He's a Writer, He's an Actor, He's a Veteran, and now he presently runs his own Film Festival in the boomin' neighborhood of Bushwick, New York. Join us this week as we invite guest Richard M. Carrillo (no relation to our co-host lol) to share his amazing life and career, and walk us through his festival and how it is meant to cultivate upcoming artists, rather than drown them out with skyhigh submission costs and with unnecessary competition on the modern Festival circuit.

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.
