    In this episode of Gangland Wire, retired Kansas City Intelligence Unit detective Gary Jenkins dives deep into the life of James “Jimmy the Gent” Burke. Prompted by listener Paul Blackwood of Edinburgh, Gary explores Burke's world beyond the headlines of the Lufthansa heist. From his turbulent childhood in foster homes and orphanages to his rise as a feared and respected mobster in the Lucchese family, Burke's story is one of violence, loyalty, and paranoia. Gary traces Burke's early years of crime, his ties with Henry Hill and Paul Vario, and the meticulous planning of the Lufthansa heist that netted millions—and left a trail of blood in its aftermath. The episode also covers Burke's role in gambling and drug rackets, his eventual downfall in the Boston College point-shaving scandal, and his complicated legacy in mob history. Was Jimmy the Gent a loyal operator, or a ruthless killer who trusted no one? Tune in for a gripping exploration of one of organized crime's most enigmatic figures.

So thank you, Paul. Hope you're listening to this.  I will try to remember to send you an email just before I release this one. However, Paul suggested that I do a story that focuses more specifically on Jimmy Burke, also known as Jimmy the Gent. And I looked around, and I agreed with Paul. Burke is mentioned on many podcasts because we all want to discuss the famous Lufthansa. I want to talk about Henry Hill, some of the other mob people in the Lucchese family, but it seems like I wasn't really finding a show that was just focused on Burke. So, James, Jimmy the Gent, Burke and where he came from and where he went. [0:43] Oh, and don't forget to hit me up on Venmo, buy me a cup of coffee once in a while, or maybe go donate on the podcast. I appreciate it. It helps pay the bills and keep me going. Now, Burke may be one of the most famous mob associates of all times, I would say. Oh, there's some in Chicago. They had a lot of associates in Chicago. But because of, of course, Henry Hill and Robert De Niro playing him, [1:07] why, he probably would be the most famous mob guy who is not a made man. If Henry Hill had not gone into witness protection, if Henry Hill had not done that book with Nicholas Pelleggi, Wise Guys, or if the famous filmmaker Martin Scorsese hadn't taken Wise Guys and Pellegi's book and got Pellegi to help write a script and titled it Goodfellas. And when Robert De Niro took the part of Jimmy the Gent, his place in history was assured, I'll tell you that, especially in mob history. In my humble opinion, this book and film were arguably the best depictions of day-to-day mob life ever that I've ever seen. I thought it was amazing. He did a heck of a job at the casino. [1:55] And to see the egos of these guys, once they turn, are just amazing. When Lefty Rosenthal heard Robert De Niro was going to play him, he told Pelleggio, oh yeah, I'll work with you, I'll work on this. And I'm not sure what brought Henry Hill around,

    Scottish Ballet's new production Mary, Queen of Scots is a punk inspired production which tells the story of the ill-fated queen through the imagination and memories of her cousin, Elizabeth I, who authorised her execution. And a Fringe production Mary Queen of Rock portrays Mary as a rock star in a world in which rock and roll is banned. We discuss why her story continues to inspire so many productions today. Eva Victor, star of Sorry, Baby, the opening film of this year's Edinburgh International Film Festival, talks about her darkly comic treatment of the aftermath of a sexual assault. Theatre critics Fergus Morgan and Neil Cooper talk us through some of the highlights of this year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe - from Eat the Rich (But Maybe Not Me Mates X), a one-woman show by Liverpudlian actor and director Jade Franks in which she tells the story of being a misfit at Cambridge University to Lost Lear, a retelling of Shakespeare's King Lear told through the eyes of a woman with dementia. Plus a live performance from musician Hamish Hawk, who is paying tribute to the late great poet and eccentric Ivor Cutler at this year's Edinburgh International Book Festival, complete with Cutler's own harmonium.

    In his book, Money, Value, and the State: Sovereignty and Citizenship in East Africa (Cambridge University Press, 2024), Kevin Donovan argues that East African decolonization was not coterminous with political sovereignty but rather consisted of a longer process of reorganizing how value was legitimately defined, produced, and distributed. It is an analysis of how postcolonial states tried to remake economic temporalities, space, and standards and how citizens pursued alternatives that subverted economic sovereignty. This is a story of central banking, national currencies, and coffee smuggling, as well as rites of initiation and econometric modelling. An article from the project -- on coffee smuggling, kinship relations, and measurement devices -- was published in Cultural Anthropology, and one on economic crimes, scarcity, and accusation was published in Journal of African History.

