In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I catch up on what’s been going on the past few month since the last podcast.  It’s been tough to go through each week without posting new podcast episodes especially when I enjoy listening to many others.

There are some various topics I cover in this week’s episode including my most recent update about juicing with diabetes. I may not be able to get back to a regular schedule for a bit, but plan to do so as soon as possible.

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I catch up with Bill Woods, the Community Manager for Glu.  I’ve known Bill for a while now back when I first started this site online. I remember watching many of Bill’s videos and posts on 1HappyDiabetic.

Bill’s positive energy and great videos are pretty well known online and for a good reason.  I’ve always wondered if Bill was as high energy and upbeat outside of his videos or vlogs.  We cover that and much, much more in this episode.

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I catch up with Mike Hoskins, a fellow long-time type 1 and legit journalist over at Diabetes Mine.  Mike’s background in journalism and life experiences with diabetes make him a perfect addition to Amy’s team of writers.

Mike and I talk through a lot of different topics related to diabetes and the online community. I guess it’s quite ironic that I had a low while out and about right after our conversation and was thinking of what we talked about.

UPDATE: I received a copy of Gary Scheiner’s book on Tuesday and definitely plan to get right into it.

I love having the guests on and it makes my monologues seem that much less interesting. I loved talking with Mike and catching up! …click here to read more

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I catch up on a few things that I’ve wanted to talk about since there is no guest interview this week. I got a question from a listener about heart rate monitors that I discuss about the one I picked. Also in this episode is a good amount of time spent on documentaries especially King Corn that I review.

There are a few items from the news and other podcasts that I plug in this episode if you are interested in the topics. I understand that low carb isn’t for everyone. Is it me or is it just more fun to have a great guest on like Mari last week?

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I talk with Mari Ruddy, the founder and Director of Team WILD and founder of the Red Rider program. I know I say this a lot, but I could have talked with Mari for hours. Over the last year you’ve probably heard me talk about how much I love riding my bike and how great it is for my blood sugars. Talking with Mari has me pumped up and motivated for my upcoming Tour de Cure ride in May where I’ll be doing the 60 mile course.

It is so much fun talking with the guests I’m having on the show and I look forward to each week.  There are things I want to catch up on, but they’re going to have to wait when I’ve got rockstars like Mari queued up.

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I do my first video podcast after 71 episodes with Eric and Lathe, co-creators of the upcoming documentary Carb Loaded. It was so much fun sitting down with these two guys to talk carbs, documentaries, diabetes and much more.  Check out their site and see these two in action in the video updates. I also enjoyed doing the video part of the podcast and want to hear from you if you prefer to see the guests or just want the audio.

This podcast has given me the opportunity to talk with amazing people like Lathe and Eric and bring their stories and info to you. I love this podcast and I love bringing it to you each week! Also, in this episode I give a highly rated review of Scott Benner’s book that’s coming out on April 2nd. It made me laugh out loud (literally) on numerous occasions.  The chapter on marriage was off the charts and worth the price of the book two-fold. …click here to read more

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I spend around 45 minutes talking to a knowledge leader in the diabetes/endocrinology world about old diabetes, new technology, biochemistry and the future of a cure.  At one point early on in the show Dr. Bernstein blew my mind with what he was predicting/seeing for the future in diabetes management.

Check out the notes section below to get links to many of the studies and concepts that Dr. Bernstein and I talked about in this episode.

After the interview I catch up on a few things that were on my mind like: Caffeine, exercise, BG challenges and some things in the news.

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I sit down with Ginger Vieira to talk about emotional eating with diabetes.  This is her second book and a great read about something I never really thought about before.  I know I do things related to food because of diabetes, but when you break it down it’s really eye opening.  The book has awesome excerpts from folks in the diabetes community that I have a lot of respect for like Ginger. Also, stuck in at the end is a little clarification about a comment I made in episode 68 as well as a few updates about my training.

What I love about this podcast is being able to talk with guests who I may not have ever known prior to having this show. As you’ll see in the coming weeks and in this episode, I’m talking with great people and appreciate every minute of it. …click here to read more

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I catch up on a bunch of various topics and questions that were submitted over the past few weeks. I hope everyone had a great New Year’s! Also in this episode is a bit about 2012 and my outlook for 2013. One epiphany I had is around what to do if my pump dies in the near future. I’ve talked about this in a bunch of episodes and on the blog over the years and I think I’ve finally come to a conclusion on what is next for me.

I love getting questions submitted because it tells me what listeners are interested in and how I may be able to provide insight to help people directly.  There were a few great questions that I talk about and how difficult a seemingly easy question can be to answer. Finally, I talk a bit about the book I’ve just finished, what I’m reading now and what may be next.  …click here to read more

In this episode of the Blogging Diabetes podcast I interview Aaron Snyder.  In the show we talk about all of the things that I’m super interested in: health, exercise and diabetes.  I told Aaron after the call that I could literally talk for hours about these things. You will be able to quickly tell how knowledgeable Aaron is about diabetes and how he’s changed his life to overcome type 2 diabetes.

Right after this interview (last week) I ordered Aaron’s book for my Kindle and started it that night.  Simply put, it’s legit! I like the way Aaron tells the information and stories in the book so that anyone can understand the content, which can be pretty technical at times.  More to come on the book in an upcoming episode. …click here to read more
