Wrexham Wednesdays – Episode 1 Recap
Welcome to Wrexham – S1E1: "Dream"
In the series premiere of Welcome to Wrexham, we’re introduced to the historic Welsh football club Wrexham AFC and its unlikely new owners — Hollywood actor Rob McElhenney and global superstar Ryan Reynolds. The episode explores the town’s deep connection to the club, its struggles both on and off the pitch, and the skepticism surrounding the surprise takeover by two outsiders. Rob draws parallels between his working-class roots in Philadelphia and the people of Wrexham, while Ryan offers charm, humility, and curiosity as they present their vision to the club’s Supporters Trust. With 98.6% approval, the ownership deal goes through — and a new era begins.

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.
