Unlock the secrets of the O.J. Simpson trial as we guide you through the riveting narratives and the cultural shockwaves it sent across America. The case that became a cornerstone of true crime discussion is dissected with a blend of my original podcast recording from 2018 and fresh insights that have percolated over the years. Together, we'll navigate the labyrinth of events from the chilling double homicide, through the trial's aftermath, to the wrongful death lawsuit that brought a different kind of closure to the Goldman family.

Feel the tension as we scrutinize the confounding details of Simpson's hypothetical confession and the racial divide that cleaved public opinion. The "If I Did It" narrative, with its eerie hypotheticals, and the so-called 'lost confession tapes,' lay bare a story that haunts the American legal landscape. We'll also examine Johnny Cochran's legendary defense and the prosecution's admitted missteps, peeling back the layers of a case that remains as perplexing as it does engrossing.

As we look at the legacy of the trial, the Goldman family's relentless quest for justice takes center stage, alongside the unforeseen twists in Simpson's later life. From the contentious publication of Simpson's book to his robbery conviction and parole, this episode scrutinizes the long shadows cast by the 'trial of the century.' Next week, get ready for a powerful conversation with Max Marshall, author of "Among the Bros," where we'll take a piercing look at the complexities of fraternity culture.

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.
