Welcome to The Morning News Podcast for Tuesday, July 21st. We begin with a look at the continued re-opening process following closures due to the Pandemic. We speak with a Professor of Public Health on his thoughts on the timing – and if it's too much, too soon.  Next we look at the early results of COVID-19 vaccine trials in the UK. Global's Europe Correspondent, Redmond Shannon has details on the Oxford University project which is reportedly safe – and induces an ‘immune reaction'.  Then we head stateside for an update on the coronavirus situation, where new cases continue to skyrocket. We speak with Global News Washington Correspondent – Reggie Cecchini.  It marks the end of a tragic story, which has gripped Quebec City for close to two weeks. Global's Mike Armstrong has the latest details on the manhunt which ended yesterday – as authorities found the body of Martin Carpentier.  In these crazy ‘pandemic times', COVID-19 restrictions aren't the only things being ‘lifted' – so are peoples faces, brows and jaws. We speak with a local Facial Surgeon on the bump in business she's seen in the past few months.  And finally….These aren't your “grand-daddy's” videogames.  We escape ‘reality' with a trip to Southcentre Mall's new “VRKADE”.  

Panda is still away on a sooper-secret acting mission so Dropbear —left to his own devices— invites Luke Saber over to talk about life, the universe, and everything ... particularly video games and his most secret (not anymore) barbecue secrets and baking bacon. What else do you need to know? Dropbear has since stolen the secret and is including it in his secret Not-Really-That-Vegetarian Vegetarian Chilli recipe. Become a supporter on Patreon and DB will send you the recipe and maybe even a personalized video.
