Pandemic comes up in 4 chapters across 4 episodes of The Jonnie Jensen Show, from June 2020 to June 2021.
The arrival of thousands of Scotland football fans in London for the Euro 2020 match against England caused significant public order concerns. While some fans were seen cleaning up rubbish, others were criticized for trashing areas like Trafalgar Square and ignoring pandemic safety protocols. The hosts discuss the "old school" exuberance of the fans and the resulting arrests at various hotels and public spaces.
The episode concludes with a look forward to the host's 47th year, acknowledging that while financial goals were hindered by the 2020 pandemic, his health and family life are thriving. They thank the listeners for joining the wrap-up and encourage them to visit the Team Super Dad website to join the program. The hosts sign off with their signature "Team Super Dad out" catchphrase.
Antivirus Mantras and January 2021 Context
Johnny describes using "antivirus" mantras—such as "I am wise, I am loved, I am successful"—to combat negative internal chatter during the second COVID-19 lockdown. The hosts reflect on the heavy atmosphere of January 2021, including the pandemic and political unrest, emphasizing the need for self-compassion and connection during such times.
Media Detox, Team Super Dad Diversity, Self-Examination
