J.J. Singleton is a cancer slaying beast

Today’s guest is J.J. Singleton, a 33-year-old stage IV colorectal cancer patient from North Carolina. We’re honored to have him on the show!

J.J. is an inspiration and a cancer slaying beast. He has endured 96 rounds of chemo, 10 major surgeries, hundreds of IVs, scans, blood tests, and the list goes on.

On a recent episode of the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, J.J. got a shout-out as the “GOAT of chemotherapy treatments.” He was also paired with golf legend John Daly at the 2021 PGA TOUR CHAMPIONS Cologuard Classic in Tucson. 

This guy offers a master class in perseverance. At one point, he went 450 days without eating solid food, and he's endured other grueling experiences that would test the will and spirit of anyone. He's still here, still cheering for the Hokies, still inspiring cancer patients and survivors around the globe. We love you JJ!

About the Podcast

Man Up to Cancer
The show built for men facing cancer, and the people who love us!
I'm your host, Trevor Maxwell. I'm a stage IV colon cancer survivor, and I've got a message for other men: You don't have to go through cancer alone.

Every week on the Man Up to Cancer podcast, you can expect raw, unfiltered conversations about men, cancer, and our experiences. My guests will be other patients, survivors, advocates, and friends from #cancerland.

We'll tackle the topics of grief, pain, and the physical suck-fest of cancer. But .. PLOT TWIST.. we're also going to joke, laugh, and have fun.
