Tune in this week to dive deep into the world of diabetes tech with us! We've got a confirmed release date for Omnipod 5 and some exciting news for Tandem T-Slim users.

So, hit play and join us for stories of triumph, tech innovations, and a touch of whimsy!

We're kicking things off with a sneak peek into the soon-to-arrive Libre 2 Plus – spoiler, it's gonna be a game-changer for those on insulin pumps! 😍 Then, get ready to geek out as we chat about a fresh study on how Ozempic could be shaking things up for folks with type 1 diabetes. Curious yet?

Oh, and we take a hilarious detour into the world of diabetes-related dilemmas – like whether you're a sucker or a wiper post-finger-test. And can we talk about the hilarious toddler who's already setting healthcare boundaries with some colourful language. Kids, am I right? 🤣

So grab your headphones, and let's get real about the highs, lows, and everything in between on this wild ride of living with type 1 diabetes.
