2025 Year-End Podcast Wrap: Global Growth, Family Insights, and Future Frontiers

We’re taking a look back at the podcast's remarkable growth and engagement throughout 2025. Nearly 5000 podcast downloads, listeners in 59 countries and counting, and the expanding reach across platforms like YouTube and LinkedIn is helping us to reach more people who need to learn the language of precision medicine and build confidence to be more effective advocates for their healthcare. Rome also unveils exciting new website features designed to make this information more accessible, including a glossary of terms, a list of patient advocacy groups, and an advanced search function to find topics most important to you.
Adding a personal touch, Rome introduces his daughters and podcast contributors, Marloh and Zoi, offering listeners a chance to get to know the family behind the mission, and even includes a brief cameo from their beloved dog, Cyrus. The episode culminates with an inspiring interview featuring former NFL defensive lineman Tony Savage, a male breast cancer survivor and BRCA2 variant carrier, whose powerful story underscores the importance of proactive genetic testing to understand cancer risks. Before the interview, Rome outlines ambitious goals for the podcast's future, aiming to further expand its impact and advocate for greater integration of genetic insights in healthcare:
Syndicate Genetics for Healthcare Podcast episodes into Cancer Center Waiting Rooms/Hospital Wards – we want to repurpose our video content, particularly the patient testimonies, to be featured in cancer center waiting rooms and hospital cancer wards. These real-life stories and educational segments can engage, inform, and inspire patients during their healthcare journeys, turning solemn waiting times into opportunities for learning and connection.
Advocate for NFL's Crucial Catch Campaign to Include Genetic & Genomic Testing - This initiative would emphasize the importance of hereditary cancer testing, whole genome sequencing, and identifying high-risk variants early to inform proactive screening, prevention strategies, and ultimately, save lives by catching diseases when they are most treatable.


If you have connections within healthcare systems or ideas on how to license or syndicate our episodes AND/OR contacts within the NFL, or experience in large-scale health advocacy campaigns, we'd love to hear from you!
