Another Sydnee classic: True crime meets medical science. Join us to learn all about how this modern technique - genetic genealogy - was used to catch the notorious Golden State Killer, Joseph DeAngelo. We'd like to dedicate this episode to the 74 victims whose lives were taken or forever altered by this monster, and to the scientists and detectives who gave a great deal of themselves to catch him.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
