Welcome to Avon Talks, I’m your host Jim Pabich.

William Faulkner once said “The past is never dead, It’s not even past”…..

When we look at recent events we have the benefit of both having lived through them as well as the capability of looking at them through the objective eyes of the future.

Today, we’re joined by Avon resident Professor Stephan Bullard, a respected scholar whose book “Covid 19: The First Six Months” traces the daily advances and setbacks as they happened.

In this conversation, he brings a clear, grounded perspective on how the crisis unfolded in places like Avon, how it reshaped life across the country, and what its ripple effects look like around the world.

Whether you lived through it on the front lines or felt its weight in quieter ways, Professor Bullard helps us understand what truly happened, what we learned, and how those lessons continue to shape our future.
