We’re thrilled to welcome a very special guest to the podcast today: Jennifer Hosten, who made history as the first woman of colour to be crowned Miss World in 1970. Her victory took place during the height of the women’s liberation movement in the United Kingdom.
Jennifer’s remarkable journey is brought to life in the feature film Misbehaviour, which will be screened this month in celebration of Black History Month by the Canadian Caribbean Association of Halton.
In this episode, we have the privilege of sitting down with Jennifer to discuss her groundbreaking win, her experience with the film, the incredible achievements she’s pursued since her time as Miss World, and 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.
