Did you feel bad for the people who got conned into attending the #DumpsterFyre that was Fyre Festival? Billed as the cultural experience of the decade, millennials believed they were heading to a private island with beautiful models, luxury accommodations, yachts, music & gourmet food. Instead, they were welcomed by yellow school buses, FEMA tents, cheese sandwiches & arguably the biggest douche in the universe, Billy McFarland. On this episode, we’re breaking down the competing documentaries from Hulu & Netflix while also chatting about the GoFundMe to support Maryann Rolle (which has raised over $200K), Evian's new spokesman, how to portray a fantasy lifestyle on Instagram, where the blame should be placed, whether Ja Rule cut a deal (wasn’t it his vision?!), what we would have done if we found ourselves pulling up to #FyreFestival & much more! #V1 #FyreFraud

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.
