    Life In the Time of Quarantine *BONUS EPISODE*
    Jun 11 2020
    In this, our third bonus episode for 2020, Kyle and Daniel talk about what they are learning from the COVID-19 Lockdown. Note that this episode was recorded on April 30, 2020. Since that time there have arisen plenty of issues that Daniel and Kyle would have loved to have mentioned or talked about, including the over-abundance of conspiracy theories and, more importantly, the murder of George Floyd and the worldwide Black Lives Matters protests. As Kyle mentioned at the beginning of the episode, he and Daniel unequivocally state that Black Lives Matter. Daniel especially recommends the And Campaign’s statement for a Christian response to the killings. While two white guys talking about race would need to balanced by minority voices, an episode on racism and faith is something we would love to record in the future.
