Of the many often over looked projects he completed during his lifetime, perhaps the most forgotten is 1988'a Action Jackson. Join us we deep dive into this adrenaline fueled thrill ride. From explosive car chases to bone crunching fight scenes, w break down the pulse-pounding action and discuss its enduring legacy.

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.
