American History Tellers · St. Valentines Day Massacre: Closing In On Capone | 3 · 18 Feb 2026 podcast

So he takes off.

He leaves town.

And he's got a big decision to make.

This is really, in some ways, the make or break moment for Capone.

Because at that point, he could have said, you know what?

I'm going to take my money and go.

I'm going to walk away from the table.

I've made enough.

It's not worth the risk at this point.

But he makes a crucial decision not just to come back and to resume business, but to sort of embrace the celebrity involved with his role to say, yeah, I'm a gangster.

Yes, I'm a bootlegger.

So what?

You know what I'm doing.

People want my product.

And the politicians and the cops, they all know what I'm doing.

So what do you want to know about McSwiggan?
