    The 2020 Season continues and with a rare solo episode of the Pod. Jay comes to us from his bathroom in Philadelphia. No. Really. It has the best sound.

    He checks in from the Throne with a commentary on COVID-19 and how the outbreak has changed all of our lives along with talking about the toll that the outbreak -- and the quarantines -- take on people's mental well-being. Plus, he shouts out to his people in his home state of Michigan, particularly #Detroit, and thanks all the essential workers out there for doing this when no one else will.

    For real tho: #StayYourAssAtHome
