    We're going back almost 100 years for this one. The fall of 1929 Kansas City and the world were riding high. No one knew the Great Depression was only a month away- and our murder victim did not know that a card game he was playing would turn deadly.

    This case, known as "The Bridge Murder" would captivate the nation. AND, several of our previous episodes will intertwine with this one! Murder or self-defense- you decide!

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We hope you have a wonderful holiday.



    This month's episode is really chilling - a Kansas City Kansas resident got away with murder for decades until the new Cold Case Division utilized DNA to catch him. And even more disturbing - he might not be alone, the FBI thinks long haul truckers could be responsible for many murders.

    This month's drink "La Flama Blanca"

    Two parts top shelf tequila or mescal

    One part amaretto

    garnish with a cherry -stir and enjoy!

Jamie and Alex, telling a lot of great stories which I had never heard, despite being a native resident to KC. This podcast also teaches a little bit about the cities history with each new story. I’m excited to learn more each month.
