In this episode we interview Mike G., and his story starts with him being raised by two addicted parents. His father being a career criminal in and out of prison. His Mother does her best to help hold down a drug-filled household that eventually leading her to prostitution. Mike’s Father and Mother made a suicide pact and his father dies, but his mother lived. The family fell apart after that incident and then his mother became a Jehovah’s Witness. Not being able to assimilate himself to school or become a gangster that his father wanted him to be, Mike joined the army instead of going to jail for a crime he committed.
Mike spends the best years of his life in the military traveling the world and eventually his addiction catches up to him and they discharge him from the Army. He returns home and picks up where he left off. Mike spends the next 21 years with long stents of sobriety with relapses along the way. He keeps coming back and embodying the cliché. You don’t want to miss his spoken word session or this story of transformation with all its ups and downs. Thanks for watching and listening to an incredible journey of education and inspiration.

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.
