"The man, the myth, the legend." Perhaps this phrase could have been coined after the life of John Raskob. Our hosts begin this episode by answering the question, “can John save his relationship with Pierre DuPont?” Fortunately for everyone involved, he does save that relationship, and he and Pierre move on to bigger and better things.
In this episode we follow John through his early career, the beginning of WWI, finding love in an unusual way and creating a family. With 13 children born within 15 years, how do John and Helena raise their children with a strong faith and business sense? And, how will John recieve unique recognition from the Pope?
