WELCOME BACK to AfterThoughts: The Teenage Years and the VERY FIRST EPISODE of Season Six. The first with brand new hosts Aiden and Shaumya. And kicking off the series, we're joined by Jak.

Diagnosed with melanoma when he was 21, Jak joins us to chat about his best friend Carly, moments during in treatment of wishing himself back to normal and surviving 100% of the days you didn't think you were going to. We're so bloody glad to be back and we're so thrilled to be back with Jak.
