The Irish Rasputin

44:53

Have you heard the strange story of Rasputin? A man who was nearly impossible to kill? Well we are not talking about him, but the next best thing, Irish Rasputin! Travel back to New York in 1933 and meet the man know as the Irish Rasputin. How did he get that nick name? Did he deserve the moniker?  This episode has murder, the mob, booze, and cabbies. 

Grab a stiff drink and lets stumble in to a speakeasy on cold night during the great depression. Sounds like fun eh?
