Shell we go a little bit nuts together? This food group is having a bit of a *moment*; equally at home in our diets and social media feeds. We're told they're fantastic for our health, but they can also cause environmental damage. It's only natural that Emma and Sophie should investigate.
Plus, squirrel season is in full swing: Many tasty morsels are in season right now in the UK (think hazel nuts, walnuts), and some inedible nuts that still have brilliant natural uses, like horse chestnut (also known as a conker). Yes, there will be foraging tips in this episode.

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.
