Netflix’s Inventing Anna, Scandal, The West Wing and ER, to name a few: costume designer Lyn Paolo has been instrumental in creating the kind of fashion in pop culture that resonates with the masses. On episode 95 we dissect Lyn’s diverse and fashion-forward costumes for Inventing Anna. A real-life story with an incredibly recent timeline, we discuss Lyn’s first time ever, media based research for the nine episode series. Lyn shares many behind-the-scenes details of her longtime collaborations with Shonda Rhimes and John Wells, as well as with Kerry Washington. We discuss the why behind the increasing intersection of fashion and costume, discuss decades in fashion, and get into how she achieved distinct looks for popular series like Pacific Northwest-based Maid, and the midwestern style of Little Fires Everywhere. We go back to the beginning of her career, when she first landed in Los Angeles, when she won two Emmys in a row, and when she learned and honed her craft dressing the massive cast of America’s favorite hospital drama, ER. We talk about the kind of costume work that truly makes a mark, style in the fields of law and politics, of which she is an expert, and the secret behind why Lyn Paolo lawyers have such covet-worthy style. A treasured discussion with one of the greats, we talk about her sources of inspiration, the costumes she’s admired over the years, being in the UK for the highly anticipated Bridgerton prequel, Queen Charlotte, dressing stars like Bradley Cooper, Sienna Miller, Alicia Vikander, Uma Thurman, and Emma Thompson, and more.

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.
