Mr. P.'s Tales from the Road - S02E08 - Midwest Ghost Town - Tales from East St. Louis, Illinois

Hey all! Welcome to another episode of Mr. P.'s Tales from the Road! In this episode, we take a trip into what just might be the most abandoned ghost town in the Midwest; the city of East St. Louis, Illinois! From its boisterous beginnings and past to the economic collapse that brought it low, we’ll look at what happened to what was once called “the Pittsburgh of the West, as well as tell a few tales about our explorations there in the aftermath of it all. As always, tales and history abound so crack open a frosty can of Coke, order out for some MSG-laced Chinese food, listen in and enjoy the show! Have a great weekend and we’ll see you in next week’s episode! -Mr. P. MR. P. INFO: The majority of my work gets published at the Mr. P.
