Every scandal begins with a lie. But the truth will come out. And then comes the fallout and the outrage. Scandals have shaped America since its founding. From business and politics to sports and society, we look on aghast as corruption, deceit and ambition bring down heroes and celebrities, politicians and moguls. And when the dust finally settles, we’re left to wonder: how did this happen? Where did they trip up, and who is to blame? From the creators of American History Tellers, Business Wars and Tides of History comes American Scandal, where we take you deep into the heart of America’s dark side to look at what drives someone to break the rules and what happens when they’re caught. Hosted by Lindsay Graham. Need more American Scandal? With Wondery+, enjoy exclusive seasons, binge new seasons first, and listen completely ad-free.

Dear Mr Graham, 1/3/25: Amending an earlier review: did not believe you could out do Boeing but Mr Graham, you did with Challenger. ABSOLUTELY GRIPPING! At the end of a “Boeing” episode you said you read each review. After completing the “Boeing” I knew I had to write this review. You and your team took a complicated, recent topic, that I followed in the news but I must admit, I did not fully understand, and made it such that I can now very knowledgeably speak about it and the history of Boeing overall. Thank you for this and all the excellent history podcasts you all do. “Boeing” was top notch stuff. And to those who haven’t listened to it yet, man do I envy you that first listen.
Frustrated

Great content, great host. But why are episodes after the first now locked behind a paywall?? Even seasons that have been out for a few years. I really enjoyed the Enron series and wanted to listen again. Nope. I get that podcasting is a job, but why make listeners pay now for old content they were able to enjoy with ads before? Subscribing to every podcast network I enjoy costs more than I can afford, and it’s frustrating
Greed

The subject matter is mostly interesting but the production lacks entertainment value. The narrator does all voices including womans. Its ok but becomes boring after listening for awhile. Ads are abundant and often. Now they have a pay wall as well. These feeds that do both ads and pay walls seem to lack the understanding of either a subscription or ads but not both. Too many podcasts with better content, superior production, less annoying add and no pay wall to listen.
Competent production that’s too neutral

It’s a quality made shoes, just expect a both sides take to every single story. Harm kids for the rest of their lives?? It’s alright, you were just an ambitious judge!!
