Jared kicks things off by describing himself as the “after picture of destruction”—and honestly, it only gets more unhinged from there. In this episode, Bo and Jared dive into the box office comeback of Superman, the unexpectedly cinematic rise of Formula 1, and why Squid Game still haunts our screens (and psyches).
What starts with jokes about calves and body image quickly evolves into something smarter: a breakdown of the cultural myths we cling to, the villains we don’t know how to build anymore, and why we keep rebooting stories that never worked in the first place.
This one balances humor, chaos, and just enough emotional weight to make you rethink your streaming queue.

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.
