Today is #selfishsunday and with all the tension surrounding the coronavirus, I asked Tactical Redneck to reach out to his father to get a better perspective on the scale of what he is seeing in this illness versus the media-fueled, absolute mind-losing panic that we are seeing. He agreed to send an email with his thoughts, which I heave read in this podcast. If after listening, you have more questions, send them to me via email - you know my email or use the contact form here. If we get enough questions, I will see about getting him on the air. If we do not, I will gladly email your question to him for answering. Looking to get ready to stay home for a month or so?
