Gary’s heartfelt journey will span the U.S., stopping at all 73 NCI-designated comprehensive cancer centers and other meaningful locations along the way, starting with a Southwest leg in the Fall of 2026 and continuing across the country in June 2027 . At every stop, powdered donuts will be shared and stories will be collected – echoing the spirit of StoryCorps® – down to the Airstream® in which Gary will travel.
This episode captures the seeds of the idea in a conversation with Rick Dunetz, Founder of the Side-Out Foundation, along with some fun outtakes from past episodes with advice from previous guests. This upcoming journey is truly more than a road trip. It is a mobile love letter. A love crusade. “One Story. One Moment. One Donut at a time.”
