In today's classic episode, I talk about something really important that most people don’t think about—what happens if you get sick or hurt and can’t work. I share my own story and explain what disability insurance is and why it’s so helpful. We also talk about the difference between short-term and long-term coverage, and why the insurance your job gives you might not be enough. I know insurance can sound confusing, but I break it down in a simple way so you can feel ready and protected if life throws you a curveball.

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.
