Jimmy Hoffa was one of the most powerful men in America, a labor leader who rose from poverty to become the voice of millions. But by the time he mysteriously disappeared in 1975, Hoffa’s Teamsters union had ties to organized crime, political scandal, and deadly enemies. In this episode, we track Hoffa’s rise, his high-profile clashes with the Kennedys, and the decision that may have sealed his fate.
