In a desperate attempt to escape her post-college soul-destroying banking job, Bethany submitted her headshot and acting resume to her local radio station in Minneapolis. Even though she lacked any radio experience whatsoever, Bethany's extensive training in improv helped her land the job and she ended up co-hosting their morning show for four years. Bethany then got the incredible opportunity to co-host the nationally syndicated Elvis Duran & the Morning Show, which she did until February 2018. Currently, Bethany can be seen in "Labeled" - a web series that she co-produced and stars in - about a fictional record label in NYC, as well as "Pet Peeved," the web series from Writers Guild Award Winner Daryn Strauss. She also stars in the upcoming horror/comedy short film "Lonely Hearts," which will screen as apart of the Art of Brooklyn film festival and she is the co-Host of the "An Acquired Taste" podcast. Bethany is an actress and producer; she's as weird as you are and quite lovely as well. In this episode, we learn about her career, how she embraces creativity with her significant other and we chat about a topic dear to her: mental health.

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.
