Summary: <p><img style="margin-right: 5px; float: left;" src="//MidnightExpress.podbean.com/mf/web/py4gsw/Mafia.jpg" alt="Mafia.jpg" width="200" height="133">BK and Pete don their pinstripe suits and go to the mattresses to review <em>World of Darkness: Mafia</em>. These Good Fellas discuss the themes of a good Mafia game, draw similarities between organised crime and the Masquerade, and consider whether the supernatural has any place in a setting like this.</p><br> <p>In between chronicle ideas, you'll find a list of great movies, documentaries, and books as inspiration for Mafia-inspired stories, and some suggested old World of Darkness books to accompany this title.</p><br> <p><em><strong>Congratulations</strong> </em>to Diesel_Van84 who won the first Midnight Express Story Seed Competition and recieves a voucher for Drivethrurpg.</p><br> <p>You can add any information to the <a href="http://themidnightexpresspodcast.gamerz.co/topic394.html"><strong>V5 forum thread</strong> here</a>.</p><br> <p>Our heartfelt condolences go out to the family, friends, and colleagues or Stewart Wieck as we pause to pay our own respects. Stewart's work inspired many a good tale and fired the imagination - his legacy of purple books will not easily fade.</p><br> <p>The show notes links are (as promised) ready to rival the Appendices of <em>The Lord of the Rings</em>, so here we go:</p><br> <p><strong>Podcasts</strong></p><br> <p>Check our<em> <a href="http://midnightexpress.podbean.com/p/affiliates-and-other-wod-podcasts/">Affiliates, Blogs, and other Podcasts</a></em> page. </p><br> <p><strong>Gaming Books</strong> (<em>please use the affiliate links to support the show</em>)</p><br> <p><a href="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/19/Ascensions-Right-Hand?it=1?affiliate_id=264139%20"><em>Ascension's Right Hand</em></a>, <em><a href="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/250/The-Risen?it=1?affiliate_id=264139">The Risen</a></em>,<em><a href="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/2548/Killing-Streets?it=1?affiliate_id=264139"> Killing Streets</a></em>, <em><a href="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/235/Project-Twilight?it=1?affiliate_id=264139">Project Twilight</a></em>, <em><a href="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/207965/Unknown-Armies-Book-One-Play?affiliate_id=264139">Unknown Armies</a></em>, <em><a href="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/55567/Trail-of-Cthulhu?affiliate_id=264139">Trail of Cthulhu</a></em>, <em><a href="http://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/124156/W20-Cookbook?affiliate_id=264139">W20 Cookbook</a></em>.</p><br> <p><strong>Movies & Documentaries</strong></p><br> <p>The Godfather, Good Fellas, The Sopranos, Gangs of New York, The Untouchables, The Departed, Casino, Cocaine Cowboys (by Billy Corben).</p><br> <p><strong>Other books</strong></p><br> <p><em><a href="https://www.bookdepository.com/The-Power-of-the-Dog-Don-Winslow/9780099464983?ref=grid-view&qid=1499392374292&sr=1-1">The Power of the Dog</a></em>, <em><a href="https://www.bookdepository.com/The-Cartel-Don-Winslow/9781784750640?ref=pd_detail_1_sims_b_p2p_1">The Cartel</a></em>, <em><a href="https://www.bookdepository.com/Chasing-the-Scream-Johann-Hari/9781408857823?ref=grid-view&qid=1499392433135&sr=1-1">Chasing the Scream</a></em>, <a href="https://www.bookdepository.com/Donnie-Brasco-Joseph-D-Pistone/9780451192578?ref=grid-view&qid=1499392462821&sr=1-2">Donnie Brasco</a>. </p><br> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>See you in thirty!</em></p><br> <p><strong>Hosts:</strong> BK & Pete</p><br> <p> </p><br> <p> </p><br> <p> </p><br> <p> </p><br> <p> </p>
