Welcome to EO Radio Show - Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. I’m Cynthia Rowland, and this is episode 66 of EO Radio Show. Happy New Year to all of you! As most listeners are undoubtedly aware, 2024 is an election year, and that means that charities and private foundations need to refresh their understanding of election-year issues for organizations that want to remain exempt under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3).
This week’s episode is a refresh of episode 6 of EO Radio Show, first released on July 7, 2022. Episode 6 covered the limitations of 501(c)(3) relating to candidate campaign intervention. I’ll also refresh Episodes 7 and 8 in the next few weeks. These episodes address legislative lobbying by public charities and private foundations, which will also likely be hot topics in 2024. Check out the show notes for resources from the IRS on these topics, and check out the Farella Braun + Martel YouTube channel for the complete EO Radio Show playlist.

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.
