Hi, this is Nicholas Webb and welcome to another episode of the Healthcare Cure podcast. Today I have the great honor of being able to share this podcast with not just Dr. Power, but also my entire team for the center from innovation from WesternU, you know, they've been instrumental in supporting this incredible mission and helping us move all of this forward all the way from finding cast members to managing the logistics, to locations. You know, it's hard to believe just how much is involved when you make a commitment to doing something like this and without their contributions, certainly this couldn't have happened. I also love the fact that my CFI team is really committed to this mission, the mission of improving the quality and safety of patient care. The mission of really providing excellence in higher education in the area of Health Sciences, where we're providing opportunities to share the latest and greatest technologies with students and to really learn and collaborate from our students. So it's been an incredible journey. And this couldn't have happened without the contribution of this incredible team. So today, I'd like to start off by having everyone introduce themselves and their role specifically on the Fixing Healthcare team. Although this is not their full time job, they actually have a job at the center. But they've all taken on a unique and special role in supporting this film. So I think I'd like to start with Miary, Miary is the director for the Center for Innovation. And has done an incredible job of bringing amazing people to this story and bringing his ownmessage to the story as well. So Miary. 

Yes. Good morning, everyone. It is my pleasure to be on this podcast this morning. And it has been a really interesting journey as we embarked on creating this documentary and working with Ray and Nick. And given the fact that I've been in healthcare education for decades, this has been, I think instrumental in sending the message because the the humanist message, and the preventive care message, I believe, has not been is a story that has not been told enough. So it has been my greatest privilege to participate in this endeavor that is I think is meaningful and will be impactful.

Thank you so much, Miary. Jesse, would you like to introduce yourself?

Yes, thank you, Nick. I'm Jesse. I oversee legal compliance and budget management for the film. I also assist a little bit with distribution whether it be video on demand platforms, film festivals, theatrical releases, or any other types of promotion. So it's definitely been a for me, I've learned a lot about the film industry as a whole, and also how much it takes to make a film. So that kind of surprised me. It's not just a camera and a microphone and a couple of cast members, there's a lot more logistics that go into the back end. So it's definitely been a journey and an exciting one for me. 

Thanks, Jesse. And, Chris, you've had an incredible role. We've been driving you crazy chasing down cast members, you know, the problem is, is that when you want the voice of really, really cool people, where do you start, you know that there's so many amazing people that believe in the mission of re establishing the relationship with the caregiver and the and the patient. There are people that know that healthcare is broken, they want a voice. And I think that the thing that Ray and I are most proud of is the fact that we're giving really, really smart people a voice to talk about how we might be able to actually do this to actually fix healthcare. So Chris, share with us your journey and in chasing down cast members.
