    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 Was 11 When My Dad Died! Here’s What Every Young Man Needs To Hear About Success May 13, 2025
    Show notes

    This one’s personal. In this episode, I sit down with Greg O’Gallagher, founder of Kinobody, fitness expert, and one of the most driven men I’ve ever met, for a raw and honest conversation about legacy, loss, and finding your purpose. Greg opens up about the profound impact his father, Michael O’Gallagher, had on his life before losing him to leukemia at a young age. From building Canada’s largest privately owned real estate company to shaping the mindset Greg carries today, his father’s influence lives on in every rep, every goal, and every moment Greg chooses discipline over ease.
    We talk about grief, growth, and how those pivotal childhood moments still fuel the fire today. Greg also shares how fitness became his outlet for processing trauma, how fasting and breath work changed his life, and the exact framework he uses to stay in peak shape year-round.
    If you’ve ever lost someone too soon or wondered how to stay grounded in your purpose when life hits hard, this conversation is for you.
    This is more than a podcast episode. It’s a conversation about what truly matters.

    I Stayed Silent About My Dad’s Abuse...It Nearly Killed Me! Bruce’s Story of Survival & Redemption Apr 22, 2025
    Show notes

    In this episode of The Roller Coaster Podcast, I sat down with someone whose story shook me to my core, Bruce Pitcher. You might know him from Extreme Weight Loss, but trust me, that’s just the surface.
    Bruce’s journey is one of the most raw and powerful I’ve ever heard. From surviving childhood sexual abuse by his own father, who was later convicted and imprisoned, to living through years of silence, shame, and suicidal thoughts, Bruce opens up about the pain, the survival mode, and the uphill battle to rebuild his life.
    But this is not a story of defeat. It’s one of redemption. Bruce lost over 200 pounds, built a coaching empire, became a father, and, more than anything, reclaimed his identity. In this conversation, he shares the emotional moment his suicide attempt failed and how that “failure” saved his life.
    If you’ve ever felt broken, unseen, or stuck in your past, this episode is a reminder that belief, especially when it’s hard to hold onto, is the most powerful thing you can have.
    This one is heavy. It’s honest. And it just might change how you see yourself.

    Arrested 15 Times in 12 Months! Why Prison Was the Best Thing That Ever Happened | Bryan Wood Apr 15, 2025
    Show notes

    This conversation left me speechless.
    Bryan Wood isn’t just another guy with a “comeback story.” He’s a man who spiraled from elite MMA fighter to opioid addiction, heroin use, and prison time, and somehow rebuilt a life that most would’ve thought was lost forever.
    In this episode, Bryan opens up about how one back injury became the first domino that led to a full-blown opioid addiction, prescription fraud, and eventually a prison sentence. We talked about how addiction hijacks your brain, the terrifying power of withdrawal, and what it really takes to rebuild your life after you’ve lost everything, including your marriage, your career, and your freedom.
    But this isn’t just a story of destruction. It’s a story of radical accountability, hard-earned healing, and hope.
    Bryan spent four years behind bars and used that time to reinvent who he was from the inside out. He journaled every day, wrote newspaper articles, created curriculum for inmates, and faced his darkest truths head-on.
    This is one of the most raw, redemptive, and human conversations I’ve ever had. If you’re struggling, or know someone who is, please listen. Bryan’s story might just be the lifeline you or they need.

    When Addiction Hits Home: What This Cop Saw on the Streets Changed Him Forever Apr 08, 2025
    Show notes

    This conversation left a permanent mark on my heart. In this episode, I sit down with Brock Bevell, former undercover cop, father, and recovering opioid addict, whose raw, unfiltered story is one of pain, purpose, and unbelievable resilience. From being run over during a drug bust to nearly losing his life (and his testicle) to a brutal infection, Brock doesn’t hold anything back. We talk about addiction, the fentanyl crisis sweeping Arizona, and how he clawed his way out of a decade-long opioid addiction after being medically retired from the police force.
    But more than that, Brock shares the mission that drives him today, walking the streets every day, face to face with addiction, offering hope and help to people everyone else has given up on.
    This episode is graphic, emotional, and deeply necessary. Whether you’re a parent, a first responder, or someone who’s faced the dark underbelly of addiction, you need to hear this.
    We talk fentanyl, trafficking, mental health, parenting, and the staggering impact of untreated trauma.

    In this episode, I sit down with CJ and Syd Spjute, the two absolutely radiant souls whose passion for fitness, faith, and family left me deeply moved. Their story isn’t just about shredded physiques or bodybuilding competitions; it’s about transformation from the inside out.

    In this episode, I sit down with Justin Hai, a man whose story redefined what love, devotion, and resilience mean to me. Justin shares the deeply personal journey of his wife Jojo, who survived a traumatic brain injury in college, an event that shaped the rest of their lives. Their love story is raw, powerful, and unlike anything I’ve ever heard. From meeting online to raising a family through adversity, Justin speaks openly about the connection he and Jojo share, one so deep, that it’s as if their souls are tethered.
    We also explore his passion for health and healing, including how cortisol, the stress hormone has quietly become one of the biggest threats to our well-being.

    In this episode, I sit down with Matthew Thomas, a veteran law enforcement officer with over 30 years of experience on the frontlines of America’s battle against the Mexican cartels. From high-speed chases to life-or-death shootouts, from seeing firsthand the devastation of human trafficking to confronting the harsh reality of violent gangs like MS-13, Matt has lived through it all.
    This conversation isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s raw, unfiltered, and deeply personal. Matt opens up about the trauma that comes with the job, the moments that nearly took his life, and the faith that kept him going. We talk about the realities of the U.S.-Mexico border, far beyond what the mainstream media portrays. It’s not just about illegal immigration; it’s about cartels operating with no regard for human life, smuggling drugs, and committing unspeakable crimes on American soil.
