Talentoso. Carismático. Autodestructivo. Estamos hablando del premiado leyenda de la salsa Frankie Ruiz, quien permanece en nuestros corazones mas de 25 años después de su muerte con tan solo 40 años. Sus canciones eran romanticas y atrevidas (como en “Desnúdate Mujer”), honestas y puras (como en “Mi Libertad”). Nació y murió en Nueva Jersey, y era boricua de pies a cabeza (escuche su megaéxito “Puerto Rico”).
Tome este viaje mientras discutimos su temprano ascenso a la fama, sus demonios, sus regresos y su legado.

Cardiac Cowboys

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.
