosed with COVID. Ooh, geez. She’s in a memory care facility out in California, and it’s already relatively locked down in isolated.
Nobody can get in without testing for temperature at the desk and making sure that you’re fully vaccinated and stuff like that. And yet two people in her area herself included have now tested positive. It’s always that little weirdness of, Hey, I’m all the way here in Cleveland. And she’s in near San Diego and my, my younger brother and his family [00:02:00] are out there.
So they’ll be able to visit or not visit depending on what their new protocols are. It just is I dunno, helpless making. And I just inspired by that. I signed up to get my fourth booster. You know what I mean? The CDC just approved for anybody 50 or over that has various different health compromises and anybody 65 or older period.
And because I’ve had my melanoma and my atrial fibrillation, I check enough boxes so that I seem to get first dibs when things become available. So this very afternoon one o’clock, I’m signed up to get my next booster. And we’ll see, usually there’s a rough two or three days where while your body is building its defenses, it gives you a little bit of fever, a little bit of headache, but the fourth one that’s what I’m hoping is my body will say, oh, we’ve seen this before.
And we’ll just re gear up from according to the science, the vaccine fades with time this one in particular, because [00:03:00] it’s, I should, I don’t know why because it’s MRN because it’s not dead versus a vaccine. And your body’s immune response there, your body’s always working to fend off various different things and whatever your body gets trained to do about this one, it gets lesser priority, perhaps, so that it’s not, it hasn’t turned to nothing, but efficacy goes down from like 95% to 80% still good armor.
