"Requiem for a Dream" is not just about junkies and hard drug use. In fact, we relate to these four stories for a million different reasons, but we all have that vulnerability inside of us. We dig into one of Dustin's favorite movies ever that Jake's never seen before. Be sure to watch "Requiem for a Dream" before we spoil the whole film! We also remind you to drink water, admit our own vices, and pick apart the whole story and filmmaking choices Darren Aronofsky made to figure out why it's so great.
Dustin gives spoiler-free first impressions of "Five Nights at Freddy's" and "Old Dads." Jake shares thoughts on "There's Something Wrong with the Children" and "The Fall of the House of Usher."

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.
