Silk Soul Sessions x SongLab Live | The DJ Roundtable (Bossy B, D-Spin, Benz)

Three open-format heavyweights sit down with host Earl Alex to talk craft, community, and carving a lane in R&B. DJ Bossy B (SoCal → AZ; weddings/corporate + festival lover), DJ D-Spin (Seattle → AZ; “Spin Sundays” R&B remixes), and DJ Benz (Brooklyn/Philly → AZ; Afrobeats/Bollywood/reggae and more) reveal how they build the vibe, monetize their passion, and why collaboration beats competition. They also unveil Silk Soul Sessions—a community-first R&B platform (podcast + showcases) elevating local artists, with sights set on a full Silk Soul Festival in the next 12–18 months.

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.
