We take listener calls and questions with Dr. Shira Doron, attending physician, and Hospital Epidemiologist at Tufts Medical Center, and Associate Professor at Tufts University School of Medicine, and Dr. Eric Dickson, president and CEO of UMass Memorial Health, based in Central Massachusetts.

With temperatures set to plummet overnight, and single digits in the forecast, we warm up with a hot bowl of soup and take listener calls with Bryan Roof, executive food editor for Cook's Country magazine and an on-screen test cook for Cook's Country.

Plus, with cold temps in the forecast, we try to warm up with some tips and tricks for making your favorite soup.

As omicron cases continue unabated in Massachusetts, we take a look at how the pandemic is still impacting older adults, prisoners, those with intellectual developmental disabilities, and others who live group homes and settings where they can't or don't get out, and don't have control over who comes in.

We're joined by Joe Battenfeld, political columnist for the Boston Herald, and Renée Graham, columnist and associate editor for the Boston Globe.

Our guests include U.S. Congressman Seth Moulton, former presidential advisor David Gergen, Harvard's Joan Donovan, and former U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Andrew Lelling.

Massachusetts Congressman Seth Moulton was there one year ago today, when insurrections stormed the U.S. Capitol. Moulton join us, along with David Gergen, an advisor to four former U.S. Presidents, and the founding director of the Center for Public Leadership at the Harvard Kennedy School, where he is a professor.

We talk about accountability, and what the future may hold for extremism locally and nationally with Joan Donovan, Research Director at Harvard's Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics, and Public Policy and Andrew Lelling, former US Attorney for Massachusetts in the Trump Administration. Lelling coordinated with US Attorney's office in the District of Columbia on prosecutions.

Massachusetts Congressman Jim McGovern was there when insurrectionists stormed the capital on Jan. 6, 2021. We get his reflections one year later.

Plus, snow's coming, and while the forecast totals are still being adjusted, it looks like this one will probably stick. That means there will be snow to move - but will there be people and plows to move it?
