    The Iran Contra Scandal

    President Ronald Reagan faced two major problems in 1981. A Communist revolution had taken hold in Nicaragua. And in Lebanon, militants were holding American hostages. Reagan's team created a secret plan to solve both issues at once. It was highly illegal and it turned into one of the most shocking scandals in American history. The story connects unlikely dots: weapons, hostages, rebels, and lies. Be the first to know about Wondery’s newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!
