Though COVID-19 has an effect on the nation and world, we know that what's happening here has much more impact. That's why COVID-19: My Story was born.

We'll hear from real people who have had the virus and delve further into their personal experiences.&nbsp; We'll also spend time with experts from here trying to keep you safe.

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/ee078bde-8c37-494e-9f4b-f9587569c452">There's no place that sanitizes like restaurants already should be doing. In that sense, yeah. We were already pretty well set up to handle that type of thing. Yeah. Restaurants, they're always dealing with bacteria and viruses and stuff like that. That wasn't a new aspect to our business.</a>

<b>Special Episode-Dr. Humayun Ashraf</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/397660aa-7f75-4010-ba09-04abe1ae41f4">It is a light at the end of the tunnel, and it's been a very dark tunnel so far. So anything that we can take, we will take.</a>

<b>Episode 15: Two guests-Bob Ratley and Katie Perez</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/1cc3a413-41d8-4272-b1d8-99cda40fb4a7">Well, after about the second&nbsp;day, I got real, real sick. And it was to the point, I could barely breathe. And so, I told her, "I need to get to the hospital." And she asked if I want to go to Wichita or Newton. And I told her, "no, I'll just go here to the Hutch." And so she took me there and it's a blur.</a>

<b>Episode 14 is with USD 308 Superintendent Mike Folks</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/25b334e7-f5ea-45db-a21e-1d443578f1bb">Thinking back nine months ago, when on ... I think it was Friday, March 13th, when the Governor shut schools down, it has been an absolute whirlwind. The fastest and the most challenging nine months that I can ever remember.</a>

<b>Episode 13 is with Pastor Kent Pedersen</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/0d2f9ab9-f305-4b4a-8fa6-f14f6246336b">There's no perfect answers. I just wish more people, during all of this, on the news and places of leadership, I wish more people would just say the words, "I don't know. We're doing the best we can." Let's do the best we can to be respectful of others. I don't know if the mask works or not. I got it. I wore the mask a lot but the reason I wear a mask is to be polite. It's because they're asking us to do it and it doesn't hurt us. It doesn't hurt me to do that.</a>

<b>Episode 12 is with Nursing Home Administrator Rebeka Jones</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/b652e27c-dc7a-4fc7-8293-539abb1b6000">Someone could be just fine, and the next thing, they're in the ER and having complications. But you have to remember those that maybe have infections, they're more prone to infections. They just had surgery. They have COPD.</a>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/e119410a-e0cc-41f3-b369-6be80c275ed6">I had a sister that had COVID and she was in the hospital for eight days, had the COVID pneumonia. She has since been good. She's still recovering. You don't just get over COVID very quickly. Most people don't.</a>

<b>Episode 10 is with ICU Nurse Jon Miller</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/cfff89cd-2ca6-4b87-8e05-47a161413d59">It's no respecter of age or how healthy you were before. The virus has been very opportunistic. And if you have any kind of co-morbidities, either diabetes or high blood pressure, it finds a weakness in some way and can have its effect.</a>&nbsp;

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/5977c715-a50f-49de-8cdd-2d5226651a00">Since that time at the end of September to when we are talking now, there's been 600 cases in the community. So we have equaled our amount for six months in one month.</a>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/4ef2e02c-cfeb-4a69-9846-8d0fc7215ecb">You don't have the energy level. A conversation with your wife or another loved one lasts about one to two minutes, so that takes its toll on you as you are in isolation from everybody for a week.</a>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/11dfda85-80f7-490a-8fe8-beb31907a1cd">I am confident in telling you if we would have even more participation in community testing, we would have less cases in the hospital. We would have less cases in the nursing home. We would catch patient zero earlier and not be dealing with patient 55, 56.</a>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/216ee459-b55d-458b-a14c-eef3f0cda9e1">The cough, the chest pain and of course the fever. The extreme fatigue was what really got me too, I would get up to let's say, make lunch or something. And I felt like I ran a marathon. It felt like the flu times ten.</a>

<b>Episode 5 is with Reno County Epidemiologist Elliot Koester</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/87141264-20ce-4239-81b7-fafa56c8bf22">We're taking a bit of a different approach to the podcast this week, as I had the chance to interview Reno County epidemiologist, Elliot Koester. Here is our conversation...</a>

<b>Episode 4 is with Linda and Tony Ojeda</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/f4e74580-da1e-43c3-ae97-753adb54ce95">On August 29, I had opened a jar of Vicks for Tony and I couldn't smell it. And I thought, uh-oh...</a>

<b>Episode 3 is with Cathy Kilpatrick</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/681d8c7c-9987-4ddb-a013-375e3c2d5f97">Now, I was there for 11 days and of those 11 days, seven of them, I was in ICU and that was not fun. </a>

<b>Episode 2 is with Hutchinson resident Susan Puls.</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/93792258-bf02-427c-823e-968358d705dd">I'm usually very healthy. And the next thing I know, I'm on the floor and the EMT's helped him get me to the testing center.

