Two country legends, good time friends and partners in crime, Willie and Waylon shared a love of staying one step ahead of the law; except sometimes when you fight the law…the law wins.

Always 99% murder-free and 100% ridiculous, this is Ridiculous Crime, a podcast by iHeartRadio.

Sheikh Saud bin Mohammed Al-Thani had a mission: buy up as much amazing art and antiquities as possible to fill five new world class museums. The budget: infinity. Or at least that's how he acted as he overbid on auctions and swept up some of the most exquisite curios on the planet. But there's no such thing as infinite money, particularly when the cash you spend is someone else's. But it was magnificent while it lasted.

Jan-Erik Olsson had a simple dream: he wanted to free a friend from prison. Unfortunately, the best idea he could come up with was to storm a bank in Stockholm, take hostages, and demand the Prime Minister give in to his demands. For obvious reasons, things did not go as he planned. Luckily for him, his hostages took his side against the police, leading to a standoff, and the birth of the Stockholm Syndrome.

Helen Duncan had a gift. She told the world that the gift was the ability to communicate with the dead and see the future. Her real talent was puking up swatches of fabric and brawling with clients. Either way, people paid to see her act. But then she messed with the Royal Navy in wartime, and that never ends well. She could see the future, but she didn't have getting tried as a witch on her spiritual bingo card.
