- DANNY FAIRBRASS' BATTLE WITH CANCER REVEALED
In this exclusive episode of the podcast, Danny Fairbrass gave a vivid insight into his recent battle with melanoma skin cancer. He was also joined by his life coach, Rob Kelly, one of the founders of the revolutionary psychological training programme, The Thrive Programme. Danny has experienced significant positive changes since completing the programme and is a huge supporter of its benefits.
Danny arranged this impromptu podcast to raise awareness surrounding the seriousness of the sun. By revealing his current situation, he hopes to encourage people to wear appropriate clothing, regularly use factor 50 sun cream and most importantly, respect the sun.
Furthermore, considering his recent situation, he announced that 50% of all profits from the Korda Kool clothing range will be going to Cancer Research UK, and the other 50% will go to the Lennox Children’s Cancer Fund.
Lastly, for anyone who might be interested in exploring The Thrive Programme, Rob Kelly has kindly offered our audience a temporary 20% discount when you use code KORDA at checkout at www.thriveprogramme.org.

Boggles my mind how people can still click unlike 🤯
This is one of the most powerful things I have ever watched 👌
I take my hat off to you dan! major courage there fella. You should have an MBE for services to carp fishing in my opinion. I wish you a good speedy recovery and so glad you can survive this. You're one of the reasons I got into carp fishing back when Korda 1st started and followed ever since. My dad is going through throat cancer and had to have his voice box removed, but the upside is you are still alive. Hope you get on the bank soon mate. All the best from a Manchester carper and the northwest.
Top bloke & all that but services to carp fishing 😂 come on now fella ahah nor him or anyone else is gonna be getting that in the post anytime soon
@@CJAFCN5 He’s done more for carp fishing than anyone ever.
@@CJAFCN5 I'm also referring to embryo mate and what he's done to create safe carp lakes to fish and preserve UK waters. Embryo has done wonders to the UK carp scene. I still stand by what I said. If Marcus rashford can get one by just saying gibe kids free meals, Dan definitely deserves one. But everyone is entitled to there opinion.
@@CJAFCN5 clearly haven’t a clue what you’re talking about
@@CJAFCN5 give up while your behind
Lost my dad after his 6 year battle, last year.
Seeing Dannys positivity reminds me of my dads and is awe inspiring, he will be here a long time yet x
Most inspiring blog I have watch. Suffering from depression myself I have take a load from this video that I will be adding to my skill set.
I am looking at thrive it sound like it could make such a difference to my life.
Dan, You are very courageous for not only battling cancer and also for speaking about your mental health. Using your platform and experience to share this is amazing so that others can heed your advice and learning. Your positivity has inspired me to seek help and speak to a Thrive coach. I’ve suffered with Mental health issues all my adult life and after losing my Mum at 64, I started to watch the Korda videos and started fishing again as an escape mechanism from my struggles. I also have the perfectionist mentality and can relate to the same challenges. I want to wish you the very best of health and hope you make the very best recovery. Hope to see you in Zwolle next year. Matt @ Siboveld
Im 40 was diagnosed with melanoma when I was 35. Stage 2. After 6 operations and lots of stress, I have one more cancer check up in September till I hopefully get the all clear and discharged. Glad you tell the world about this Danny. It goes under the radar alot.
I have my fingers crossed for you mate hope you get the all clear
Hope you get the all clear mate👍.
I went straight to the shop and got factor 50 for me and all the family
Massive respect for the attitude Dan has towards life and recovery
Big respect
In tears watching this, Excessive sunlight can cause cataracts too as I have recently discovered.
The Aussies have a mantra about this very subject.
Slip on a shirt, Slop on the 50+ sunscreen, Slap on a hat, Seek shade or shelter, Slide on some glasses used to block out sun. - "Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slide"
This is inspiring! I have suffered with anxiety and depression for a number of years now and recently started carp fishing to help tackle my demons,
I can honestly say having fishing to look forward to on the weekends has saved me!
