About this listen
- Listener discretion is advised. Eric’s story is raw, real, and unforgettable. After surviving two major crashes that left him with spinal cord injuries, he takes us inside the highs and lows of rehab—sharing how medication-induced hallucinations tested his mind, and how humor became his tool to calm others and himself. He recalls the unlikely moment that changed everything: eating a hamburger that reignited his drive to push through therapy and fight for independence.
- Eric also gets brutally honest about the personal challenges—missing his divorce court date while hospitalized, living in a nursing home for six months, and finding friendship in a resident named Maria. To close the episode, Eric and Danny break stigma wide open with a no-holds-barred discussion about sexuality after spinal cord injury—covering intimacy, fertility, precautions, and possibilities. Unfiltered and unapologetic, Eric proves that life after injury is still full of fight, love, laughter, and real talk.
