Today, March 11, 2023 marks the third anniversary of the WHO declaring COVID-19 a global pandemic. We know the impact that this particular coronavirus has had on the world, but questions still remain as to its actual origin. Was it, as Conspiracy discusses, leaked from a lab after being created? And if so, why? Or was it, as Science discusses, the result of animal to human transmission? If so, why hadn’t it happened before now? Whatever you believe, you’ll enjoy our little debate.

Remember, if you enjoyed this discussion about the COVID-19 pandemic, be sure to watch for our new podcast coming out this spring called “Hindsight in 2020” where we dissect and discuss 2020 - the most life-altering and bizarre year in recent history - all episodes with special guests.
