In this episode, i discuss the importance of individual thought and analysis. I emphasize that it is very important to research and listen to alternative viewpoints, instead of taking someone else's word for it. I call out the media and the two party political system for its divisive and powerful influence over the culture. I reference George Carlin, Charles Barkley and Chris Rock for their social commentary featured on stage and on network television.

In this episode, I address the transition of power to President Joe Biden, the range of emotions and responses to his rise to power. I urge the Left, Right and Center to unify for better crisis management to improve our social, economic, and medical health. I emphasize that there is more in common than different among us. Set aside partisan politics so that we can support each other and compose a comprehensive list of demands from our government who is supported by our taxes.

While it is my custom to attend music events nearly every weekend, that is not an option right now because social gatherings are banned. Well, I came across a few livestreamed music events on Youtube and Twitch tonight. Tens of thousands of people engage in banter and vibe with the music. Its a good way to enjoy music, entertainment and join a group chat all about music and trends.

In this episode, I'll relate my personal experience and observations about the Coronavirus (COVID-19) global outbreak. The reach and extent of the contagious infection has affected everyone and sickened or killed thousands. So it is imperative for us to pay attention to credible sources. Equally important, we must show kindness to one another when we travel to work, pharmacy and grocery stores as needed.
