0:00.0	Welcome to PSA Thursday. This is a special weekly bonus segment of the Afford Anything podcast,
0:05.6	in which we talk about how to handle money, work, and life in the middle of a pandemic.
0:09.9	If this is your first time tuning into a PSA Thursday episode, here's what you can expect. First
0:13.8	of all, PSA Thursday is a stripped down bare bones cut to the chase version of our show. These are
0:19.8	much shorter episodes. There's no intro music, no outro music, no sound effects. Well, typically no
0:25.1	sound effects. There will be one in today's episode. If we do guest interviews, then we don't have

1:18.4	sources of funding or alternatives to the PPP, we cover those in a previous PSA Thursday episode.
1:23.4	So you can tune into all of that and check out the whole PSA Thursday archives at

1:32.9	dun-dun-dun, how to stay safe as you begin venturing back outside. The nation is reopening.
1:40.8	Many people are starting to leave their homes again. You might be going back to the office.
1:44.8	You might go to a restaurant. You might get a haircut. So how can you stay safe as you venture
