In classic Two Disabled Dudes fashion, the episode opens with a hilariously painful recounting of bloodwork gone wrong. Kyle survives a multi-day ordeal involving broken systems, pre-dawn wake-ups, and a forgotten ID, while Sean’s appointment gets derailed by a national holiday his lab forgot existed. Moral of the story: get your labs done early—or prepare for a side quest no one asked for.Things shift from comedy to clinical trials with guest Kendall Davis, a rare disease advocate and engagement strategist who knows how to bridge the gap between pharma and real life. She shares how meaningful patient input—before a trial starts—can make or break its success, and why things like meals, Wi-Fi, and basic communication should never be afterthoughts.Kendall doesn’t shy away from the big questions either—like why the FDA offers “guidance” instead of hard rules, and how that leaves too much room for interpretation. It’s clear she’s doing the work to make trials more human, but whether the industry will keep up is a cliffhanger we’re still waiting to resolve.Links and Resources<ul><li><a href="https://www.iconplc.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ICON</a></li><li><a href="https://teamtelomere.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Team Telomere</a></li></ul>
