This episode, Andrew and Aidan cover a difficult, but important topic - today we talk about cancer. We explore the many ways cancers have been treated through time, how far our understanding of cancers have come, and why finding the cure to cancer is a lot harder than it sounds. Some promising new research may have the answers we are all looking for.
