Several years ago Craig was told that had a cancer that starts in the lymphocytes, white blood cells that form part of the body's immune system. MacT continues to live life to the fullest and just wrapped up a one year term as an assistant coach with the St. Louis Blues.

BRYN and DAVE
Just a couple of sportscasters from Canada who’ve dealt with cancer, beaten it back and now push forward living the best life possible. They can’t say it’s been easy, because it hasn’t been. But they’ve kept a great attitude and now continue to surge along doing things they love- including talking about sports.

Bryn lost his whole stomach to cancer while Dave dealt with throat cancer. But here they are… both trying to do something positive, to shine a light on the sports people who’ve taken on cancer, getting right back to a regular lifestyle.

We both want this podcast to be where you see hope, positivity and many more things.

WHY THIS PODCAST?
We recognize not every cancer story has a happy ending, but the goal of the podcast is to highlight the inspiring stories of athletes, sports executives and media personalities who have faced and beaten cancer, or are continuing the fight. We believe that by sharing these stories, we can provide hope and inspiration to those who have been affected by this disease.
