Greetings and Welcome to the final Potentially Useful episode of the TCAPSLoop Podcast. Danelle Brostrom and I attempted to not be excessively maudlin and succeeded to some extent as we looked back on 8 years of potentially useful podcasting while "closing the Loop".

Number of episodes - OVER 200!!!!!

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.
