August is joined by Cory Martin, author of the award-winning memoir Love Sick, to explore dating, sex and learning to thrive when you have a chronic disease. Cory was 28 when she was diagnosed with MS and now sees her journey with chronic illness, which also includes lupus, as a gift. Dr. Megan Fleming weighs in for a listener who has a rare form of arthritis and fears chronic pain will hinder sexual pleasure and intimacy with her newfound love. Thankfully, there are workarounds and orgasms can bring pain relief! (Science proves it.)

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.
