In this chilling episode of Medical Media Mixer Podcast, we take a deep dive into survival against impossible odds. Inspired by the Netflix film Society of the Snow and Morbid podcast episode 638, we unpack the infamous story of the Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 crash and the desperate fight for survival that followed.
From the devastating effects of starvation, hypothermia, and frostbite to the controversial subject of cannibalism, we explore the medical, psychological, and ethical dimensions of survival in extreme conditions.
ποΈ We also reflect on the human side of this tragedyβasking ourselves: Could we survive in those conditions? Would we eat a friend to stay alive? Nicole joins in with insight on the psychological impacts of trauma and survival decisions.

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.
