This week in virology, the podcast about viruses, the kind that make you sick.

From ASV 2022 in Madison, Wisconsin, this is TWIV, this week in virology, Episode 920,

recorded on July 18, 2022. I'm Vincent Racken Yellow and you're listening to the podcast

all about viruses. Joining me today here in Madison, Rich Condit.

Hello, Vincent. Hi everybody. I don't know what the weather here is beautiful. It's like

it's like 80 degrees or something like that and beautiful sunny skies. It's been a beautiful

couple of days. I do need to tell you that it's 94 degrees in Austin. I headed for 103 and as I

looked down on the next two weeks, I don't see a forecast. Two weeks from now, it's going to be 99.

Other than that, it's 100 degrees every day. Climate change, dudes.

Also joining me here in Madison, Brienne Barker. Hi everyone. It's great to be here.

Very nice. Thanks. Last time we were here, it was really hot. So thanks for the weather and

also joining me in Madison, Kathy Spindler. Hi everybody.

Someone told me the other day they were going to try and have it be 82 for me.

But Brienne and I just looked at it's 84. So it's close. But I also want to take this opportunity

for the Twiiv audience at home that might not know it. But Vincent was given a very prestigious

award the first day here. The William and Patricia, Wolfgang and Patricia Yachtwick

Distinguished Service Award for the American Society for Virology. And also we have

extra celebrity person in our midst and that's Brienne Barker who's going to be on

Jeopardy next Wednesday July 27. So congratulations to both Vincent and Brienne. That's July 27 for

Jeopardy. Thank you very much. So we have two guests for you today to learn some science
