Episode 37: Flashpoints Then & Now
⭐ Group Topic: Flashpoints
⭐ Spacebar PLZ: The Esseles
⭐ Flying Solo: Solo Flashpoints
Scya: Mal, what are flashpoints?
Mal: Flashpoints are group content in SWTOR that has both story and unique enemies to fight. Each flashpoint is almost like an episode of Your SWTOR Character’s Life etc. Some of them have longer stories and cut scenes, especially the earlier ones, and some are more simple.
Scya: What was your first ever Flashpoint? What did it feel like?
Mal: First flashpoint ever was Black Talon, I played the beta and this was kind of the first thing we did together, my husband and my best friend Norin. They were horrified at a choice I made, which is funny but it was nice to see that in the beta and know perhaps there was another way later! It felt like a cool adventure our characters were going on together outside of our individual class stories that we were all pursing. We did come together to do the world quests and heroics, but up until that point all the story we saw was alone. Plus we didnt want story spoilers so it was a nice coming together moment. COME TOGETHER
RIGHT NOOOOW OON THE FLEET!

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.
