In this special episode, recorded on behalf of the Regent's University London Alumni Club, we dive into the extraordinary worlds of motorsport and electronic music through the lens of Pole Position, the brainchild of two highly acclaimed figures in the music industry: Loïc Le Joliff, the visionary founder of Brunch Electronik and Off Sonar, and Jaime Alguersuari, a former Red Bull F1 driver turned music producer and DJ.
The event took place at Blue Marlin Ibiza in London, a creative sanctuary that has recently expanded its cutting-edge music programming into the city, and where our host, Farah Nanji, holds a DJ residency. Visit https://bluemarlinibiza.london to learn more.

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.
