Following the death of Osama bin Laden, an Irish-American criminal called James 'Whitey' Bulger became number 1 on the FBI's most wanted list. The myth of Whitey Bulger even loosely inspired Jack Nicholson's character in the classic movie, The Departed. I spoke with author and journalist Dick Lehr about the stunning story he broke about Bulger while working on The Boston Globe's 'Spotlight' team, and the book 'Black Mass' which he wrote about the notorious criminal.  PLEASE NOTE: Apologies about the echo at times. Hope you can forget it is even there! Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
