What happens after a campaign ends? For Gay Valimont, her election loss in Florida wasn’t the end of the story, it was the beginning of something bigger. In this episode of He’s Not Wrong, Gay opens up about life after the campaign trail, the unexpected beauty that came out of defeat, and the hope she’s found in the progress made along the way.
Out of that moment, she launched Engage, Y’all PAC, a new political action committee designed to fill the gaps where the establishment too often overlooks communities, candidates, and people who deserve to be heard. For too long, national politics have ignored Southern communities unless they’re considered “swingy” enough. Engage, Y’all is changing that. The PAC invests early and aggressively in candidates running in the places the establishment left behind - rural, red, and ready for change.
With a focus on grassroots organizing, mentorship, and movement-building, Gay is helping to transform loss into lasting change. She knows power grows from the dirt up, and she believes the South is fertile ground for it.
Join us as we talk about resilience, the lessons campaigns can teach us, and why the fight for a more just and inclusive political future is only just beginning. Get involved with Engage, Y'all PAC: www.engageyall.com

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
