This week G-Baby and the Usual Suspect Steve attempt to shake off their Halloween hangover with a little hair of the dog tempered with a few chuckles and some good old fashioned gumshoe-style investigation in the criminally underseen smacker of a whodunnit, The Kid Detective from 2020.
Join us as we discuss the perils of over-inflating your child's ego, self pity, and grappling with the idea of who you are in your head versus who you are in the world.
The porpoises, midnight companions and keen observers on the path of redemption, endeavor to overcome the tragic hero's hamartia in this kind of dark comedy, neo-noir, kid on bike crossed with Encyclopedia Brown for adults, all while attempting to dissect the cleverly woven narrative, unearthing its twisted charm culminating in a multiple twist conclusion that had even our porpoise pals scratching their fins in odd amusement.
Let's wax this snooping porpoise.

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.
