On August 27th, 2025, tragedy struck Minneapolis when a former student opened fire at Annunciation Catholic School, killing two children and wounding eighteen. The suspected shooter, Robin Westman, identified as transgender — sparking immediate political firestorms, culture-war talking points, and a flood of misinformation.
In this special episode of The MiddleGround Mic, we cut through the noise. We examine the facts of the shooting, Westman’s background, the writings and extremist messages left behind, and the broader issues of gun access, mental health, and community resilience. We push back against scapegoating entire communities while demanding accountability for systems that keep failing.
This is not about politics. It’s about balance, empathy, and truth. Because if we don’t find the middle, we risk losing it all.

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.
