Episodes that we did in the early days, you know, a year or a year and a half ago, we could talk about again and things would be totally different. So before we started recording, we were talking about we did an early episode about homelessness like over a year ago or maybe a year ago.

And if we had if we bring on a new guest or the same guest and we talk about it now in 2024, I'm sure there'd be a lot, you know, there'd be. different things to say. So in that way, I think the fact that public health is like iterative is really exciting for us to kind of dive into and unpack.

And yeah, I think there's just, you know, there's an endless amount of topics that we can experiment with. And I think the fact that this crew is so open to kind of leaning into that and open minded to talking about and learning about and leaning into different areas of public health and kind of stretching all of our understandings is a super cool opportunity to be a part of.

So I'm really grateful for where we have been and I'm excited to see where we go from here.

Yeah, I unfortunately have quite a bit of experience with death and dying in my life. Like Barry, I also professionally am surrounded by it a lot. I worked in research with much older people. They call them the oldest old in literal research. So they're much older than even just like senior citizens. They're 80s, 90s, 100.

And I'm constantly losing participants or talking to participants that are in hospice or losing a loved one. So I'm really surrounded by it a lot in my in my daily life. And then in my personal life, I certainly have been through quite a few losses. I've talked about them on the podcast before, especially in the organ donation episode. So do refer back to that episode if that's interesting to you.

And I would also like to note that organ donation and the conversation that we're having today are going to be very different, but they are obviously linked in a way. And we do have other episodes about death and dying. So check those out if you're interested in this topic. But my personal experience has been different with every death.

So I think it's just interesting as you grow as a person and as you have more life experiences, your experience with death and dying changes a lot, too. And a lot of the death that I... I lost my grandma over COVID, so I was not able to say goodbye. I was not able to see her. It was really, really challenging. We'll definitely talk about COVID later.

I did the research for today's episode, so I know that that's in there. I also know that I learned so much from the research. I didn't go into a lot of detail about... the differences between cultures. And I think that we can talk about that with our own personal experiences here. But I'm just really excited to talk more about it.

The research was really interesting and looking forward to the conversation.
