Checking-In With Gene Park | Sacred Symbols+, Episode 499

Please welcome Punching Up co-host and Washington Post writer Gene Park back to Sacred Symbols+. If you haven't heard, Gene is going through a difficult time right now. Unfortunately, the cancer he was first diagnosed with in 2022 and entered remission from in 2023 has returned, and the short story is that he's days away from a lobectomy that aims to solve this awful problem once and for all. I (Colin) know our fanbase has been concerned for Gene, and that some of you don't even know what's going on at all. So I figured I'd dedicate an episode of Sacred+ to talk to my friend face-to-face, covering what he's going through and how he's dealing with everything, and to give him an opportunity to speak with the many thousands of you out there that are already firmly in his corner. If you want to donate to Gene's GoFundMe, you can do so here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-gene-parks-cancer-surgery-and-treatment

Gene, the way you carry youself is truly inspiring and touching because I as a highly sensitive person am almost in shambles from merely thinking about what you're dealing with. I rarely ever pray for any reason as a non religious person but I'll be praying for you to the great mystery to give you lots more time to enjoy your life and for us to be able to enjoy your presence and awsome personality. All the best 🫂

It takes massive balls to stare cancer in the face and be able to go on living. I would be in a ball in the corner, but Gene is out here chugging along, appearing on shows, smile on his face. I think he is going to take cancer down like its a JRPG boss. Looking forward to his cancer free NG+ era.

Glad to see Gene back. Best wishes, brother.

Gold is at an all-time high Gene, your lungs are pretty rich and valuable. Kidding aside, always wishing you the best.
