Welcome to another episode of the Secret Resume podcast with your host, Melody Moore!  This time, we have the extraordinary John Parkin joining us to dive into the nooks and crannies of his life journey - it's a tale filled with humour, healing, and those 'f**k it' moments that show us who we truly are.

John lets us in on his childhood in the '70s, a period he describes as dark yet incredibly transformative. We stroll through his ground-breaking work with the "F**k It" books - a series that boldly flipped the script on self-help thinking around the world. Oh, and there's a healthy dose of laughter as we discuss his off-the-wall humour and creative life in advertising.

Join us as we explore how relaxation became a gateway to creativity and healing for John – a theme that's bound to resonate with anyone who's ever felt stuck in the hustle and bustle of life. So join me and let's uncover those hidden influences and enlightening secrets that make John, well, John!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

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.
