Joe and Danny are back, and they are joined by their good friend and frequent contributor, A.J. LaTrace. Danny has returned from Spain and dove straight into the Midwest racing circuit. Hear about his exciting adventure climbing up to Sa Calobra in Mallorca one week, and then jumping into a criterium on the south side of Chicago the next. A.J. is always on the hunt for cool bikes on Marketplace, and this time he scored a sweet Shinola city bike. Sure, it's a dad's bike with fenders, but he's a dad and the fenders come in handy, so why not? And finally, Joe thinks the bike industry is missing the boat on bike touring. There's an undeniable interest in it from customers at the bike shop, but why is the industry so slow to react? The boys discuss the reasons why. Hold on, keep pace, let's get on with the ride!

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.