I'm going to give 'The thrive programme' a go myself after watching this im ready to take control a step further!
Dan, i wish you a speedy recovery and hope to see you back on the bank soon enough!
All the best to you and your family.
Massive respect to Danny Fairbrass and Rob Kelly for this podcast. I am just getting back into fishing again after 10 years and remember having a low opinion of Danny previously but watching this has totally changed my mind. Not only because it has now made me 100% aware of wearing suncream, for my kids also, but also the giving back attitude he has. It again shows me never to judge a book by it cover. Makes me feel good for all the Korda gear I just bought as well. Well done Danny and Rob, massive respect!!
I know want going through, I had bone marrow cancer 3 years ago,and thanks to all the care I've had it's all gone,
So life goes on and I'm back fishing all the best for the future dude.
Ive been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer hearing this positive talk has helped me remain positive.
Thank you for sharing this 🙏
Best of luck brother! My Dad had aggressive prostate cancer and is clear now. Keep it positive
@@Onpointcarp got a appointment today with my oncologist hopefully the first stage of treatment has worked, as it has spread into my bones its now not curable but if I've responded to treatment it becomes controllable
@@herby69blunt My thoughts are with you mate. I wish you the best of luck!!
Just bought the thrive course of amazon due to this and the other podcast you did with rob so hope it can help Thanks for this Danny
So inspiring to watch. Danny your truly amazing and it’s not sympathy talking, it’s the positivity coming from yourself.
I had stage 4 cancer in 2019 after a lengthy battle I’m now in remission and now will hopefully see my kids grow up… hope the same for you Danny
What a legend. This program would be AMAZING in schools. Working in a school myself I see how much this effects kids. Id love to see something like this rolled out. Kids and adults need to learn how to manage their emotions. Cant imagine what a difference this would make.
True legend! Wish him the speediest of recoveries 🙏
By far the best podcast!! Awareness through to educating kids, brilliant guys 👌👌👌
By far the best and most informative pod cast I have seen I have such an admiration for for these guys and I have now bought me and my children that exact sun screen! Well done 👏🏼
Just so much respect for the geezer. he's taught me so much indirectly, he inspired so many of us, so much respect for you Danny, stay strong big man, so much love x
I have always quite liked Danny Fairbrass but didn't know that much about him other than he's a brilliant angler with a wealth of experience and ideas. What he's done so the the Embryo idea which helps the future of carp fishing for future generations and making no real profit was just awesome. Now hearing about this cancer he is experiencing and the way he's dealing with it is just beyond belief. What a great man who should be a real role model for future generations whether it's in business, fishing, having ideas you actually follow through and certainly the theramplafist with his charity work for cancer. These are things everyone from young kids to adults who think they know it all. This man wasn't spoon fed just an admirable fella. Good on ya Danny keep it going and tight lines.
Top bloke, as someone else said Danny needs a MBE! Learnt a lot from this.
Top bloke wishing him the very best
Wishing you every possible success with your battle against this bastard disease. I am five years clear of a melanoma, I got lucky when they caught mine pretty early, but I have a wife and two girls and having to tell them that dad had cancer was horrible. Big respect for being so open and honest........
Have to say, I've been that person to never really worry about the sun that much. Seeing this definitely opens your eyes up to what the dangers of it can be. Just purchased a few bits to hopefully protect me that bit more, so just want to say thanks for bringing this up and raising awareness, can't imagine how hard it must be for you and the fam. Wish you all the best Danny!
Danny this is Vital for all fishermen to know about fishing in the Sun and Skin Cancer. Thank you for bringing up the topic. I'm an ex cancer patient and very much appreciate you stepping forward and dicusing the challenge.
I have to say, my respect for this man grows year on year. Amazing attitude to have 👌 what a roll model 👌
Outstanding podcast - not just the best Korda podcast .. but one of the best I’ve ever seen regardless of the host .. if you put a thumbs down .. you really have a lot to learn about life
There is no sympathy from me, just a hell of a lot of respect Dan...
