About this episode
In Prohibition-era Chicago, beer meant power, and power meant enemies. When a high-profile kidnapping shakes the city, Roger “The Terrible” Touhy becomes the perfect villain. What follows is a decades-long battle through courtrooms, prison walls, and a justice system that may not have been looking for the truth at all.
Recorded at the legendary Anne Nicole Nelson Hall in support of the Minot Symphony Orchestra, into music performed live by Erik, Diana, and Erik Mychal Anderson/
