Episode 134 focuses on a parenting tip centered around letting children solve their own problems. Drawing from her experience as a mother of nine, Behka discusses how the natural instinct of parents is to "swoop in" and fix things for their kids. However, she argues that this approach weakens children's problem-solving skills and fosters dependence. The episode emphasizes that children often have the capacity to handle challenges but may lack experience. Behka shares personal stories of how she's learned to step back and provide love, support, and listening rather than solutions. She encourages parents to believe in their children's abilities and offer perspective only when asked, ultimately fostering resilience and strength in their kids.

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.
