Stories from quarantine: "essential" construction in NYC and Ramadan in the age of COVID-19: OTR 4/26/20


Listen Later

Host Matthew Schneeman guides listeners through another "frankensteined" episode of stories and music breaks brought to you from our scattered and quarantined OTR team! Emily Scott brings you stories on what is considered "essential" construction in NYC; a crimes against humanity trial against perpetrators in the Syrian civil war beginning in Germany; and how humans have reproduced ridged cactus coral in captivity for the first time ever. Matt shares stories on garbage collection in NYC; how COVID-19 is affecting Ramadan this year; and reads a story provided by host Theresa Robbinson on U.S. school closures during the pandemic.


The episode closes with an excerpt from Matt's podcast "At Night I Fly." You can find more episodes of that show here: http://hyperurl.co/4496m1


Songs included in this episode are "He Will" by Tim Bowman Jr. feat. Vickie Winans (incorrectly called "Come Together" in the broadcast); "Is This Love" by Bob Marley & The Wailers; and "Don't Rush" by Young T & Bugsey feat. Headie One.
