They delve into the concept of creating art for the sheer joy of being and self-expression, emphasizing the value of this pure approach over a results-driven mindset. In this episode, we also discuss the merits of embracing laziness and question the pervasive nature of hustle culture, highlighting its disregard for the essence of humanity. We delve into thought-provoking questions surrounding purpose: What does purpose entail? How can one uncover their purpose? And most importantly, how does one separate purpose from the notion of financial gain and time monetization.

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.
