About this listen

A Wondery original podcast so compelling it was reimagined for TV starring Michelle Williams, Jenny Slate, Sissy Spacek, and more… When Molly's diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer, she decides to do something bold: she leaves her unhappy marriage and embarks on a series of sexual adventures to help her feel alive. She shares the funniest and most touching details with her closest friend, host Nikki Boyer. As they peel back the layers, we learn that Molly isn’t just grappling with breast cancer: she's also dealing with some trauma from her past. Along the journey, the friends explore bigger themes that affect us all -- like healing, forgiveness and what do we do with the time we have left.

    Molly and Nikki are best friends, and they can laugh about anything — even cancer. They call it “gallows humor.” When Molly receives her diagnosis, she begins her sexual exploration by learning how to take a different kind of “selfie.” And she lets a massage go all the way.

    Molly is ready to start dating in the real world. She’s balancing a life of extremes: harsh cancer treatments one moment, meeting with a new guy the next. Her first dates feel surprisingly like high school — including making out in the back seat of a car with “Toyota Guy.” And Nikki and Molly want to know what he thought about it.

The title catches your attention and the sex stories are hysterical …but what really stayed with me was their beautiful friendship and the journey of self discovery for Molly. How Molly finally sees her life and too soon death gave me such a feeling of awe and happiness. What a beautiful soul…I felt like I knew both the women and hope I am such a good friend to my BFF. I highly recommend to everyone. What a gift to be able to hear another human being discovering and loving their true self and sharing their humanity. ❤️❤️❤️

Wow…funny,raunchy and poignant!
