In honor of Andrea Gibson, for their life and death on July 14th, 2025, we're resharing host Ned Buskirk's conversation them from January of 2022, including a new intro with host Ned Buskirk, producer Nick Jaina, and associate producer Jordan Edelheit, scored with more music from Nick Jaina, holding their laughter and tears on the chemo-brain railroad, talking about the record skipping parts of our lives’, the poetry of cancer, chronic disease, and panic attacks, and what it means to consider what’s available when faced with the hardest parts of being mortal.
