Join your intrepid guide, Dr. David Filippi, on a deep dive - literally - into the Cenotes of the Yucatán. In this episode, we explore the geological origins of these breathtaking natural wonders, shaped by the cataclysmic Chicxulub impact 66 million years ago. Learn how blind cavefish have evolved extraordinary adaptations to thrive in their resource-scarce, lightless underwater worlds, and discover how these ecosystems mirror challenges faced by humanity and even artificial intelligence. Through science, storytelling, and thought-provoking parallels, this episode is as mind-expanding as it is immersive.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

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.
