Samantha Walsh has lived with type 1 diabetes for over five years since 2017. After her T1D diagnosis, she was eager to give back to the diabetes community. She is the Community and Partner Manager for T1D Exchange and helps to manage the Online Community and recruit for the T1D Exchange Registry. Prior to T1D Exchange, Samantha fundraised at Joslin Diabetes Center. She graduated from the University of Massachusetts with a Bachelors degree in sociology and early childhood education.
This quarter of Diabetes Self-Management had an article on podcasts and blogs. Several were listed so I listened to two so far. The first was “TheHuddle,” while interesting geared towards Diabetes Care and Education Specialists,” after a few episodes went on to “Juicebox.” This seems to be geared to younger TYPE 1, but the information is good. So far one of the guests was a young lady experiencing “body transmorphia,” in my words a self destructive feeling towards her body, along with TYPE 1. But the host is easy to listen to, thus far varied guests, and I’ve gotten a few ideas that may help my own care. There’s more podcasts listed I’m going to go through.
I listen to Juicebox and TCOYD. Both have lots of good information and are well done. With Juicebox, I find the interviews interesting, learning about different folks and how they live with T1D. The host, Scott Benner, also does short podcasts with Jenny Smith who has T1D and is an CDE, and more. I really have learned a LOT of ways to cope and manage my T1D from this podcast. Also, it is not just for younger folks like mentioned in previous post, I am 64. Check out the website, there is so much info there!
I listened to Juicebox extensively for a few months. Now only once in a while when I see a particular topic of interest. I think they are very helpful in getting information out initially to the newly diagnosed, but after a T1D person gets their numbers down and unless looking for significant improvement, they don’t have as much impact as online or in-person groups like TUDiabetes, FUD Diabetes Forum, LoopandLearn, etc.
I should have also mentioned TCOYD! Dr’s Edelman and Pettus have a good balance of serious discussion, currency, and humor that is good at communicating, and though obviously impacted by sponsors have a reputation for a fairly balanced presentation.
I don’t listen to, or watch any podcasts. I’m not technologically savvy. T1D Exchange is my the only diabetes related site in which I partake. I keep myself busy enough where I don’t want to spend any more time on the computer.
I wear a blue tooth, have PODBEAM downloaded on my phone. While walking my herd, driving to work, or yesterday painting have them on. Admittedly I may miss something while concentrating on something else (like had to look up the definition of “algorithm” because I just missed it) but even half listening it’s good.
At 62 not as astute with technology as my 20 year old nephews but at least beats bordom.
Yes! Great place to get support, newest information, and connections! Beta Cell with Craig Stubbing, new TCOYD, Real-life Diabetes. Some are more basic than others and I’m not a fan of the podcasts lead by parents who have children with T1. They seem more annoying, controlling and intrusive but I listen when they have important speakers.
My thoughts also. Listening to voice is not my forte.
I’d rather read something and make sure I understand it correctly or watch a grand rounds or conference online that can be replayed.
Thanks for the tip on Samantha Farley’s YouTube channel! Just checked it out. Does she actually say she’s Chris Farley’s daughter? My husband went to college with him and didn’t think he had any kids? He said he had a bunch of brothers, though, so perhaps she is his niece?
But as TomH mentioned TCOYD! Dr’s Edelman and Pettus are entertaining and educational in the best traditions of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, Chris Farley and David Spade, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, et al. (^ω^)
I listen to the Juicebox podcast and Diabetes Connections. Juicebox has been very helpful since my dx 2 years ago and Diabetes Connections has great news about technology and other issues important to T1s.
It’s been a while, but I enjoy the “Juicebox Podcast.” I met the gentleman who does them at a diabetes event before COVID. He is very nice, and his podcast is very enjoyable.
Love Podcast after 30 years with diabetes I’ve learned more in the last 12 months from Podcast, especially Juicebox. This is in order of my favorite
#1. Juicebox Type 1 Diabetes
#2. The Sugar Mama’s
#3. This is Tupe 1

Juice box and TCOYD.

The Diabetes Psychologist and TCOYD.
I love the Insuleoin Podcast and the new TCOYD podcast

Diabetes in the news.
Yes! Great place to get support, newest information, and connections! Beta Cell with Craig Stubbing, new TCOYD, Real-life Diabetes.

My hearing isn’t so great, I’d rather read.
I don’t have blocks of time I can listen, but I do look for the transcripts and read through those if the topics are of interest and use to me.
Yes!! Redefining Diabetes The insuleoin podcast!! I highly recommend it.
Diabetes Connections, excellent podcast!!
I would rather read something than listen to a podcast.
My thoughts also. Listening to voice is not my forte.

Me too. I am not an auditory learner. I must see and do to learn. I only get small portions of what I hear. I too would rather read it than watch it.
Juice Box Podcast
I love TCOYD and listen to some of the Juicebox Podcast, but not every episode.
The ones I listen to are Juicebox podcast with Scott Beener, Diabetes Connections with Stacie Simms, and ADA Diabetes Core.
I forgot to mention that I also listen to Diabetes Connections

I am a reader, not a listener.
But as TomH mentioned TCOYD! Dr’s Edelman and Pettus are entertaining and educational in the best traditions of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, Chris Farley and David Spade, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, et al. (^ω^)
Funny you mentioned Chris Farley as his daughter is a type 1 and she recently started her own youtube channel. Her name is Samantha Farley.
No, I haven’t found anything interesting.
I listen to TCOYD (Take Care of Your Diabetes), Diabetes Connections, and on youtube: Diabetes Daily Digest, Nerdabetic and a few others.
Juicebox Podcast is life changing.
