About Dying For Sex

A Wondery original podcast so compelling it was reimagined for TV starring Michelle Williams, Jenny Slate, Sissy Spacek, and more… When Molly's diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer, she decides to do something bold: she leaves her unhappy marriage and embarks on a series of sexual adventures to help her feel alive. She shares the funniest and most touching details with her closest friend, host Nikki Boyer. As they peel back the layers, we learn that Molly isn’t just grappling with breast cancer: she's also dealing with some trauma from her past. Along the journey, the friends explore bigger themes that affect us all -- like healing, forgiveness and what do we do with the time we have left.

He made his way up the on-ramp to Business 90 leading to the I-10 freeway, the same route he took about three times a day on his shift. It's a steep ramp, so he pressed down on the gas, trying to get as much speed as he could. That's probably only going about 40 miles an hour, 30 miles an hour. It's pretty slow going up that hill. When Jamie reached the top of the ramp, the city skyline and gleaming gold Superdome came into view. But Jamie didn't have his eyes on any of that. […]
