The show will feature Bret talking about:

  • How he leads young diabetics by example: “I try to control the disease as much as I can, instead of the disease controlling me.”
  • How he has balanced the rocker lifestyle and crazy on-the-road schedules with diabetic management for almost four decades.
  • What kept his spirits high after landing in the hospital for both an emergency appendectomy and subarachnoid brain hemorrhage.
  • A new rocker-chic diabetic lifestyle kit to hold all your diabetic supplies designed by Bret himself.

Bret is well known for supporting diabetes charities – he once won $500,000 for the American Diabetes Association on Celebrity Apprentice, with a donation of $250,000 coming from Snapple to go towards researching a cure for the condition. He also played on Don’t Forget the Lyrics, where he won $250,000 for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
