  • The Hell Gate 2026 Judicial Convention
    May 16 2026

    For the past year, Hell Gate and Type Investigations have been working the phones, haunting courtrooms, hanging out in strange outerborough political clubhouses, and filing endless requests for transcripts to produce the long-awaited follow-up to the Eric Adams Table of Success, our (first) award-winning collaboration.


    Now, please welcome to the stand Courts of Contempt—our investigation into the machinations of New York's broken judicial system. Earlier this month, Hell Gate packed the house at Littlefield in Brooklyn to unveil our investigation, and now you can enjoy that experience as well in podcast form!
