Podcast Tonight Awards 2026

Hosted by Amber Tresca, who lives with ulcerative colitis and a j-pouch, the About IBD Podcast directly addresses the isolating and all-encompassing nature of inflammatory bowel disease by sharing relatable patient and caregiver stories that validate the listener's experience and foster a sense of community. Moving beyond personal narratives, the podcast also features conversations with healthcare providers and experts, delivering practical insights on topics ranging from the latest research and improving patient-physician relationships to critical thinking and healthcare activism. Ultimately, Amber’s mission is to equip those touched by IBD with both the empowering information and the vital sense of connection needed to better navigate the complexities of life with chronic illness.
