Willy Nast
City of Lights
City of Lights is a true crime podcast about real life after the crime. In 2002, in the city of Aurora, Illinois, an 18-year-old named Jeff Signorelli was killed in a completely random act of violence. His murder remains unsolved. In the years following Jeff's murder, his parents Al and Mary Ann led efforts to make Aurora a safer place. But those efforts often put them at odds with leaders in Aurora, including the mayor and chief of police. As the investigation into Jeff's murder grew cold, their grief was amplified by a growing frustration. Host Willy Nast (born and raised in Aurora) examines the lives of Al, Mary Ann, and others in Aurora who were affected by Jeff's murder. Instead of asking "whodunnit?" or "how?" or "why?," the question he seeks to answer is "what now?" All six episodes of City of Lights drop on February 4th, 2026.
