In this episode, Yotakahron has a conversation with the trail-blazing Dr. Donna May Kimmaliarjduk, the first Inuk cardiac surgeon in Canada and a cardiac surgery fellow at The Cleveland Clinic. They discuss Dr. K's journey throughout medicine, being an Indigenous woman in medicine, and lessons learned along the way. Yotakahron was asked to write this feature which highlighted and celebrated Dr. K during International Women's Day 2020. As we go through a shift with the Podcast, we were able to pull this episode from our records and edit it for you all to listen (almost a full year later). We hope you enjoy!

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.
