  • Gut Check: The Hidden Dangers of Acid Reflux — and How You Can Fight It
    Jan 20 2026

    Dr. Mills is joined by celebrity nutritionist and gut-health expert Dr. Daryl Gioffre to break down what’s really driving America’s acid reflux epidemic—and why the root cause is often too little stomach acid, not too much. After revealing the deeply personal story that pushed him into this work following his father’s battle with esophageal cancer, Dr. Gioffre shares practical strategies to support digestion and protect the esophagus — from the “three-hour rule” before bed to simple soothing tools like teas, honey, and magnesium. The conversation also gets into why sugar is so hard to quit, how ultra-processed foods (and “gluten-free” swaps) can backfire, and how to make realistic upgrades without white-knuckling your way through life—including how you might keep your coffee and calm your gut.

  • Shame Management: The Hidden Driver of Men’s Rage
    Jan 13 2026

    Dr. Steve Poulter is back for Part 2 of our conversation, and this time we go straight to what he calls the hidden engine behind so much male anxiety, isolation, and anger: shame. Dr. Mills and Dr. Poulter break down how shame takes root early, why men often externalize it in ways that damage relationships, and why “anger management” is often really “shame management.” Plus, Dr. Poulter shares practical ways to get out of the “invisible/disrespected” spiral and explains why naming shame—especially around trauma—can be the turning point that finally lets healing (and even marriages) move forward.

    Dec 30 2025

    Dr. Mills sits down with board-certified sleep medicine physician and UCLA faculty member Dr. Sam Kashani to break down what’s really happening when you can’t stay asleep. They demystify REM vs. deep sleep, explain why sleep trackers can sometimes make insomnia worse, and outline the real red flags for sleep apnea—plus how home sleep tests are changing the game. Along the way, they cut through the noise on supplements like melatonin and valerian, and make the case for CBT-I as the gold-standard, evidence-based treatment for insomnia.

  • AI, Chatbots, and the New Age of Men’s Health: The Future of the Exam Room
    Dec 23 2025

    Urologist and informatics leader Dr. Denise Asafu-Adjei joins Dr. Mills to break down how AI is quietly transforming men’s health, from AI-powered scribes that free doctors to actually look patients in the eye to chatbots that could triage symptoms and streamline access to care. They dig into the big questions patients (and physicians) are asking right now: privacy, accuracy, and whether technology will ease burnout or simply fill every last “free” minute on the schedule. Plus, Dr. Denise (@drdenise_official) shares where the field is heading next — including mind-blowing fertility advances like AI-assisted sperm identification — and what it’ll take (education, policy, and better data sharing) to make the future of medicine both smarter and more human.

  • Why Sex Feels Hard (Or Not): Ejaculation Dysfunction, Mismatched Libidos & Myths That Hold Men Back
    Dec 2 2025

    Dr. Jesse Mills and Jordan are joined by sex therapist Natalie Finegood Goldberg for a no-shame, deeply practical crash course in the issues men are most afraid to talk about: premature and delayed ejaculation, mismatched desire, and the confusing role porn can play in modern sex lives. A licensed marriage and family therapist and clinical director of Creating Change LA, Goldberg explains why anxiety, tight pelvic floors, and fragile mind–body connection drive so many ejaculation problems—and how breathing work, pelvic floor therapy, “frontloading” conversations with partners, and even retraining how you masturbate can make a real difference. They dig into what happens when partners’ libidos don’t line up, why scheduled sex actually works, and how responsive desire is just as normal as spontaneous arousal. It’s an honest, compassionate guide to understanding your body, communicating better, and approaching sex as a skill—not a test you’re supposed to ace.
