In the inaugural episode of 'Bridging the Gap', Alicia Ford kickstarts a journey to explore neurodiverse relationships by examining the concept of 'Brain Types.' She illustrates how our brain processes information, emotions, and logic, which significantly influences how we perceive and interact with the world. She introduces two key processing styles - Logic and Emotion, sharing her personal experience with fellow BTG co-founder, Sean, on how challenges in their communication were rooted in different 'Brain Types'. Alicia emphasizes the potential pitfalls of assuming everyone processes information similarly and underscores the necessity of identifying personal and others' brain types. Apart from lessening misunderstandings, she posits that understanding 'Brain Types' fosters empathy, enables effective communication, and enriches relationships. Future episodes promise to delve deeper into identifying 'Brain Types' and harnessing this knowledge in different relationship dynamics.

Cardiac Cowboys

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.
