It's about a town called Providence in Rhode Island, where organized crime ran rampant throughout the twentieth century. It might get to this century, but I haven't got that far. It tells the story of the Mayor, mob bosses, enforcers, and others.
Episodes are about 20-30 mins long, they have a lot of first hand accounts, and the interviewer is easy to listen to giving the episodes a good flow to them. It's from the makers of the HBO The Jinx series. I highly recommend it for anyone, but especially for anyone interested in true crime.

Welcome to Crimetown
Intro from the website
Welcome to Crimetown, a new series from Gimlet Media and the creators of HBO’s The Jinx. Every season, we’ll investigate the culture of crime in a different American city. First up: Providence, Rhode Island, where organized crime and corruption infected every aspect of public life. This is a story of alliances and betrayals, of heists and stings, of crooked cops and honest mobsters—a story where it’s hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys. Hosted by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier.
