212: The 5 Ps of Having a Penis—The Sex Talk That Doesn't Suck

The sex talk usually goes one of two ways: terrifying and vague, or awkward and avoided. Either way, most guys are left to piece together the rest from friends, the internet, and whatever they absorbed by accident. If you’ve got kids, younger brothers, students, nephews—or you simply want a healthier script for yourself—The 5 P’s of Having a Penis gives you a surprisingly practical roadmap. The Who Cares guys are joined by Dr. Katie Ward and Dr. Kirtly Parker Jones from The 7 Domains of Women's Health to help make “the talk” clearer, healthier, and a lot less awkward.

E105: The Financial Domain of Family Planning

Informed family planning can influence life trajectories. Historically, children were considered economic assets: laborers, caregivers in old age, and contributors to survival in agricultural societies. But as industrialization reshaped society, survival no longer depended on large families, and financial realities shifted, making family planning a key determinant of long-term economic stability. In the financial domain of family planning, Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, PhD, are joined by Shireen Ghorbani, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Utah, to discuss how economic factors influence reproductive choices and outcomes. The conversation highlights the critical role of education, intention, and access in ensuring that individuals can have children when—and if—they choose. Whether contraception or infertility support, financial foresight and accessible health care can empower individuals to shape their futures.

E107: The Spiritual Domain of Family Planning

Family planning decisions are never purely medical—they are shaped by belief systems, moral frameworks, cultural traditions, and deeply personal values. Questions about contraception, fertility treatment, and pregnancy care intersect with faith in ways that are both grounding and complicated. In the spiritual domain of family planning, Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, PhD, are joined by Margaret Battin, PhD, distinguished professor of philosophy and medical ethicist, to examine where personal belief meets professional responsibility. They explore how clinicians honor their own moral compass while fulfilling obligations to patients, how religious teachings can both guide and constrain reproductive choices, and how individuals reconcile faith with lived reality.

S8E12: Re(Designing) a Medical Career That Fits You

Medical training often presents a clear, linear path: apply, match, specialize, advance. But real careers rarely unfold that neatly. Hạ is joined by Josh Bell, Amber Gautam, and Emilee Tu for a conversation about how careers actually take shape. They reflect on how they once envisioned their futures in medicine, the pivots and moments of ambiguity that challenged those early plans, and the external—and internal—pressures that quietly shape career decisions. From "aha" moments to values-based decision-making, this discussion reframes career choice not as a single defining path, but as an evolving process.

S7E24: Prelim Year, Unfiltered

Not all medical training paths follow a straight line. For some physicians, the journey includes a preliminary year—a one-year position in a specialty like internal medicine or surgery that provides clinical training before transitioning into their chosen field. Lilly is joined by fellow prelims Shima, Jenna, and Lena for a candid conversation about navigating this in-between space in training. Together, they share personal stories from the year and explore what it means to grow, adapt, and discover who you are in a year that is as formative as it is unpredictable.

211: How Thunder Stays Active Without Forcing It

Most fitness advice assumes you’re trying to become a gym person. Thunder isn’t. He treats activity like basic upkeep—something that supports the rest of his life instead of taking it over. Thunder Jalili joins the Who Cares guys to share how he chooses activities that are enjoyable, how he builds it into a normal schedule, and why the “right” routine is the one you’ll still be doing when work gets busy and motivation disappears.

E94: The Physical Domain of Friendships

When friends connect, the body responds in powerful ways. Research shows that close social bonds can lower blood pressure, strengthen the immune system, and even help regulate glucose levels. Studies also reveal that friends’ brainwaves, breathing patterns, and heart rates can synchronize during shared experiences. In the physical domain of friendships, Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, DNP, explore how our bodies react when we are with friends—from the calming effects of a hug to the contagious nature of laughter and tears. The conversation highlights the biology behind connection and the ways physical presence and touch play a vital role in human well-being.

E106: The Environmental Domain of Family Planning

Where you live—and what surrounds you—can quietly shape your family planning journey long before you ever step into a clinic. From the air you breathe to the health care systems within driving distance, your environment plays a powerful and often underestimated role in fertility, contraception, and pregnancy outcomes. In the environmental domain of family planning, Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, PhD, explore how both biological and geographic environments influence reproductive health. Joined by urologist Kelli Gross, MD, the conversation examines male fertility, environmental toxins, air pollution, lifestyle factors, and the growing questions around sperm health. In the second half, David Turok, MD, discusses how geography, provider training, and access barriers shape contraceptive options—particularly in rural and frontier communities.
