Join host Shawn Berry on a walk through the wilds of Utah as he explores the relationship between the agricultural revolution and humanity’s connection to time, sustenance, and the rhythms of nature. The shift from hunter-gathering to farming brought abundance and stability but also introduced hierarchies, inequalities, and a new way of measuring life itself. How has this transformation shaped not only our survival but also our sense of fulfillment? Reflecting on these ancient rhythms offers insight into what we’ve gained—and what we may have lost in the process. How does our ancient methods of acquiring sustenance in the past inform our relationship to food today?

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.
