Leon Neyfakh is the creator of Slow Burn, a podcast that examines what it would have been like to live through the events of Watergate as they unfolded in real time. On this episode of The Show About Politics & History, Nate talks with Leon about Nixon, the Watergate coverup, and how those events can help us understand the current impeachment hearings.

Nate and Leon also talk about his new podcast, Fiasco, which looks at the Iran-Contra Affair and the contested 2000 election between Al Gore and George W. Bush.
