Halifax, NS · What it's actually like to be sick
New Wednesdays · Apple · Spotify · CBC
Jeremie, Brian & Taylor say the stuff you're not supposed to say out loud — about chronic illness, disability, death, and every weird thing a body can do — then make it the best laugh of your week. 900+ episodes deep.
Sickboy started in 2015 when Jeremie Saunders, a Halifax actor living with cystic fibrosis, pulled his two best friends, Brian Stever and Taylor MacGillivary, into a conversation people usually avoid.
The show talks to people living with chronic disease, catastrophic injury, mental health, caregiving, sex, grief, and all the strange body stuff that does not fit polite small talk.
Illness is serious. People are still funny, complicated, scared, bored, horny, angry, and alive.
Three friends from Halifax — two with fully operational bodies, one running the trial version — and a camera nearby whenever the mic’s off. No pity script.

Record on your phone. No setup, no script, no good lighting required.
The thought that feels too weird for the waiting room. That one.
A real person reviews every message. Some make it into an episode.
New episode every Wednesday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and CBC Listen. Hit play wherever you already keep your feed — everything else lives down in the footer.
Jeremie, Brian & Taylor drag the whole show onstage — keynotes, fireside chats, live tapings, and health-care workshops. Illness without the pity, grief without the performance, and jokes that make the hard parts easier to say out loud.
