このコンテンツについて

Sickboy is the only place where terminal diagnoses can peacefully coexist with jokes we probably shouldn't make. Hosted by three best friends, Jeremie, Brian, and Taylor, this show smashes taboos around illness, death, and everything in between. Inspired by Jeremie’s life with Cystic Fibrosis, we dive headfirst into the uncomfortable, the hilarious, and the heartbreaking. We talk to people living with everything from chronic disease to catastrophic injury, mental health struggles to medical miracles - and we do it with radical empathy, zero BS, and the kind of unfiltered jokes that get us kicked out of support groups. If you’ve ever felt weird, broken, or like no one gets it, welcome. New episodes drop every Wednesday. Pull up a seat; it’s gonna get real.

  • My Guts Are Nuts | Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
    2025/08/06

    They say laughter is the best medicine - unless you're diagnosed with something that sounds like a meme.

    Mike lives with FAP, short for Familial Adenomatous Polyposis - a rare genetic disorder that guarantees colon cancer without drastic surgical intervention. In this unfiltered and laugh-out-loud conversation, Mike opens up about the brutal realities of living without a large intestine, the mental toll of life-altering surgery at 18, and the deeply personal decision to write a memoir titled A Bump in the Road. From rows of shark-like baby teeth to an ostomy bag that looked like Rudolph’s nose, Mike takes us through the gritty details of his medical journey. But what starts as a conversation about disease turns into something much bigger: a story of resilience, perspective, and finding purpose on the other side of pain. Plus, a passionate pitch for bidets, because we all know bidets are for kings.

  • The Pokemon Seizure Panic of ‘97 | Photosensitive Epilepsy
    2025/07/30

    Turns out, the most dangerous thing on TV in the ‘90s wasn’t violence—it was Pikachu. In December, 1997, nearly 700 kids in Japan were rushed to the hospital after watching a single episode of Pokémon. No, this isn’t an urban legend—it actually happened, and it was electrifying (lol). This week, Jer walks the fellas headfirst into the wild, true story of the Pokémon seizure panic, how Pikachu literally short-circuited a nation, and why poor ol’ Porygon got wrongfully canceled before being canceled was cool.


    We break down the science of photosensitive epilepsy, uncover how a cartoon nearly led to a nationwide media meltdown. Justice for Porygon. Blame Pikachu.

  • “I Have Down Syndrome… And Road Rage”
    2025/07/23

    Taylor Arbeau is a firecracker. A passionate photographer, musician, and former Special Olympics athlete, she also happens to live with Down syndrome — mosaic Down syndrome, to be exact (yeah, we had no clue what that was either). In this candid convo, Taylor drops truth bombs about growing up “different,” discovering self-love, and calling bullshit on assumptions people make about her. She opens up about dating, her dreams of becoming a mom, and the unexpected ways Down syndrome has shaped her art and identity.


    This episode is all heart and zero pity. It’s a celebration of difference, determination, and the power of proudly being yourself — even if you might have a tiny bit of road rage.
