In this episode, we dive into a heartfelt conversation between two friends—Kristen and Laura—who developed and maintain friendship in different seasons of life. These two friends remind us that friendship doesn’t require matching life circumstances. In fact, it’s often the differences that add richness and depth. You are invited to take what you hear today and let it challenge you: seek out someone in a different season of life, be curious, be intentional—and see how that connection can bring unexpected encouragement and value into your world.

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.
