Buckle up for part two of our political scandals series, where corruption wears a pinstripe suit and history smells faintly of bootleg bourbon. This week, we unravel the scandalous saga of the Ohio Gang, the political crew that turned Washington D.C. into their playground of privilege and profit.
Our hosts are handed 5 tantalizing "facts" about this infamous circle... but not all of them are legit.

From shady oil deals to absurd cover-ups, it’s a wild ride through early 20th-century political drama, with our hosts trying to tell historical truth from deliciously deceptive fiction.
