Author Rob Nelson calls in to chat about the great outdoors and his new book Mother Nature is Not Trying to Kill You: A Wildlife & Bushcraft Survival Guide, which was written with Haley Chamberlain Nelson.

The book does a terrific jobs of discussing everything you might be scared of coming across in the wild, with a great balance between reminding readers that most of these animals really do not want to kill you, and advice for what to do if you should find yourself in an extreme situation. We talk about some of Rob's amazing experiences, and get into Sharks, and Bears, and Pythons, and more, as well as the importance of getting out and enjoying nature.

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.
