Gary, Lyn and Dee discuss current events and politics–a lot of overlap there.

We lead off today with an unhinged Hot Mic segment suggesting you fill out your Census form on-line or the paper one and send it in. It’s all about the money and representation.

We discuss impeachment.  A trial with no evidence and no witnesses, is it really a trial?  The vote to acquit this criminal is set to take place on Wednesday, February 5th.  (The State of the Union on February 4, 2020 should be interesting.)

Have you eaten at Chipotle lately? You may want to re-think patronizing them after listening to this segment. No, they’re not in the E Coli business again.

We give a reason why some companies are dropping out of their main businesses. Doesn’t make sense to us. Watch those generic drugs. Are they good for you? Which country are they coming from?

The Old North End’s transportation plan gets a mention. A visitors center? Scotland is going 100% renewable by when?

A word from science: vaccines work.  The new Corona virus is getting a lot of press.  The flu season in the US has already claimed 8,000 victims.  While you worry about the new virus, let’s not forget the ones already here.  Did you get your flu shot this season?  The best thing you can do to prevent getting ill, besides getting your vaccines #WashYourHands.  Drinking bleach will not prevent you from getting the Corona virus, it will kill you, though.
