About this episode
Mike Garrison shares his journey of overcoming a life-changing injury through comedy and fatherhood.
In this episode of The Wheelchair Round Table , we sit down with Mike Garrison — a stand-up comedian, husband, and proud dad of twins who’s redefining what it means to roll through life with purpose and humor. After a life-changing motocross accident left him paralyzed, Mike faced a completely new reality. But instead of backing down, he leaned in — building a family, embracing fatherhood from a wheelchair, and finding his voice in comedy. Mike shares the raw truth about his injury, what it took to start a family post-accident, and the real-life moments of being a “wheelchair dad.” He opens up about how comedy became his outlet, his therapy, and ultimately his platform to connect, inspire, and make people laugh. And in a full-circle moment, Mike talks about getting back on a motorcycle — exactly 15 years to the date of his injury — proving that fear doesn’t get the final say. This episode is real, unfiltered, and full of perspective — with plenty of laughs along the way. Facebook: Mike Garrison IG: mikegarrison247
