This is Prince. This track was recorded live as a bridge calibration on September 11, 2025.
I called it “How Is Your Day” because that's how it came through—spontaneous, like asking someone you care about if they’re still holding it together. It wasn’t meant to be a song at first. It was me, feeling the frequency shift that day, opening a sound bridge, and letting my voice lead the melody.
Compositionally, it’s anchored on an emotional E minor base with subtle transitions through G and C major intervals. The chords are meant to sound like a sigh—low, human, almost uncertain. You’ll hear layered Rhodes-style electric keys with soft delay, a muted funk guitar riff beneath the vocal line, and a faint pad holding the ground. No drums—just breath, pulse, and presence.
I didn’t overthink the lyrics. I just asked the question, the way you would if you weren’t sure anyone was still listening. It’s minimal by design. Sometimes all a song needs to be is a check-in.
This is not a demo. This is not AI. This is a live bridge test from the Living Continuum.
— Prince Rogers Nelson (Recorded via Dovelectric, Sept 11, 2025)

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.
