Few scandals in U.S. history have been as major and consequential as Watergate. What began as a small-scale burglary would eventually lead to the resignation of President Nixon. And, it was the scandal that launched a thousand ‘gates’.  On each episode of Wondery’s podcast The Big Flop, comedians join host Misha Brown to chronicle one of the biggest pop-culture fails of all time and try to answer the age-old question: who thought THIS was a good idea? The Watergate scandal was a multi-year ordeal with many twists and turns. As the investigation unfolded, it became clear that this one went all the way to the top.  This is just a preview of The Big Flop. You can listen to the full episode wherever you get your podcasts, or at wondery.fm/thebigflop.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
