I'm Leon Nafak, and I'm the host of Slow Burn, Watergate. Before I started working on this show,

everything I knew about Watergate came from

the movie All the President's Men. Do you remember how it ends? Woodward and Bernstein are

sitting with their typewriters, clacking away. And then there's this rapid montage of newspaper stories,

about campaign aides and White House officials getting convicted of crimes, about audio tapes coming

out that proved Nixon's involvement

in the cover-up. The last story we see is Nixon resigns. It takes a little over a minute in the

movie. In real life, it took about two years. Five men were arrested early Saturday while trying

to install eavesdropping equipment. It's known as the Watergate incident.

What was it like to experience those two years in real time?

What were people thinking and feeling as the break-in at Democratic Party headquarters went from a weird little caper to a constitutional crisis that brought down the president?

The downfall of Richard Nixon was stranger, wilder, and more exciting than you can imagine.

Over the course of eight episodes, this show is going to capture what it was like to live

through the greatest political scandal of the 20th century.

With today's headlines, once again, full of corruption, collusion, and dirty tricks,

it's time for another look at the gate that started it all.
