The great early 19th-century American eccentric, "Lord" Timothy Dexter strolls his demesne pondering a 108 year-old curse.
With an election just a couple days away, we're off to the races with presidential candidates of and other overachieving eccentrics.
Topics include:
- The third party candidates of the 20th century who helped shape today's political landscape.
- October Surprises that jolted 19th century POTUS races.
- The one-and-only "Lord" Timothy Dexter, the bats**t crazy Newburyport merchant who fell repeatedly ass-backwards into a fortune.
And as promised in the show...we give you Lord Dexter's grand "palace", bedecked with statues of other great men.
