We're back! After an unexpected delay, Hannah and Katy are back, battling technical difficulties and failing computers. This week, Hannah tells Katy the tragic story of John Edward Jones and his disastrous encounter with Nutty Putty Cave. There's not a lot of fun to be had with this, but the girls make the best of it with fun facts about Silly Putty, call backs to our buddy Floyd Collins, and more! Plus, a special announcement (and our reason for missing last week.)
So pour your drinks, cancel your caving expedition, and join us for this ominous tale!
Special thanks to guest producer, Tony, for supplying a working computer and editing the episode!

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?
