The one thing I would say to women is this, no one's coming to save you. So if you think that the president or the governor or your state legislator is coming to save you, they're not. But they will if you make them. This special health-focused episode of IMO is brought to you by Cologuard, a non-invasive colon cancer screening test.
Hey, Mish. Hey, Craig Robinson. Today's topic is one that's near and dear to me. Now, one of the reasons why I'm excited about, one of the many reasons I'm excited about our platform IMO is that we really get to talk about whole array of issues that we both care about.

Um, uh, but let's introduce, let's get, let's get Sharon in on the, on the conversation.
