409 - Jacques Mesrine, The Man of A Thousand Faces

Jacques Mesrine started committing crimes from a young age and steadily rose through the ranks to become France's 'Public Enemy Number One.' Daring jailbreaks, outlandish heists and multiple murders went down on this man's wrap sheet, all whilst wearing elaborate disguises resulting in the nickname, The Man of a Thousand Faces.

This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 06:28 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).
