It's time to settle the score. In this episode, Noah Golder is joined by 17-year-old Grace Marchant and 15-year-old Savannah Keller to discuss the future of standardized testing in the United States. They will debate whether or not colleges should be able to require standardized test scores for admission, possible alternatives to this system, and how the debate with state testing fits into the standardized testing discussion.

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.
