After two weeks and nearly three hours of their Watergate at 50 series, Shane and David finally get to the genesis of it all: the June 17, 1972 break-in at the Watergate complex.
The guys walk you through how all those names and faces laid out in Episode 2 came into play in what became the greatest political scandal ever. Plus, the extra-legal measures taken by the White House in the days after the break-in as a cover-up is quickly put into action; everything works great and Nixon is re-elected in a landslide; but then everything comes apart when one guy sends a letter to a judge.
