While we're taking a little break, we're sharing some of our favourite episodes from previous series. This week, it's the amazing stand-up, author, actor and all around inspiration Sara Pascoe! Sara is one of the most heralded comedians working today and the immensely talented author of the books Animal, Sex Power Money and the novel Weirdo. We talked to her about reading habits during quarantine (the episode was recorded during lockdown), big lies involving hamsters, unspeakable acts committed against libraries and the saddest book she has ever read. Find a full list of the books Sophie mentioned at our Bookshop.Org store.

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.
