Diabetes is hilarious.
Type One is a comedy web series that uses humor to raise awareness and break stereotypes about Type 1 diabetes. After successfully funding a Kickstarter in 2015, Wiedner and co-creator Mike Seskauskas ran a writers' room to create and produce season one. Its expected release is Fall of 2016.
