Episode 67 - Tumour Humour with Miles Jupp

Saison 3 · Épisode 67

mercredi 25 mars 2026 • Durée 52:23

Serious illness is a serious business. That’s why so many of us are determined to raise awareness of the urgent need to fund research to find more effective treatments, and for every patient – no matter where they live – to have access to the best possible care.

But people have told us that, in some circumstances, trying to find something to laugh about in a situation – usually dark humour – can have its place as a coping mechanism.

The podcasts The Dead Sibling Society and The GlioBabes, and books like 'Pear-Shaped' by Adam Blain, and 'A Heart That Works' by actor Rob Delaney all feature a sprinkling of funniness amid the rage and despair. There's even a Comedy Cures Foundation.

We discuss this with our supporter, the actor and comedian Miles Jupp. He explains how putting his meningioma diagnosis in the spotlight during his stand up tour helped both him and others. And podcast co-host Andy says he wishes he'd heard an episode like this when he was first navigating the same diagnosis.

Saison 3 · Épisode 66

jeudi 12 mars 2026 • Durée 31:05

We're delighted to be joined by Dr Scott Arthur MP for this special episode. Dr Arthur put forward a Private Members' Bill for rare cancers and on Thursday 5th March 2026, it went onto the statute books - becoming the Rare Cancers Act.

Listen in to find out more about what motivated a very new MP to get behind this particular cause; how 40 different organisations collaborated to make it a reality - though fate played a part; what happens next and how weekly runs and volunteering aide Scott's wellbeing.

Saison 3 · Épisode 60

mardi 14 janvier 2025 • Durée 30:35

A warm welcome to Let's Talk About Brain Tumours!

After a break since the summer, we're back to bring you interesting and informative conversations with members of the brain tumour community and at The Brain Tumour Charity.

A new production team is now at the helm, so bear with us while we learn the ropes of podcast production. But we're delighted that our volunteer co-hosts remain unchanged: Anna Blyszko, Chandos Green and Andy Tudor.

"On the cusp of change...!" today, Anna and Chandos quiz Anna Jewell and Cameron Miller about how the Less Survivable Cancers Taskforce was set up, what it's achieved and what its latest campaign is about. Then, Andy meets Frankie Davies whose mum Sue's story throws that campaign into sharp relief.

Many thanks to all our guests for taking part in this recording.

Episode 53 - Spotlight on exercise as a form of therapy

Épisode 53

mardi 21 novembre 2023 • Durée 55:11

We talk to Liam Young about how physical fitness contributed to his recovery from treatment for a brain tumour. Liam found that the traditional route of counselling wasn't for him. His perfect form of therapy was with a personal trainer.

At 25 he had never prioritised his health, but after his diagnosis Liam realised how important it was and that led to him embarking on a fitness program which he says helped him to deal with the mental and emotional trauma of his diagnosis.
