This week is in VR again since social distancing is still in place. We look forward to being back in the studio again, but given the current recommendations by our State and Federal government and Curtis\' continued exposure we will continue to meet, stream, and record like this. Covid-19 is still a huge topic, but we tried to bring some light-hearted stuff to the conversation as well. Next week\'s challenge is to avoid talking about the current virus situation. Come back to find out if we could do it! We also shared some amazing TIL\'s and Shower Thoughts!

Shower Thoughts:

You wake up, it\\u2019s 2050, what do you google first?

A telltale sign you\'re becoming an adult is when you first realize how freaking fast dust forms.

The day cheese becomes an acceptable gift is the day you officially become an adult.

The more dangerous you are with a gun, the less dangerous you are with a gun

If cats could fly, we\\u2019d rarely see them in the air unless they were hunting birds. They\\u2019d mostly stare at us condescendingly from the tops of buildings and utility poles.

There is always a spot in the universe where, if you have a powerful enough telescope, you can see anything that ever happened on Earth.

There could be a bug or animal that camouflages itself so well no human has ever noticed they exist.

A lawyer\'s job is to protect you from other lawyers.

Maybe nudists just really don\\u2019t like doing laundry

If someone had told you on April 1st, 2019, that a year later the entire world be locked down with thousands dead, you would\'ve thought they were bad at April Fool jokes.

It\\u2019s assumed that passing away in your sleep is a peaceful way to go, but in reality, it could be the scariest possible night-terror ever.

No matter where you go, you never see anyone with the same refrigerator as you.

It actually makes sense that they use physical media in Star Wars instead of digital copies. When you have a ship that can go faster than light, it\\u2019s probably much, much quicker to just bring someone a disc than it is to try and email it to them.
