Living Anyway: A Love Letter to the Man Who Saved Me with Anthony Saim

from Dying Out Loud Podcast · host Kristopher Saim

Welcome to Season 2 of Dying Out Loud. If Season 1 was about saying goodbye, this season is all about how we keep living anyway. In this deeply personal season opener, Kris is joined by the man who knows him best—his husband and producer, Anthony Saim. Together, they navigate a conversation that is vulnerable, honest, and intentionally designed to break your heart open. In this episode: The Health Update: Kris announces his difficult decision to terminate chemotherapy after three and a half years of treatment, choosing to reclaim the person he was rather than continuing to wither away in a hospital bed. A Pandemic Love Story: The couple reminisces on meeting during the uncertainty of COVID-19, from a "hot daddy" Tinder profile to a quick move-in that changed their lives forever. Choosing Life: Anthony and Kris discuss their recent "yacht club" cruise experience and the peace found in choosing memories and travel over medical schedules. The Letter: Towards the end of the episode, Kris reads a letter he wrote to Anthony while sitting in the chemo chair—a testament to finding your "one true love" later in life and the beauty of being fully chosen. This episode is a reminder that even when time is short, love is always worth the risk. If you are listening and you love someone deeply, this is your sign to tell them
