Sickboy

This week on Sickboy the fellas sit down with Kalyn who was once infected with the horrifying and totally dangerous and deadly ZIKA VIRUS! Wait... Zika? Like... the mosquito/sexually transmitted virus Zika? Where you get a rash and some achy joints? And gotta lay down for a day or two? YEAH THAT ZIKA! Oh, and by the way it definitely ain't as bad as you think unless you're looking to get pregnant. In that case DO NOT GET ZIKA!

This week on Sickboy the guys sit down with an 18 year old Knight in shining armour. Literally. Danielle lives with a Mast Cell and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome but that doesn’t stop her from taking part in medieval battles. We dive into the world of L.A.R.P and Brian geeks out a little too much on World of Warcraft. Danielle reminds us of the importance of developing and seeking community in times of need. Oh, and one more thing a real life opera singer stops the studio for a show.

This week on Sickboy we sit down with Haley and talk heart stuff, time bombs and the most ideal place to stick a catheter in your body.

What is a high heart beat? 150 bpm? 180bpm? Try 260….while sitting still….for 6 hours. For Haley, this is all apart of an episode of Supraventricular Tachycardia, or more boringly referred to as SVT. Having to take drugs that give you the feeling of imminent death and shoving catheters up through your crotch are a just a part of the experience. Join us for an ever-riveting conversation about the absurdity of living illness.

This week on Sickboy the guys are schooled on the ways of the woman - it's the ABC's of infertility! Tune in as they learn about Sarah's struggle with making a baby, what is was like founding Google, and oh yeah, spoiler alert... Taylor may or may not know someone going through the same thing.

Buckle up because Taylor and Jeremie are drunk AF and Bri's just trying to be a good listener.

Join Brian, Taylor and Jeremie this week for another HOST EPISODE! This week the fellers find themselves a little out of place and get geeked out shooting the sh*t in front of a live audience at this years Animartime! What the heck is that you ask? The maritimes leading anime and gaming convention, Duh! We dive into Sickboy BINGO, sh*tting the bed when your wife is asleep, our rockstar deaths, sailor moon, a strangers scariest moment of their life and much much more.

Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, ""Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up."" Man bursts into tears. Says, ""But doctor...I am Pagliacci.” - Alan Moore. For this week’s very special episode we speak to Sunee Dhaliwal, Canadian stand up comedian, about life as a touring comedian, using humour and performance to manage grief, the inevitability of offending someone. Check Sunee out on social media @sunnydcomedy.

Ever caught a lethal bacterial infection at a house party before? Of course not, that would be the worst house part ever. Unfortunately, Ian has been to that house party, and he picked up just that - Bacterial Meningitis. What is Meningitis? The hell if we know, that's why we got young Ian to drop by and tell us all about it. Catheters, nightmares, comas, expanding brains...this one's got it all. Enjoy!

We’ve made it Sicko’s! EPISODE 100!?!?! Get ready to get spiritual af! What is life? What is consciousness? What is the soul? What is reality? This week we sit down with David Maginley, M.Div, an interfaith chaplain who offers guidance to those within palliative care. Wait, Sickboy mixed with religion?! Don’t worry there’s not much starch in this clergy man’s collar. He’s not interested in what you believe, he’s interested in the quality of your love. Oh and on top of all that, David has a rare form of cancer that expresses itself not unlike the critically acclaimed Jason Statham film ‘Crank’. A ticking cancer time bomb within his body that once went off and killed him. Yup… David died. But he has risen and sits down with the boys to spread some wisdom and blow some minds. Check out what David is up to and buy a copy of his latest book "Beyond Surviving" over at his website http://www.davidmaginley.com/

What scares you the most? Ghost's? Ghoul's? Goblin's? How about gagging? Welcome to Josh Braveners biggest nightmare... Vomit. This week the fellas chat with The Hypochondriac's front man to talk about life as a touring musician and the challenges one faces when every day you think you're going to get sick. They dive into everything from anxiety & panic attacks to quality beer to anime porn to post hurricane psychedelic's and more. Be sure to check out The Hypochondriacs and catch them on tour this fall if you can! https://thehypochondriacs.bandcamp.com/

This week on Sickboy: Anatomy of a motorcycle crash! We explore the gruelling impact your body takes when it slams violently into the side of a SUV.

Sit down with Taylor, Jeremie, Brian, and special guest, Luke, as they discuss the journey to recovery after a horrendous accident. From losing your sight to having your face surgically removed and screwed back together. This episode is riveting in more ways than one.
