Absolutely brilliant. Thank you thank you thank you
Description
What the Ef?! is the podcast that says out loud what everyone else with epilepsy is thinking: WTF is happening right now?! Hosted by Landis Wiedner, this show unpacks the unfiltered, often hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking realities of life with epilepsy. Each week, Landis brings together neurologists, advocates, celebrities, caregivers, and everyday people to share raw stories, expert insights, and those “you-can’t-make-this-up” epilepsy moments no one talks about—but everyone should.
It’s equal parts education, community, and comic relief. Whether you’re living with seizures, supporting someone who is, or just curious to learn more, this show creates an approachable, stigma-busting space where laughter and real talk fuel change.
⚡ Epilepsy • Seizures • Awareness • Advocacy • WTF moments ⚡
Special thanks to SK Life Science and Neurelis for sponsoring 2024 and supporting conversations that matter.
