Introducing Remus: The Mad Bootleg King
Hi, One Day University fans! Dive into the unreal story of George Remus—teetotaling bootlegger, erudite madman, inspiration for Jay Gatsby—and the pioneering prosecutor who took him down with the new podcast show Remus: The Mad Bootleg King.
About Remus: The Mad Bootleg King: George Remus was a teetotaling bootlegger, erudite madman, and real-life inspiration for Jay Gatsby. His wife, Imogene, was his crown jewel. Together they ruled their empire from Cincinnati, bribing officials and living a life of luxury. But Remus’ world came crashing down when a pioneering prosecutor named Mabel Walker Willebrand went after him, his wife betrayed him, and he was sent to prison. It sent Remus spiraling into madness — with deadly results.

The History of Fast Food
Fast food has been around in the U.S. since the rise of establishments like White Castle in the 1920s. It has changed not only what and how we eat, but the worldwide supply chain, politics, pop culture and more.
Georgetown History professor Marcia Chatelain explores this in her Pulitzer Prize-winning book, “Franchise: The Golden Arches in Black America” and in her One Day University lecture, “Drive-Thru America.” She joins host Steven Schragis to discuss how America came to be the fast food nation.
