Coming to you from the Hagman Report.com studio, located in the Keystone State, birthplace of a mighty nation. It's your host, Doug Hagman.

Hello and welcome to

Hello and welcome to the Hagman report from Monday, February 24th, 2020.

Doug Hagman is off today, he has another commitment, but he'll be back tomorrow Tuesday.

My name is Peter Barry Chalka.

I'm guest hosting the entire program today for the next two hours.

And I hope you can stay with me for as much of that time as your schedule will permit.

And if you can't access the whole thing right now, well, there are podcasts at Hagman Report live.com and at the Hagman Report YouTube site.

Now, I've got quite a lineup of interesting topics to report on and analyze today which I'll share with you in a minute.

But first, many of you who are regular viewers and listeners to the Hagman report may recognize me, I hope you do,

as I made over 140 appearances on the Hagman Report

as a guest, an interviewer, and a guest host

between early June 2017 and last October 7th 2019.

Now on that program last October

I announced that I'd be taking a bit of a break

for a while and I'm happy to say that today I'm back.

For anyone out there who's new to the program, I'm a veteran investigative journalist and

a medical political analyst.

I usually report on politics, popular culture, media,

and from time to time cutting edge topics,

including alternative medicine, which is a field that I pioneered reporting on

starting in the early 1970s and continuing to this day.
