Hey guys, welcome to episode 192 of Hillbilly Horror Stories. I'm Jerry. And I'm Tracy. Hope you guys are having a lovely quarantine day.

Oh my gosh, just sure it's beautiful out there, right? Yeah, it is. If you can walk out, you know, in a square out on your little front porch and take a look at it. That's true. We hope you guys are being safe and doing good and just really sad to hear about joke-diffy passing away today. That was a shocker. Yeah, but it was sad. Yeah, considering you just found out literally like Thursday or Friday that he had this. So you guys, I know it's hard to everybody to stay in one spot. And but just try to keep to your old friends.

Yeah, I love cells and love one another and enjoy your family time. Enjoy your social media. It's a good way. It's good time to start using like FaceTime and Zoom and all those other Facebook live. Oh yeah. You can still talk to everybody. You just can't physically get up and go out there. Yeah, it's been fun. I've been seeing a lot of bands go on Facebook live and do some shows, which is awesome. So that's really nice of them to do that. While we're on the subject, just a quick little...

My ex-wife lost her sister a couple of days ago. So just wanted to say, you know, thoughts and prayers out to their family. Yeah, very sad. It's tough time right now. It's tough to lose somebody anytime, but it's really tough during this time because you can't really have proper funerals for people. You can't really, you know, I know in their situation only two people could even be in the hospital with her when she was on life support. And, you know, it's just rough. When you got a pick and choose who can actually spend time with a loved one in some hospitals. I know we were at a friend's house.

And their son had to be rushed to the hospital and they flat-towed her. You can't come. You know, and it's tough. When you can't visit loved ones during a time like this. Yeah. Just say strong guys. We can get through all this.

All right. First of all, thanks to all of our military and civil servants all over the world no matter which country you represent. Thank you guys and gals and dogs for everything that you do to keep us safe in the world.

Yes. God bless you guys for watching over us and keeping us safe. That goes for the doctors, the nurses, EMT, anybody in the medical field. God bless you guys. I know you are so tired and worn out and scared to come to your own house.

You know, I'm fear that you're going to bring this stuff home, but thank you. You're angels on this earth for sure. I also want to throw in because I don't think they get enough credit. The truckers out there. Oh my gosh. Yes. What will we do without them?

You guys and gals are literally working non-stop hours right now. Most of the truck stops are closed. So it's making it even tougher on you guys. But somebody's got to bring these products to fill up these empty shelves with and you guys are doing it.

Doing a great job. I'm sure he rolls out there. Absolutely. Thank you guys for all that. Okay.

This is a struggle for a lot of people. I see it more on Facebook. But this quarantine thing is making people who suffer from depression and stuff even have a harder time.

Sometimes it's just momentary. Sometimes it's a couple of days, but you never really know how something is affecting somebody. Just keep that in mind. If you've got friends or family members that you know kind of struggle, maybe from depression or just day to day life, check up on a more FaceTime.

Send them a Facebook message, phone call them, whatever you need to stay in contact with your friends and family members. Just because we have to social distance. As I saw today on Twitter, there was some confusion over social distancing as far as they said it sometimes that might be sending the wrong message. What we should be saying is physical distancing.

You don't have to stay away from people via the phone or text or anything like that. You can communicate just as often and I would highly encourage it.

But if you're one of those people out there listening and you need to reach out to somebody, we are available. Absolutely.

The full time.

The Suicide Hotline America 1-800-273-8255. And of course, if you're more of a texture, 7-4-1-7-4-1.

Amen.

All right. I'm going to bring this up in the beginning. This was normally something we would probably talk about at the end of the show, but I don't know how many people stick around and listen to our, you know, I tend reviews and stuff like that.

But we gave it enough time to where we feel like there's not really much of an option with restaurants being closed still here in Kentucky.

And here we are into April. There's no doubt that this thing's going to last at least a couple more weeks, which restaurants being closed.
