In this episode, Charlie changes places as the host of his own show and becomes the guest.
Following a few requests suggesting listeners wanted to learn more about Charlie's own diagnosis and experience, that is exactly what the focus and premise of this episode is.
His previous guest, James Benzing takes on the hosting duties and they take a more detailed look back at his own journey.
Having been diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma at eighteen years old and given the all-clear. Twelve year's later, he relapsed only to have a more advanced case and a further six-months of chemotherapy treatment to navigate.
They discuss the many different side effects he experienced as part of his chemotherapy including vomiting, infertility, hair loss, ulcers and more. As well as the long-term effects post his chemotherapy, that would still appear to play a part in his life.
They focus on the importance of having the right network of resources and your friends and family to hand, to help support you through your journey.
They also pay mention to his aspirations for Talking To Charlie. Hoping that one day, it might become a recognised resource for all those seeking support through their own respective journeys and experiences.
