We have a sneak peak ofHot White Heist’s new season, and it suggests that the hit Audible Original is just as inventive and funny in season two as it was in its first season. The clip is filled with funny favorites (Bowen Yang, Jane Krakowski, Cynthia Nixon, Sandra Oh, Jon Hamm, well, kind of Jon Hamm, not really) and perfectly reflects the crimecomedy’s absurdist tendencies.Hot White Heistseason two premieres today, March 7, with all six half-hour episodes available exclusively on Audible.Check out the cliphere, along with the full synopsis of season two:
“Hot on the heels ofHot White Heist’s critically acclaimed first season, Judy Fink and his team of amateur heist experts are back–and they’re in bigger trouble than ever. Two years after successfully melting down the top secret sperm bank under the Space Needle, the CLITO collective (Community of Lesbians Inclusive To Others) is thriving on their newly acquired private island, Lesbos 2. All is well in their queer utopia. Or is it?
“Investigative reporter Sarah Keebler (Sarah Steele) is piecing together the crew’s previous heist for her bombshell true-crime podcast–and getting dangerously close to the truth. CLITO dispatches their finest agents to stop Keebler’s investigation at any cost, but do they have what it takes to finish the job? And why is she so invested in this story, anyway? And what does all this have to do with a notoriously bloodthirsty, litigious right-wing gay billionaire? Judy and his friends are about to learn the hard way that in the high-stakes world of scandalous crime, what goes around comes around.Hot White Heist 2has twice the action, two times the drama, and double the double entendres.”
