This week, Dave, Neil, and Joanna debate the best on-screen mobster! They start by talking about the history of mobster movies and what they love about them (10:04). Then, they get into pretrial awards and dismissals (28:29). Later, they reveal each of their top three choices and listen to some of your picks to figure out which four should make it to the final poll (40:18).
Now it’s up to you to decide! Who is the best on-screen mobster? You can vote for the winner at TheRinger.com, on The Ringer’s X feed, and in the Spotify app, where you’ll find Trial by Content. The winner will be announced on the next episode!
