Mga ka-linya, iba naman setup natin ngayon. Wala tayo sa Linya-Linya HQ, at wala rin sa TPN Studio. Nandito tayo ngayon sa gitna ng ganda, ginhawa, at hiwaga ng Puerto Princesa sa Palawan. At syempre, special din ang guest natin. Hindi lang basta writer, hindi lang basta doktor. He’s both — isang makata at manggagamot. Award-winning poet, essayist, lyricist, performance poet, at Medical Doctor for Public Health. Laki sa Maynila, pero may roots din ang pamilya sa Cuyo, Palawan. Finalist ng National Book Award ang kanyang librong Ang Kartograpiya ng Pagguho, at ilang beses nang kinilala sa Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature. Mga kaibigan, kasama natin ngayon — Doc Ralph Fonte, a.k.a. Doc Loaf!
Malaman ang kwentuhan natin kasama sya-- tungkol sa kasaysayan at kagandahan ng Palawan, sa naging lakbay nya sa larangan ng medisina at literatura, sa halaga ng mga salita, ng mga kuwento, ng pagtulak sa mga adbokasiya't mga ipinaglalaban. Naibahagi nya rin ang isinasagawa nilang taunang Pawikaan Writers Workshop, para sa tuloy-tuloy na paglinang sa pagsusulat ng mga Palaweño.
Samahan nyo kami ni Doc Loaf sa kwentuhang ito. Listen up, yo!

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.
