Alex Pledger Opens Up - Battle with Bowel Cancer, Basketball Legacy & NZ Breakers Dynasty

Alex Pledger is officially the tallest podcast guest ever. He is also the guest with the biggest feet…and maybe the biggest heart as well.

This was the first time we had ever met; I knew very little about Alex but the two hours just flew by. There are lots of lessons in here….the most important one being the importance of early detection for bowel cancer. This episode could literally save lives!

We cover a lot of ground here- the highs of his epic basketball career including 5 NBL titles with the Breakers, the harrowing lows of his bowel cancer journey, the beautiful love story with his wife Bailey and so much more. You guys are gonna love this one.
