On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner, Sam and Ivan talk about a bunch of pandemic stuff, including some good news! For the first time since this whole thing started, less people are dying worldwide than were dying a year earlier. And they of course talk politics. Virginia. New Jersey. CRT. BIF. BBB. All the acronyms you could want, and some you probably don't! Oh, and Brandy lost, and Ivan gives some first impressions of his new job.
