Summary
Jen talks about how she’s realizing that the reason she isn’t funny lately is because she’s been in quarantine during a pandemic and has had no human contact. She talks about her mom taking comfort in the Book of Revelations, leaving California because of earthquakes, how the Black Death in the Middle Ages brought the Renaissance but we are too stupid to have anything good come from Covid-19, and a fun listener email about a “Live Laugh Love” wedding.
