In this episode, financial advisors and retirement planning experts Jim Martin and Casey Bibb from Martin Wealth Solutions discuss the key elements of determining retirement readiness. They highlight the importance of answering three critical questions: Do you know where your retirement paycheck is coming from? Can you handle a market downturn without losing sleep? Do you have a written financial plan? The hosts share practical advice and insights into creating a sustainable retirement plan, including the significance of income planning, stress-testing your portfolio, and the value of having a written plan to navigate healthcare, taxes, and long-term care costs. They also discuss the emotional and social aspects of retirement, such as maintaining life satisfaction through social meals. http://retirewithmartin.com/ <- Learn about working with us

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.
