Tops Only
This is no longer an experiment! The Gang of Four returns once more to do a shorter podcast episode consisting only of the Top of Mind segment. Attempting discipline in maintaining order and structure proves to be difficult to sustain but somehow total chaos is avoided… barely.
The Top of John’s mind is occupied by positive thoughts that Donald Trump will turn out to be a one term President but negative thoughts about what that means. Peg is too worried about jinxing the outcome to even speculate on Trump as a one and done executive. Shelly sees the silver lining emerging from the Trump cloud as the raised awareness of racial injustice. John believes that Trump will be remembered as the President who exemplified the coming of age of Twitter. Jim thinks Trump will be remembered as the Herbert Hoover of the pandemic. Peggy is in a somber state of mind because the escalating number of pandemic cases. Shelly is concerned because her friend Janine was recently exposed to someone who has tested positive. Jim is the voice of sunny optimism, wishing a happy 81st birthday to Eddie Holland, part of the legendary Motown songwriting and producing triumvirate, Holland-Dozier-Holland.
