Grounded Futures Show, Season 2 Episode #15
“Gathering people around food is a big part of what everyday thriving looks like in my life. And, even as the world falls apart, we will still probably have to eat dinner.”
We sat down with the wonderful Tahia Ahmed, a full-spectrum birth worker who connects birth, land, and racial and climate justice together in new and beautiful ways. We dive into conversations about our interdependence, the discipline of showing up for each other, centering trust, and the importance of deprofessionalizing care and love, and so much more!

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.
