First of all - yes, it's been a while. But second of all (is that a saying...i'm going with it) a lot has happened! Most importantly - it's VALENTINES DAY and IT'S THE WINTER OLYMPICS so let's settle in and get to know each other again. Let's join hands and return to a simpler time - full of romance and competitive high school skiing - when having a movie that was 12% cartoon and 88% absurdist teen melodrama wasn't even weird and suicide in children's movies could still be funny. Come along as we take a trip down memory "lane" and discuss the surreal 80s classic "Better Off Dead."

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.