    In 1860, a blaze in the Kildare Street Club led to the death of three workers and the destruction of an institution. Together with other fires of the era, this provided the imperative for a municipal fire service. While Captain James Robert Ingram's name is associated with the ‘Whiskey Fire' of 1875, there were many other significant fires, including the destruction of Dublin's Theatre Royal. This all occurred in a time when a new scientific approach to firefighting was taking shape, thanks to the pioneering writing of James Braidwood, influenced by the Great Fire of Edinburgh. This episode explores the emergence of modern firefighting, and how Edinburgh and London paved the way for what followed in Dublin. Las Fallon is the author of The Great Liberties Whiskey Fire (2025) available from Chapters Bookshop and online from Kenny's at: https://www.kennys.ie/shop/the-great-liberties-whiskey-fire-fallon-las-9781916742673-1

    (00:00) Weekend Golf Trip to Scotland This chapter features a lively conversation with Jeff Smith, a Golf Magazine Top 100 teacher, and returning guest Kelly Stenson, who shares her recent golfing adventure in Scotland with her 15-year-old son. We explore the joys of playing golf in new places, especially the bucket-list experience of playing in Scotland. Kelly emphasizes the importance of spending quality time with family on the golf course and encourages listeners to travel and explore new courses, whether abroad or within the United States. We reflect on the cherished memories made during such trips and the lasting impact they have on family bonds. (10:39) Scotland Golf Trip Highlights and Tips This chapter focuses on the joys and challenges of playing golf in windy conditions and the intricacies of planning golf trips with family versus fellow golfers. We share experiences of managing high winds on the golf course, the necessity of adapting one's game, and the importance of having the right equipment, like the three wood. We also explore the dynamics of travel golf, emphasizing the balance between golfing and other activities, especially when traveling with family. Kelly Stenzel, a prominent figure in golf media and a PGA master professional, joins us to recount her recent golf trip to Scotland. She describes the excitement of driving on the left side of the road, the beauty of Edinburgh, and her preference for spontaneous exploration over structured tours, highlighting the captivating allure of St. Andrews and the surrounding countryside. (14:11) Scottish Golf Course Experiences This chapter takes us on a journey through the challenges and joys of driving and golfing in Scotland. We explore the experience of adapting to left-hand driving on narrow roads, often while being guided by vigilant family members. I share my own experiences, navigating with a minivan full of backseat drivers while shifting gears with my left hand. The conversation transitions to golfing adventures, highlighting iconic courses like Cruden Bay and Brora, with its sheep and cows roaming freely. We touch on the unique landscapes and weather conditions that add to the charm and challenge of Scottish golf courses. Additionally, we discuss the accessibility of these courses, noting the combination of private and public options available to enthusiasts willing to explore local offerings. Whether staying in quaint coastal towns or sampling mysterious local dishes, the essence of embracing the local culture and savoring each moment is emphasized throughout our travels. (19:34) Golf Travel Destinations and Cultural Experiences This chapter takes listeners on a global journey of golfing experiences, starting with a recount of a memorable game at Crail, a picturesque golf course near St Andrews, Scotland. We discuss the charm of small towns and the cultural nuances encountered, such as the distinct Scottish dialect and its sometimes playful use. The conversation shifts to the cultural significance of golf in Japanese business etiquette, with anecdotes highlighting the importance of golfing skills in corporate environments. We also share personal travel experiences across the United States and beyond, exploring golf destinations from Florida to the majestic landscapes of Wyoming and Montana, and expressing aspirations to visit Banff and Lake Louise. The episode is filled with laughter and admiration for the beauty of these courses and the unique experiences they offer, underscoring the universal allure of golf as a connector across cultures and landscapes. (34:28) Junior Golf Success and Travel Ideas This chapter explores the excitement and satisfaction of working with junior golfers, highlighting Ava Bunker's impressive performance at the World Juniors in Pinehurst and her journey through age classes in competitive golf. We discuss the joy of seeing young players excel and the importance of recognizing their hard work and achievements. Shifting gears, the idea of creating golf travel trails, similar to Kentucky's Bourbon Trail, is examined, suggesting that golf courses could collaborate to attract tourists by offering travel packages along I-64. We also share lighthearted anecdotes about bourbon tasting experiences, both in Louisville and during travels, while considering personal tastes and preferences in spirits. (39:27) Golf Bunker Tips and Techniques This chapter takes us on a journey to the iconic golf courses of Scotland, where we explore the challenges of navigating the deep, daunting bunkers that define these legendary landscapes. Reflecting on personal experiences at St Andrews, including the infamous Hell Bunker, we discuss the critical techniques required to conquer these sandy obstacles. Key insights include the importance of maintaining good technique, using a lofted club, and applying a forceful, downward swing to create an explosive burst of sand that lifts the ball out. We also recount the story of Bobby Jones and his struggle with the notorious greenside bunker on the 11th hole at St Andrews, emphasizing that even the best can be humbled by these treacherous traps. Wrapping up, we offer a unique analogy likening bunker shots to scooping a spider out of a pool, leaving listeners with practical advice for their next round of golf.
