Right on Hereford, Left on Boylston: From the Boston Marathon to Stage IV Cancer

With the 130th Boston Marathon running on Patriots' Day, Monday April 13th, 2026, we have the Boston Marathon Episode on this month's episode of The Butterfly Pavilion Podcast. Ty's son's Jesse and Keenan join dad to talk about Ty's FIVE Boston Marathon's, some marathon tips you've never perhaps heard of or don't want to know about the race, the 2013 "bombing year" of the Marathon and of course all sorts of tangents. Ty tries to stump the boys with The Butterfly Pavilion Podcast Movie Quotes. Footnote: Ty incorrectly calls it the 100th running and of course it's the 130th running of the Boston Marathon.  Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2507622/fan_mail/new] Connect with us * Instagram: @butterflypavilionpod [https://www.instagram.com/butterflypavilionpod/] * YouTube: @ButterflyPavilionPod [https://www.youtube.com/@ButterflyPavilionPod] * TikTok:  @butterflypavilionpod [https://www.tiktok.com/@butterflypavilionpod] * Find Ty on Twitter/X: @seeksboston26mi [https://x.com/seeksboston26mi?lang=en] * Email us: butterflypavilionpod@gmail.com [butterflypavilionpod@gmail.com]

The Long Covid Kaleidoscope: A Conversation With David Putrino

Ty flies solo on this episode in an interview with Long Covid expert, David Putrino. David is the Director of Rehab Innovation at Mount Sinai New York City and Assoc. Prof. at Mount Sinai Rehab for Icahn Mount Sinai and one of Seeking Boston's (Ty's) Long Covid super heroes--specifically "Batman." We cover a range of topics concurrent with Long Covid Awareness Month (March '26) including the multiple hats Putrino wears, and the confluence of long Covid (and cancer) symptoms that Ty refers to as a Long Covid Kaleidoscope with different (symptom) prisms on a given day, hour, week, and month in the life of long Covid.  A few links we referenced in the episode (we weren't able to cover all the promising trials that David is involved with.)

We Want Them Infected: An Interview with Author Jonathan Howard

Jonathan Howard, Neurologist and Psychiatrist from New York City's Langone and Bellevue Hospital joins the Butterfly Pavilion to talk about his book; "We Want Them Infected" which was the mantra of many characters at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic--many of those "comic book villains" are now in the United States Health and Human Services. We discuss his book and the "Great Barrington Declaration" which. like Project 2025 is a bit of a pseudoscience hymnal that was meant to provide sparce restrictions for the Covid-19 Pandemic.  Dr Howard was on the "front lines" of the onset of the pandemic at NYC's Bellevue Hospital. We talk about that experience and the injection of that pseudoscience in the vaccine schedule and guidance.  The Butterfly Pavilion Podcast is a father and daughter podcast about his stage IV cancer journey and trying to find light in darkness along the journey. Ty also has long Covid.  Ty's long Covid journey started in early 2020 with a mild onset of Covid but within six weeks, he could no longer run. He endured a 100 day fever that year that lead to a long medical journey seeking answers at National Jewish Health, Mayo Clinic, and RTHM Long Covid Clinic. His long Covid diagnosis includes damage to his body; neuropathy, vasculitis, endothelial and mitochondria damage, blood clots, and inflammation. With a broken immune system his oncology team said that it either caused or exacerbated his stage IV cancer.  Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2507622/fan_mail/new] Connect with us * Instagram: @butterflypavilionpod [https://www.instagram.com/butterflypavilionpod/] * YouTube: @ButterflyPavilionPod [https://www.youtube.com/@ButterflyPavilionPod] * TikTok:  @butterflypavilionpod [https://www.tiktok.com/@butterflypavilionpod] * Find Ty on Twitter/X: @seeksboston26mi [https://x.com/seeksboston26mi?lang=en] * Email us: butterflypavilionpod@gmail.com [butterflypavilionpod@gmail.com]
