The discussion focuses on Xyaflex, a drug marketed as a non-surgical treatment for Peyronie's Disease. The hosts dissect a commercial, pointing out the humorous yet concerning details of the ad and the realities of the drug’s use. With side effects like penile fractures and severe scarring, they question the marketing and ethics behind such treatments. They also highlight a study on the placebo effect and its surprising results.
