We take a chance on one of the few non-problematic works by Kipling as we read his short poem, "If," and discuss the various "masculine" virtues it extolls. 
*Disclaimer: this episode was recorded during 50% off scotch night at The Stardust Lounge, so we do go off track... from Theranos's Elizabeth Holmes to Hunter S. Thompson's daily drinking schedule... how does it all relate to Kipling's poem? Your guess is as good as ours!

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.
