Live, Laugh, Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast

EP 226: Deck the Halls & Cross the Line


Listen Later

’Tis the season—and things are about to get decked.

In this Christmas special episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny, Trevin witnesses capitalism for kids firsthand while volunteering with Junior Achievement BizTown, the company shaping young business minds. Even a Playskool-level version of the American economy somehow manages to be bleak.

Meanwhile, Amanda gives her legs their first winter shave… with a weed whacker, and the crew dives into listener dilemmas. From a long-awaited “paint your spouse” anniversary date (with video evidence), to rude coworkers and seasonal body pains, it’s the season of giving—and we’re giving you a platform to complain.

The crew also brings back the Naughty List, each revealing their personal picks for 2025. High cholesterol, vet offices, sausage patties, and the government all make appearances. Hear who made the list—and why they’re so naughty.

For stories, Trevin takes us to Hanes Mall in North Carolina, where Elsie Brooks, Selma Brooks, and Christina MacDonald just want to take their kids to see Santa. But a strict elf, Shannon Athena Watkins, has rules—and she expects them to be followed. Will this end in a Christmas miracle… or simple assault?

Amanda follows with the long, storied life of Carol Christensen, a retired circus performer and stunt woman turned spreader of joy. With her biggest events behind her, she discovers that withholding joy from a police officer can still earn you a ride to the station.
