Speaker 2: people there. I had no clue. I had no clue.

19
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 2: It was the best kept secret. My husband Alex really

20
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 2: did a fantastic kick ass job with our friend Mikey

21
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 2: Russo in putting this this party together.

22
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 4: It was a rager.

23
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 2: Oh it was, well, what happened to that party? And

24
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 2: we know pretty much for a fact what happened at

25
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 2: that party, Samuel, Okay, if we talk about this, oh

26
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: yes please, Okay. Was a lot of us got COVID.

27
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: A lot of us. Out of the fifteen people who

28
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 2: worked for this show, ten of us head COVID from

29
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 2: that party. Actually, Danielle, can we talk about it, yeah,

30
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 2: daniel Danielle had COVID before the party.

31
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

32
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: So I came back from a trip with COVID, was positive,

33
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: wound up not coming in and didn't go to the

34
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: party because I was afraid that I was going to

35
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 1: get blamed for sparating COVID. So I didn't go to

36
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: the party.

37
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 2: You should have come, because we hadn't anyway we had

38
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: of course, you can't see it, so we didn't know

39
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 2: at the time there was COVID going around, but it

40
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 2: was massive, and we're finding out from a lot of

41
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 2: the guests that were there they got it too. Look,

42
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 2: you know, and it's silly to play that game where

43
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 2: you know this person got it because of that person,

44
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 2: or I got it. It's a part we don't one

45
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 2: hundred percent know anytime someone has COVID or you get

46
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,399
Speaker 2: COVID where it comes from or why we're pretty dard.

47
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 2: Sure a lot of it happened at that party. I

48
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 2: found out yesterday. I found it every day. I find

49
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 2: out every day from friends. Oh, we didn't want to

50
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 2: say anything in case you didn't get it. I know

51
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 2: what we all had it. I had it. I was home,

52
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,240

Speaker 1: Scary Now, Diana wasn't there, so she didn't. She had

66
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: something else that night, so she didn't come.

67
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 2: To the book. She didn't come to the super spread,

68
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 2: so we all, we all, most of us had it.

69
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 2: It was just it was insane.

70
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 3: It was like wildfire. I have never and it was

71
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 3: such a good reminder too, like, yes, the pandemic is

72
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 3: over and all of that, but this stuff still spreads

73
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 3: really quickly. I mean, I've never seen something like that

74
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 3: in my lifetime, ripped through a little population like that,

75
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 3: and everyone trying to hide it like it's just it's

76
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 3: a respiratory virus, an d from a crack or not.

77
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: And if you have, if you are like you have

78
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 2: the political stick up your ass and don't want to

79
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: talk about it because you think it's just a cold,

80
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: well okay, maybe it was. I mean it's a flu.

81
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: It's a cold. It's what it is. Right, We're not

82
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 2: saying it's anything different, but it is. And we all

83
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: got it, and we proof positive we got it. And

84
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 2: you know what, if you start getting I'm blocking people,

85
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 2: lifting right on, go f yourself. This thing is real.

86
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 2: And we some of us got really really sick. And

87
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 2: it really was COVID.

88
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 3: It was like something out of a science fiction movie

89
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 3: like Bam and the Whole Party. I mean, thank god,

90
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 3: it wasn't a bola. It was this and we know

91
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 3: what we're doing, but it was like, wow, watching how

92
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 3: quickly that thing moved.

93
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 2: Was fascinated and and and and that's it. And I

94
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: mean we can continue that, but I mean we got it.

95
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 2: We are over it. And that's it's it's what it is.

96
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: It's a way of life. Like what's that, Danielle.

97
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: We were saying that even during the height of the pandemic,

98
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: it had not affected this show as much as it

99
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: did this time, which is crazy.

100
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 5: Well, I'm still never had it.

101
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 3: We think your patient zero, he comes into your hacking

102
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 3: and gagon and then ten days later we'll send us

103
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 3: a test, like I'm gonna.

104
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 2: Time this time around. I tested twice.

105
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 5: I never had any symbols.

106
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: Your tests were they didn't really look like real tests.

107
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: We're wondering where you got that from.

108
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I bought it.

109
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 5: At the same pharmacy that everyone else buys theares at.

110
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 5: It's just I bought the one from the counter. Then

111
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 5: yells trying to say that's a cardboard cutout. Johnny's like,

112
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 5: I want real time. I want to see the swab

113

00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 2: Okay, we're moving on. This is not too scary, never

116
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 2: against COVID check. I'm just saying it's real. It happened

117
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 2: to us, and you know, some of us missed a

118
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 2: few days here and there, and uh, maybe someone has

119
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 2: a resurgence of it. You know, I don't know. I'm

120
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 2: not gonna say, but it's here. And I will tell

121
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 2: you though in our building, a lot of people that

122
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,320

123
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 2: There's a lot of it's going around.

124
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 4: People in my circles, you know, outside of work that

125
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 4: ended up getting sick, that had no connection with us.

126
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 4: For that party, it must have just been this massive

127
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 4: wave that for whatever reason, there's other news in the headlines,

128
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 4: did not make it into the into the media exactly.

129
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 2: But I will say this, unless you've lost a loved

130
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 2: one because of COVID or complications thereof it's a different thing.

144
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 2: those people who are going to make people feel like

00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 2: But people, but I've noticed that, you know, interested in

157
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 2: the conversation. Some people just get so mad that you

158
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 2: even think that COVID exists. They get mad at you

159
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 2: you're an idiot. Just I didn't want you to just

160
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 2: understand that. We all understand COVID is a thing. You're

161
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 2: listening to a show that is COVID full. We are

162
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 2: the proof people, so I'll start giving us your theories.

163
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 2: You're not a scientist. You think you know it all

164
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 2: because you read something on x Twitter whatever the hell

165
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 2: it is. No, you don't know. Crap, Get out of here.

166
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 2: We were sick and we're doing okay, but I will

167
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: say we're not. I don't think we treat COVID like

168
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: we used to. It's like, okay, got it done, Okay,

169
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 2: move on. But I wanted you to know where we

170
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 2: were and why we weren't here, and you know there's

171
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 2: that in other locations exactly what Nate, what.

172
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 4: It's you know? So I got it. I think I

173
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 4: was the last one in our work circle here to

174
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 4: get it. And I went to the grocery store to

175
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 4: get groceries, you know, and I'm wearing a mask because

176
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 4: I'm like, all right, I'm going to be home for

177
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 4: the next few days. And it's it's sad now that

178
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 4: it's reversed, like I was wearing a mask and people

179
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 4: were looking at me like I had two heads, and I'm.

180
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 5: Like, I'm trying to do the right thing here.

181
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 4: Where before if you didn't wear a mask, people looked

182
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 4: at you like you had two heads. So just be smart.

183
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 4: People don't get other people sick. Seriously, it's it's so

184
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 4: stupid that we have to have a conversation about how

185
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 4: we feel.

186
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: About things, bread, kindness, not.

187
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 2: COVID exactly, coronavirus. No one calls it that anymore. It

188
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 2: gives it more flavor. And the COVID nineteen nineteen is

189
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 2: from twenty nineteen.

190
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 4: That's five years ago.

191
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 3: People, Oh, we got home, it's twenty four, and here.

192
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 2: COVID twenty four.

193
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 4: Anyway,
