Welcome to episode 33 of the F23 podcast. Join me this time in conversation with Mike Gathers the host of the Hilaritas Press Podcast. We talk about how he discovered the psychedelic and counter culture movement at his first Grateful Dead concert and his path to the great writer and modern day mystic Robert Anton Wilson. We talk about our favourite teachings in his work including multi-model agnosticism, the 8 circuit model and how his work is important today. Mike is interested in building a relational interpretation of the 8 circuit model and this is something I'm fascinated to learn more about.

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.
