060 — Congressman Mark Foley Sent You a Message (with Michael Springthorpe‪)‬ Sordid History

    • Comedy

My close personal friend Michael Springthorpe makes his 5th appearance on the pod to talk about the sex scandal and downfall of Florida congressman Mark Foley, who he met as a child. We recount Foley's almost ten-year run of sending sexual messages to underaged men, and have a lot of questions. Then, as we are wont to do, we go on a tangent about the film Spotlight and then about Palm Beach County, where Springthorpe is from and Foley was a congressman.

All in all, good stuff.
