Episode 200: Fighting Cancer with Hope

200 episodes! When we started this podcast to bring light to the darkness brought on by the pandemic, we never thought we would be doing it years later and have 200 episodes. We so appreciate our listeners!! And I also want to thank my two co-hosts over the years, Amy and Colleen, for their HUGE contributions to the podcast. This episode is a bit different, it has a theme. All of the stories are about fighting cancer with hope and some amazing things that people are doing to help bring that hope to cancer patients, cancer survivors, and their families. I promise, it is not a downer even though it does deal with cancer. This is dedicated to all of those who have fought the battle against cancer! Come get inspired.

Stop reading. Just dive in blind. The stories this week are pretty amazing, so just go for it. Okay, if you are still reading you obviously are not the fun-loving spontaneous person I though you were, but okay. Here come the spoilers. We have a story about a sanitation worker who has kept some trophies over the years, enough to make a mini museum with a message. Then we will talk elephants and the amazing things that Dr. Paula Kahumbu is doing to save these African giants. Then we will talk about some neuroscience discoveries that may make a big difference in how we look at reforming prisoners. Now that you read this, I hop you will finally just go listen.
