    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. 🎢

    “I Felt Like I Wasn’t Good Enough For Anything” How Heston Changed His Mind, Marriage And Mission Jul 22, 2025
    Show notes

    In this deeply personal episode, I sit down with my close friend Heston Moyers, someone I didn’t expect to become one of the most reliable, loyal, and transformative people in my life. What started as a rocky first impression turned into a brotherhood rooted in honesty, accountability, and unconditional support.
    Heston opens up about surviving a life-altering car accident, his journey through self-doubt, and the pivotal moment that helped him believe he was enough. From shedding 55 pounds to reshaping his mindset, he shares how the Levels retreat and the men who showed up there helped change the trajectory of his life.
    We talk about what real friendship looks like, how powerful it is to have a 2am call friend, and why your circle can either limit or launch you. Heston also reflects on producing this podcast, the stories that shaped him, and how it’s helped him become a better father, husband, and man.
    If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to truly change your life, this one is for you.

    I Thought I’d Never Be an Addict Then I Lost My 20s, My Dad, and My Freedom Jul 15, 2025
    Show notes

    I sat down with Eric Johnson, and I don’t think I was fully prepared for what he would share. His story is one of brutal honesty, unimaginable loss, addiction, prison, and ultimately, redemption.
    Eric takes us into the darkest corners of his past: witnessing a friend take his life, spiraling into meth addiction, and spending nearly a decade behind bars. He opens up about life inside solitary confinement, the trauma that haunted him, and the small, consistent choices that led him back to hope.
    But this isn’t just a story of survival, it’s a story of transformation. From being featured on national news for his crimes to building a life of purpose, Eric has clawed his way back. Today, he’s three years sober, raising his daughter, and helping others break free from addiction through programs like Hope for Prisoners.
    If you’ve ever felt too far gone, this episode is for you. We talk about recovery, self-worth, and how changing your environment can change your life. It’s raw. It’s heavy. But it’s exactly the kind of truth we need to hear.

    Show notes

    In this episode of The Roller Coaster Podcast, I sit down once again with my friend James Dykes, one of the few guests we’ve ever invited back. The first time James shared his story, it reached tens of millions of people across social media. But behind the viral numbers was a man who walked through unthinkable loss, the death of his wife, deep grief, and personal trauma, and still chose to show up with vulnerability and faith.
    This time, we go even deeper. James opens up about the emotional aftermath of sharing his story with the world, the love, the hate, the healing, and the spiritual wrestle that followed. We talk about fatherhood, men’s mental health, navigating grief publicly, and how suffering has shaped his faith and purpose. He shares how his pain has now become a catalyst for writing, for building community, and for stepping into a life of coaching, consulting, and hope.
    If you’re carrying something heavy, this episode is a reminder: you’re not alone.
    James’s honesty will challenge you, comfort you, and move you to believe that beauty still rises from the ashes.

    He Watched His Family Die in Front of Him Then He Met the Killer Face-to-Face Jul 01, 2025
    Show notes

    This is one of the most powerful conversations I’ve ever had on the podcast.
    My guest, Chris Williams, shares the heartbreaking story of losing his pregnant wife and two of his children in a tragic car crash caused by a drunk driver. In a moment that would shatter most of us, Chris did something extraordinary: he forgave the 17-year-old responsible. Not years later… but immediately.
    In this episode, Chris walks us through the unimaginable trauma of that night, the soul-crushing grief that followed, and the quiet, spiritual strength that helped him survive it. We talk about faith, forgiveness, healing, and how to carry deep pain without letting it destroy you. Chris opens up about his journey with mental health, suicidal thoughts, and the life-changing moment he met the boy who took his family away.
    This isn’t just a story about tragedy; it’s a masterclass in grace, resilience, and hope.
    If you’re struggling with grief, anger, or the weight of things you can’t change, this episode will meet you in that place and gently show you the way forward.

    “Don’t Come Up. Send Security.” That Was the Last Text She Got From Her Husband Jun 24, 2025
    Show notes

    In this deeply personal episode of the Rollercoaster Podcast, I sit down with Melissa Methven...a mother, breathwork facilitator, dental professional, and widow as she shares the raw and heartbreaking story of losing her husband Scott to suicide while on a family trip to Maui. What began as a vacation to fulfill a dying father’s wish quickly unraveled into Melissa’s worst nightmare.
    Melissa opens up about the quiet signs of addiction, the unimaginable trauma of that day, and the ripple effects it had on her and her two young children. She speaks with unflinching honesty about grief, guilt, and the isolation that often surrounds men struggling in silence. But this isn’t just a story of loss, it’s one of healing, faith, and rebuilding.
    We talk about how she found breathwork, leaned into community, and slowly learned to move through the pain rather than avoid it. Melissa’s journey is a lifeline for anyone touched by addiction, suicide, or grief.
    If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to survive the unimaginable, this conversation is for you.

