Kat and Moose discuss Coronavirus conspiracy theories and how to deal with isolation, loneliness and the newly unexpected time on all our hands. The conversation turns into sharing their favorite books, meditations and tv shows.
Kat reveals the new additions to her vocabulary thanks to the Coronavirus (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html) . Pandemic (https://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/features/what-is-pandemic#1) . Social-distancing (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/16/smarter-living/coronavirus-social-distancing.html) . Flattening the curve (https://www.livescience.com/coronavirus-flatten-the-curve.html) . Moose isn’t mad about staying at home and slowing down. But Kat is mad about the time and energy spent on conspiracy theories. Did you know that Chinese citizens aren’t allowed to have a Twitter account?
Kat learns about the World Military Games (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_World_Games) and how one theory suggests that military personnel from the US may have brought Coronavirus to Wuhan, China. Who knew that China, Brazil and Russia would be the predominant leaders in the World Military Games?
Moose asks Kat about her activities as the world seems to be shutting down. Kat goes grocery shopping. Moose goes to Walgreens for Benadryl and leaves with sanitary gloves.
What can we do while we are stuck at home? Kat recommends writing your sponsored children through organizations like World Vision (http://worldvision.org) , Compassion (http://compassioninternational.org) , Food for the Hungry (http://fh.org) . The Vlog Brothers (https://www.youtube.com/user/vlogbrothers/videos) released an inspiring vlog about what to do during this time called The Anxious Scroll (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6xA-oh6xUM) .
Moose recommends shopping locally, utilizing small businesses. Kat and Moose encourage you to CALL YOUR PEOPLE! Write a letter. Communicate with your family and friends.
