Dan and Alana revisit the story of Ken Eto, nicknamed “Tokyo Joe,” whose experience of racist persecution and American internment camps set him up for a life lived in the margins — and high up inside the Chicago Outfit. That is, before a fabulous FBI agent with a gun in her Gucci derails his underworld climb.