Truly speechless after watching this. Inspirational, humbling and such determination throughout. The raw truth laid out for all to listen to and learn from.....
Just bought a THRIVE manual
Fair play for being honest
Your an inspiration not just only fishing but in life
This will save lives. Amazing podcast. I was sent the Instagram picture while fishing and I went and bought a sun shirt and trousers on my way home. Am ashamed of myself for not taking these steps sooner and was always brought up that a good tan was healthy - never again! Really interesting stuff about the positive attitude - was sick with severe aplastic anaemia in my earlier 20’s and have no doubt that my positive attitude helped me get through it...
That Korda Podcast Presenter Is unbelievably good!! What a podcast and a story,
Hi Danny, Not many gals in carp fishing but one here, although technically I don’t fish, I assist my oh but have totally embraced every other aspect of carp fishing. I came across you watching Thinking Tackle on Shed some years ago now with my oh who remembers you in your early days selling leads from a bucket. You’ve come so far with sheer grit and determination, well done to you sir.
This latest battle is just another hurdle you have to deal with and hats off to you for your positivity and attitude towards melanoma. My oh and I have just come back from a 3 day fishing session where we stupidly forgot the sunblock and are a little red from the sun so are feeling more than a little stupid as we are watching this podcast.
I’m a postie and a lot of us suffer from it due to being constantly exposed to the sun and our company do very little to help us other than pay lip service to shift liability. I’d love it for you to come and give us a talk on the effects of melanoma; a lot of posties are carp fishermen too and will know about you and Korda.
But keep your head up and keep on going, you’re doing a fine job. No sympathy here, just oodles of respect.
R x
By far the best pod cast I have ever watched. Guys you need to persuade ITV to run this on TV. Or something similar.
Massive respect to Danny for the awareness of the dangers of the sun and for bringing up mental health awareness also. I have to say I was Massively disappointed that I could not refer myself to Thrive Mental Wellbeing….shows it only being available for employees of big organisations. Danny spoke so highly of it and I am certain this could help me as I tried and failed to get help from therapy and hypnotherapy sessions previously so I am desperate to get help anywhere that could help a man through this time in his life 🙏🏻 If anyone could advise me further I’d be forever grateful 🙏🏻
A perfectly timed podcast considering the weather in the UK right now. Me and my mate Gavin were lucky enough to get Danny as our tutor on the second ever Carp Society School at Horseshoe lake when we were little nippers. This was when Korda was in it's infancy, Danny had a look at the rigs we were using and showed us some simple but game changing tweaks. (Blood knot we were using on the swivel became a palomar, knotless knot now incorporating silicone tube further down the shank for better alignment.) I still tie my bottom bait rigs with these additions more than 25 years later. I played tennis with my Dad today in the baking sun, I made sure he used my bottle of factor 50 as opposed to his F30. I told him of this podcast and how we need to be avoiding the sun as much as possible. I'm going to book us on to play tennis later in the day now. I've spoken to two of my fishing buddies since this podcast was released, both times this topic has been mentioned. My brother just text me a photo of his new Korda long sleeve from the range mentioned in the video. Keeping covered seems so obvious on the face of it, we all know about the potential effects Danny is talking about. Not many of us actually follow it though. We've all been there, found a chunk on the surface on a baking hot day, mixer rod in hand, the hours slip by without a thought to sun cream/covering up etc. This podcast is bringing it right to the forefront of our minds, and even in my limited fishing/family circle, it's having a ripple effect and going beyond just the people who have viewed this video. We tip our sun hats to you Danny, wishing you all the best from David and Gavin.
This is the first time I've felt compelled to comment. What a fantastic human being. I know you don't want it, but it's human nature to feel sorry for someone who's suffering, so Danny, if by some miracle you do read this, don't have a negative reaction if someone wishes you well - it's human nature and I'm sure you'd do it if it was the other way round. Remember - think positive ; ) Always had a lot of respect for Danny, but this has just launched him through the stratosphere for me. Top, top bloke.
