For two indomitable women, Hilde Fålun Strøm and Sunniva Sorby, this was their extreme COVID reality. They have spent 16 months—10,000 hours—isolated together in the high Arctic in the 76th parallel in the world’s northernmost archipelago, Svalbard, Norway. Surrounded by polar bears and total darkness, they are staying in a remote trapper’s hut with no electricity or running water, and the nearest sign of civilization is 140 km away.

The program, which launched last year, hopes to examine the relationship between PD and genetics. It provides free genetic testing for people diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease as well as a free consultation with a genetic counselor to review the results of the test. Typically, genetic tests are expensive and not covered by insurance, and often do not include a counseling component to explain the results.

Newman is a perfect character in so many ways. He’s funny, interacts often with the other characters, gets upset over his job as a mail carrier, and loves coming up with schemes as much as George and Kramer do.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon follows the story of Ichiban Kasuga, a dedicated Yakuza who takes the fall for a crime he didn’t commit, only to emerge from prison years later in a world he scarcely recognizes.
