Episode • Apr 5, 2022 • 1h 5m

Red rover, red rover, send Stef’s therapist on over... to the cancer-adjacent club no one wants to be in. When our care providers’ loved ones get cancer, do they also get the keys to our kingdom…or is it an excuse to bail? Then: we’ve got dream fever, dream weavers. Prodromal, premonitions, or plain old nightmares—is this how our unaddressed ailments have tried to reveal themselves? And would you believe we have a Sister Act, too? We’re Back in the Habit—of analyzing the complications of cancer-related family drama. Come for the sisterly love and her angel’s advocate; stay for the on-air surprise during RATS. Whoopi! Speaking of angels: do Fido and Lassie hold the secret to oncology diagnostics? Only the dog’s nose knows. Ruff, ruff!

(Thank you, Liz!!)
