3D Printed Death Pods - The Future Of MAID?

Jer is almost a week into dosing Trikafta. No big purge of mucous like he expected... however he is noticing something different about his willymilk. Speaking of willymilk, turns out Viagra could be the next big breakthrough in Alzheimer's treatment! Turns out there is a 69% decrease in Alzheimer's from the blue pill. And that stat is not a joke. You know what else is not a joke? 3D printed "suicide" pods. The Swiss may be including these pods in their Medical Assistance In Dying program. They look like the future, but they also seem a bit too chique. In other news, Xenobots could destroy the world... or destroy cancer? And we begin a new segment called: Ding Dong of the week!

Life, Positivity, and Why You Are Awesome w/ Neil Pasricha

This week on Sickboy, the guys sit down with New York Times bestselling author, Neil Pasricha, to chat about life, positivity, perspective and RESILIENCE. From Neil, ""We are lucky. For most of us, famine, plague, economic depression, and other life-threatening catastrophes are the stuff of history books. We’re living in an era with the highest-ever rates of longevity, education, and wealth. Cars drive us home as our phones entertain us before we arrive to food delivered to the front door. We have it all! But there’s just one side effect. We no longer have the tools to handle failure...or even perceived failure. When we fall, we lie on the sidewalk crying. When we spill, we splatter. When we crack, we shatter. We are turning into an army of porcelain dolls. A rude email from the boss means calling in sick. Only two likes on our post means we don’t have friends. Cell phones show us we’re never good enough. Yesterday’s butterflies are tomorrow’s panic attacks. Record numbers of students have clinical anxiety. And what about depression, loneliness, and suicide? All rising! What do we desperately need to learn? RESILIENCE. And we need to learn it fast."" We explore this and many other ideas in this incredibly thoughtful and eye-opening conversation with our new best friend, Neil Pasricha.

Why We Sound Like a Wounded Animal When We Bend Over: Middle Age BS

The boys tackle the hilarious and often mortifying topic of the "middle-aged groan." You know the one — that strange noise you make when you bend over to pick something up, or stand up from a chair? Did you hear about the latest scientific discoveries from Beethoven's hair which has been preserved for almost 200 years? It turns out that Beethoven's chronic drinking, hepatitis B infection, and genetic risk for liver disease were likely the culprits behind his demise. Endo makes sex painful so someone made a product called an OhNut to help. It looks kinda fun! Total Recall is just around the corner — GET INTO THE CHOPPA... oh wait that's Predator. Finally, we go down a CRACKING good rabbit hole. RingDinger baby. Join the post-episode conversation over on Discord! https://discord.gg/expeUDN
