The Hannah & Fred Show

On this episode, we kick things off with our medical contributor, Dr. Raj Dasgupta, M.D., FACP, FCCP, FAASM, who brings us up to speed on all things COVID, and the latest with President Trump’s diagnosis. Then, college during COVID is not what our current students thought their continuing education would look like. From Fred’s alma mater, Bradley University, Dr. Stephen Standifird talks about keeping a campus safe (and hopefully digs up Fred’s report cards). We follow up talking about Reinvent Your Life with the author, Kathi Sharpe-Ross, and Shannon Babcock, whose story is featured within. Finally, have you wondered what COVID is like in other countries? We do, and are excited to learn how COVID is changing Israel, its tourism, economy and long-term outlook.
