Episode Notes

This week, a squabble in the Slate offices: Deputy Editor Lowen Liu explains why he’s so bad about taking sick days and shows up to the office, even when a serious epidemic is dominating the news. But first, Slate’s culture editor Forrest Wickman lays out why he desperately wants his co-workers to go home when they show symptoms of a cold or flu. After that, Man Up host Aymann Ismail talks to Mieke Beth Thomeer, associate professor of sociology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, about why men in particular are so bad at prioritizing their own health—and, sometimes, the health of the people around them.
