What can I tell you about Dai Henwood?
There's the stuff that you may already know- he is funny, talented, successful and popular. Everyone loves Dai.
Then there’s the stuff you may not know- he is one of the kindest people you could ever meet, generous, caring, resilient, strong, brave, intelligent, introspective, thoughtful....
He was diagnosed with incurable cancer in 2020.
He went public with the news in 2022.
And since then, he has somehow managed to coexist with this hideous disease and adjust to his new normal.
This year alone, amongst other work commitments, while undergoing grueling treatment, he has written a book and made an incredible 3-part documentary about his cancer journey. We recorded this chat around the same time this documentary came out, so we do chat about that at length.

Dai was a guest on the podcast last year. This episode is an update on the life of Dai.
