Rich Cohen is the author of "The Last Pirate of New York" - A ghost ship, a killer, and the birth of a gangster nation. Along with a ton of other really interesting books. Rich and I cover a lot of ground in this talk and I think you'll really enjoy it.
In this episode:
- Who was the last pirate of New York?
- The running themes that unite all of Rich's books
- The Rolling Stones, Chess Records, Pirates of the Caribbean, sugar substitutes, and a whole lot more.
