We’re a few days to go before the year ends!
Welcome back to another episode of The Goss here on the Aussie English podcast!
In today’s episode, we talk about cancers. Skin cancer, prostate, breast cancer, are some of the more known ones.
Dad just got off a bit of cryotherapy – it’s a procedure where doctors use liquid nitrogen to freeze and remove abnormal tissue.
It kind of led us to talk about how people get cancer genetically. When one is diagnosed with cancer, we wonder why there is such a stigma attached to it.

Hi, pete
I have a question to ask you about this episode. What does the phrase “Skin cancer city” actually mean? I have no idea about the meaning of this phrases that your father talk about.
Thank you
Tanya
Hey, mate. When something is Noun + City, it means that there’s a lot of it.
