We are back with another in our "Rant, Rave, Really?" set of episodes where we lean into every day observations about something that we really want to give a shout out about, perhaps something that is a bit troubling, or something that is just plain confusing. In this episode, host CH gives a shoutout to a recent Instagram reel that crossed her feed discussing the importance of developing a code to communicate when we truly need support from our closest friend (or friends). In other words, NOT just treating it like any other reach out. And the interesting fact? It only takes 8 minutes of connection to help ease feelings of loneliness and isolation, and to create a sense of togetherness. (OF NOTE: This episode was recorded before we could source the author of the remixed Instagram reel. But we DID - its Simon Sinek. See our Show Notes below).

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.
