Episode Description
This is a special episode. It's about my brother-in-law Joel Zimmer who was diagnosed with back of the tongue and tonsil cancer caused by the HPV virus. If you were to tell people that there's a form of cancer that's sexually transmitted they'd probably look at you as if you're crazy. But there is and cases are on the rise. HPV now causes most of the throat and mouth cancers found in men. You'll hear from Joel, oncologists, sex experts and President Joe Biden, whom I interviewed in Washington, D.C. about his family's own experience with cancer. Thank you to Offscrip Health for allowing me to share "Silent Cancer" on "Now What?" "Silent Cancer" was produced with the help of Mary Rose Madden and Nick Ciavatta.
