Snacks from the 90s were basically edible happiness wrapped in neon packaging and questionable nutrition. Gen X kids ate them at a stop at their locker or in their concrete-walled dorms. Meanwhile, millennials proudly flaunted their plastic lunch boxes like they were carrying solid gold. If your mom packed you just the right snack , you were basically cafeteria royalty. It wasn’t just lunch—it was snack-based social currency, and if you didn’t guard your snacks, someone would trade you a carrot stick for your high fructose-filled, red#5 snack and call it “a good deal.”

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.
