In advance of our full episode we offer this previously unknown and behind-the-scenes glimpse into 1970’s Hollywood movie politics. We dramatize a confrontation between two historical people, Sidney Sheinberg. President and CEO of both Universal Studios and the parent company, MCA, and Verna Fields, an unbelievably talented editor, that would influence how films were crafted going forward. Despite their adversarial relationship during “Jaws”, Sheinberg would eventually make Fields his head of production for all Universal Studios - a job never held by a woman before.

Cardiac Cowboys

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.
