On this week’s episode, Karla and Brandi dive into the real talk about dating, love, and long-term commitment. They unpack why it’s so important that what you start with when you’re dating—honesty, effort, connection—are the same things you keep showing up with year after year.
They also share laughs and lessons about:
💑 Trying the things your partner loves (even if it means stepping out of your comfort zone)
🔥 Creative ways to keep things spicy and exciting in your relationship
🙌 Why staying true to yourself matters just as much as growing together

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.
