In this episode, Meech keeps it all the way real about how we tend to make life harder than it has to be. From chasing “mental toughness” to trying to perfect our routines, we love to complicate simple things. But as Meech breaks down — success, consistency, resilience, all of it — it really comes down to one thing: getting back up.
He shares stories from his time at the MACE, the early days of Meech Speaks recording in a linen closet, and a powerful conversation that flipped his perspective on failure. The message is simple but solid — you don’t need perfection, a fancy plan, or a miracle. You just need to show up, stay consistent, and stop overcomplicating what’s already simple.
This one’s for the overthinkers, the perfectionists, and anyone who’s been stuck waiting for the “right time.” Spoiler: the right time is right now.

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.
