BAG MAN
The Wild Crimes, Audacious Cover-Up, and Spectacular Downfall of a Brazen Crook in the White House
BAG MAN is based on Rachel's Peabody Award-Nominated Podcast of the same name that has been downloaded 12.2 million times. It is the knockdown, drag-out, untold story of the "other" scandal that rocked Richard Nixon's White House, and reset the rules for crooked presidents to come.
In this blockbuster account, BAG MAN details the investigation that exposed Spiro Agnew's crimes, the attempts at a cover-up - which involved future president George H. W. Bush - and the backroom bargain that forced Agnew's resignation but also spared him years in federal prison. BAG MAN expands and deepens the story of Spiro Agnew's scandal and its lasting influence on our politics, our media, and our understanding of what it takes to confront a criminal in the White House.
