All new Husky Talk with UConn Football legendary DB and Captain Kevin Bannister. Being able to have Kevin and Robert Belcuore on in the same week, two top defensive players in UConn Huskies history is gold.
Kevin was born in Shelton and played in Danbury. He tells some amazing stories about growing up and his career at UConn. Playing for defensive coordinator, "the round man" Greg Williams and head coach Tom Jackson. He talks about the dominant secondary they had, and opponents would feel pain the next day after playing UConn.
Kevin was gracious in giving a ton of credit for his success in life after football to Beverly Sims who took care of thousands of football players during her time. He praised her for getting Kevin started with a job working in insurance and it turned out to be the best career for him. He has achieved success, provided an incredible life for his family, and is beyond thankful Bev took care of him.

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.
