Are you interested in stuff? Then you may like this podcast. Host Rudy Fischmann has done lots of interesting things and has a proclivity for befriending even more interesting people. Each episode looks back and looks forward to hopefully make you think a little about being a better human packaged in a decidedly unboring format. Hopefully. Maybe. But the format changes almost every week. Sometimes Rudy is solo and sometimes he’s not. That means epic diatribes, interviews, panel discussions about serious and not so serious stuff. And oh yeah. He has terminal brain cancer so there’s that.

    Three Cancer patients discuss the cancer comedy 50/50 | Going to the with Stef & Amy from the Cancer For Breakfast podcast

    Three Cancer patients discuss the cancer comedy 50/50 | Going to the with Stef & Amy from the Cancer For Breakfast podcast

    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.
