Welcome to Boston Confidential, Beantown's True Crime podcast.

Boston is a great city, but there's more to it than the Freedom Trail in Fenway Park.

There's a startling underbelly to the city, and Boston Confidential will take you on a guided tour of the hub of the universe, Boston, Massachusetts.

All right, guys, let's get to it.

Hey guys, welcome back to Boston Confidential.

It's a beautiful morning here in the hub of the universe as we conclude our summer season, the end of August.

I dropped one kid back off to college with one more to go.

And then I'll be an empty nester, I think, at least bar time, right?

I dropped my daughter off to Washington, D.C. for her junior year.

And, man, what a beautiful city that is.

Now, don't get me wrong, I don't like most of what goes on in Washington, D.C.

But damn, is it beautiful? But it was super humid. We're in the Georgetown section on the water,

and there was no breeze to be at. It was kind of stagnant. And I was talking to some people at the restaurant that we were at. And they said, yeah,

Washington, D.C. is kind of in a basin. That's why they're hit with so much humidity.

But walking around Georgetown, man, it's beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend it.

We drove down and flew back. The flight's only about 90 minutes or less from Logan.

So it's a great getaway.

There's always deals on hotels.

There's a ton of hotels in D.C.
