About This Podcast

“If Car Talk was about cancer and hosted by two millennial women.”-Stef’s Oncologist’s Husband

“It’s honest, vulnerable, and unexpected.” -Portland Monthly 

Climb in, honey, we’ve got room! Join Amy and Stef as we laugh—or shake our fists—at the stuff only cancer people truly get. The gals put words to living the cancer experience, all while taking care to be gentle with listeners’ tender hearts. Then, it’s relatable letters from fellow cancer people, followed by cool RATS (Recent Advances in Treatments and Science) showcasing promising research that’ll leave you feeling pumped.
