We jumped into Love Flops at the recommendation of Jeb and at first we thought it was going to just be a standard harem show with some comedy which was true for the first half of the series but then it takes a hard pivot to VR Escapism because of grief coupled with AI trying to “learn love.” We talked about the intentional time leaps as well as how time passed vs how it appeared to have passed, and how each girl basically feels like they used a different “training dataset” for what love might look like.

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.
