For the May round of Life-Sparring Shadowboxing, I spare you the usual signing. I usually interpret a loneliness-themed song, but this time there is a special feature guest. No loneliness and no singing! You wonder, who that surprising guest is? Well, nobody other than The Wife. Usually, she contributes to the show through constructive or not so constructive criticism, but this time she joins me on the mic.

In “What’s On and Poppin’” we recount our experience with moderate side-effects taking the BioNTech - Pfizer - Fosun vaccination and share the data from our health wearables.

I also talk about the ultra-light T8 running underwear and shorts, I recently got.

In "Food for Thought", the book segment of the Podcast, we are back on the topic of COVID-19, as the book I just finished reading is Michael Lewis’ brand new book “The Premonition: A Pandemic Story”.

This spring, public health officials have been laser-focused on getting more Americans vaccinated against COVID-19. So why do racial disparities persist around vaccination?

Guest: Mary T. Bassett, director of the François Xavier Bagnoud Center for Health and Human Rights at Harvard University.

An impressive accomplishment by WNBA star, Chiney Ogwumike leads me to a conclusion on paying college athletes once and for all. Why do some defenders of 'athletics-for-profit' reject educational requirements? Would Aldon Smith make a good Seahawk pass rusher?
