This week on the West of Tulsa Show, we welcome one of the most talented artists/custom automotive painters on the planet, Mat Egan from down under (Yes, Australia!) We ask the most important questions, how do pinstripers get their lines so perfect and do paint customizers do exactly what the client wants or do they take liberties to do what the car wants or needs? Mat describes how he quickly grew from custom painting BMX bikes to race cars. Plus, hot rodder Steve Faist joins us in studio because he's pretty damn good at painting too..

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.
