Chris talks about being thankful for his pre-turkey turkey nap before their Thanksgiving festivities begin, while Deanna makes plans to watch more horrible holiday movies - movies that were made to be heckled. Then Deanna gets super sciency and shares a lot of information on blood and blood types, as well as facts from RedCrossBlood.org on blood donations in the U.S and why donors are so desperately needed. From there, she takes us on a trip to Umina Beach, Australia where we meet a very special man, James Harrison. He has spent a lifetime donating blood for a very specific reason - a reason that will pull at your heartstrings and have you reaching for your Kleenex as you learn why this man and his "talent" not only made him a world record holder, but advanced modern medicine in the most extraordinary of ways as well. There is no denying that he is THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN HEART.

(Your blood is needed! There is currently a historically low blood supply. If you are in the U.S., please visit
https://www.redcrossblood.org to find a donation center in your area. If you are outside of the U.S., please get in contact with the blood donation organization in your area. You can save lives.)

Stuff You Should Know
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.
