Recorded on 03/17/2025. In this episode, we dive into the latest political currents, starting with the recent Senate passage of the continuing resolution that staved off a government shutdown, though not without stirring some unrest among Democrats. We unpack the growing divide within the Democratic Party, spotlighting tensions between Chuck Schumer and the more progressive wing, including figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jasmine Crockett. The conversation shifts to surprising voices of reason, like John Fetterman, and the stubborn opposition from senators like Mazie Hirono to practical bipartisan efforts, such as Bernie Moreno’s asylum bill. We also touch on the bizarre wave of attacks on Tesla dealerships, a symbolic jab at Elon Musk that’s backfiring by drawing sympathy rather than scorn. Finally, inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King’s 1967 "Beyond Vietnam" speech, we reflect on a potential revolution of values in America—shifting away from government overreach and toward community-driven solutions, even if it means sacrificing cheaper prices for stronger local economies.

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.
