  • Can’t get past the obnoxious host

    Subscribed to this podcast early on and never got much out of it as a longtime t1, it is extremely parent-centric and the host is very dismissive of the experience of actually having the disease. But wow, it has apparently gone way downhill since I last listened.

    A recent episode started auto playing and it was mostly the host ranting about people daring to give critical reviews - “ohhh so you don’t like the chitchat? How else am I supposed to make this silly woman feel comfortable talking to me... more

  • Amazing

    I was diagnosed in 2021, and my mom introduced me to this podcast a little bit ago to help me handle my diabetes. It really helped me when I went to a diabetic sleep away camp. It taught me that pre bolusing really helps, and that you should try to maintain your blood sugar. It helped my A1C go down to a 6.0. My endo was really proud, and I told her that I listened to the Juicebox podcast. Then I told my friends. The said it really helped them get there blood sugars in range.

    I love this podcas... more

    I have Type 1 Diabetes and I was diagnosed on December 8, 1990. I just started listening to the podcast on May 22, 2026 and far I have been enjoying the podcast alongside the guests. I have been listening to this podcast on IHeart Radio and I am looking forward to subscribing it on December 8, 2026 which is my diagnosis date which I will have for 36 Years this year. I also attended the JDRF One Walk every year with my family.

  • Invaluable

    Idc how corny it sounds. Juicebox podcast literally saved my sanity and my son’s health. Our medical team provided no additional information besides basic brochures about type 1 diabetes. I had to take the initiative to join Facebook groups, and started listening to this podcast. I have never listened to any podcast before, but I thankfully learned about Juicebox podcast pretty early on. I can’t say enough good things about all of the information I have learned here. The bold beginning series wa... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#1943 Both Feet on Both Pedals
Q: What was the biggest breakthrough in your process that changed how you manage your diabetes?
Transitioning from open-loop to closed-loop testing after stabilizing basal and recognizing the limitations of trying to optimize in closed loop. The real breakthrough was using the AI-guided analysis to tune basal, carb ratios, and sensitivity, then moving to an open-loop approach to gather clean data before reattempting closed loop with better parameters.
#1943 Both Feet on Both Pedals
Q: What sparked you to start using AI to help manage your diabetes data?
I had a professional background in AI and control systems, and I saw the potential to digest massive amounts of data quickly. I began with a comprehensive briefing to an AI model about my loop setup, data sources, and documentation, then iterated to see what could help optimize my diabetes management.
#1938 Good at Talking to People - Part 1
Q: What was the turning point that pushed you to start a podcast rather than continue just blogging?
The realization that the internet could amplify reach far beyond his immediate circle—several early adoptions and a pivotal panel with Katie Couric's team helped him see that talking to people and telling stories could scale and empower many more families dealing with Type 1 diabetes.
#1938 Good at Talking to People - Part 1
Q: Could you tell me the origin story of the podcast?
Scott explains how the podcast grew from Arden's Day and a personal blog into a broader mission after experiences with blogging conferences, Sanofi involvement, and a pivotal moment when Katie Couric encouraged him for talking to people. He describes discovering that sharing practical, hopeful, and actionable diabetes information could help a wide audience, which led to the move into podcasting and eventually monetization through ads.
#1933 Blinded by the Light - Part 2
Q: How did you get involved with the podcast and the community around it?
The guest describes discovering the podcast through a physician and then adopting its practical guidance on insulin timing, basal management, and pre-bolusing, which sparked a lifestyle change and a commitment to sharing what he learned with others.
