Description

Last week former President Joe Biden announced his prostate cancer diagnosis. Prostate cancer is the second deadliest cancer for men in the U.S. and is incredibly common. Boston Globe’s own Mark Shanahan knows that all too well. He was also diagnosed with it back in 2013 when he was 48 years old. His experience from diagnosis to cancer-free was the subject of a Boston Globe podcast released in 2020 called Mr. 80%. In this episode, Mark and Jazmin talk about the Joe Biden news and about Mark's experience with this disease before featuring the first episode of Mr. 80%.
