The Frederick Scout has partnered with the Frederick Theatre Department to produce QuaranTEEN, a new podcast about teenagers dealing with the COVID-19 epidemic by teenagers dealing with the COVID-19 epidemic. The podcast is produced almost entirely by students recording their lines remotely and editing the final podcast themselves.

In this episode, Aly gets a new job in fast food, but when her best friend’s boyfriend doesn’t recognize her and tries to pick her up at work, she’ll have to decide how break the news to her bestie. In the second story, Daniel has a plan to celebrate his sister’s graduation with fireworks. When he remembers that he left them at the school before the building was closed down, he and his best friend Ethan will have to infiltrate the locked school building and avoid getting caught.
