“Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost.” 

That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange.

Today, we discuss the first adaptation of one of our all-time favorite animes/ mangas, Fullmetal Alchemist! 

We explore how it differs from the original manga/ 2009 anime, highlighting its highs, critiquing its lows, and trying to make sense of the trip that is The Conquerer of Shamballa. Join us in our most honest takeaways from this alternate telling of an iconic steampunk/fantasy story.

We recorded this on July 18, 2024 :-).

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.
