In 1980, I proudly joined law enforcement here in South Florida, the "Casablanca" of the Western hemisphere during the era of the big, tropical "snowstorm" that blew northward from South America. I worked in the Organized Crime Bureau (OCB) as a vice cop. Perhaps not as glamorous as TV portrayed us (except the great multicultural cuisine). But the drama could never be overplayed! Join us for “True Crime” stories from those who lived and dined along the mean streets of 1980s South Florida.

“The Bee King” is a term given to the hosts’ - Antonina Gaynor and Jonas Sears - Great Grandfather who was born during the U.S. Civil War years and lived into the 1940s.
