Opening The Vault of Safecracking Secrets

Anyone who has seen Oceans 11, The Italian Job, or Bad Santa knows that if you are going to steal millions of dollars in cash and/or art, you need a master safecracker on your crew to break-in to the vault where said valuables are being held.  But how exactly does this work?  Luckily we have the world renowned (and non-criminal safecracker) Dave McOmie on the show to explain exactly what goes into opening a bank vault.  We will discuss some of the exotic metals that are almost impossible to drill through, and his large assortment of diamond encrusted bits that are up to the task.  We also discuss his fondness for chicken strips and gravy as well as his time as a guitarist for the country music star Leon Smith. 

*BONUS* Cracking Prince’s Vault

In 2016, the legend was that megastar Prince had a bank vault filled with thousands of unreleased recordings, and since he was the only one who knew the combination, it was possible that this vault would be sealed forever.  Luckily safecracker extraordinaire Dave McOmie called to the scene.  Listen as Dave recounts his toughest job to date.
