Eric Keosky-Smith joins Tim to share how a career that started with color terminals in the ’80s led to launching Intel’s Pentium across Europe, then into startups, U-Haul’s multifamily strategy, and now mission-driven business development in Arizona. Eric unpacks the “three legs” of true biz dev—strategy, marketing, and relationships—and why educating beats selling. He gets candid about failures (including four years with no salary), the cost of leaving Silicon Valley without a contact list, and how networking with an open heart can unlock big, boring, billion-dollar opportunities. They also dig into senior-focused innovation: telehealth-enabled affordable housing, fall prediction tech, and the brain-health power of social connection. Eric shares his new purpose: helping the people who help others.

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.
