Nat Turns Six! Long Term Sobriety and Getting Your Marbles Back
As we celebrate Nat’s remarkable milestone of six years of sobriety, we explore the personal journey of rebuilding one's identity and maintaining relationships in long-term recovery. We also discuss the challenges and triumphs of redefining oneself post-addiction, from the metaphorical regaining of one's 'marbles' after five years, to the practicalities and emotional aspects of reconstructing a life free from substances.
Join us as we navigate the nuanced paths of staying sober, the pros and cons of counting days in recovery, and the transformative power of persistence and resilience in this continuous journey of personal growth and healing.

If you’re in trouble with substance abuse and need help, reach out. There are thousands of people who have put problems with addiction in their rear-view mirrors and you can be one of them. While we neither endorse nor condemn any particular program, the sheer number of available AA and NA meetings suggest that reaching out to those organizations would be a good first step, (but maybe not the last step), on your road to recovery.

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.
