    Jun 16 2025
    Matthew Zachary has been reshaping the healthcare media landscape since before podcasting even had a name. A 29-year survivor of brain cancer, he’s the founder of Stupid Cancer and the voice behind Out of Patients—one of the longest-running healthcare podcasts, which launched in 2007 as The Stupid Cancer Show.
