Health & Pop Culture News May 05, 2020

Show notes

Sweden isn't taking precautions like most other countries and has resisted lockdown restrictions to stop the Coronavirus outbreak. We discuss why Sweden is accused of dangerously pursuing “herd immunity” and what that means for the people who live there. In lighter pop culture news… we discuss how movie and tv casts (Parks & Rec, Goonies, That Thing You Do!) are reuniting to do new zoom episodes or recreations of their famous work — and what casts we wish would reunite. We also come to the realization that Val Kilmer might be our favorite character actor, he is the Iceman! *GROSS ANATOMY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT.

Josh Homme is a singer, songwriter, producer and founding member of the bands Queens of the Stone Age and Eagles of Death Metal. So... why would Josh agree to be on our show? The truth is, Dr. Cohen and Josh met at a hospital over ten years ago and have kept in touch ever since. We talk about how they first met and get into movies, tv, music, fatherhood and so much more. NOTE: Josh was nice enough to call-in so we could do a Zoom interview while Los Angeles is still under quarantine lock down.
