This is the third and final episode of the Barry G specials. Barry G played an instrumental role in the explosion of Yellowman in 1982 after the Tastee Talent Show victory by Yellowman (Beenie Man took second place in 1982).

Next is a JBC studio visit with Shabba Ranks, then more radio clips, a discussion on the Royal Philharmonic John Holt show where Barry G was an MC. Miguel Lorne is then interviewed by Barry G about the Bob Marley estate in 1989. *Many thanks to Barry G for his assistance in this Podcast, to Yellowman who we spoke with so many years ago, to David Rodigan, the great Mikey Dread, Don Topping, the A&P Crew from Ohio, and everyone else who has assisted in the creation of this podcast.

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.
