Episode description

The inaugural episode starts off with a bang, both figuratively and literally, as we delve into the highly dangerous world that was Kansas City in the 1930s. Co-host Jamie Green sets the scene of a city controlled by a machine boss, Tom Pendergast, and the murder that follows out of it. All with numerous twists and turns along the way. They didn't call it a wide-open city for nothing! Co-host Alex Greenwood makes a killer cocktail, with just the hints '3 am, 1930s'. Buckle up for a wild ride!
