In this episode of All Things Wood Floor, host Stephen Diggins welcomes legendary wood floor pro and trainer Daniel Boone. A direct descendant of the iconic frontiersman, Daniel shares his own pioneering journey—from running an edger at age 12 in the family wood floor business to training wood flooring pros across continents. With a life steeped in the wood flooring trade since childhood, Daniel reflects on how a simple piece of two-and-a-quarter flooring became his passport to the world. He discusses his hands-on teaching philosophy, the evolution of flooring education and how he's tried to make a positive impact on the thousands of people he's trained in the industry. This is Part 1 of a two-part episode.

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.
