This week, we’re pulling back the filter on influencer culture—and it’s darker than any TikTok algorithm wants you to see. From livestreamed murders to OnlyFans gone fatal, Alex and Kajsa unpack two chilling cases that prove clout can kill. Then it’s off to the villa for a full Love Island USA Season 7 recap: we’re talking controversial exits, messy recouplings, and the nation’s cult-like obsession with Amaya Papaya.
In CCBS Cocktail Corner, we’re sipping The Violet Filter—a drink that’s sweet, strong, and just a little bit deceptive… kinda like some of this season’s Islanders.
So grab your glass and brace yourself: it’s murder, mojitos, and reality TV mayhem. Just the way we like it.

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.
