Al Capone All-American: Downfall and the Feds

SUBSCRIBE TO THE NEW HOME OF THE OUTFIT ON PATREON! https://www.patreon.com/TheOutfitPodParting is such sweet sorrow, and never more-so than in the season one finale of The Outfit. In the final episode of “Al Capone: All-American,” Al Capone, at the height of his powers, finds himself trapped in a gilded cage — hunted by gangland enemies, the IRS, the President, and a little-known fed named Eliot Ness. And just as we can learn from history on how to launch a podcast on Patreon, Capone's successors learned how best to hang on to the power he lost—a dark lesson still adhered to by the gangsters in power today.To keep up with Alana, follow her on Instagram: @alanalevinsonSourcesHistorian Mario Gomes's excellent website, My Al Capone Museum (https://www.myalcaponemuseum.com/)Milwaukee PBS Presents "Al Capone: Prohibition and Wisconsin""The O’Hares: A Story Of Redemption Between Father And Son Easy Eddie And Butch O’Hare," Aimee Lamoureux, All That's InterestingGet Capone: The Secret Plot That Captured America's Most Wanted Gangster by Jonathan EigEliot Ness: The Rise and Fall of an American Hero by Douglas PerryScarface and the Untouchable: Al Capone, Eliot Ness and the Battle for Chicago by Max Allan Collins & A.
