Coming up on today's show:

• McKay Coppins, staff writer at The Atlantic and the author of The Wilderness: Deep Inside the Republican Party's Combative, Contentious, Chaotic Quest to Take Back the White House (Little Brown, 2015), talks about how some Conservatives and Republicans are defying social distancing measures as a political act.

• Listeners share the art projects they're working on through the COVID-19 outbreak: whether they're making do with materials at hand, directly addressing the pandemic or finding a way to take their focus elsewhere.
