This week is all about the current state of nursing in North America. Jer and Tay are joined by a special co-host, Keara, a CVICU nurse in Halifax. They are joined by Chelsea, a registered nurse fresh out of the ICU post-COVID-19 pandemic! Living in Edmonton, Alberta. Jer and Tay sit back and let Chelsea and Keara break down how nurses in Canada are underpaid and overworked. Burnout is at an all-time high and it’s having a direct impact on our health.

Chainsmoking While Running a Marathon - Feel Good Friday LIVE in Ottawa

Sickboy is the only place where terminal diagnoses can peacefully coexist with jokes we probably shouldn't make. Hosted by three best friends, Jeremie, Brian, and Taylor, this show smashes taboos around illness, death, and everything in between. Inspired by Jeremie’s life with Cystic Fibrosis, we dive headfirst into the uncomfortable, the hilarious, and the heartbreaking. We talk to people living with everything from chronic disease to catastrophic injury, mental health struggles to medical miracles - and we do it with radical empathy, zero BS, and the kind of unfiltered jokes that get us kicked out of support groups. If you’ve ever felt weird, broken, or like no one gets it, welcome. New episodes drop every Wednesday. Pull up a seat; it’s gonna get real.Follow Sickboy on Instagram &amp; TikTok!
