Welcome back to plenary session. In today's episode, we have an On the Road edition. I'm in Portland,

Oregon, and I talk to Leslie Beinen from PSU-O-HSU School of Public Health. And you're going to like this

discussion. We cover a lot of fascinating topics, both about COVID-19 and the broader culture of the

Academy of Scientific Publication and about the broader culture at this moment. But before I get to the

interview, I got to do some housekeeping because I've been getting so many different emails and

people have lots of questions. So here are my tips. One question I frequently get, do you have

a video of this for, say, for instance, John Yonidi's lecture that people may have heard on this

podcast. And the answer is, go to YouTube. If you're looking for the visual of something I'm talking

about, go to YouTube because some of these interviews are being put out as videos. Some of them have

screenshots and the John Yonidi's lectures available on YouTube as a video so you can see what he's

talking about. That's the first place I

would look. The next thing, where can you get more content? Well, the places I would refer you to

are number one. I don't know if I've made a plug for this on this show yet, but the VPZD show.

The VPZD show is a weekly news show. It's all you need to know in medical news, and it's where

Zubidimani and I discuss the week's issues from health care policy, COVID-19. It's a lively

discussion. Hopefully you have a laugh. That's that podcast. It's very popular. Go check it out

if you haven't checked it out already. The other place I'll refer you to is substack. I have really enjoyed substack. It's a good place to write. And I have a substack, Vinay Prasad, observations and thoughts. And you should subscribe and check it out. You can get free emails. You can be a paying subscriber, whatever you prefer.

And ultimately, I think all of the content is transitioned to be outside of a paywall, so you should be able to see it.

The other thing, we're still backed on Patreon.

You can go there, but if you prefer to do it on substack, I don't blame you.

It's sort of an easier interface for me too, so you could do that instead.

I think that's it. Those are the updates. And plenary session podcast at gmail.com, you know, email us.
