[00:00:28 ] Brett: Yep, there you go.


[00:00:29 ] Jeff’s COVID Experience



[00:00:29 ] Jeff: I’m, I’m getting over Covid. Uh, and I’m good. And I’m good.


[00:00:33 ] Brett: was so well timed.


[00:00:35 ] Jeff: Yeah, I


[00:00:35 ] Brett: not even, I’m not even gonna edit out the cough. That was just


[00:00:38 ] Jeff: No, it’s fine. It’s, it’s true. What’s true is what’s true, is true. You know, can’t hide the truth.


[00:00:44 ] Brett: So, how did you get COVID?


[00:00:46 ] Jeff: I don’t know. Transmission, uh,


[00:00:49 ] Brett: Aerosols.


[00:00:51 ] Jeff: aerosols, who knows? My groceries. Probably it was my groceries. I stopped wiping them off and I knew I shouldn’t stop wiping ’em off. Um, I [00:01:00 ] don’t know. I was traveling.


[00:01:01 ] Jeff: I don’t know.


[00:01:01 ] Brett: Yeah, traveling.


[00:01:03 ] Jeff: Yeah, I don’t know.


[00:01:04 ] Jeff: I was, I mean, I helped my, helped my, uh, firstborn move into his dorm. So I was around a lot of, a lot of people


[00:01:12 ] Jeff: that weekend. That might’ve been it.


[00:01:14 ] Jeff: That might’ve been it.


[00:01:15 ] Brett: I got home from Maxstock and got an email that someone at Maxstock reported being, testing positive for COVID.


[00:01:24 ] Jeff: It’s really, I mean, from what I understand, this strain is super contagious. Like so many people I know have It


[00:01:30 ] Jeff: It can, it really can still kick your


[00:01:32 ] Brett: yeah, totally.


[00:01:33 ] Masking and Public Perception



[00:01:33 ] Brett: And, and we’ve kind of, we’ve stopped taking precautions. Like even liberals have mostly stopped wearing masks except for people who are immunocompromised and are mad at everyone else for not wearing masks. But, um, yeah, it’s kind of, I don’t, I get it. I don’t want to wear a mask anymore.


[00:01:56 ] Brett: Like I want it to just be over, but it’s really not.


[00:01:59 ] Jeff: I, [00:02:00 ] for me, when I put them on, like, I, um, it just triggers so many fucking bad memories. And, and so I, I, as soon as I feel the heat of my breath in a mask, I’m just like, God damn it. I mean, I was a masked person to the end and, and M, I mean, I masked, I had to go one place and it was a big box store. I mean, it was better than a big box store.


[00:02:19 ] Jeff: It was Fleet Farm, but I, and that place is always like, A, empty and gigantic. And I was, I think on the end of my I think I was, I probably was past being contagious, but anyway, I was careful. I wore a mask.


[00:02:32 ] Fleet Farm Adventures



[00:02:32 ] Jeff: But because I was at Fleet Farm, which is like, it’s a demographic. I mean, I’m part of the demographic


[00:02:38 ] Jeff: for sure.


[00:02:39 ] Brett: they are big Trump supporters. it’s a


[00:02:41 ] Jeff: yeah, yeah, yeah. And, and, and yeah, lots of bubble trucks in the, in the, uh, in the parking lot. But I knew, cause I,


[00:02:48 ] Jeff: I,



[00:02:49 ] Brett: of camo


[00:02:49 ] Jeff: I remember wearing, um, I remember wearing a mask early days to Fleet Farm, because I am part of the Fleet Farm demographic. My son actually made a Fleet Farm out of clay [00:03:00 ] in eighth grade. Um, but like, I, I remember going into Fleet Farm early days before everyone was wearing masks, but when like, when the liberals were wearing masks.


[00:03:10 ] Jeff: And I, I, I remember just walking in feeling like I was ready to fight. I was just like, I was feeling defensive. I was like, why are you fucking looking at me? I’m wearing a mask, motherfucker. And I went in, I went in this time, no reason to believe that’s, that people were thinking anything about me wearing a mask, but I went in the same way.


[00:03:27 ] Jeff: I’m like, you want me to fucking cough on you? Like, I literally had like an attitude


[00:03:31 ] Brett: No, I, I have, I have, I have literally done that exact same thing at the exact same store.


[00:03:37 ] Jeff: yeah, yeah,


[00:03:38 ] Jeff: yeah, you gotta have, I bet you have a great fleet farm in


[00:03:40 ] Jeff: Winona,


[00:03:40 ] Brett: a fleet farm. I could walk to my fleet farm. It’s so


[00:03:44 ] Jeff: Oh, that’s like, let’s live in a dream.


[00:03:47 ] Brett: um, the, uh, the big, big news about our local fleet farm was Ivanka Trump showed up to pretend like she was of the people


[00:03:59 ] Jef
