On this episode, we’re diving into the world of Muay Thai—but not just the sport itself. We’re talking about how this martial art builds resilience, strengthens your mindset, and can help you navigate life’s toughest moments.
Joining us is my longtime friend, Jenine Pilla. Jenine has been training in Muay Thai since 2015, earning local, national, and international titles along the way. She now coaches at 8 Limbs Academy in Philly and does incredible work in harm reduction, violence prevention, and community outreach for the Philadelphia DA’s office.

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.
