On Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast this week, Geordie & Michelle look at a celebrity Christmas death while celebrating the life of George Michael...


On the 25th of December, 2016, the world woke up to Christmas presents under the tree, Elf on the Shelf and the news that music icon George Michael had died. So this week, Michelle lovingly pays tribute to the life and musical legacy of George Michael - brilliant singer, beautiful soul and the guy with the best blow dry in the business. In this Gawn Too Soon episode, Michelle goes back to when George first met Andrew Ridgely, the Wham! days, the Faith period, his DUIs and misdemeanours, getting outed, his philanthropy and his untimely death at just 53 years of age.


So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat about the dog-walking WhatsApp, Geordie's new pet, the Boxing Day tsunami and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!

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.
