James and Al castigate our corporate masters and the oligarchs in control of Fox before welcoming historian Joseph Ellis to celebrate the founding and tell some of its finest stories. They discuss the legacy of our earliest politicians, explain why July 2nd is a better date for a national holiday, and whether our democracy will continue to survive over the course of future generations. Then they welcome award-winning filmmaker Eva Orner to continue to expose the SA scandal at Ohio State, and examine how we treat university students and men in sports when they need us most.

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.
