The Moth · Still Existing and Bucket Listing: The Moth Radio Hour · 7 Oct 2025 podcast

I have been a longtime moth listener.

And to actually meet you, I was shocked.

I'm a psychologist by profession, and when I tell people that, they either do one of two things.

They clam up, or then they start spilling their guts.

And I've always been kind of analytical, cerebral.

I like figuring people out.

I like helping people.

And so it's been a really good fit for me.

And in 2022, I got the opportunity of a lifetime with a job offer to work at the esteemed Moffitt Cancer Center, where I would get to help cancer patients go through all aspects of their cancer journeys.

I was so excited.

And about two weeks before my start date, I thought to myself, Jordy, you really ought to get this stomachache checked out that has been kind of lingering.

And so I drove myself one morning to an ER because it felt like my organs were about to explode.

Actually, I drove myself first to a dentist appointment because those are a real pain to reschedule.

And then I drove myself to the ER.

I'm responsible.

And I thought it was just gonna be something easy like colitis, pancreatitis, gingivitis, something just needed a pill.

But the doctor came back in and he looked really nervous and he started making weird small talk like,

where's your family?

How quickly could they get here?
