**Hard Knox with Amanda Knox**

Amanda Knox has been many things—accused, convicted, exonerated, tabloid villain, true crime icon, best-selling author—and she’s still figuring out what to make of it all. Hard Knox is warm without being soft, funny without being light, and intellectually serious without being academic. Amanda argues with her guests, changes her mind, and brings the kind of hard-won perspective that you can only get from someone who’s a connoisseur of Italian prison food.

#104 - Business Casual (Stephanie Land) Oct 23, 2024

Show notes

The first sentence of Stephanie Land’s “Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will to Survive” reads “my daughter learned to walk in a homeless shelter.” That life of struggle transformed when Land wrote Maid, which inspired a Netflix original series, but with the success came a new Labyrinth - one of PTSD, imposter syndrome, and misunderstanding.

#103 - The Velvet Prison (Tia Levings) Oct 09, 2024

Show notes

Tia Levings is a former trad wife and self-described “anti-fundamentalist,” who for decades was trapped in a cycle of domestic abuse and further indoctrination into the Independent Baptist church cult which groomed her from a young age and sanctioned her abuse. Now free, Levings is an author and content creator - one who’s open to secular influence, curiosity, and is more comfortable being lost than found.

#102 - Rabbit Heart (Kristine Ervin) Sep 25, 2024

Show notes

At Westchester University, Professor of creative writing, Kristine Ervin teaches her students how to process their experiences through words. For her, this catharsis is personal. Her memoir, "Rabbit Heart, A Mother’s Murder, a Daughter’s Story," is a book she had been shaping since her mother was abducted and murdered when she was eight years old. While Kristine found herself lost in the wake of that brutal event, processing that loss and that trauma became its own labyrinth, and one in which she at first found her footing with poetry.

#101 - The American Mind Sep 11, 2024

Show notes

Greg Lukianoff is one of our nation's foremost defenders of free speech, co-author of "The Canceling of the American Mind," and president of FIRE, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. His journey to this place wasn’t easy, on a personal level, but the depressive spiral Greg eventually transcended gave him insight into the problems plaguing our public discourse.
