After a long hiatus (thanks to Kyle's new baby and summer chaos), the crew is back — and we're coming in strong with one of the most powerful episodes yet. In this long-awaited release, we sit down for a full interview with Joe Miles Sr., a 96-year-old World War II Navy veteran who shares jaw-dropping stories of enlisting at just 15, witnessing the aftermath of Hiroshima firsthand, and serving aboard the USS Iowa.
Joe takes us from island-hopping in the Pacific to the bomb-scarred streets of Tokyo, all while dropping wisdom and humor along the way. This isn't just a history lesson — it's a living memory from a man who was there. Plus, we kick things off with the usual chaos: shots of Screwball, goat debates, paternity leave roasts, and a heartfelt shoutout to the veteran foundations that changed our lives.

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?
