Hi, this is Josh Marshall, and this is the Josh Marshall podcast.

This is the, this is the second of our

first day doing remote since I guess God it's really one week ago that it was our first day doing a remote work right it feels like everything has changed since they don't

Well that's the thing, right, so just for our listeners, you know, with a plan that we had in the

works for a while, last Wednesday was the first day that we all worked remote, that we

weren't in our two offices in D.C. in Washington. Obviously now things have moved pretty dramatically where the New York area isn't quite on a total lockdown.

certain business categories are closed down.

I guess there's more restricted business activity.

But you can see in the Bay Area at least, you can still go on a run for exercise,

go to the grocery store go to the pharmacy take care of those essential things but you can

also yeah like I said get physical physical activities, stretch your legs.

but it's not as if it's a house arrest situation.

Right, well I guess it's funny.
