Key Takeaways:
- Ancient Wisdom: Old stories, like the tale of Anansi the spider, still teach us about power, trust, and how those ideas show up in today’s money systems.
- Gold and Natural Law: Gold has long been trusted as money because it’s rare and takes a lot of work (energy) to dig out of the ground.
- Power of Central Banks: When central banks like the Bank of England and the U.S. Federal Reserve were created, they gained control over money. But this also led to more inflation and higher taxes.
- Bitcoin as the Modern Story: Bitcoin is like a new version of the Anansi story—it breaks the old system and offers a new kind of money that is limited and not controlled by any one group.
- Building a Better Financial Future: Many people believe the future of money will rely on things that can’t be easily changed—like gold and Bitcoin—to give more people control and spread wealth more fairly.

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.
