5 Raw Moments of Unfiltered Chaos: Jack & Mike’s Real Life with Type 1 Diabetes
Description
Ever wondered what happens when two blokes with Type 1 diabetes turn the mics on without a plan? Welcome to pure, unfiltered chaos. In this week’s episode, Mike and Jack catch up after a few mad weeks of illness, insulin changes, and life just… lifing.
From Dexcom delivery dramas to FA First Aid fails (seriously, no diabetes section?!) — this one’s a raw, real look at life with Type 1 diabetes when nothing quite goes right. Jack opens up about his new ADHD diagnosis, Mike reveals he’s now a qualified football coach, and both admit their blood sugars are on a rollercoaster that refuses to stop.
It’s messy, funny, and painfully relatable. You’ll hear about hypos at football, highs at work, sugary tea diplomacy, and how pizza becomes a tactical insulin mission. Basically — no structure, no script, just the two of them chatting absolute T1D chaos.
💬 Highlights:
Mike’s new insulin switch… and why his nights are a hypo marathon
Jack’s Libra frustrations (and evidence file ready for court 🤣)
ADHD diagnosis & how it affects daily diabetes life
Pizza bolus strategy that actually works (kind of)
Random snacks, sugary tea logic, and a few too many jelly babies
