*Trigger warning in this episode we touch on domestic violence & suicide, if you feel you will be triggered by any of these conversations please skip this episode* This week's guest is Sa'ad Mustafā he is a Tiktoker, activist and social commentator. Sa'ad has made waves online with his social commentary, vulnerability and activism he has been shared and celebrated by celebrities including J-Lo & Justin Baldoni, and his videos have reached millions across the globe! His virality isn't as impressive as his ability to share openly, to practice empathy and educate us through his commentary. In this episode, we talk about how he is content in his "imperfections", the mistakes he has made in his past and how he continues to learn and grow every day. We talk a lot about his journey growing up around DV, how he pulled himself out of rock bottom, his mental health journey and his relationship with his parents. I believe everybody can take something from this episode and Sa'ad's journey and feel super grateful that Sa'ad shared his story with us so intimately. Sa'ad is a genuinely imperfectly awesome guy, and I can't wait for you all to listen and take away a piece of Sa'ads story with you.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
