Most of us already know companies like USAA, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and Wendy’s were founded by veterans. What you may not know is the name of the equally important veteran-owned businesses that are closer to you than you think. It may be you or the person that fixed your car, computer or helped you with that annoying speeding ticket. In this episode of the KNOW ZONE, Nike Roach and Jesse Almanza talked about the often overlooked veteran-owned business. Did you know that there are many advantages to working with one or even starting a veteran-owned business? There are goodies as being put ahead of the line for government contracts, getting special provisions when needing to purchase supplies, hiring, and even borrowing money. We invite you to join us and if you are a business owner, please send us an IM via Facebook to our group and we will invite you on if we have time to share a bit about yourself and your business. PLEASE INVITE other Veterans Here

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.
