In this final episode of the podcast, Mike signs off by answering rather than asking the questions during the interview slot, Alison and he round off the ‘Finding the Words’ series, and a peek behind the scenes of the podcast is provided by a selection of outtakes.
The following points are among those covered in this episode:
- Sarah-Jane Hogg, Chief Executive of Friends of ANCHOR, interviews Mike about his connection with Friends of ANCHOR and his experience of running the podcast over the last eighteen months or so. Sarah-Jane also explains the factors that have led to the feeling that now is the right time to bring the podcast to an end. [01:00]
- In their final ‘Finding the Words’ slot, Mike and Alison reflect on recent developments that have encouraged people to speak more openly and naturally about cancer and other serious illnesses. Alison also shares her appreciation of the way in which comedian, Mark Steel, describes cancer as being like having a leopard in your house while Mike talks about what it’s like to feel that you have ‘a number on your head’, following a cancer diagnosis and treatment. [19:26]
- The concluding ‘And Finally’ slot features some outtakes that transport listeners behind the scenes of the podcast and confirm everyone’s suspicions that recordings weren’t always safely ‘in the can’ after a single take! [27:58]
