My name is Louis Persia. And I've spent my life at the scene of the question. Confessing to crimes of identity. Gathering evidence of memory, and enacting the same old trial of what it means to be- How do you explain your growth to a jury that lives inside your head? To podcast stories of search and revision. Cross-examinations of self, emotional appeals, cultural crime scenes, and identity taboos. For memoir, and for metaphor. The liminal, the dismissed. The unclaimed feelings-all submitted to the bench of self. This... is Life on Trial. And I'll see you in the archives.

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.