I’ve listened loads of pods casts. This has to be the most powerful I’ve had the pleasure of hearing, life changing if you take away the right advice. Let’s all start thriving!
100% agree as I'm now into my 5th week recovering from a skin cancer op on my face. Not had to deal with half the amount you've had too but your advice is very solid. Protect yourself from the sun, it's not girly, I didn't do enough! 😔
A very honest interview from Danny here. Insightful and informative. It is a brave move to share his experiences and probably something he struggled with. It is interesting to watch an obvious narcissist expose themselves to vulnerability on view for all. Good luck to him. I like the guy tbh and his enthusiasm and passion is contagious and brilliant, has done so much for our carping obsession with development and investment and the industry would be a lesser place without him and Korda in it! I wish him all the very best and can not wait to see a vitalised, new-born Danny Fairbrass!!
I feel I’m becoming a simp for Danny 🤦🏻♂️😂 guys a proper legend
Endless respect for you Danny. Very strong man I wish you and your family all the best! Keep on casting and landing them monster Carp when your recovered!
I will defiantly be getting factor 50 for the family thank you
I'll be taking factor 50 out with me this weekend 100%!! Massive respect for Dan and everything he's done and is still doing to spread awareness, not just in the fishing game but to the wider community as well.
What a legend this guy is, and such important information . Factor 50 from now on for me .
After spending the weekend by the lake in nothing but shorts and a floppy hat, minimal sun tan lotion, and as a former cancer patient myself. It’s took this podcast to make me realise what a bell i have been.
Safe to say I’ll be using factor 50 from now on. Thanks Dan 👍
Wow wow wow, what an open honest and very brave pod cast. This brought back memories of my own cancer battle with non Hodgkin lymphoma some 18 years ago, I can relate to everything you said, from the early days raving to the bad Days of lying on the settee not being able to move after chemo. For someone who has done everything for carp fishing now given even more by this podcast and profit from the clothing going to very worthy charity’s I salute you. May you current battle be short and hopefully your last as I.m a firm believer of a positive mental attitude is a great help and thank you for highlighting your personal plight to 1000,s of people.
Before I even watch any further , Dan your a brave man , always keep positive and we are all hear for you . Your an inspiring man and long will you be a hero in the angling world . I have also had a bad few years losing my leg in a motorbike accident. Just don’t even think about failure !!
Inspiring, informative and brilliantly supporting. Right up there at the top of your podcasts. I keep my hat on to you Mr Fairbrass. Thank you.
Dan wish you all the best. This is all to familiar to me and my family my wife also has suffered with five melanoma 3 operations. We have now not had cancer for longer than 12 months the longest time in 5 years . 💙💙💙
Just ordered the book for my wife thanks Dan for showing there is help. And massive respect to you keep up the fight tight line
Don’t post much on here but you are a total legend mate. Korda has done so much for my angling. What a guy. My dad had melanoma so this hits home.
Legend. Wish you and your family all the best.
A giant amongst men ❤️
Absolute legend and a true inspiration. Wishing him and his family all the best for the future 🙏🏻
I’ve been listening/watching to these and finding them so good for tips and pointers but this one changed my whole outlook, I’ll never fish without factor 50 again, thank you!
Much love and respect to you Danny my brother
Love this, I got discharged yesterday after 5 years a .4mm melanoma and one pre cancerous mole, Dan articulates the mental battle perfectly
Amazing video. I’m going through my own health process… can identify with a lot of this!!
Cheers for your openness Dan.
I myself have just been through all of this over the last 5 months. I had melanoma in my leg, the sentinel nodes come back positive, so the rest of the nodes got removed… I had a 58 stitch slice round my calf which was the original site and another 8” slice all the way up my groin area up the top of my leg where the nodes are… I had a drain in for 3 weeks, my leg is still swollen a month later. But I’m on the up now and recovering well, I’ve been as positive as I can about this throughout everything other than a little wobble when my leg doubled in size and felt like it was on fire for a week, that was a very tough time.
