In the wake of the emerging pandemic, the Troubled Men convene from their respective safe houses on a party line with Dick Deluxe, the Zelig of rock and roll, to discuss the new paradigm, possible ways forward, and the loss of Kenny Rodgers. Social distancing may be new to most people, but it’s old hat to Manny Chevrolet.

Topics include a prediction come true, a job opening, reduced resources, new methods, contagion, an encore appearance, a last hurrah, a sea change, a porchcast, police action, poetry reading, hoarding, essential business, creative solutions, the gig economy, hand washing, public filth, an unknown threat, a silver lining, alcohol therapy, failed leadership, Mickey Newbury, a bet, Neil Diamond, Diamond Heads, HD streaming, a learning curve, a golden age, a cliffhanger, and much more.
