Join me as we tackle the challenges of parenting when values between a parent and child seem worlds apart. In this episode, we explore a mother's struggle with her need for order and calm contrasted with her nine-year-old son's preference for play and silliness. We dive into the importance of understanding children's developmental needs for exploration and noise, and how parents can stretch their perspectives to accommodate these differences. We'll provide insights into bridging the gap between a parent's need for calm and a child's need for fun, helping to foster connection and harmony within the family.

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.
