We mourn the passing of Carl Reiner, but quickly switch to wondering how our 20-something selves would have reacted to the CoronaVirus. Would we read the news, or even care about Grandma? If we're honest, would we be in bars and on the beach just like the young people of today? Also, the pariahs of the #MeToo movement - ala Louis CK, Matt Lauer, Garrison Keillor - Once fallen from prominence, can one regain the public's regard? On that note; Bob reflects on a studio visit by Loni...

It took Ed Kelly and Zip a half a second to guess the slightly morbid field trip that Bob and Lisa took today. Hint: Barre, VT.
