It's our 70th. Episode, that is. It's a milestone - both in podcast years and in age years. And it's the latter that is the focus this week as CH ponders what life at 70 might look like for her in just two (short) decades from now. While we can't predict the future, we know it won't look like it does for those already at that milestone age today. As such, CH offers a thoughtful and light-hearted reflection (or should we say hypothesis) on the keys she is focusing on should she get to that milestone herself while also trying NOT to predict the future or get too caught up in that which may be beyond her control. In CH's own words: "This was a surprisingly fun episode to record. It gave me a lot to think about."

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.
