Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell and attorney Eric Bland —talk about the retrial of murder suspect Michael Colucci, who is accused of strangling his wife Sara-Lynn Moore Colucci 10 years ago in Summerville, South Carolina, and how the age and health of his high-profile (and high-cost) attorney contributed to the constant trial delays.  Is this yet another trick of the defense attorney trade in South Carolina? Leveraging an attorney’s health in court to benefit defendants … and further hurt victims?  Also on the show it’s been four years since Alex Murdaugh murdered his wife and son … and why phrasing it that way matters.  Plus churchy business bro “Pastor” JP Miller marries his alleged longtime mistress Suzie Skinner in a highly public (but still dumpy) beach ceremony. There’s a lot to say there. ☕ Cups Up!  ⚖️ Episode References “Colleton County man goes to trial, accused of setting wife on fire, killing her” - Live5, Nov 4, 2024 📰 “Judge threatens Sean Combs with removal over interactions with the jury” - The Washington Post, June 5, 2025 📰 Read how Mandy first learned about the double homicide in chapter 10 of “Blood on Their Hands” 📖 Colucci Soundbites Premium Episode 🎧 Premium Resources Michael Colucci’s Motion In Limine: Prejudicial Terms - April 29, 2024⁠ 📄 ⁠EB’s Law Library - Burden of Proof⁠ 🎧 Relive LUNASHARK Media’s live stream of ⁠Alex Murdaugh’s double homicide trial⁠ on YouTube🎞️ ⁠MMP Episode 1⁠ - Published just two weeks after the murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh on June 7th, 2021 🎧 Upcoming Events Michael Colucci re-trial set to begin on June 16th, 2025 ⚖️ Walking With Stephen event on July 12th 💚 Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Premium Members⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ also get access to episode videos, case files, live trial coverage and exclusive live experiences with our hosts. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to learn more and join with Promo Code "COJ25" for your first month free! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/3BdUtOE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

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.
