Before becoming a renowned scientist and wellness leader, Dr. Christina Rahm experienced the healthcare system from the other side, spending her early years battling Lyme disease, followed by a rare and aggressive brain tumor, all before the age of 25. Misdiagnosed, dismissed, and searching for answers, her personal health journey became the foundation for her life’s mission.

In Part 1 of this powerful two-part conversation on Oldish, Brian and Sharna sit down with Christina to unpack the pivotal experiences that shaped her mission: from surviving life-altering diagnoses to redefining what true healing means. She shares her journey through the cracks of traditional medicine, the intuition that kept her going, and how those early struggles became the foundation for a global mission.

Now, Christina is using her expertise to lead health and biotech innovation in over 90 countries, building solutions that bridge science, soul, and accessibility. Her story is a testament to resilience and a call to rethink what we’ve been taught about health, healing, and whose voice gets heard.

What’s small, butterfly-shaped, and quietly running the show in your body? Your thyroid. 

This week on Oldish, Brian and Sharna sit down with McCall McPherson - nationally recognized thyroid expert, PA-C, and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic, and someone who has personally battled her own thyroid challenges, to talk all things thyroid health and why this little gland has such a big impact.

She’s best known for helping patients who’ve been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told their labs were “normal” - even when they felt anything but. In this conversation, McCall blends her medical expertise with her lived experience to uncover how thyroid issues can sneak up on you, the signs to watch for, and the difference between traditional and functional approaches to treatment.

If you’ve been feeling “off” and can’t quite figure out why, this episode might just connect the dots.

After two powerful episodes putting Randy in the hot seat, the Oldish team sits down to reflect on everything that came up. Randy shares how surprised he was by the emotions the conversation stirred, especially when talking about his father, and how different his life looks now compared to those years.

Continuing from Part 2, the team revisit the inner child work they discussed in that episode, exploring how much our younger selves still influence the way we think, feel, and show up today. Randy opens up about how this very work has become a cornerstone of his coaching practice, helping clients uncover hidden patterns, heal old wounds, and create real change in their lives.

After pulling back the curtain on his childhood and life inside the Spelling Manor in Part 1, Randy goes even deeper in Part 2. This is where the conversation turns raw and unfiltered, as he opens up about his battles with addiction- the highs, the lows, and the moments that nearly cost him everything.

He shares personal stories around money and the complicated relationship he’s had with it, offering a rare glimpse into how those experiences shaped his values and choices. At the heart of it all is a thread that’s been there since the beginning - spirituality. Even when he didn’t fully recognize it, Randy’s intuitive side was guiding him, and it’s that same connection he’s now spent the last 17 years channeling into his work as a life coach.

This episode is a powerful look at redemption, self-awareness, and how the deepest struggles can lead to the most meaningful transformations. 

If you missed Part 1, be sure to go back and listen to it.

In this off-the-cuff episode, Randy, Brian, and Sharna hand over the reins to ChatGPT and the results are hilariously unpredictable. With nothing but their own prompts and a bit of blind trust in AI, they dive into a rapid-fire Q&A that leads them down some very unexpected (and very Oldish) paths.

It’s a chaotic mix of nostalgia, midlife quirks, and the kind of banter only this trio can deliver.

Fast, fun, and totally on brand, it’s everything we love about being a little bit Oldish.

What happens when your co-hosts secretly turn the mic on you? In this special two-part episode, Brian and Sharna surprise Randy by putting him in the hot seat, no prep, no script, just raw conversation.

In Part 1, Randy opens up about what it was really like growing up in “the manor” under the roof (and influence) of one of the most successful TV producers of all time, his father Aaron Spelling. He shares childhood memories from a house that was practically a Hollywood landmark, what it felt like being surrounded by fame, and the quiet longing for something deeper.

One pivotal moment? A trip to Las Vegas during the height of Beverly Hills, 90210 mania, when he watched his sister Tori and father Aaron get mobbed by adoring fans. It wasn’t the fame that struck him, it was the impact they had on complete strangers. That moment flipped a switch. Prior to that, acting wasn’t even on Randy’s radar. But suddenly, it became a path that might allow him to change lives too.

Randy doesn’t hold back in this episode, sharing stories, insecurities, and insights he’s kept close to his chest for years.

Stay tuned for Part 2 being released next week.
