From Marc Smerling, the creator of Crimetown and The Jinx, welcome to CROOKED CITY. The Saturday Evening Post dubbed Youngstown, Ohio “Crimetown U.S.A.” It was a mob town. Illegal gambling was so lucrative that a mob war raged for decades, and bodies piled up. Then, Jim Traficant ran for sheriff, riding into office as the city’s steel industry fell on hard times. Traficant battles the local newspaper, then the FBI, the IRS and finally his own demons as an eight-term, twice-indicted congressman. Want the full story?

I consume a lot of content on this platform and “Crooked City” is about as great of a podcast as I’ve ever heard. Fantastic!
Fantastic!

Wow, this is so compelling. I'm an Ohio native and rust belt refugee. I had no idea about the mob's influence in a place like Youngstown. I knew it was one of the worst hit rust belt towns because of the quick collapse of the old school steel mills, but not much more. The Trafficant part of this podcast is fantastic (all I knew of him previously is that he was a crackpot). He's definitely that! But it's the story telling about organized crime that was truly next level. The sources the producers got to cooperate for this, plus the archive audio . . . wow, wow, wow. Highly recommended!

Loved Crimetown and this show equally enthralling. Can’t wait for the next town full of crooks and mobsters as well as the history lesson.
