The Montrealaise Podcast is a Montreal-based podcast that discusses Canadian tragedies that make us uncomfortable, Montreal-Mal-a-laise. On this episode Denise Mylonakis and Daniel Sucar discuss Montreal's organized crime scene and what happened to Nicola, Vito and Nick Jr. Rizzuto. Who's to blame for their rise and their deaths? They discuss the fictionalization of these events in CityTv's Bad Blood and true events in the podcast documentary, The Dark North by Paul Cherry. Naturally, they discuss mafia classics such as The Godfather, The Sopranos, Donny Brasco and more. Topics explored include Montreal's port, NYC crime families, the Charbonneau Commission, the construction industry, corruption and Jeffrey Epstein. (Daniel also talks about his time at a Half Moon Run music video shoot). Is organized crime inevitable? And, if it stays in the shadow, does the public become complicit?
