  • Great mob podcast!

    I love listening to organized crime podcasts and this really does a great job by presenting lots of interesting details and stories. I’ve really enjoyed learning about the lesser known mob members which you don’t usually hear much about. Jeff has a great style of presenting the facts and he is enjoyable to listen to. In my opinion, this podcast is worth your time if you want to learn more about the characters who played a role in organized crime.
