I have a special episode from the vault for you today while I'm on the road. This is an episode that gets into how to find your purpose, the importance of staying true to yourself, and taking smart risks. And the guest? He might be starring in the new BET+ show Average Joe, but my friend Deon Cole is anything but. I’ve had the pleasure of sitting and hanging out with the talented comedian and actor throughout his career, and when I heard about how much people are loving his newest show and his current tour “My New Normal,”, I knew I had to share this unreleased interview we did a little while back. So tune in to this exclusive from the vault content for Deon’s raw reflections into:
-
How Deon’s Chicago upbringing and engaged activism shaped his perspectives
-
How a bet with a friend led to him taking the stage for standup
-
His experiences as a writer and how he continues to create new and engaging content
-
Taking lessons and perspectives from others and working it into your own material in a unique way
-
How to handle the pressure of speaking in front of an audience
-
And so much more

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.
