Historical Gangster’s Paradise / Wendy Kay Promoter / Passionate Living S6E8

Welcome to a thrilling episode of Passionate Living! This week, we’re stepping into the shadows of America’s past with a visit to the Gangster Museum of America in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Once a favorite hideout for infamous mobsters like Al Capone, Owney Madden, and Mae West, Hot Springs boasts a rich and surprising history filled with gangsters, gamblers, baseball legends, and even presidential figures.

Explore how this charming spa town became a hotbed of organized crime during Prohibition, and why it still fascinates history lovers and true crime fans today. From speakeasies to bathhouses, and from illegal casinos to the underground world of the mob, this episode dives into the city’s most compelling stories.

Plus, I get to speak with the incredible Wendy Kay, a veteran music promoter who has spent over four decades on the road with some of music’s biggest stars. Her behind-the-scenes tales from the music world are as passionate as they are inspiring.
