My friend Muslim Tom is recovering from the disease that some people believe was leaked from the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Disease at Fort Detrick in Frederick, Maryland. This is the reason why our podcast You Can't Win is delayed. We apologize.

1984: 75th Anniversary
