Dr. Brad Miller hosts Episode 105 of the Cancer and Comedy Podcast, a show dedicated to helping people impacted by adversity heal through hope and humor. Their mission is to guide listeners in “turning the grim into a grin,” showing how laughter, attitude, and community can transform even the most challenging moments in life.

In this episode, Dr. Brad welcomes humorist and keynote speaker Joel Zeph, author of Make the Right Choice: Lead, Elevate, Unleash. Joel shares how losing his job shortly after moving to Dallas became the catalyst for his journey into comedy and speaking. He explains how picking up the harmonica and embracing a new path taught him to choose his attitude rather than be defined by his circumstances.

They explore how comedy and improv teach us resilience, connection, and the power of choosing how we respond to change. Joel emphasizes the “Ta Da” moments—small celebrations that fuel passion, elevate energy, and build momentum in both corporate life and personal recovery. Dr. Brad ties these ideas to the podcast’s theme of healing through community, hope, and humor.

Listeners will hear how embracing play, laughter, and intentional celebration helps shift perspective, strengthen bonds, and restore energy. From standing by someone’s side in crisis to actively choosing to “stay in the game,” this episode celebrates courage, connection, and joy.

Episode 105 of the Cancer and Comedy Podcast is a must‑listen for anyone navigating recovery, loss, or change. It’s a powerful reminder that healing isn’t about erasing pain—but about choosing hope, finding laughter, and moving forward together.
