Episode Transcript
Hi. I'm Josh Dean very serious investigative podcast journalists, and I'm.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Rory Scovell, extremely serious comedian, actor, lover and fighter.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
We want to tell you about our new show Crimeless,
from the ingenious minds at SmartLess Media, Campside Media, and
Big Money Players. It's coming out this fall, and it's
like a new kind of true crime podcast one where
we dig into the stupider side of breaking the law.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
That's right. Every week, we're going to tell you about
some ridiculous attempted crime, all dreamed up by some of
the dumbest criminals in the world.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
And we're going to start the whole thing off with
an extra long tail, almost too good to be true.
It's called Crimeless Hillbilly Heist, and it's hosted by a
friend of ours.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
A friend who's kind of a jackass himself. Oh God, Johnny,
that's your cue.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Thanks, Rory. I'm Johnny Knoxville, and I'm going to kick
the Crimeless train off with the wild and wooly tail
about a gang of high functioning nitwits who somehow pulled
off a mare his third largest cash heist. The pile
of money I ended up with weighed over a ton.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Literally what I say, I stole a ton of money.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
It's true.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
The crew has hold of an entire bank ball full
of cash, and they've got the FBI and the media
hot on their trail. But if you got so much, though,
and there's no way to hide it, why not put
it to good use.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
They bought a mansion, bought a BMW.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Bought a tahoe, bought a forty three thousand dollars ring
prest in plants for his sisters.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
And don't forget the leopard print staircase, develovet Elvis painting,
and a wine cellar stocked with the finest cheap beer.
Regular folks who risked everything just so they could buy
their way into a different life. I remember saying I'm
a rich bitch now kind of felt good.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Kind of like Robinhood, except for the part where he
stills from the rich.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
And gives to the poor. I'm not that genius. It's
a damn near inspiring true story for anyone out there
who's ever shot for the moon. Then just totally muffed
up the landing. He was just going to leave the
method up to me because I was a trained assassin.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
They still seventeen million dollars and had not bought a
ticket to help him escape.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
So we're saying, like, oh God, what do we do?
What do we do?
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Come for the true crime twists and turns, and stay
for the screw ups. It was kind of like a
perfect storm and a sewer that was dumb.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
People do not follow my example.
Speaker 3 (02:43):

anything as possible from SmartLess media, campsite media, and big
money players, coming October fifteenth, with new episodes every Wednesday
