    This week's episode has a heap of exciting news from the American Diabetes Association's Scientific Sessions, including updates from Medtronic, Tandem, and the company making inhalable insulin!

    And of course there's the launch of the brand new Barbie that has type 1. She wears a CGM, an insulin pump, and carries her phone in her handbag to check her blood sugar! Adam, Carly and Benjamin discuss what this icon means for the community, and how many conversations it started with the public more broadly!

    Yes, you read that right. The drug company Sanofi has sponsored the production of a song all about type 1, performed by an all-female, all-type-1 cast! It left the crew lost of words, so you'll have to listen for yourself.

    There's also news from Tandem about a new infusion set, and Adam recounts his close call with food poisoning - for a meal he'd already bolused for!

    Join us as we tackle the highs and lows of Type 1 life, share some laughs, and maybe learn a thing or two along the way.
