Hosts Casey Nelson and Kelly Wray invite three guests for their insights about how women in finance and law can advocate for themselves. 

Linda Filardi of Flagstar Bank, Jess Yovich at BMO Commercial Bank, and McGuireWoods’ colleague Gretchen Townshend recall their own journeys to guide others. Among their suggested strategies: documenting accomplishments throughout the year, cultivating mentors, and getting the data that shows why people were promoted. They also remind women not to fall into the trap of thinking that self-advocacy is “bragging.”

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.
