In this special episode of the Nomad Summit Podcast, it’s just the three of us – Christoph, Alexandra, and Palle Bo– talking about what’s coming up at Nomad Summit 2026 in Chiang Mai this January.
We go behind the scenes of the flagship event, share how the program is shaping up, and reveal why you should book your ticket now before prices rise on October 15. We also discuss new formats we’re considering, local partnerships, and what makes the Chiang Mai Summit such a cornerstone for the global nomad community.
And because Nomad Summit is about more than just us, we also highlight the Foundation for the Education of Rural Children (FERC) – a non-profit organization in Northern Thailand that gives students from low-income families the opportunity to finish secondary school. In Thailand, education is only covered until age 15, leaving many families unable to afford uniforms, supplies, meals, and transport. FERC steps in with scholarships and support that break the cycle of poverty by helping students stay in school and build a brighter future.

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.
