My Dad Secretly Worked For The Mob!

Talk Is Jericho

About this episode

Actor and comedian Barry Rothbart talks about his new limited series podcast, Searching For Allan Rothbart. It’s the incredible true story of his father’s secret double life as a mid-level mobster for the Gambino crime family, and the shocking twists Barry uncovered through deathbed confession tapes his dad left behind. Barry shares what it was like discovering the truth about his dad’s crimes, running mob errands as a teenager, and even finding out about possible sibling he never knew he had. He details the family secrets, FBI heat, the Bon Jovi lie, and the wild interviews he recorded with his mom and his dad’s old associates while creating the series. Barry also opens up about confronting who his father really was, how it changed his own life, and why telling this story in a serialized audio doc became both cathartic and devastating.
