Ep. 90 - Who’s Your Cancer Daddy? A Real Talk About Cancer w/Dr. Joe Zundell

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Dr. Joe Zundell — aka “Cancer Daddy” — for a wide-ranging conversation on cancer science, early detection, and what's actually moving the field forward. We cover: • Multi-cancer early detection (MCED) testing and the promise of liquid biopsies • Accuracy, limitations, and clinical decision-making • Metabolic vulnerabilities in cancer (Warburg effect, glutamine dependence) • Epigenetics and tumor biology • Immunotherapy, targeted therapies, and radiopharmaceuticals • Translational research and the bench-to-bedside gap • Drug resistance and evolutionary pressure in cancer treatment • Personalized risk reduction and prevention strategies We also get very personal in this episode — discussing loss, integrity in academia, career pivots, and what truly drives Dr. Zundell's mission in cancer research. This is an honest, science-first, and deeply human conversation about cancer, prevention, innovation, and responsibility in modern medicine.
