0:00.0 | Well, no distancing here. We're all together. I'm in New York. Joe Bartlett's in North Carolina. Somebody else is in Quebec. Joe Bartlett, are you there? |
0:13.9 | Yes, I'm in South Carolina, just a little farther away from you. All right. Well, say hello to Opie and Aunt B for us. |
0:21.6 | Yeah. And what everybody right now in New York thinks, I wish I were down there because I'd be safe. How safe is it down there? |
0:28.9 | Well, I think they're really bracing for what is happening in New York now. New York is really the lead on this one. And it's probably going to happen down here in another month or so. |
0:42.0 | Very, very deserted. Not a lot of people on the roads. A lot of the stores are closed. |
0:46.8 | You know, they're just bracing for a storm here. And the thing is, the nice thing about being down here, you do have a little extra space, kind of hard to social distance in Manhattan. |
0:51.8 | Yeah. Hey, by the way, don't watch Mayor de Blasio. He was on one of the |

1:40.2 | And then some believe the drop will be rapid. It'll drop rapidly thanks to the social distancing. |
1:47.2 | There's other places, Florida, Texas, other places where they're worried about getting hit very |
1:52.2 | hard with this stuff. One of the problems, and this is where you see a failure of leadership |
1:57.4 | with the mayor, and the governor should jump in on this. If you've seen |
2:02.1 | these videos, the subways are very crowded again. The cars are packed again. This is how it's |
2:06.6 | going to spread. When all this started, very few people were taking the trains. So the trains |
