Cooper brings on a special guest, his good friend from college, Isaiah Kasowski, who contributes much thoughtful discourse as they discuss the characters, prose, and outlook of Cormac McCarthy's novel. Is the Road nihilist? What makes the story and characters so gripping? Why was the book originally called the Grail? Okay, that last one is asked without much answering, but all the rest and many more are tackled with a hopefully insightful conversation. Enjoy!

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.
