So in this episode, we get into all of it.
We also talk about what he's doing now to help bring the same life-saving treatment to New Zealand, so other Kiwis don't have to go through what he did.
There is a lot in this one.
There's laughter, there's tears, it's heavy in parts, but also funny, honest, and genuinely inspiring.
All told by a man with an incredible ability to tell a great story.
David is one of those people who's been through something huge, and instead of just drawing a line in the sand and moving on, has decided to use it to help others.
This was the first time we met, I thoroughly enjoyed his company, and I think you will too.
This is the Dom Harvey Podcast, and here is David Downs.
Kia ora, nice to be here, thank you.
It's great to have you here.
First question, who is David Downs?
And a board director.
So many hats.
Why ex-comedian?
What does that mean?
Because when was the last time you did like an actual, what you'd call a stand-up routine?
All those names that you mentioned, like New Zealand household names when it comes to comedy, people that have devoted their life to it, whereas you've gone off on a more corporate route.
Did you notice a difference when you reunited?
Are you like, oh, there's levels to the game?
I mean, there's so many hats that you're wearing.
