Cancer messes with your body, your sex life, and your self esteem, and the physical changes can make it hard to recognize ourselves inside our new "scratch and dent" bodies. Then: a virgin, a mother, and (suddenly!) a crone--the gals go taboo-busting in menopause land (this IS Cancer for Breakfast, after all). Why does hair have SO MUCH power? We hear during "Letters"--it can actually be freeing to just let go. Has anyone told you "at least you're alive" lately? Give us their names; we just wanna talk... And a lava lamp-like blob features in this week's RATS segment, creating a brand spanking new organelle that factors into bone mets. We've got a lot to say about bodies, and this is just the tip...of the iceberg, you perv!

Congrats to the winner of our Instagram giveaway! Was it you? Listen to find out.
