That That Don’t Kill Me is a series of non-inspirational, honest and casual conversations about health, illness and disability between two uncourageous young adults who were born #sick. Co-hosts Kendall Ciesemier and Jameson Rich mine their trauma to cover everything from dating when you can’t drink or hooking up when you have scars, to disclosing illness to co-workers, what it’s like to grow up in a hospital, and the day-to-day minutiae of navigating the healthcare system. They talk with writers, comedians, activists, and athletes about their experiences dealing with illness and disability.