<b>Episode 1 is with Dr. Rex Degner from Hutchinson Regional Healthcare System.</b>

<a href="https://hutchpost.com/posts/914b38af-8fc5-4ac1-b32d-064c31c08e52">I found out mostly through news sources, commercial news sources, before it started coming out in the professional literature.

December 16, 2020 Morning News

by Glen Grunwald - Eagle Radio Hutchinson Sports Director

Bob Davis is a storyteller - and an outstanding one at that.

As told in "Bob Davis - The Dream is Real" manuscript, "for 48 years, Davis told his stories on a broadcast platform touching nearly every level of competition from high school, to small college, to large university, to minor league, to major league sports. With his distinctive deep voice tinged with passion and emotion, he told a story that made us feel like we were right there.".-&nbsp;

I knew Bob when he was at KAYS radio and was named the voice of the Fort Hays Kansas State College Tigers in 1968 in Hays, Kansas.&nbsp; Fort Hays was renamed Fort Hays State University in the early 70's. Let me clarify, I knew Bob....but he didn't know me.&nbsp; I was a sophomore at Fort Hays assisting various athletic teams as a student trainer and manager but when the Tigers were on the road, I'd listen to Boy on KAYS Radio describe all the action! Little did we know we had a mutual friend.&nbsp; Dennis Franz worked with Bob at KAYS and was my room mate after he returned from Vietnam to Fort Hays to renew his academic studies.&nbsp; Dennis introduced me to radio sports casting in 1985.&nbsp; My other meeting with Bob was at various Kansas Association of Broadcaster meeting trough the years.&nbsp; Our paths have crossed by association with several coaches and athletes in both Hays and Lawrence as well as sharing a couple of KAB and KSHSAA awards.&nbsp; Bob was named the Hod Humiston Award for Excellence in Broadcasting in 1991.&nbsp; I received the award in 2017.&nbsp; Bob won the Oscar Stauffer award for High School Broadcasting twice.&nbsp; I received the same honor this past spring.&nbsp; Doubt I'll win another, but maybe.&nbsp; Bob has an amazing memory which is probably what made him such a great story teller.

I think you will enjoy this podcast.&nbsp; Bob is one of a kind.&nbsp; They don't make broadcasters like Bob anymore.&nbsp; Bob had a way of making you feel like an old friend just out fishing with you telling you a story or two.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Hearing a game with Bob Davis on the call was certain
to entertain.

With his distinctive deep voice tinged with passion and emotion, he told a story that made us feel like we were right there.".-&nbsp;</p><p>I knew Bob when he was at KAYS radio and was named the voice of the Fort Hays Kansas State College Tigers in 1968 in Hays, Kansas.&nbsp; Fort Hays was renamed Fort Hays State University in the early 70's. Let me clarify, I knew Bob....but he didn't know me.&nbsp; I was a sophomore at Fort Hays assisting various athletic teams as a student trainer and manager but when the Tigers were on the road, I'd listen to Boy on KAYS Radio describe all the action! Little did we know we had a mutual friend.&nbsp; Dennis Franz worked with Bob at KAYS and was my room mate after he returned from Vietnam to Fort Hays to renew his academic studies.&nbsp; Dennis introduced me to radio sports casting in 1985.&nbsp; My other meeting with Bob was at various Kansas Association of Broadcaster meeting trough the years.&nbsp; Our paths have crossed by association with several coaches and athletes in both Hays and Lawrence as well as sharing a couple of KAB and KSHSAA awards.&nbsp; Bob was named the Hod Humiston Award for Excellence in Broadcasting in 1991.&nbsp; I received the award in 2017.&nbsp; Bob won the Oscar Stauffer award for High School Broadcasting twice.&nbsp; I received the same honor this past spring.&nbsp; Doubt I'll win another, but maybe.&nbsp; Bob has an amazing memory which is probably what made him such a great story teller.</p><p>I think you will enjoy this podcast.&nbsp; Bob is one of a kind.&nbsp; They don't make broadcasters like Bob anymore.&nbsp; Bob had a way of making you feel like an old friend just out fishing with you telling you a story or two.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>Hearing a game with Bob Davis on the call was certain
to entertain.</p><p>Bob Davis - The Dream is Real will be released on Amazon.com and will also be available for purchase at various Dillon's Stores across Kansas.&nbsp; It is also available on:&nbsp; <a href="http://www.bobdavisthedreamisreal.com">bobdavisthedreamisreal.com</a></p><div><iframe title="Bob Davis - The Dream is Real" height="122" width="100%" style="border: none;" scrolling="no" data-name="pb-iframe-player" src="https://www.podbean.com/media/player/ynnvc-f51cff?from=pb6admin&download=1&version=1&auto=0&share=1&download=1&rtl=0&fonts=Helvetica&skin=1&pfauth=&btn-skin=107"></iframe></div>
