Thank you for listening to Bluestocking, the podcast for people who love to learn, but don’t always have time to study. This episode, I was inspired by a series of stories covering art history in seven colors, and reminded of a book from one of my favorite authors, Sacre Bleu by Christopher Moore.

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.
