The late historian Allan Bérubé documented in Coming Out Under Fire (1990) how queer soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines have always been a vital part of military readiness. He revealed in a 1983 talk that the first queer news source in the United States was published at an airfield in the deep South more than 80 years ago (produced by David Hunt). And in NewsWrap: Burkina Faso’s military junta outlaws same-gender sex for the first time in the nation’s history, Pope Leo XIV intends to follow in his predecessor’s footsteps when it comes to the queer community, Moroccan feminist/human rights activist Ibtissame Lachgar is heading to jail for more than two years for wearing a “Allah is Lesbian” t-shirt, four people arrested for attempting to restore the rainbow crosswalk near the Pulse Nightclub Memorial in Orlando, Florida are released as others continue to chalk the street, world-famous diving champ Greg Louganis plunges into a journey of self-discovery in Panama, and more international LGBTQ+ news reported this week by Lucia Chappelle and Michael LeBeau (produced by Brian DeShazor).

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.
