Welcome back to The Pastel's Podcast: On Stephen King! This week our heroes answer the question, "What if Cocaine made a movie?" Thats right, this week we are reviewing 1986's Maximum Overdrive! Written and directed by Stephen King with music, unsurprisingly, by ACDC, this movie from start to finish is the worst in the best way possible. Johnny covers another production filmed in Wilmington, but the first one set there, and Dave reminds us that if it's pop culture, the Simpson's did it. Whether you are more into murderous soda machines or ATM's that call you an asshole, you are bound to have a good time here, especially with a good friend and some good brews. Enjoy!

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.
