The back-story
This podcast, now in it's third year, began as The Members Only Podcast, but has since been rebranded as The Gangland History Podcast, produced by my company (Gangland History Productions LLC).
This podcast sits at the intersection of my life-long love for history, my love of mob movies, my now decades-long fascination with the Mafia (plus other organized crime groups), as well as my passion for content creation.
“As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster” was the famous line in Goodfellas. In actuality, that’s not me in any way, shape, or form. I’m just an “average nobody” who grew up in the Midwest.
