I've got a lot going on right now so I'm slowing the pace of my podcast output.

In this episode, Rudy explains his 5+ year journey to get cancer diagnosis and his early treatment.

You have questions as do lots of other people, we try answering them all. Not really, but hopefully this video gives you some insight and entertains you. You can find the source video by clicking here 

We're not doctors, just cancer patients who take too much interest in cancer stuff, so take all of this for whatever that's worth.  Follow Leanna House on most social media as @thankscancer and check ou the Thanks Cancer! podcast that she hosts with Mimi Hall.

This is the season 1 finale! 

Three terminal cancer patients, including two who have already passed away, discuss their views on death and living while dying. It's not as depressing as it may sound but this is not a conversation for everyone. 

Featuring: Molly Marco- brain cancer, Ilene Kaminsky- breast cancer, and Doug Sparling - Prostate Cancer  

There are musical interludes in this episode which are selections from Rudy's funeral playlist. You can hear all the songs in their entireties on Spotify at:

Happy Holidays!Rudy got the flu for Christmas she's laying low this week and sharing episode 4 from his previous podcast Guys With Cancer. We hope you enjoy it.

So this movie came out in 2011 starring Joseph-Gordon Levitt and Seth Rogen that is a fictionalized retelling of writer Will Reiser's real life struggle with a spinal cancer. Did it do a good job of portraying what it's like to deal with cancer? Is it a good movie? Should you see it? Like cancer itself, the answer is complicated and very dependent upon the person.

I was about to do something completely different with this episode but then I made the mistake of checking my phone right before recording. Hopefully the next episode will be more cheery but at least this one is short.

Rudy's been out of town so he's presenting you with one of his personal favorite episodes from his previous podcast Guys With Cancer. And don't worry... if you don't have cancer, you'll probably still get something from it and the well-intentioned folks who make suggestions. Interestingly, this was recorded just before Covid 19 was a known thing.
