In ep 185, Robs Daniel & Wallis take a deep dive to see what they thought of Meg 2 - The Trench. Although it turned out a shallow paddle was sufficient to discuss this shark sequel.

Does the Jason Statham bring his usual panache and elevate this monster-fest? The answers lie beneath the surface.

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.

The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
