Shelley and Rachel are saved from a mob by Mike, a man who exemplifies everything they've been taught to hate about Republicans. But still, they kind of like him despite their strong feminist stance against men. Will they throw off the shackles of their academic, Democratic elitism and give into their feelings, or will they finally get that tattoo they've always wanted?
Listener note: This book and its review are politically charged, which may not be to everyone's taste. Also Rachel says "first" instead of "third" when talking about feminism, and is really, really bad at math.

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.
