Watergate: Deep Throat, Deeper Trouble with Langston Kerman and Gareth Reynolds
In 1972, five clumsy burglars broke into the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate Hotel. They were armed with tear gas pens, wads of cash, and enough surveillance equipment to make the NSA blush - and they were immediately caught. What could’ve been written off as the dumbest burglary in history swiftly unraveled through leaks from gossip queen Martha “Mouth of the South” Mitchell and an investigation by reporters Woodward and Bernstein. Suddenly it became clear that the bonkers attempt to cover up the crime went all the way to the top - and President Richard Nixon was going to pay for it. Langston Kerman (Bust Down, The Boys) and Gareth Reynolds (The Dollop, We're Here to Help) put on their bellbottoms and join Misha to untangle the web of lies, the paranoia, and the "Deep Throat” of it all.
