Poison. Alcohol. Exposure. And somehow… he just kept going.

This week, Jamie and Leo head to Prohibition era New York to tell the unbelievable story of Michael Malloy, better known as “Iron Mike.”

In the early 1930s, a group of men came up with what they thought was a simple plan: take out a down-on-his-luck bar regular, collect on a life insurance policy, and split the payout. What followed was a series of increasingly desperate (and increasingly ridiculous) attempts to make that plan work.

Drink after drink. Toxic cocktails. Freezing nights left out in the cold. Even food that absolutely should have done the job.

And somehow… it didn’t.

How did Michael Malloy survive so many attempts on his life? And how does a story this bizarre actually end?

Find out in this episode of The Darkives.
