Welcome back to the home of the oxymoron. Evil genius. He asked the newspaper to print his obituary early so he'd enjoy it. That's like hiding at your own funeral. Yeah, a big, great gig. I'm Russell Kane. Join me to weigh in on whether the biggest players in history are more evil or genius. Becoming that rich, I'd say that is some level of genius. It also helps that it's a long time ago, right?

It's like the podcast version of telling your kids the ice cream van plays music

when it's out of ice cream.

Listen to Evil Genius on BBC Sounds.

On tonight's program, a cartoonist topples, a major politician who goes on to kill himself. A journalist

hangs out with billionaires. A writer says that the military ought to be jailed. And the

scholar says that Richard Nixon and Barack Obama are more alike than people may imagine.

Tonight we fly southwards down to Latin America,

as Venezuela is in political crisis

and as Brazil impeaches its president,

Dilma Rousseff, and a global audience waits

for the August Rio Olympics.

The moment of victory, thousands of pro-impeachment supporters

celebrating after one of the most important yet divisive political battles

since the return of democracy to Brazil 30 years ago.

It's my dear ma'am, oh la calenios, so's me, Milito.

Oh,

Kalenjo,

so brigado.

Oh,

thank you,

come.
