Introducing: CrimeLess

12/3/2025
Hello, True Romance 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.)

Introducing: CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

10/16/2025
Hello, True Romance Listeners! We want to share a new show you might enjoy, CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist About the show: 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.

Introducing Silver Linings With The Old Gays: Sex in Perspective, “ It's like every weekend there's fresh meat.”

6/10/2025
Hey True Romance listeners! We want to introduce you to a show we think you'll love, Silver Linings With The Old Gays. Ever wonder what beaches, bathhouses, and cruise ships have in common?

This week, The Old Gays spill the tea (and maybe a little more) about their wildest sexcapades, from steamy nights in San Fran to unforgettable flings on the high seas. Turns out, attraction is found in many forms…and knows no bounds. The crew digs even deeper, exploring intimate memories, the role of romance, the sexual dynamics of queer spaces, and even a poem devoted to a dom muscle top! The silver lining of being older? All those “special moments” worth reliving again and again. New episodes drop every other Tuesday. Listen and Subscriber wherever you get podcasts.
