Researchers at Northwestern University have developed the world’s smallest pacemaker—small enough to be injected with a syringe and powered by light from a wearable chest patch. Designed to dissolve inside the body once it’s no longer needed, the device could be a game‑changer for newborns with congenital heart defects who only need temporary pacing after surgery, cutting down on risky procedures and repeat operations.

Science and social issues collide on this episode of The D.L. Hughley Show Podcast, starting with a jaw‑dropping medical breakthrough: researchers at Northwestern University have developed the world’s smallest pacemaker—small enough to be injected with a syringe and powered by light from a wearable chest patch. Designed to dissolve inside the body once it’s no longer needed, the device could be a game‑changer for newborns with congenital heart defects who only need temporary pacing after surgery, cutting down on risky procedures and repeat operations. The conversation then shifts to culture and responsibility, sparked by Todd Chrisley’s controversial claim that white parents who adopt Black children without teaching them Black culture are committing a form of harm. The crew and callers weighed in on identity, emotional neglect, and whether cultural erasure leaves kids unprepared for how the world sees them—an argument that mirrors longstanding debates in transracial adoption research around belonging and self‑esteem. 

The show also shines a light on journalist Mimi Brown, who joins the conversation to discuss her five‑part docuseries To Altadena, With Love, which documents the devastation of the Eaton wildfire on Altadena—California’s first Black middle‑class community—and the ongoing fight to rebuild amid insurance battles and outside developers circling the land. The series blends firsthand survivor stories with the often‑overlooked history of a community shaped by redlining, resilience, and Black homeownership. Wrapping things up with laughs, the crew counts down five annoying things men do that quietly drive women up the wall—from bad tipping habits to leaving the toilet seat up—backed by relationship research showing it’s often the “small stuff” that builds resentment when communication breaks down.
