Summary

This episode dives into the enduring mystery surrounding the 1975 disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa, one of America's most powerful and controversial labor leaders. From his humble beginnings to his rise as president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Hoffa's story is one of ambition, strategic organizing, and deep entanglement with organized crime. The episode explores the circumstances leading up to his vanishing act, including his release from prison, his bitter feud with mob figures and union rivals, and his final, fateful meeting at the Machus Red Fox Restaurant. Despite decades of intense investigation, numerous theories, and countless searches, Hoffa's body has never been found, leaving behind a persistent cold case that continues to fascinate and baffle.
