(We recorded this episode before things really got flipped upside down in the past few days with the coronavirus. If you still want to "go out and cultivate," as we suggested at the end of the show, take all the precautions! We'll be back soon with another episode. Stay safe, be kind, and look after your neighbors, your loved ones, and yourself.)
