  • Discovering Jimmy Hoffa: Part One - Main Street vs. Wall Street

    For our first half of Discovering Jimmy Hoffa, we jump into what feels like a historical mystery - who is this man that seems to be a punchline?

Though he was the face of the Labor Movement and held ties to Civil Rights and championed the rights for workers, there is so much more to this person than just the fact he disappeared. This first episode goes through the the histories and mysteries that his life took. Join Matthew Robinson and me to see what you didn't know was interconnected.
