Welcome to Pain-Bytes, a bite-sized extension of The Pain Game Podcast! Hosted by our wild and crazy, Lyndsay Soprano, these drop every Friday and serve up small but mighty dose of real talk. Whether it’s chronic pain, emotional chaos, unexpected wins, or everything in between—this is the space to say it out loud and be heard. 

Each Pain-Byte lets you in on a moment (or meltdown) from your week—because pain “bytes” but also…life bites back.  

Lyndsay is also calling on YOU—our VIPs—to submit your wins, losses, struggles, celebrations, and everything in between. Whether it’s a DM, email, or voice memo, let’s share the load and spread some light.

Because here, you are seen, heard, and held—even if it’s just for a byte.

y tex little.

and or you wins loves amazingness.

sent to me.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
I want to hear about your week. I want to
know what's alien you.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
I also want to know it's making your life rock.
And if you cannot find something that rocked this week,
then you're probably listening to the wrong show. So this
episode has nothing to do with you, unless now you
have decided to rock just in this pain bite of
a month.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
So if that's the case, then okay, disregard what I
just said.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
So send me voice notes, send me emails, dm me,
do it. Get in gaged because we have so much
amazing stuff that's coming through season three and also season four, season.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Okay, until the end of time, We're only going to
be doing amazing here, So talk to me.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Let's have your voice be heard, even.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
If it's just, oh my god, I can't believe I'm
saying this, even if it's just for a bite.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
So here's my quick bite, all right. I woke up
on Monday morning unable to walk.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
I crawled on the bedroom floor to our bathroom, then
to my bathtub, and I poured an entire bag of
magnesium salts from rooted in into my tub and soaked.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
I was wheelchair bound all.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Day, and I still found ways to love my day
and love my life, even though I wanted to chop
both of my legs off and perhaps the legs of
a few other people. So the good news is I
didn't end up doing those things or end up.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
On the news with Look.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
And if you guys have been listening long enough, you
know that my sweetie is in the news business with
by proxy. I am so I really want him to
have to report on his wife cutting her legs off.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
I mean it would probably be a good story, though.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
So in typical Lindsay farm, I trooped, I cried, I
was grumpy. I had a very short fuse. I may
have slammed a cupboard or.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
Eight.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
In frustration, my back hurt, I was on ice, my
feet were burning, their bright red then their purple. My
bones felt like they were going to shatter. And to
make things worse, the season finality of Yellow Jackets on
a Kulu disappointed me. There's my pain bite, So shoot
me an email at Linda at the Pain Game Podcast
