The Castellammarese War Pt 2: Attack of Salvatore Maranzano
Just as it seemed no one could stop Joe Masseria from controlling the underworld of New York City, a mysterious soft spoken man by the name of Salvatore Maranzano appears on the scene and begins to amass an army of his own to take down Joe the Boss. I started a Patreon to help me pay for professional editing of future episodes (though I will go back and redo the old episodes too over time) https://www.patreon.com/Mobcast Please Rate and Review on whatever platform you are listening on.

The Castellammarese War Pt 1: Rise of Joe 'the Boss' Masseria
Giuseppe Masseria aka 'Joe the Boss' became the most powerful figure in the New York City mafia during the years of Prohibition. He was an old world Italian mafioso who sought to control all five boroughs. However, this lust for territory would lead him into the largest turf war that NYC had ever seen when Salvatore Maranzano decided to go to the mattresses to defend his Sicilian heritage.

Monk Eastman, Paul Kelley, and The Five Points Gang
Monk Eastman was one of the last of his kind. A rough thug that ruled over a brutal streetgang named after him.
