About this episode
From financial to conspiratorial to sexual, the words 'Clinton' and 'scandal' are regularly found in each others' vicinities. But why?
Don is talking to Professor Peter Ling today to take us back to before Bill Clinton became president, before Monica Lewinsky became a household name, to find out about the scandals that have lurked in the Clintons' shadows.
Peter, from the University of Nottingham, is working on a study of presidential scandals from Watergate to Trump.
Produced and edited by Sophie Gee. Senior Producer was Charlotte Long.
