People are taking control of their health — now, and in the future. That’s Healthusiasm. It’s the movement that pushes us to live longer, feel better, and explore bold new frontiers in medicine and technology.
In this episode, we open the door to some of the most surprising breakthroughs shaping that future. What if necrosis — messy cell death once thought to be the end of the line — turned out to be the key to slowing aging, preventing disease, and even helping astronauts survive long journeys in space?
What if your personal health coach wasn’t a human, but an AI that knows your sleep, your DNA, even the weather — and gives you daily advice designed just for you?
And what if artificial intelligence could not only make breast cancer easier to detect, but actually predict your risk years before symptoms appear?
But that’s just the start. We’ll also explore how barbers are stepping into healthcare, why grooves in our brain reveal hidden risks, how Alzheimer’s could be better understood, and how extending human senses — like seeing infrared with a contact lens — might change what it means to be human. And of course, you can expect some sharp, provocative takes from Mo Zouina along the way.
Welcome to Healthusiasm — where short stories meet big ideas, and the future of health begins with one simple question.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
