One take us up where we belong.

Where white eagles fly on a mountain heist.

Heist podcast.

Hey everybody.

Welcome to another episode of Heist.

I'm Simon.

And I'm Matt. And welcome to another episode of Heist. I'm Simon. And I'm Matt.

And welcome to another episode of Heist podcast. It's a true crime podcast without any of the murder.

Yeah, I think that's a good way to put it. And for those of you listening for the first time, it's specifically about Heist News, Big Famous Heist from the past, and all sorts of things heist related.

How are you doing today, Matt?

I'm doing good. How are you doing?

I'm doing good. I'm doing good. Besides the fact I'm a little tongue-tied.

Yeah, yeah. You're really slipping up. I don't know what it is. But anyways, we got a good one

tonight. We do. We got a heist, I think, checks off all the boxes because we have, it's a great, you know, going back to the classics, a big old cash grab. Yeah. And it also gives us a little inside look into a certain culture. Yeah, exactly. It's a good one to cover. It's got a little politics attached to it. A few things that make it unique. Totally. But first, should we get into some heist news? Let's do it.

All right.

Heist in the news.

So, Matt, I don't know if you knew this or not, but on Friday, a movie got released about

the Hatt and Garden Heist we covered, starring Michael Cain, and it's called King of Thieves. Have you had a chance to look at the trailer? I have so. Yes, I definitely have checked it out. That was episode 15, I believe. Yes. We did cover this old man heist. Yeah. The funniest bit is the casting agent probably didn't really hurt himself picking it. Like Michael Cain is like, yeah, of course it's going to be Michael Cain. He's an old English guy.

He's 85. Yeah. And watching the trailer, it seems like I see some things in there. I'm like, yeah, that happened. Like, they seem like hitting quite a lot of notes that actually happened in your life. The reviews haven't been great. Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 32%. That's not a good sign. And they say, King of Thieves unites an incredible cast for a heist movie brimming with potential. Dot, dot, dot. Most of which, sadly, evaporates long before the end credits have started to roll. Oh, it's a bummer. It is a bummer. I watched the trailer, too.

I got to say, it felt a little bit like it couldn't decide if it was going to be a heist movie or kind of a movie about old people. Do you know what I mean? Like, there's a lot of cliches about old people that old people movies often do where it's like, oh, we're too old. It's basically a one long, I'm too old for this shit.

Yeah, and all five characters are all too old for this shit.

Yeah. where it's like, oh, we're too old. It's basically a one long, I'm too old for this shit.
