We start with the latest from the Middle East as a ceasefire and peace agreement framework begins to take shape in Gaza, then pivot to politics as Kamala Harris yells at a protestor — and it goes viral.

Sports fans, did you even realize the WNBA season quietly ended? We break down the ratings and reaction. Then it’s pop culture time: Stephen A. Smith gets called out, Hot Ones turns up the heat again, and we debate the most overrated artists in music today.

Wrestling fans, we’ve got you too — who should be John Cena’s final opponent?

Plus, our Question of the Day: What does a dirty car say about someone? And we close with our signature Nuclear Opinion that’s guaranteed to get people talking.

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.
