    Jul 1 2024

    We're going BIG for our 50th episode! This week we're diving into the history and lore of one of the country's most infamous gangsters (and Hoosier native) John Dillinger. There's no one better to join us for this conversation than former broadcast news reporter, Joe Melillo.

    Joe has formed a team of investigators and journalists who are on a mission to exhume John Dillinger's body and confirm once and for all if public enemy number one was actually shot and killed by the FBI on July 22, 1934. He's serving up all the facts that have led to countless conspiracy theories in his new podcast, Digging Up Dillinger which is out NOW!
