Have you ever stopped to ask the simple yet profound question: why do we love? In this deeply personal episode of Make Me Smile, I, your host Miist, explore this very question as we seek to understand one of humanity's most powerful forces. We'll journey beyond the simple 'I love you' to discover the eight ancient Greek words for love—from romantic Eros to the universal love of Agape—and discuss why knowing the difference is so important for our relationships. I'll share my own story of learning how to love after a childhood that didn't teach me, and we'll explore how these early lessons can impact our mental health and our ability to form healthy bonds. You'll hear my original song, "The Bruises Won't Ever Understand," and leave with a powerful 15-second action that could change someone's day. If you're ready to explore what it truly means to love yourself and others, and want to learn how to break cycles and build a happier future, go listen to the full episode now.

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.
