This Is My First Pandemic
Season 1

Description
Recorded early in the COVID-19 pandemic, just after finishing a mandatory 14-day quarantine. Chris reflects on the strangeness of everyone going through their "first pandemic" at once, the lingering anxiety of bringing groceries into the house even after quarantine ends, and how technology has kept the family connected — the kids playing Minecraft with cousins over Discord, his wife on Zoom calls, and his own work continuing as normal.
He mentions two other Good Stuff shows: The 25 Cent, an Apple Arcade podcast he co-hosts with Nick, and Crosstalk, a Patreon-exclusive discussion show with other Good Stuff hosts. He also recommends Jackbox Games' party game packs (Quiplash, Drawful) as a fun way to play with friends and family remotely during lockdown.
