What does managing type 1 diabetes look like at 200 km/h? Chase Pelletier started karting at ten and received his diabetes diagnosis about a month later. Now a championship winner and race engineer, he joins the guys to unpack the physical demands of racing, the preparation that happens before he ever straps in, and why his mechanic can follow his blood sugar from the pit wall. Chase shares how technology has changed his confidence behind the wheel. He also gets into the sponsorship costs that forced him to step away from driving, the engineering career that brought him into Formula One, and the joy of returning to racing after twelve years away.

James started waking up with painful erections. Then it happened again and again up to five times a night. Pelvic floor therapy, sleep apnea treatment, medication, and prostate surgery failed to end the pain. With little sleep and few answers, James reached a frightening point in his mental health.

James joins the fellas to talk about the urologist who kept searching, the treatment that finally stopped his nighttime pain, and the tradeoffs that came with it. They also discuss sex after treatment, the support of James’s boyfriend, and Kuma, the teddy bear that helped him through his hardest nights. It’s a candid, funny, and deeply personal conversation about genital pain, shame, and finding room for joy again.

After her first child was born, Andrea Patterson thought she was a bad mom. She was barely sleeping, overwhelmed by anxiety, and afraid to say some of her thoughts out loud. Connecting with other parents through peer support helped her understand what she was going through. Today, she supports families as a perinatal peer support counsellor with Pacific Post Partum Support Society.

Andrea joins Jeremie, Brian, and Taylor to talk about intrusive thoughts, the fear of asking for help, the toll of sleep deprivation, and what partners and loved ones can actually do. They also discuss the public reaction to the Lindsay Clancy case without speculating about anyone involved.

Content note: Content note: This episode discusses suicidal thoughts, intrusive thoughts, and the deaths of children. When Andrea shares her thoughts on when to get help, it is in relation to postpartum anxiety, depression, and difficult postpartum transitions. Postpartum psychosis is a very different thing and is a medical emergency and requires immediate intervention. If you or someone else is in crisis, seek help now. If there is immediate danger, call local emergency services. In Canada or the U.S., call or text 988 for 24/7 crisis support (Canada, U.S.). For non-emergency postpartum peer support, contact Pacific Post Partum Support Society.
