Lindsay Ferrier is known for her wit, honesty, and long-running blog Suburban Turmoil—but until recently, she hadn’t shared one of the most defining parts of her story.

In this episode, Lindsay opens up about the abuse she endured behind closed doors, the moment she knew she had to leave, and the promise she made to herself: that once she was free, she’d be the voice she couldn’t find when she needed it most.

We talk about the power of telling the truth, why so many women carry their pain in silence, and what it means to finally choose freedom—not just from a harmful relationship, but from shame, secrecy, and self-doubt.

This conversation is a reminder that your story matters—and sharing it might help someone else feel less alone.

We cover:

  • Why Lindsay stayed silent for so long—and what changed
  • The invisible side of abuse and how it isolates women
  • How writing became her way of reclaiming power
  • The moment she had to choose between hiding and healing
  • The ripple effect of telling the truth

Content warning: This episode includes discussion of abuse and may not be suitable for all listeners.

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.
