Since COVID, this podcast has pretty much been all about the questions that you, the listener, have sent in for Stuart ‘The Wildman' Mabbutt and William Mankelow, the two co-hosts, to conversate around.In every episode, two of these listener questions are discussed, and by sheer coincidence, both questions in today's episode, have come from the same person; Elodie in Brittany, France.The first of Elodie's questions is as follows: “What does the ideal form of government look like, and why?”From this question the conversation begins with an exploration of what constitutes an ideal form of government. Stuart advocates for a system that is fair, progressive, and breaks free from traditional constraints, even referencing John Lydon's controversial support for Donald Trump, as an example of challenging the establishment. William counters with a stark reality check, arguing that Trump causes real harm to working people and asserting that no truly ideal government can exist, due to inherent human disagreement and dissent.The discussion evolves into a fascinating examination of power dynamics, with William drawing unexpected parallels between government structures and the music industry's shift from record label dominance to streaming platform control. Both hosts ultimately agree that effective governance requires balance - strong leadership willing to make difficult decisions, paired with robust opposition ready to find middle ground through reconciliation.The second question from Elodie is “How do names and labels influence our perceptions and reality?William expresses discomfort with gendering non-human objects like hurricanes and ships, leading to a broader conversation about the difference between grammatical gender and sexual identity. Stuart provocatively argues that society's obsession with labeling - whether by profession, sexuality, or identity - may actually hinder progress, rather than advance it.The hosts examine the LGBTQ+ movement through different lenses, with William viewing it as necessary activism against those who deny gender diversity, while Stuart questions whether continued focus on gender categories prevents true social evolution.What do you make of this discussion?

In this powerful episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, dancer, actress, model, and Lyme warrior Renee LeeAnn Marsden shares her extraordinary journey of surviving late-stage Lyme disease, multiple co-infections, and autoimmune encephalitis. Once bedridden, disassociating, and in a wheelchair, Renee fought her way back through a combination of stem cells, peptides, neurofeedback, and faith — and now she's thriving as a mother and advocate. From being misdiagnosed with MS and Parkinson's to discovering mold illness, from devastating Herxheimer reactions to life-changing treatments at Amen Clinics, Renee's story is a beacon of hope for anyone battling chronic Lyme or feeling hopeless in their healing journey.

In a community workshop in Surfers Paradise, a group of men and women build wheelchairs out of discarded bikes, some plywood and BMX tires. And for almost 30 years now, these have been changing the lives of people in need in developing countries all over the world. Franz Huber has been involved in the Surfers Sunrise Wheelchair Trust project of the Surfers Sunrise Rotary Club right from the start. In an interview, he talks about the beginnings and how the volunteers have managed to build over 11,000 wheelchairs to date. - Eine Gruppe von Männern und Frauen baut in einer Gemeinschaftswerkstatt in Surfers Paradise Rollstühle aus ausrangierten Fahrrädern, etwas Sperrholz und BMX-Reifen. Und diese verändern seit jetzt fast 30 Jahren das Leben von bedürftigen Menschen in Entwicklungsländern auf der ganzen Welt . Franz Huber ist von Anfang an in das Projekt des Surfers Sunrise Wheelchair Trust des Surfers Sunrise Rotary Clubs involviert. Im Interview erzählt er von den Anfängen und wie es die Freiwilligen geschafft haben, bis heute über 11.000 Rollstühle zu bauen.

Throughout my medical training, I vow to make an effort to actively pursue each patient's full story. To cleave only the fragments of their existence that anchor them to the hospital room leaves behind parts of our patients, invisible and abandoned. Madeline Blatt reflects on the importance of imagining and investigating the version of the patient who lives outside of the hospital after being discharged. The essay read in this episode was published in the Teaching and Learning Moments column in the July 2025 issue of Academic Medicine. Read the essay at academicmedicine.org.

We cover two listener questions in today's episode, with two guests once again in the Listener's Chair, those being Alex Kauffmann and Suzi Darrington, who sit alongside the regular co-hosts Stuart ‘The Wildman' Mabbutt and William Mankelow.The two questions up for discussion are: “How do technological advancements alter scientific methodologies?” which was sent in by Floss in Gimli, Manitoba, Canada, and “Can ethical consumption ever exist in a capitalistic society?” which was posed by Paul in Queensland, Australia.From Floss's question, Alex feels that technology evolves to become more accurate and precise over time, forcing scientific methodologies to adapt accordingly. Suzi sees positive AI applications in science (early breast cancer detection for example) but is concerned about how it's being used in the creative fields, while Stuart advocates for technology to enhance rather than replace human skills and awareness. William emphasizes viewing AI as a tool rather than a master, for example it can be useful for mentoring when human mentors aren't accessible. He feels it all comes down to how AI is used.Then from Paul's question, William attempts to define ethical consumption by encouraging you to "stop buying crap and just buy what you actually need to exist", while Suzi posits the idea that “ if consumption is ethical, it would have to be good, not just neutral. But she thinks when people criticize consumption under capitalism, the suggestion is that it's not only not ethically good, it's actually ethically bad because it relies on someone's exploitation.” Meanwhile Alex believes that pure ethical consumption under capitalism is impossible, and advocates to be conscious of your environmental impact in consumption decisions. Stuart questions whether anyone is truly outside the capitalist system - he asks "aren't we all in the system?"What do you make of this discussion?

What if your greatest setback became your biggest calling? There are some moments in life that just stop you in your tracks—and this conversation is one of them. I sat down with Dan and Andrea Kotter, a couple whose journey through tragedy, faith, resilience, and relentless love has inspired me to my core. Dan fell 35 feet off a roof and was left paralyzed from the waist down. Andrea met him after the accident, while going through her own unimaginable heartbreak. But neither of them let their pain define them—they chose to build something even greater instead. This isn't just a story about surviving. It's about rebuilding—physically, emotionally, spiritually. Dan could have given up. Instead, he pushed through years of surgeries, chronic pain, and loss, while Andrea stood by his side, not seeing the wheelchair, but the strength that conquered it. They've blended families, faced down trauma, and raised six incredible kids, all while showing up on social media to shine light into other people's darkness. We talked about what it really takes to choose joy when life hands you suffering. How faith—real, grounded, daily faith—can carry you through when nothing else makes sense. How sometimes your life falling apart is exactly what's needed to put you on the path you were meant for. And how you don't need some “perfect” story to make a difference—your real life is enough. Their content has saved lives. It's made broken dads rethink fatherhood. It's helped people believe in God again. That's the power of two people showing up, being honest, and refusing to quit. Dan and Andrea reminded me—and will remind you—that no matter what you're facing, you've got more in you than you think. And you're never alone in the fight. Key Takeaways: The life-changing moment that left Dan paralyzed—and how he chose to respond. Andrea's decision to love a man in a wheelchair after her own heartbreaking trauma. The unshakable role of faith in their healing, growth, and purpose. How authentic social media content can literally save lives. Why real strength means showing up in the struggle, not hiding it. Listen now and share this with someone who needs a reminder that their story still matters. MAX OUT.  

The National Veterans Wheelchair Games is taking over Minneapolis this weekend. It's the largest annual wheelchair sporting event for veterans in the world.

Today we're re-airing a story from tbh that first came out in 2020. It's all about the power of sports to bring people together and why one athlete doesn't want to be called “inspirational.”
