Historia
In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

The Roman gladiator has long been a figure of fascination. Portrayed frequently in fine art and popular culture alike, the gladiator is both a real part of history and a legend of a romanticized past. We know that these men entertained Roman audiences by fighting in dangerous and often deadly games. But who were the gladiators? What were their lives like?

One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer. In this chilling tale, Burrough raises important questions of whether serial killers can be recognized before they kill or rehabilitated after they do. It is also a story of Texas politics and power that led the good citizens of the town of Temple to enable a demon who was their worst nightmare.

Excellent book!
Really enjoyed the podcast format of this book. The last part of the book that goes into the US withdrawal from Afghanistan is very compelling stuff, but I also enjoyed the story of the black mambas , a group of all women Rangers protecting South African wildlife from poachers.

the heroism aspect of the story
I feel this should be added to everyone's list of literary works to read. it is awareness that should be spread as far and wide as possible. We don't give enough credit to the man and woman who serve our country.

interesting stories, sound balance off
I enjoyed listening to these stories and would have enjoyed it more if the sound was better. Often the host was so soft that i had to crank the volume to hear him, then the music between, introducing episodes was soo loud it was jarring.
