The Juice with Jeff #39: The Transition to Pandemic Episode

On this episode of the podcast, Cheri Lyon and I have a really informal conversation about several topics:  An awesome dinner we had at Cool Basil Restaurant in Clive, IA; my thoughts on how Covid-19 has been declared a pandemic and just became widespread in the community on the night we recorded this podcast; spring being around the corner, my dogs and Cheri's chickens, any concerts planned, the two photo shoots I did with me dressed up in my Mister Rogers wardrobe (complete with red cardigan sweater and Sperry Top Sider laced shoes), and an abbreviated version of my story about how I got intensely into Mister Rogers Neighborhood and everything related to Fred Rogers o.b.m.

 

To wrap up the chat, I also performed about a dozen more of my voice impersonations for Cheri. This episode of the podcast is historic because it marks the transition to the Covid-19 pandemic, and it would be the last time I'd be able to have these podcasts produced/recorded in person for a 13 month period. To emphasize the transition that was taking place with the pandemic and uncertainty we would be dealing with in our lives, I have kept this episode almost totally raw and unfiltered as it was recorded that night, with the exception of adding the funding credits at the beginning and reducing the length of my monologue to Cheri about Mister Rogers.

 

This episode of the podcast was recorded on March 12, 2020, and it lasts for around 20 minutes. As is the case with all of the "The Juice with Jeff" podcasts, funding for this podcast is provided by Realty With Ahart and RandomKid. Enjoy!!
