Hello, everybody. Welcome to Health Chatter. And today's show, we are going to be talking with some wonderful, wonderful guests today. And it's about the Community Preventative Services Guide and the task force that put that whole thing together. It's going to be quite interesting. So stay tuned. I will get to everybody in just a second. Welcome back to our listening audience.
We've had Health Chatters had a little bit of a break over the weekend. Thanksgiving holiday, but we have lots of shows coming up. We have shows booked through the end of March. So stay tuned for that. We have a great crew that makes our Health Chatter podcast successful.
Maddie Levine-Wolf, Aaron Collins, Deandra Howard, Matthew Campbell, Sheridan Nygaard, and of course, Barry Baines is our medical advisor. All these people do background research for us. They do the production. They do the marketing. and transcribing. They take care of our website. And Clarence and I, what do we do? We just chat and about health. And it's been a really pleasure.
We'll soon be closing in on the start of our third year with Health Chatter. So thank you all to you, the listening audience. So today's show again is on Community Preventative Services Guide. We've got great people with us. Tom Cockey is really a special colleague. I was talking to Tom right before the show. We figured out we probably have known each other for around 40 years.
He's a great colleague. He is one of a few in the arena. that really bridges the gap between public health and medicine and the medical side of things and has done it on a variety of different topics and community initiatives over the years. I can't begin to describe the great work that he has done and
the insights that he has provided in both of those arenas and is still committed to it this day. He's going to be retiring tomorrow. But if I know Tom, he's going to be linked with this subject for quite a while. So thank you, Tom. You're a special person, special colleague. And I'll let you introduce your colleagues. from out east.
