Show Notes

Roy plays back a clip from his 2014 interview with celebrated U.S. conservative author, columnist and broadcaster Charles Krauthammer, who recently announced that he has perhaps weeks remaining to live as cancer has spread throughout his body.

Then, Roy is joined by Dr. Frank Farley to discuss the statistical increase in Suicide. We are always surprised when people who seem to "have it all" take their own lives. This week it was Kate Spade, fashion accessories designer and chef, author, broadcaster Anthony Bourdain. Does anyone go through an entire lifetime without ever experiencing suicidal thoughts?  When are suicidal thoughts sufficiently important to seek help?
