Movember: In The Barber Chair

Kirk Pengilly and Layne Beachley

This episode of Movember Radio features the ultimate power couple, Kirk Pengilly and Layne Beachley. Kirk is the guitarist and saxophone player for one of the biggest bands of all time, INXS, while Layne conquered the waves as a seven-time champion professional surfer, the only woman to ever do so. But the couple was rocked earlier this year when Kirk was diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer in February. Tune in as Kirk and Layne take you on their journey from diagnosis to life after surgery, and how they dealt with everything in between.
