In this episode Rosie Moss is joined by Zoe Flory, who shares the story of her late partner Patrick from their whirlwind first meeting in a Brighton pub to navigating his terminal cancer diagnosis to raising their daughter Addie after his death.With unflinching honesty and flashes of humour, Zoe speaks about the reality of becoming a full-time caregiver, the heartbreak of watching Patrick fade under the weight of cancer and Lynch syndrome, and the extraordinary tenderness that carried them through.Zoe recalls the messy, magical, and devastating moments: draining fluid from Patrick's lungs at home, creating “daddy magic” rituals for their toddler, and choosing a pub-style wake over the cremation she wasn't ready for. She talks openly about preparing a young child for loss, using imaginative metaphors like “Daddy lives on the moon” to help Addie find comfort.Now living in a platonic co-parenting arrangement with a close friend, Zoe reflects on parenting through grief, reclaiming her own identity, and the contradictions of widowhood where love, loss, exhaustion and laughter all collide.This conversation is a reminder that grief is never simple, caregiving is never easy, and yet new forms of family and meaning can grow in the wake of heartbreak.

In this episode, Fitz Koehler and Medical Oncologist Dr. Timothy Cannon, specializing in gastrointestinal malignancies at the Inova Schar Cancer Institute, unpack his research on endurance runners and colon health. His study revealed surprisingly high rates of precancerous polyps and advanced adenomas in long-distance athletes. Together, they explore possible explanations, the role of the microbiome, how nutrition may factor in, and where more research is urgently needed. Key takeaways: Keep running — regular exercise remains one of the strongest protectors against cancer. Don't dismiss warning signs — blood or persistent GI issues should never be ignored. Get checked. Colonoscopy is the gold standard — screening starts at 45, and early detection/removal of polyps can prevent cancer altogether. This conversation is a wake-up call for runners everywhere: your training builds health, but screening saves lives. Thanks for keeping The Fitzness Show in the top 3% of all podcasts worldwide.

It's a decision that can save your life. Colon cancer screening is crucial because it allows for early detection and removal of precancerous polyps, preventing or significantly improving outcomes for colorectal cancer, which is a leading cause of cancer deaths. When colorectal cancer is detected early, it's often highly treatable and curable.
