On this week’s show we discuss potential impacts faced by increased costs of materials, availability of materials, and tariff fees going into and out of Canada and the US. There are a lot of unknowns, but Michelle, Casey and Emma discuss their strategies for what may lie ahead. What strategies are you using to plan for the upcoming costume season?

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.
