Of course, Daryl has accomplished a ton after that burst of fame as a child actor, including most recently becoming a father to 2 children with his wife, Meghan Trainor. I invited Daryl on the show to discuss the variety of wellness efforts Daryl has made in his personal life, from ice baths to waking up very early in the morning and so much more.Follow Daryl here: https://www.instagram.com/darylsabara/Executive Producer and Host: Doctor Mike VarshavskiProduced by Dan Owens and Sam BowersArt by Caroline WeigumCONTACT: [email protected]

Her audience of nearly 50 million TikTok followers and 10 million YouTube subscribers has fallen in love with her characters and skits. While her content may be funny, she's had to battle some very serious issues throughout her life, ranging from eating disorders to depression. I was very grateful Kris took to the time to come on the show and discuss this at length.FOLLOW KRIS:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiciOsypkXcqSFqSPd-NRVATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kallmekris?lang=enIG: https://www.instagram.com/kriscollins/?hl=enExecutive Producer and Host: Dr. Mike VarshavskiProduced by Dan Owens and Sam BowersArt by Caroline WeigumCONTACT: [email protected]

Watch the full video interview with Dr. Ed Hope here: https://go.doctormikemedia.com/youtube/EdHopeEd Hope is an emergency room physician in the UK and a popular YouTube creator who specializes in reaction videos to medical drama and medical memes. Funny enough... so do I. That was the source of some YouTube "beef" that emerged between us a few years ago. Ed made his way to NYC to come on The Checkup so we could hash things out between us and finally lay the issue to rest. We also debated the differences between the US and the UK healthcare system, and which specialty is better: EM or FM.Follow Ed Hope on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/@DrHopeSickNotesExecutive Producer and Host: Dr. Mike VarshavskiProduced by Dan Owens and Sam BowersArt by Caroline WeigumCONTACT: [email protected]

As one-half of the prolific horror YouTube duo, Sam and Colby, he's no stranger to terrifying paranormal and terrifying supernatural phenomena. He was a stranger to the testicular cancer diagnosis he received just a few months ago. So today I wanted to sit down and dig deep into the history of Colby's case, look as his medical records, and help him make some very difficult devisions about his own health.Executive Producer and Host: Dr. Mike VarshavskiProduced by Dan Owens and Sam BowersArt by Caroline WeigumCONTACT: [email protected]

Quite the combination of accolades. Steve started his shoe empire hustling his designs in New York City until one day he came in contact with Jordan Belfort, The Wolf Of Wallstreet. Jordan helped Steve take his shoe company public, raise millions of dollars, but broke the law along the way, landing Steve in federal prison for 41 months. Today I talked to Steve about his time in prison, his philosophy in designing shoes, his addiction to nose spray, his struggles with sobriety, and the amazing work he's doing getting former inmates back on their feet when they finish their prison sentences.Executive Producer and Host: Dr. Mike VarshavskiProduced by Dan Owens and Sam BowersArt by Caroline WeigumCONTACT: [email protected]

Watch the full video interview with Joey Sasso here: https://go.doctormikemedia.com/youtube/JoeySassoVODJoey Sasso was the winner of The Circle season 1 on Netflix and has gone on to appear in several other reality and dating shows on Netflix like The Perfect Match... but what kind of effect does that have on a person? Fame, money, and glory are all things Joey wanted, but it turns out they came at an unexpected cost. I was a huge fan of Joey's and after circling each other for years we finally pulled off an interview so I could get inside the head of this upstate New York kid from the inner city. We discussed his extreme battle with mental health and addiction, his bruised upbringing boxing in Syracuse, the incredible drive he had to be an actor in Hollywood, and how pivoting to a life in reality tv was one of the most unexpected and fascinating decisions he's ever made.Follow Joey Sasso:IG: https://www.instagram.com/joeysasso/Twitter: https://twitter.com/joey_sassoTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@joeysassoo?lang=enExecutive Producer and Host: Dr. Mike VarshavskiProduced by Dan Owens and Sam BowersArt by Caroline WeigumCONTACT: [email protected]
