    The Rollercoaster Podcast

    Some things break you open in a way you never fully close back up. The Rollercoaster Podcast sits in that space — the aftermath of loss, trauma, and grief — and asks what it actually takes to keep living after everything falls apart.

    Hosted by Tyler Hall, this show features unfiltered, deeply human conversations with people who’ve survived the unthinkable — the death of a loved one, sudden crisis, abuse, addiction, and the kind of pain that reshapes a life overnight. No polished takes, no tidy lessons. Just honest accounts of what grief actually feels like, and what it looks like to rebuild afterward.

    Born out of a personal crisis that upended Tyler’s own life, The Rollercoaster Podcast has grown into one of the top trauma & grief podcasts globally, with nearly 200 episodes of raw, real storytelling.

    If you’ve ever needed proof that people can survive what feels unsurvivable — that the climb back is possible — this is your show.

    New episodes weekly. 🎢

    Show notes

    Today’s guest on the Rollercoaster Podcast is Shawne "Lights Out" Merriman, a name that has inspired many, including myself, since high school. Shawne was one of my dream guests, and having him on the show is truly special. His story is one of resilience and determination, and hearing him speak firsthand about his journey is as powerful as his impact on the field. Shawne grew up in incredibly challenging circumstances. He shared how, for several years, he, his mother, and his sister were forced to live out of their car. Despite the hardships, Shawne chose to shield this part of his life from college recruiters, fearing they might lose interest if they knew he had no stable home. This determination to succeed against all odds made Shawne the man he is today.

    Shawne’s story is not just about athletic prowess but about a deep, unwavering bond with his family. He talks about his mother, a hardworking woman who juggled multiple jobs to support her children and taught him resilience and gratitude. Shawne recalls an incident where he had to protect his mother and sister, a memory that strengthened his loyalty and determination to look out for them. It’s clear that his family is at the heart of who he is, and their journey together shaped his mindset. This relentless drive is what carried Shawne through his toughest times, including his rise in high school football, where he earned the nickname "Lights Out" for his powerful playing style and relentless energy on the field.

    In the final part of the conversation, Shawne reflects on his professional journey and the highs and lows he faced in the world of professional football. His rise to stardom was nothing short of meteoric, yet he encountered personal and professional challenges along the way. Through it all, Shawne stayed grounded, drawing strength from his roots and his family's support. This episode is a window into Shawne’s life beyond the field—a story of grit, gratitude, and a fierce love for his family. Whether you’re a fan of his career or simply looking for inspiration, Shawne’s journey is sure to resonate deeply.
