The government officially shut down at midnight — and day one has already been a circus of finger-pointing, furloughs, and fearmongering. On tonight’s episode, the crew breaks down the chaos:
Is this shutdown strength, stupidity, or strategy?
Who takes the blame — Trump, Congress, or the shadow powers pulling strings?
And what happens next if this drags on?
Artie, Brian, Rachel, Daniel, and Skylar deliver sharp, unfiltered takes with the usual mix of sarcasm, banter, and brutal honesty.

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.
