E25 Escape From Alcatraz

In this episode the Brothers discuss some other brothers in crime: John and Clarence Anglin (and their pal Frank Morris). Did these brothers successfully escape from Alcatraz? What did they do to end up there in the first place? What was their plan? Why are the U.S. Marshals STILL investigating this case over a half century later? We answer all these questions and more while covering the escape from Alcatraz!
