In this episode we look back at the relationship between President Richard Nixon and California Governor and future President Ronald Reagan. As you will see it is obvious that Richard Nixon is actually working to open the doors of opportunity to his fellow Californian as he brings jobs to the state and arranges for Reagan to spend time with dignitaries from around the world too,
Reagan in turn offers up his own ideas and suggestions on how to handle some of the world situations confronting President Nixon, from appointments to the Supreme Court, to who he thinks would be a good Attorney General, to a rather ugly call in the wake of the United Nations voting to expel Taiwan as it excepted into its membership the People's Republic of China.
Finally, we will listen in as an embattled President, who has just fired his most trusted advisors in April of 1973, receives a phone call from Ronald Reagan, who offers up his support as only a friend would attempt to do. It is an intimate look into the relationship between arguably two of the five greatest American Presidents in all of American History.
