Before this episode, I tried to record twice. Both times, I was trying to sound like what I thought a podcaster should be. Motivational. Polished. Perfect. But it wasn’t me. This right here? This was the first real one. No fancy mic, no ring light—just me, in a closet, recording on an Android with a gaming headset, talking to save myself. I was a sergeant on the outside, but broken and lost behind closed doors.
In honor of Men’s Mental Health Awareness, I’m remastering “Find Your Peace”—the episode that helped me stop pretending and start healing. I hope it brings you the same clarity it gave me when I hit record and finally decided to be real.

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.
