  • Emperor Penguin BFF
    Jan 14 2026

    Welcome to 2026.

    After some time off, family chaos, and whatever that weird stretch between Christmas and New Year’s actually is, The American Pharaoh and Cuff Daddy are back on the mics—catching up, resetting, and getting back into the rhythm of the show.

    This episode is exactly what it sounds like:

    • Life updates
    • Work updates
    • What the break reminded us about medicine, burnout, and balance
    • Why routine matters more than resolutions
    • And why this pod works best when we just show up and talk

    No big agenda. No hot takes forced for the algorithm. Just two surgeons reconnecting, recalibrating, and easing back into the conversations that made I’m a Podstar, Not a Doctor what it is.

  • 7 Iron Therapy
    Nov 12 2025

    This week on I’m a Podstar, Not a Doctor, The American Pharaoh and Cuff Daddy take a walk down the fairway—and maybe a little down memory lane.

    Golf has officially taken over their lives, and they’re not even mad about it. From early morning tee times to midlife wardrobe updates, the guys dive into how golf became more than just a hobby—it’s a lifestyle, a coping mechanism, and occasionally, a form of group therapy.

    They also get real about aging in medicine, business burnout, and the art of not taking yourself too seriously (especially when you three-putt).

  • Under Pressure
    Aug 27 2025
    In this episode of I’m a Podstar, Not a Doctor, The American Pharaoh and Cuff Daddy bring their signature mix of humor, honesty, and chaos. From questionable mustache choices to golf course confessions, the conversation takes some wild swings—literally. The docs vent about the never-ending headache of peer-to-peer reviews, dive into the financial pressures of modern medicine, and debate the importance of vibes over scores (on the course and in the OR). Of course, no episode would be complete without music talk. You’ll hear their take on surgical playlists, the art of OR DJ-ing, and how their recent SiriusXM experience inspired their very own ultimate soundtrack for surgery. 🔊 Listen to the Ultimate OR Bangers playlist here: Spotify Apple Music Tune in for laughs, rants, and the reminder that even surgeons just want good music, good golf, and maybe a good mustache.
