It Was 20 Years Ago Today

Episode #79 -- William S. Sessions


Listen Later

Friday, November 2, 2007.  Twenty years ago today, William S. Sessions was sworn in as the new director of the FBI.  I talk a little about his career, and about one of his most widespread legacies:  'Winners Don't Use Drugs.'

Special thanks to Art at Ground Kontrol Classic Arcade in Portland, who took a look at some of their vintage machines and confirmed the message is still there.

After the show there is a promo for one of my favorite podcasts, Yog Radio.

Today's episode music is from 'Yeh So What,' by Gery Tinkeleberg.  Our theme music is composed and performed by Marc Rose.
