History is a tapestry woven from choices, accidents, and pivotal moments that could have drastically altered its course. This episode delves into some of the most consequential "what if" scenarios in history, exploring near misses that could have reshaped our world in unimaginable ways. From the Mongol invasion of Europe to the devastating impact of the Black Plague, and finally to the brink of nuclear war during the Cold War, we examine how these pivotal moments could have played out differently. Each hypothetical situation reveals not only the fragility of history but also the interconnectedness of events that define our present. Join us as we pull back the curtain on these unlit corners of history and imagine the alternate roads not taken.

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.
