Love the banter and the tie ins to modern politics. History doesn’t always repeat but it sure does rhyme. Keep calling out the parallels and ignore the haters lol
Apple Podcasts5Nevpaurion9United States2 months ago - Al Capone Stories
I’m really enjoying listening to the Al Capone stories and the hosts do an excellent job of being both entertaining and informative. I would like to hear more about his national influence namely his dealings in “little Chicago” or Johnson City TN. Again wonderful storytelling mixed with a healthy dose of wit and comedy. A very wonderful podcast!!!
Apple Podcasts5spork oracleUnited States2 months ago - Great historical context
Very fun podcast. The hosts are engaging and it feels well researched. Keep up the good work. The reviewers who are complaining about the politics are just uncomfortable with the mirror showing they are the bad guys in history.
