In this episode of Two Strike Noise, Jeff and Mark discuss Shin-Soo Choo stepping in as director of Baseball Queen, a new reality series where former female athletes take on the challenge of learning baseball from scratch. They also cover some fresh player nicknames, memorable closer entrances, and notable big-league debuts. The main topic this week is the legendary baseball finale of the original The Naked Gun — packed with hilarious gags, surprising cameos, and behind-the-scenes baseball trivia that turned this ninth-inning chaos into one of the funniest sports scenes in movie history. The episode wraps up with another round of Wax Pack Heroes, ripping into a stack of 1988 baseball cards to see which stars, surprises, and forgotten names we uncover.

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.
