Diabetes Late Nite Inspired by Dean Martin

We're talking about 50 years of living well with type 1 diabetes, alcohol's effects on blood sugars, sexual wellness, and the Spare A Rose, Save A Child campaign with musical inspiration from Dean Martin.  Dean Martin was born Dino Paul Crocetti and was later nicknamed "The King of Cool." His big break while performing as a duo with comedian Jerry Lewis, diagnosed with type 1 diabetes later in life at the age of 71.  After the two entertainers split in 1956, Dean Martin pursued a solo career. He established himself as a singer, movie, and television star.  Along with the other members of the infamous "Rat Pack", Frank Sinatra, Peter Lawford, Joey Bishop, and Sammy Davis, Jr., he became one of the most popular acts in Las Vegas. With his dark good looks, smooth voice, hilarious one-liners, and ever-present rocks glass, Dean Martin was a walking, talking, singing advertisement for cocktail parties. Guests: Fran Carpentier, Mama Rose Marie, Lynne Steger and Sex Therapist Janis Roszler PhD, CDCES. Throughout this podcast, we will be featuring music from The Essential Dean Martin album courtesy of SONY Music.