I am no stranger to getting on a plane for a nice holiday and had a place in Spain for about 10 years, I think it’s safe to say that it’s cost me! So now I’ll be fishing like Danny with the right clothing and protection.
I’ve not been fishing for a good 4 months, but today I’m finally out and feeling confident!
Well done for being so brutally honest, my only wish is you and ting tong make up and share your experiences and pull together. Long may your recovery continue to be positive.
Thank you so much for this amazing video! I also completed The Thrive Programme and while the resources given are much easier than counselling, cbt etc I wouldn't say the journey is always easy, I had some very challenging days/weeks and at some points the change felt very painful. However the fact the change was painful meant there was alot of growing involved and i in honestly say I wouldn't sacrifice the pain because it all got me to where I am TODAY. Every bit was worth it! Rob and Dan are right do the thrive programme and give yourself the happiness you deserve.
Dan you truly are a inspiration!
And Rob I love you as always!!
Absolute massive respect for Dan.
I had respect for him anyway for what he has done for carp fishing over the past 20+ years but this is a whole new level of admiration.
In 2018 my best friend overcame Melanoma that was 13mm,Yes!! 13mm!The surgeon told him that he had never seen anything like it and that stage 4 Melanoma was 4mm +.
Luckily for my mate it had grown into his skin then turned and was growing back out of him.
He now has a dermatologist check him over every 3 months and he has totally changed his outlook about the sun.
When we were 17-18 years old him and our other mates loved the sunbeds.
It was the done thing back then in the late 90’s early 00’s ,looking good and chasing girls in the clubs was the norm and skin cancer was something that we thought only happened to old people or people that proper smashed the sunbeds ( although i lost my dad to lung cancer back in 1988) so i had already had a brush with a family member having cancer.
Being fair skinned myself i stayed away from any kind of sun after being burned badly when i was a kid on holiday.
From then on my mum drilled it into me to just wear factor 50 and cover up with a t shirt and cotton trousers because there was no point risking it when i just burn and don’t tan.
So for the past 30 years i have always wore PF50 and covered up with clothing whenever i could because sunburn is unpleasant,prickly heat is proper unpleasant and finally skin cancer is to be taken seriously.
Even a recent camping trip to Scotland i went on shows a picture of me and my mates sat on a rock at a waterfall.
The sun is blazing and all my mates are just in a pair of shorts and me and Ste (who had the Melanoma) are covered up with a t shirt, trousers and i even have a carp hoodie on but also both wearing factor 50.
Keep up the positive attitude Dan and let’s all enjoy life and fishing safely.
Hats off to you Danny. All the best.
Incredible listen Danny. Very brave and inspirational. 💪
I take my hat off to you Dan. Opened my eyes and informative hearing you talk about cancer and your personal issues. Well done for overcoming them and having a positive outlook and moving forward with your life. Had a few tears in my eyes whilst watching this. I have used factor 50 for a few years now since having two sons. I will be doing thrive and be intrested how it goes. Think it could be the thing I've been looking for. Looking forward to seeing your next podcast. Full credit Dan. You the man.
Thank you for doing this podcast I been suffering with mental health but after listening to this I feel better about it.
What an amazing podcast. Thanks Dan and Rob for bringing it to us.
Absolutely well worth the listen, What a humble bloke, massive respect to Danny
Mind blown what a podcast. Big respect Dan and thank you for sharing your experience and I will be listening. Rob is a genius, in awe mate
A speedy recovery Dan, I had some skin cancer removed myself in February this year, this is a great message to get out to everyone 👍👍
Feel the pain Dan, just had one removed from my temple by my right eye and a skin graft put on, working outside can literally be a killer this time of year, ALWAYS wear factor 50
Massive respect to Dan🙏 A real lesson to us all!!
The most brave and selfless thing i've ever heard on the internet, hats off, but with the factor 50 on! Ordered some P20 SPF50 immediately for me and my 10y old son! Thanks Danny.
