Hi, there. This is You and Me and Everyone we know, a podcast about making connections during this time of coronavirus isolation.  Right now I’m in self-isolation with my kids. So, I decided that everyday I will make sure to connect to one kind friend or stranger, get a little update on their life, how their dealing with all there is to deal with, and how they’re keeping calm and hopeful.

Yesterday I talked with Kristina. My husband and I met Kristina and her husband Michael when we both enrolled our daughters in daycare. At that point our girls were barely scooting on the floor. Now they’re some of our best friends in our city, and last summer, Michael got an amazing job in Germany. The three of them were in Germany soon after the Minnesota State Fair. The last time I saw Kristina we were eating corn dogs and watching our girls marvel at the baby cows and pigs in the Miracle of Life Barn. 

I miss them. And right now the three of them are in isolation in a small town so far away from their childhood homes. Yesterday when I put out the call on Facebook to see if anyone would come on this podcast with me, Kristina was the first. We jumped on the phone right away.

You and Me and Everyone We Know is an audio diary made by everyday people living through the coronavirus pandemic. In today's episode we talk bands streaming music from the Texas Hill Country, the spiritual connection between an audience and a performer, and freshwater snorkeling. We also talk about how contagious kindness and love can be, and how refugees have so much to teach the world about how to hold onto hope in our worst days.

Thanks for listening! And thank you Angela, Sunny and Marian for connecting with all of us.
