Jimmy Nguyen sits down with Dr. Glauber Assis, a respected sociologist, author, and leader in Brazil’s sacred plant community. Together, they explore the role of gratitude, groundedness, and connection in uncertain times. Dr. Assis shares his journey from a conservative upbringing to founding a vibrant community rooted in ayahuasca tradition, all while bridging indigenous wisdom and modern science.
The conversation explores the balance between honoring tradition and fostering inclusivity, examining how both artificial and ancestral intelligence influence personal growth. Listeners will discover why true healing originates from within, why culture and community play a crucial role in psychedelic work, and how meaningful questions, rather than quick answers, pave the way to transformation.
Tune in for reflections on freedom, authenticity, and co-creating a more compassionate world.

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.
