Hiding Joe
The legacy
Two confidence men
Gangster values
Tail gunner Joe
Roy
Pillow talk
The taste of blood
Hoffa
The gas in the room
It's Bobby!
Panther piss
The little man
Jack's hair would have turned white
First Ethel, now us
The glamour preacher
A wall-banger of a date
Roy Cohn redux

The hamlet stage
And so he gave them that
The kibosh on those jaspers
