With the crew and cast of Sudbury Politics locked down in self-isolation, Jeff and Richard talk Covid-19 - its impact on local, provincial and federal politics. Reminiscing about SARS-stock and drinking Corona's over video chat, the show explores how deep the pandemic will affect Sudbury.

Jeff is newly returned from the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) conference where one Sudburian contracted the novel coronavirus. Richard is a dad of two elementary school-age kids who don't have school until the 5th of April. From hoarding toilet paper to a spike in bidet-related stocks, two out of three hosts explore the impact of the outbreak on politics and the economy.
