Trying Not To Die

Trying Not to Die is a bi-weekly video podcast hosted by Jack Osbourne and Ryan Drexler, where caffeine meets chaos and survival is the point. Expect unfiltered conversations, high-performance hot takes, and deep dives into aging, recovery, wellness, mental performance and everything we're doing to cheat death (or at least slow it down).From mad-scientist doctors and longevity junkies to artists, athletes, and off-beat thinkers, Jack and Ryan explore what it really takes to stay strong, sharp, and a little wild in your 20s, 30s, 40s, and beyond. This isn't a self-help show, it's a low-pressure hang with two curious minds, trying new things and asking the questions we all wonder but rarely say out loud. Powered by Cave Man Coffee.

    Howie Mandel Talks OCD and Conspiracy Theories

    In this episode of Trying Not to Die, Jack Osbourne and Ryan Drexler sit down with the legendary Howie Mandel for one of the most honest and eye-opening conversations yet. Howie opens up about living with OCD, anxiety, and intrusive thoughts, and what it's really like inside his mind. From debilitating panic attacks to years of hiding his diagnosis, he shares how a moment on radio changed everything and helped him realize he wasn't alone. The conversation dives deep into mental health, fear, and the reality of coping with something that doesn't just "go away." Howie explains the difference between everyday habits and true OCD, and why understanding that distinction matters more than people think.  Along the way, the conversation touches on growing up without mental health awareness, coping with germophobia, raising kids with similar struggles, and the importance of removing the stigma around mental health. Howie offers a powerful perspective on fear. Not as something to avoid, but as the very force that drives people forward in life.   Thank you to our sponsors: -Need Delicious Coffee?
