This is Abby Martin.

And this is Robbie Martin.

Welcome.

So Robbie, how are you doing during this global pandemic that continues now for what the second month now in the U.S.?

I mean, I know it's been going on for a lot longer than that, but the national quarantine and the self-isolation has been going on for over a month now, I think.

Oh, yeah. I mean, especially in California, Gavin Newsom, the governor,

issued shelter and place orders, I believe, the weekend before St. Patrick's Day. So I want to say,

let's see, was it the 15th of March? I can't remember exactly, but yeah, it's been at least a month. I've been home the whole time.

I've only gone out a few times to go shopping. That was a little sketchy, the times that I've

gone out to do that. So, yeah, I mean, I'm definitely getting a little stir crazy being home

this long, but it's not that much

of a change for me and uh i guess i'm lucky in the sense that it's not that much of a change for me

i just am astonished by the way that things are being covered in the media um how new york

is already digging mass graves which i guess we could talk about later.

But I think the shock and the panic has already like worn off for me at this point.

And I don't know why, but it has.

Maybe it's just because my body and my mind are exhausted by being that like anxious and worrying

about things that much all the time.

How are you doing?

Have things been for you?
