About this episode
This is a story about the greatest American you've probably never heard about in the greatest political scandal you've probably never heard about. Smedley Darlington Butler - Old Gimlet Eye, The Fighting Quaker - might through his devotion to democracy have saved the US nation at a crucial moment in history. In fact, had he chosen differently the entire world we live in today might have been changed for the worse.
