In this episode of Eat My Globe, our host, Simon Majumdar, will be looking at a superstar of the British culinary scene, but whose often more basic measures found her in opposition to some other culinary stars on British TV. Delia Smith has sold more than 21 million books in the UK often appearing in the top sellers every year. She has appeared on countless TV shows dedicated to her style of cooking. She was once described as the “Volvo” of cooking, but the effect she had on the UK in the 80s, 90s, and aughts was so profound that if she mentioned an ingredient or a tool, the next day it would become out of stock in every supermarket. Delia Smith has earned close to $50 million in the UK alone and even bought her local soccer team, Norwich City, whom she loves. A great character and a very good cook.

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.
