SickboyAuthor: CBC
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 Jeremies 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 youve ever felt weird, broken, or like no one gets it, welcome. New episodes drop every Wednesday. Pull up a seat; its gonna get real.Follow Sickboy on Instagram & TikTok!

Episode 575
Tuesday, 6 October, 2026
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.Have a story you want to share?
