📌 Episode Summary
We’ve reached the end of Chapter 1 of Le Pagine del Passato! In this special recap episode, you’ll hear the entire chapter in three immersive formats—first in Italian, then in a bilingual version (English + Italian), and finally as a literary retelling in passato remoto, the tense often used in Italian storytelling.
đź§ Pro Tip
Want to take your listening further? After hearing the passato remoto version, take a short break—then jump back and listen to it again. Use the chapter markers to revisit that section, and this time, pay attention to whether the verbs use a helping verb like essere or avere. You might be surprised by what you notice!

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.
