Hey everybody. So the season of heavyweight isn't due to start until the fall but we wanted to offer just a little check-in.

Production on the show has slowed to pretty much a standstill. Because of the

coronavirus, I haven't been able to go out and talk to people.

Everyone's keeping pretty much to themselves as they should be and generally speaking even on the phone people just haven't been as interested in

revisiting and talking about the past at the moment and everybody's just

you know more concerned about the present moment and the future.

So my producers Kalele Holt and Stevie Lane, are at home in Brooklyn and I'm with my

wife family and our three-year-old Augie in Minnesota. But every day Stevie and Kalela and I check in and we try to figure out what we should be doing at this moment, you know, in terms of work and also in terms of life.

And a few days ago, even though we were apart, we decided to record the day that we were having and share that day with each other.

I was going to get some groceries with Aie and Kalea was going to take a

walk to get a prescription filled. Stevie was trying to figure out whether she'd keep a blind

date that was weeks in the making. She'd never been on a blind date before.

Clea and Stevie both checked in with their moms for little advice and mostly just for some

comfort. Looking back on that day now, it already feels like an eternity ago even though it wasn't

long ago at all. Things are changing so quickly and everyday feels like a new

reality. So when we recorded this bars and restaurants were still open and school was still in session.

But anyway, this was that day, only a few days ago, feels like an eternity.

We shared it with each other, to less alone and now we're sharing it

with you guys and we hope it makes you feel less alone too. Stevie.
