Hi, The Untold History of Sports in America fans! Dive into the unreal story of George Remus—teetotaling bootlegger, erudite madman, inspiration for Jay Gatsby—and the pioneering prosecutor who took him down with the new podcast show Remus: The Mad Bootleg King.

About Remus: The Mad Bootleg King: George Remus was a teetotaling bootlegger, erudite madman, and real-life inspiration for Jay Gatsby. His wife, Imogene, was his crown jewel. Together they ruled their empire from Cincinnati, bribing officials and living a life of luxury. But Remus’ world came crashing down when a pioneering prosecutor named Mabel Walker Willebrand went after him, his wife betrayed him, and he was sent to prison. It sent Remus spiraling into madness — with deadly results.
