The numbers keep getting bigger.  We know have an international audience flying in.  Why continuous improvement is the show\u2019s driving force. 2026 is going to be the best show ever.  The importance of community, collaboration, and diversity in podiatry education.  Additional Show Notes available at the Podiatry Legends Podcast website.  \u201cThe speaker lineup is so strong that people genuinely can\u2019t choose what to do.\u201d - Tony Gavin.
