Comedy legend Jamie Alcroft is back this week for the second half of his fascinating and fun conversation with Mark and Lowell. Despite the serious subject, Jamie’s humor and positivity shine through as he tells the saga of waiting for and going through successful heart and liver replacement surgeries. And Jamie’s wife, Emmy award winning figure skating choreographer Sarah Kawahara, joins in on some of the conversation sharing her perspective on journeying through the ordeal together. Since recovering, Jamie passionately encourages people to become organ donors, and is an international ambassador for the organization OneLegacyFoundation.org. If you aren’t one already, consider becoming an organ donor today and check out the link to their website.
And of course, find out more about Jamie’s life and comedy, his writing and silversmith work.
