This week’s guest is stand up comedian, writer and podcast king Ed Gamble, who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 13.

Taking what he calls a ‘more than relaxed’ approach to diabetes management in his teenage years, the pursuit of better physical health a decade later led Ed to the unattainable pursuit of blood sugar perfection. He chats about finding a balance between the two approaches, managing diabetes with a demanding schedule and using stand up comedy as a way to normalise the obscurities that life with type 1 diabetes can bring.

This episode highlights the humour that can be found alongside this very serious and at times debilitating chronic condition.
