Welcome to another captivating episode of “Tales of the Bourbon King,” the podcast that examines the life and true crimes of Jazz Age bootleg baron George Remus. In this episode, we dive deep into a little-known aspect of the crime mastermind’s life – an intriguing commitment to extreme sports and what that chapter uncovers about his journey to infamy.

Birth of a Criminal Mastermind -- The Weight and Consequences of George Remus's Early Life
For George Remus, the path from German immigrant to the bootleg king of the Jazz Age began humbly, as his near-destitute family first set foot in America. Within a decade, with the family disintegrating, young George -- barely a teenager -- took on the mantle as main breadwinner and support system. What initially seemed like the American dream of success via hard work and determination was planted in Remus. At the same time, however, the burden and responsibility hardened him, creating and reinforcing personality traits that would eventually lead him on a resolutely criminal path. The mass...

Millions of immigrants arrived in America in the late nineteenth century at Castle Gardens, the precursor to Ellis Island. While many people today might imagine Castle Garden as a safe haven after the arduous Atlantic crossing, there was a dark underbelly to the immigration story that opens us to the sordid history of the era. It is 1882 – As waves of newcomers from Europe arrive on American shores, they are greeted not by ticker-tape parades or relatives eager to welcome their family member to the US, but by a group of unscrupulous individuals who have created a thriving ne...

George Remus and Kentucky Bourbon
Bootleg King George Remus believed that the Eighteenth Amendment was an immoral law – against the will of the people. In Remus’s mind, any law that was corrupt could be broken…and break Prohibition he did…on a grand, gaudy scale. What set the Bourbon King apart from other criminals, bootleggers, and crooks who were trying to make a killing off booze boils down to two words: “Kentucky Dew.” Kentucky Dew was the name given to Kentucky bourbon, then and now the finest in the world. Remus centered his budding empire on acquiring high-quality bourbon by any means...

Prohibition has often been romanticized as a time of speakeasies and flappers, fun-filled nights dancing and partying without a care in the world. People get images of booze-filled parties and glamorous couples gathering poolside from F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby or romantic notions of beautiful women with bobbed haircuts and blaring jazz music playing into the wee hours of the morning. It is called "The Roaring Twenties" after all. The reality was far darker. Prohibition had a devastating human toll, leading to an increase in violence, organized crime, and deaths related to alcohol consumption. To fu...
