Introducing: CrimeLess
Dec 300:01:03Summary readyHello, My Momma Told Me Listeners! We want to share a new show you might enjoy, CrimeLess. About the show: What’s the best way to rob a bank? How do you fake your own death? Can you deploy a swarm of bees to get rid of the cops? And if so, how (theoretically) would one do that? All of these questions and more are answered on CRIMELESS, a weekly talk show that breaks down crazy crimes and answers the questions that you’re too embarrassed, or too afraid, to ask, lest it land you on an FBI watchlist. Each week, comedian Rory Scovel and his co-host, the veteran journalist and true crime podcaster Josh Dean, break down a brazen heist, outlandish scam, crypto caper, monkey gang war, or otherwise outrageous crime. The story will catapult the hosts into an exploration of the minutia of the crime, the wild characters who committed it, and how the hosts could do it better. While the show will be funny, first and foremost, listeners will also learn something — at least enough to seem interesting for 10 minutes at a party. It’s How Stuff Works, if How Stuff Works got drunk and robbed a Papaya King, to pay for the Bored Ape NFTs it bought to cover its gambling losses. Or You’re Wrong About, but mostly focused on things that Florida Man did after smoking too much kratom. (Or do you snort kratom? We definitely need to do an episode unpacking WTF kratom is.)

SummaryWhy Old Heads Avoided ADD Diagnosis (With Devon Walker)
Dec 200:58:39Summary readyDon't get banished to the portables. Comedian Devon Walker tells us about his father's theory that if you get diagnosed with ADHd, you'll be labeled stupid and denied an education. We talk about the secret lives of teachers and certain cable packages that feature series that fuck. Next, we question how the Michael Jackson film will manage the molestation accusations, and whether Sea World is trying to convince us that slavery is okay. We know a lot about Black fathers. WE DO! Then, Langston crashed out. Goku is not part monkey. Plus, Devon walks us through the evolution of his father's homosexuality. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SummaryAll Famous Black People Know Each Other (with Jay Jurden)
Nov 1801:33:13Summary readyComedian and writer Jay Jurden (The Blackening) brings us an authentic, from his mother, conspiracy theory: all Black celebrities know each other. Meanwhile, David and Langston prefer the Transformers when they're in animal form; they've only seen The Matrix once, and they don't forget the Danimals. Barney got the NeNe Leakes, and the SNAP loss will impact Baby Bop. They ponder some other theories, like, is James Brown the Black Charlie Sheen? Langston auditions for the Terrance Howard biopic. Sam Jay is the hardest comedian we know. And you can always find us in Journee Smolette's DMs. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
