Our Story

Born from Sickboy

Our journey into health-focused production started with Sickboy—a podcast that broke ground by tackling illness, disability, and health topics with honesty, humor, and humanity. Over years of creating that show, we learned something powerful: audio is uniquely suited to telling health stories.

The intimacy of the medium creates space for vulnerability. The long-form format allows for nuance and complexity. And the portable nature means these important conversations can reach people during their daily lives—commuting, exercising, doing dishes—times when they're genuinely open to listening.

Organizations began approaching us: health charities, research institutions, advocacy groups. They all had the same challenge—important work that deserved more than a tweet or a brochure. They needed a way to truly connect with audiences who would care, if only they had the chance to really understand.

Each episode is strategically structured to educate while entertaining, making complex medical realities accessible and deeply human.
