This week, we're delving deep into a question that's been making the rounds on those very large political never-Trump websites: Why don't Democrats have their own Charlie Kirk network?
What's the real secret behind the conservative propaganda machine's success? Spoiler alert: it's not "moxie," fearlessness, or bootstraps. Surprise! It's billions in oligarch money—what many observers have coined 'the Patient Capital of Fascism,'—that built Kirk's empire and transformed American politics.
How did a "rinky-dink Twitter hashtag" become a multimillion-dollar media operation? Why can Republicans lie with impunity while facing zero accountability? And what happens when unlimited money meets unlimited power in the hands of fascists, grifters, and lunatics?
We'll explore the real-world consequences hitting farmers, construction workers, and disaster-torn communities. Why is FEMA paralyzed? How is Trump extorting Big Tech for millions? And what's behind the tasteless silver medallion grift that started before Kirk's body was even cold?
Join us as we connect the money, the propaganda, and the immunity Republicans have purchased over decades of patient investment.

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.
