A podcast about looking past cancer to see the humanity.

THE SHOW
Time is short. But especially when you have a diagnosis of terminal cancer.
Tom Riley is dying from cancer. But that isn’t stopping him from starting a kickass podcast. Eff Cancer is a collection of dialogues with people navigating serious illness from every direction. Episodes feature deep, direct conversations with Tom’s family, other cancer patients, nurses and doctors who work with serious illness, and the people trying to advance and improve healthcare.
This show explores life, death, helping people, dealing with fear, coping with loss, and more. But these won't be downer discussions. They’ll be filled with laughter as well as honest explorations about what it means to live with serious illness. In Tom’s case that's almost always with humor.
None of us know when our final moment will come. So in the meantime, let’s focus instead on the beauty of now.
Eff Cancer. But embrace life. And, as we sign off every episode:
“Remember I love you.” (RILY)
Tom Riley is living with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. But that's not going to stop him from creating a podcast exploring life, death, dealing with fear, coping with loss, and more. In this introduction to Tom, we learn about where he’s at health-wise: what his cancer levels are like, what he’s eating (or not eating) lately, and most importantly: how he’s feeling.
