How you react to the events in your life will have a huge impact on the quality of it. We will all face adversity at some point, and losing a loved one can be one of the hardest things to cope with. We speak to Steve Bland, journalist and co-host of the award-winning podcast YouMeandtheBigC. Steve was married to Rachael Bland, a Welsh journalist and a presenter with BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC North West Tonight. Rachael was known for her podcast, You, Me, and the Big C which was broadcast while she was ill with breast cancer, and in which she discussed issues and treatment of the disease. In 2018 Rachael passed away and Steve talks about coping with life and being a dad. We also talk about the power of podcasts, football, and of course BBQs!
