John Doe: podcast appearances and interviews

John Doe is a placeholder name used in legal systems in Britain, Canada, and the United States when the true identity of a person is unknown or concealed. It is also commonly employed by law enforcement in the United States to refer to an unidentified or unconfirmed corpse. Additionally, John Doe serves as a generic term representing an average individual in various contexts, similar to other placeholders such as John Q. Public or Joe Public. Numerous variants of the name exist, including John or Richard Roe, John or Jane Smith, Joe or Jane Bloggs, and others, with some versions designated for children like Baby Doe. The name A. N. Other is a gender-neutral alternative primarily used in the United Kingdom for similar purposes.
