Today on the podcast, we have the General himself, Roxrite of the Renegade Rockers, Squadron and Redbull All-Stars. A true honour to have a breaking veteran like Roxrite share his experiences and knowledge with you all. Unfortunately halfway through I made a recording mistake aka I forgot to hit the record button again so we lost the original second half of the talk. Luckily Roxrite was nice enough to hop on a second time and we recreated the conversation as best we could, Reality TV style. We talk about his history, getting into Renegades, the formation of the Squadron, what it means to be a professional bboy, the art of practice, the legacy of Mexone and more. Huge shoutout to Roxrite again for taking the time to share his experiences with us and I hope you all enjoy the talk.
Peace.

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.
