Andy and Cliff dive into some of the most bizarre, unexpected, and downright ridiculous failed presidential assassination attempts in history—including the time Andrew Jackson beat his would-be assassin with a cane, Teddy Roosevelt shrugged off a bullet to give a 90-minute speech, and an attacker tried to hijack a 747 to take out Richard Nixon.
