In this episode of the Skinny White Boy Kastpod I say a lot about the FCC. For people outside of the US that is the Federal Communications Commission. It feels rather dated now. The idea back in 2005 was that the FCC was going to try and regulate podcasts because we fancied ourselves the death knell to radio... which of course, in hindsight, is a bit of a delusion of grandeur, but hey... It did give us something to rally behind. I am downplaying the significance of podcasting a bit here, which I really shouldn't.  Grassroots podcasting grew into something way bigger than the sum of its parts. So this one, I dubbed the FCC episode. It was originally released on August the 9th of 2005. Enjoy!

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.
