Nepal is in flames—streets filled with outrage, Parliament stormed, and the nation’s leaders fleeing under military escort. What began as a government shutdown of 26 social media platforms has ignited into a full-scale uprising, led by a fearless Gen Z generation demanding an end to corruption and inequality.
In this urgent TPL Media update, hosts Jim Lang and Mike Wixon connect live to Kathmandu with correspondent Roshan Ghimire, who recounts the chaos on the ground: Supreme Court documents in ashes, ministers’ homes firebombed, students gunned down, and an entire political system collapsing in days. With the Prime Minister and cabinet resigned, the army in control of security, and revolutionary youth calling for justice, Nepal stands at a crossroads that could reshape its future forever.
This is not just Nepal’s story—it is a warning and an awakening for the world. From youth unemployment to corruption, from the digital battleground of social media to the raw fight for freedom, this generational revolt may set the stage for global echoes of resistance.
TPL Media brings you the voices, the urgency, and the truth as history unfolds in real time.

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.