    They Told Him His Golf Brand Would Fail Now It’s Taking Over The PGA Tour Jun 17, 2025
    Show notes

    I sat down with Jason Richardson, founder and CEO of Bad Birdie, the boldest brand in golf, to talk about what it really takes to build something that matters. From launching shirts out of his tiny LA apartment to turning heads with wild prints and a wild vision, Jason has built a golf brand that’s not just different, it’s redefining the entire culture.
    In this episode, we go deep. Jason opens up about fatherhood, the emotional weight of building a brand people feel, and what it means to “stay bad” in a world that rewards playing it safe. We talk Shark Tank, near meltdowns, betting on yourself, and why the brand is the business.
    You’ll also hear some hilarious stories, get a behind-the-scenes look at collabs with Taco Bell and YouTube stars like Micah Morris, and learn what Jason would build if Bad Birdie had its own video game or country club.
    This conversation isn’t just about golf or apparel; it’s about showing up differently, taking risks, and creating something unforgettable.

    Ozempic’s Not the Problem! What’s Actually Fuelling the Health Crisis in America | Colby Stringham Jun 10, 2025
    Show notes

    In this episode of the Rollercoaster Podcast, I sit down with my good friend Colby Stringham, someone I deeply respect not just for how he shows up in the world, but how intentionally he takes care of his body, mind, and legacy. Colby’s a former corporate exec turned founder of Heva Health, a company on a mission to build generational health, not just generational wealth.
    We dive deep into the crisis we’re facing in America around food, chronic illness, obesity, and misinformation, and how most of it is preventable. Colby shares powerful stories of patients, parents, and personal experiences that highlight just how much our health choices ripple into our children’s lives. We unpack the truth behind GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, the broken traditional healthcare model, and the small, daily habits that actually move the needle on physical and mental well-being.
    This one’s raw, honest, and full of hope. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed or defeated in your health journey or you’re just ready to take back control, this episode is for you.

    My Childhood Was Stolen. My Future Almost Was Too Until God Interrupted | Daniel Goulding Jun 03, 2025
    Show notes

    In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Daniel Goulding, pastor, father, and survivor for one of the most raw and redemptive conversations I’ve ever had on the show. Daniel shares his journey of being sexually abused as a child, burying that trauma for years, and the chaos that followed from addiction and self-destruction to a near-suicide attempt in a drug dealer’s bathroom. But this story isn’t just about pain, it’s about grace, healing, and transformation.
    Daniel opens up about the moment everything shifted: when he cried out to God, not knowing if He was even real, and felt peace for the first time. We explore the beauty of redemption, what it means to forgive the unforgivable, and how he went from broken addict to preaching the Gospel and baptizing dozens at his own church.
    If you’ve ever doubted God’s presence in your darkest moments, this one's for you. Daniel’s story is proof that there’s always a way back.
    Key Moments:

    I Lost My Baby & Nearly Died But This Nurse’s Gut Instinct Changed Everything | Liz Hartke May 27, 2025
    Show notes

    This is the most vulnerable conversation I’ve ever shared on the podcast. My guest, Liz Hartke, opens up about the day she gave birth to her stillborn son and nearly lost her own life. What unfolded was a series of medical oversights, a last-minute surgery, and a divine moment of surrender that changed everything. Liz shares the harrowing details of hemorrhaging alone in an ER, the nurse who saved her life by speaking up, and the spiritual clarity she gained when she thought she wouldn’t make it home to her children.
    This episode is about more than trauma. It’s about faith in the fire, how God meets us in our darkest hour, and what it truly means to surrender your will. Liz’s story is a testimony to trusting the divine even when the outcome is unknown, and it will shake you, soften you, and maybe even help you find clarity in your own calling.
    If you’re a mother, a leader, or someone wrestling with purpose or grief, this episode is for you.

    A Rare Brain Cancer Took Her Husband But It Gave Her Something Even Deeper May 20, 2025
    Show notes

    In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Heidi Rose, a woman whose story will move you, stretch you, and break you open in all the ways that matter. Heidi lost her husband, Jason, to brain cancer, and the journey there was anything but simple. She opens up about the heartbreaking transformation she witnessed as cancer took over, not just his body, but parts of their shared life. We talk about the night he passed, how their children processed it, and what it means to grieve, rebuild, and keep living.
    But this conversation goes deeper than loss. Heidi speaks about her healing through trauma, through childhood abuse, and through unconventional paths like EMDR, Al-Anon, and plant medicine. She talks about finding her voice, regaining peace, and learning that real love sometimes means letting go.
    This episode is for anyone who's walked through pain they never thought they'd survive. It's for those navigating grief, complex family dynamics, or simply trying to find meaning when life doesn’t go to plan.
    You’ll walk away from this episode changed. I know I did.
    Heidi, thank you for your honesty. Thank you for letting us in.
    This is grief. This is healing. This is the Roller Coaster.
