When Memories Fade: Tough Conversations Around Alzheimer’s

The harsh reality of Alzheimer’s, its evolving research, and the emotional toll on caregivers.

Welcome back to Dead Serious, where we tackle life’s toughest conversations with brutal honesty and a touch of dark humor. In this episode, we dive deep into the devastating impact of Alzheimer’s—what it does to the brain, how families cope, and the latest research that’s challenging everything we thought we knew.

From theories about Alzheimer’s being an autoimmune disease to the eerie connection between sugar and cognitive decline, we pull no punches in discussing the science, the heartbreak, and the unexpected moments of humor that arise in the face of it all.
