This week, we’re teaming up with our creepy-cool neighbor from Wisconsin — Star from Creepy Shit Podcast! She’s joining us to share her favorite kind of nightmare fuel: the chilling history and hauntings of Poveglia Island, Italy’s most cursed speck of land.
We dive into the dark past of plague pits, tortured souls, and paranormal investigations that went very, very wrong. Star brings her signature storytelling, chilling details, and killer vibes to this haunted collab.
Plus! We play a few rounds of Paranormal Would You Rather and learn more about how Star became the queen of creepy content.

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.
