In this week’s episode, curandera and author Erika Buenaflor joins me to discuss her book Veneration Rites of Curanderismo. Erika shares her training and background and how she is the epitome of the wounded healer. She talks about ancestors and social justice, the distinction between cultural appropriation and misappropriation, and how we all need to decolonize our minds.

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.
