“Unlocking the Door to the Mind”
In Episode 2, Dr. Gary Danko gently unpacks what hypnosis really is—and what it absolutely is not. If you’ve ever wondered whether hypnosis is safe, whether you’ll lose control, or whether it actually works to help people quit smoking or reduce anxiety, this episode will bring clarity.
With three decades of clinical and metaphysical experience, Dr. Danko explains how hypnosis is a natural state you already experience—when you drive without remembering each turn, or drift off while staring at a fire. You’ll discover how the subconscious mind is more than a storehouse of memories—it’s the seat of your patterns, beliefs, and deepest ability to transform.
Dr. Danko clears up the biggest myths that keep people from experiencing the healing power of hypnosis. You’ll hear why only intelligent, imaginative minds enter trance easily, how no one can be forced to do anything under hypnosis, and why the subconscious is always working with you, not against you.
You’ll also learn how Dr. Danko uses hypnosis in his own practice to help people stop smoking, lose weight, release trauma, overcome phobias, and even attract abundance. He also introduces listeners to his free audio activations at DrGaryDanko.com, which allow you to experience this powerful state on your own time, safely and gently.
This episode is ideal for skeptics, the curious, and anyone ready to explore a science-backed, spiritually-rooted path to deep transformation. Hypnosis isn’t about losing control—it’s about reclaiming it.
Dr Gary Danko has several other podcasts and courses available to help you on your metaphysical journey, to help you achieve more health, wealth, and spiritual balance than you have ever thought possible.

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.
