このコンテンツについて

Men don’t talk about cancer. They should.

Walk It Off is a no-BS, three-episode series for men with cancer who are tired of going through this alone. No soft-focus inspiration. No sugarcoating. Just real conversations about what it means to be a man facing cancer in a world that still expects you to tough it out and keep quiet.

Men often delay care, stay silent, and suffer in isolation because they’ve been told asking for help makes them weak. That silence leads to late diagnoses, fewer options, and little support for the mental and emotional toll cancer takes. And for men in certain communities, the barriers are even higher.

This series breaks through that. Patients, advocates, and experts who get it talk about what works, what doesn’t, and what needs to change. How to get the right care. How to push past stigma. How to live your life without losing yourself along the way.

More men are speaking up. More communities are forming. But this fight isn’t over—and neither is this conversation. Walk It Off keeps it moving.

    Michael Kramer was 19 when cancer ambushed his life. He went from surfing Florida beaches to chemo, radiation, and a bone marrow transplant that left him alive but carrying a chronic disease. He had necrosis in his knees and elbows, lost his ability to surf for years, and found himself stuck in hospitals instead of the ocean. Yet he adapted. Michael picked up a guitar, built Lego sets, led support groups, and started sharing his story on Instagram and TikTok.

    We talk about masculinity, identity, and what happens when the thing that defines you gets stripped away. He opens up about dating in Miami, freezing sperm at a children’s hospital, awkward Uber-for-sperm moments with his brother, and how meditation became survival. Michael lost his father to cancer when he was a teen, and that grief shaped how he lives and advocates today. He is funny, grounded, and honest about the realities of survivorship in your twenties. This episode shows what resilience looks like when you refuse to walk it off and choose to speak it out loud instead.

    Trevor Maxwell lived the archetype of masculinity in rural Maine. Big, strong, splitting wood, raising kids, and carrying the load. Then cancer ripped that script apart. In 2018 he was bedridden, emasculated, ashamed, and convinced his family would be better off without him. His wife refused to let him disappear. That moment forced Trevor to face his depression, get help, and rebuild himself. Out of that came Man Up To Cancer, now the largest community for men with cancer, a place where men stop pretending they are bulletproof and start being honest with each other.

    Eric Charsky joins the conversation. A veteran with five cancers, forty-nine surgeries, and the scars to prove it, Eric lays out what happens when the military’s invincible mindset collides with mortality. Together, we talk masculinity, vulnerability, sex, shame, and survival. This episode is blunt, raw, and overdue.
