As the school year winds down and summer begins, Michele and River pause to reflect on the often overlooked magic of transitions. Whether it's kids finishing a grade, adults navigating new roles, or entire communities shifting into a slower season, these in-between moments are sacred.
In this episode, River and Michele explore what it means to truly honor the thresholds of life. From letting go with intention to creating rituals that mark a shift, we discuss how queer joy, chosen family, and spiritual presence can help us live more meaningfully during these times of change.
We also look to the stars—June’s celestial events, like the Strawberry Moon and summer solstice, mirror the emotional tides we feel below. We ask: How can we step into what's next without rushing? And what would it look like to make peace with the pause?
✨ Perfect for anyone navigating transitions—big or small—with heart and awareness.

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.
