Who's Tom & Dick
🎙️ "Cancer. Heart Disease. Health. Well-being. And the unexpected medicine of laughter." Life can change in a heartbeat — a diagnosis, a heart attack, a moment that stops you in your tracks. We’ve been there, and now we’re talking about it. From treatment and support to family, friends, mental health, and the resources that get you through — we’re sharing it all. But it’s not just about illness; it’s about life. News, sports, hobbies, crafts, and the little distractions that keep us sane. Along the way, special guests bring fresh voices, real stories, and new perspectives. Light-hearted. Funny. Honest. Addictive. This isn’t just another podcast — it’s a community. Tune in, laugh with us, learn with us, and remember… all we ask is just a little smile.
