The Essential Lighter Side: The NYC Subway

Helen is an MTA Conductor for the NYC Subway system, an organization that is losing 3-people per day to Covid-19. She and her co-workers requested masks in January and were denied. 50 of her fellow MTA workers died before masks were distributed.
We talked about fun things too, but I implore you to listen to Helen's story and remember that what you are seeing on the news is lacking in one thing: humanity.
Please share.

The Essential Lighter Side: Actor Adam Pally

Adam Pally has been in a lot of things (Happy Endings, The Mindy Project, The Mandalorian,The Main Event, Sonic the Hedgehog, Champaign, ILL,so many more) Right now, however, the only thing Adam Pally is in is his basement, where his family banished him after he got the sniffles. (HE'S OKAY!)

We talked about the f*cking Knicks, Adam's career, and gave some hot takes you won't want to miss.

Adam wrote an amazing article about parenting during the quarantine. You should read it.
Please continue to spread the word! This is a breather episode in between shows about essential employees/first responders/the helpers. Adam is a real mensch for doing it and helping get these stories out.
Insanely terrific music at the end of the show is by Remember Jones.