The best Podcast ever! Thankyou Danny!
I got burnt last week, I feel a right idiot. My sun got badly burnt and he will be watching this with me later!
On another note, I am determined to improve my mental health and positivity!
Danny fairbrass you are a inspiration to fishing and life in general watching this has really made me think about putting on sun lotion, your positivity with your medical expenses is amazing never give up 🤜🏼🎣
Thanks Dan, I am working through Chronic Pain podcasts, particularly " unweaving chronic pain " but I have journaled today that if and when I reach a plateau I will use Thrive to keep pushing forward. Several cases of fatal cancer within my direct family which are like a cloud over me sometimes, due to maybe thinking, thanks for info.
The poor guys are really choked up - good on you Danny for speaking about it, it makes everyone think about how easy it is to overlook things. Thank you and the very best of luck to you and your family, long live the Fairbrass!
The most inspirational Podcast ever!
Going out after work tonight and never thought about putting on sunscreen, but now am covered in the stuff :-) all the best Danny...definitely making us all think, Top Man
Brilliant podcast, should be on the telly for everyone to see. Very honest and your zest for life is so inspiring. 👍
Good luck Danny. Massive influence on my carp fishing and great to hear he's back on top.
Danny. It’s a year tomorrow since I lost my best mate and fishing partner to melanoma spreading from his chest to 14 in his brain.
Big up to you speaking out and Best of all the luck I can send for the future mate.
We all need to be aware of the risks just little things bring.
Get checked boys it can save your life!!
Respect for coming out with all of that, been through the wars! Couldn’t imagine being in that position.
Great touching podcast wish you all the best Dan 👍👍
Most positive thing i've done on Friday for possibly ever. Now to act. Thanks for this, the whole Korda krew.
Have to say I always thought of Danny as a bit of a big head but I have to hand it to him the work he is doing to promote our safety whilst out in the sun doing the thing we love is awe inspiring
Get well soon Danny! Stay strong, much love
I wish you all the best Danny !!! May God guide your steps to good health !!! Best wishes from Romania !
Very respectful and insightful podcast my favourite one yet. Really opened my eyes to how serious the the sun can be. I will for sure when out in general and even more so on the bank keep my self protected
Wow I will take this on board what a powerful episode of the podcast. Started listening but then switched to the video version. Will look into this as I hear many similarities with my own life experiences to date
Massive respect Danny. I been out in the sun most of the week. Got burnt to fu*k. Definitely opened my eyes Bro. Speedy recovery on it's way to you man and hopefully will see you on the lake sometime.
Slimmer is stealthier. Pale skin is healthier. Great that you're on the mend with the help of Mark, Alistair and Tel. Nice shirt too.
So glad to hear that news in beginning thought about him all weekend. I know he doesn't want sympathy but thousands of people have watched him for years it almost becomes like you know him he's friends to thousands of people and he's doesn't even know them so he's guna get it people are concerned and thankfull to him for what he's doing with embryo and his charity work amazing person.
Well done for spreading the important info Dan... wishing you a speedy recovery and lots of fishing.
What an inspiring story! To have the mental resilience to overcome all of this is quite frankly astonishing, Credit too you! Danny you are a proper superhero!
Touching watching you in a hospital bed fella hope you get well soon hope you and the family and korda crew all have a better 2021 x
Listened & now watched this again. Great podcast. Would anyone have listened if you knew the subject matter first?
Honesty & openness streams through with a great message. Not just wear your suncream but a real taboo for men....mental health.
Such value and well delivered. Excellent work Danny.
I will upgrade my factor 20 to to the asbestos suit type factor 50 cream. Really don't fancy copying you on that condition or the personal glug pots...rigs? thats a different story.
Well done guys. This one is up there with the Simon Scott podcast.
Great podcast , the best thing is seeing Dan speaking the truth about it all . Loved it definitely going to up the sun Lotion factor 👏🏼
What a man.. Great to see him so happy! What an attitude!
