This Week: Zika Virus Alert!!!

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!

Past Episodes

Who is Sickboy Podcast?

Sickboy Podcast is hilarious, ridiculously insightful and absolutely determined to break down the stigma associated with illness and disease! The show started with three best friends who recognized that when faced with difficult situations, illnesses and diseases, people tighten up, they get awkward, and they simply don't know what to say. Taking the lead from Jeremie's life long battle with Cystic Fibrosis, the boys help people understand that sometimes the best way to deal with illness, disease and life is simply to laugh. Join the conversation every Monday over on iTunes, Soundcloud, Google Play or wherever you get your podcast fixin's

When a local Honduran doctor tells you that you "100 percent have Zika", how do you respond? You freak out! Right?!?

When you're chronically ill, you need to have other outlets too - ones that you can use on the days you can't seem to remove yourself from the toilet. Or, maybe you're too tired for any level of social interaction beyond mauling a keyboard. That’s where the art comes in, and also the video games.

Infertility: It's Not You, It's Me

Sep 4, 2017 Sickboy Admin 1 Comment

At the time, we were in the boat of ‘unexplained infertility’ because it wasn’t until we were through our second round of IVF that we found the root cause of our infertility – poor egg quality. By the time that diagnosis came, it meant that our options were limited to donor eggs or embryos.

After the absurdity of the Hentai Porn extravaganza, we went to bed. The next morning we gave what you began listening to when you opened this page. A really amazing and heartwarming conversation about the difficulty we have with talking about tough subjects.

A Delicate Dance Between Humour and Hardship w/ Sunee Dhaliwal

Aug 22, 2017 Sickboy Admin Comment

Performing comedy is a difficult job, epically stand up. Its a tightrope walk between the comedian and audience. This is made even more difficult when the performer is facing hardship in their day to day life.

There’s a mischievous tension in the room. I’m a Reverend sitting with three cool guys, talking
about spirituality, cancer, death… and I’m just waiting for the f-bomb.

The Hypochondriacs

Jul 28, 2017 Sickboy Admin Comment

Every twinge in my stomach, muscle ache, sore throat or itchy nose sends me into panic mode. I started washing my hands to the point of bleeding. Hand washing was the only way I could be in control over the germs.

The Anatomy of a Motorcycle Crash

Jul 24, 2017 Sickboy Admin 1 Comment

In 2009 while riding my motorcycle I was hit by an SUV, I don't remember the accident all I know is from what I was told by my friends who were riding with me that day and family members at the hospital.
