Alex Doman and Max Lugavere became friends during Max’s Kickstarter for BREAD HEAD, and you can look forward to hearing them together again in a future episode.
Listen to this episode to learn about BREAD HEAD, the documentary Max directed that lead to Genius Foods. It explores the impact of our diets and lifestyles on brain health. Because changes in the brain begin decades before Alzheimer’s symptoms, the absolute best way we can move the needle on this disease is through minimizing risk when it matters most. Raising awareness and giving people tools and information to prevent dementia is a life mission for Max, who recently lost his mother to early onset dementia.

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.
