Diabetes Nerd
Seriously? Another diabetes podcast? Yup. I couldn't help myself: I love talking about real life with type 1 and type 2 diabetes with friends, strangers, colleagues, and clinicians. Why not record these chats and share them with you?
No Scripts. Very little planning. Definitely zero editing.
This podcast is simply a real conversation about life with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
