In recognition of Suicide Prevention Month, Dr. Mabry welcomes Dr. Kayla Jackson from the Mental Health Cooperative to talk about the importance of mental health care in the Upper Cumberland and beyond. A Cookeville native and Tennessee Tech graduate, Dr. Jackson shares what inspired her to pursue a career in mental health and how the Mental Health Cooperative—now with locations in Cookeville and Nashville—is helping individuals access life-changing services. The conversation covers the signs of poor mental health, the stigma that still surrounds therapy, and how telehealth and alternative transportation methods are improving access in rural areas. Dr. Mabry also leads a “Myth vs. Truth” segment to address common misconceptions about therapy and mental health treatment. Listeners will walk away with resources, reassurance, and a better understanding of how to care for their own mental well-being or support those around them.

Cardiac Cowboys

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.
