Haym Gross is an architect specializing in sustainability and a pioneer in developing community infrastructure to achieve environmental resilience. He is a founding member of the NYC 2030 District, a public-private partnership of stakeholders working to radically reduce carbon emissions and fossil fuel consumption on an urban scale. This initiative is part of a larger network of 26 similar districts across North America (2030districts.org). Haym takes us on his journey—beginning as a sculptor working with organic forms, then designing spaces that mimic nature, and now collaborating with communities to help neighborhoods, cities, and urban environments adapt to a changing climate. He is both an expert and an experimenter, a visionary and a pragmatist. Join us for the second episode of the Good Standing podcast and discover how you can start applying these principles in your own community.

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.
