Watergate Scandal: President Nixon’s Fall from Power

Step inside the most explosive political scandal in U.S. history—the Watergate scandal—with American Scandal Report, hosted by Oz Dalton and powered by Skoob’s AI-driven podcast studio. This gripping episode unpacks the psychological warfare, political paranoia, and corruption that led to the shocking fall of President Richard Nixon.

Explore how Nixon’s obsession with control fueled a campaign of sabotage, wiretaps, and dirty tricks carried out by the Committee to Re-Elect the President (CREEP). Dive into the minds of key players like G. Gordon Liddy, John Dean, and the legendary journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, who exposed the cover-up that rocked the nation.

Uncover how CIA secrets, the Vietnam War, and foreign interference shaped a scandal far bigger than just a break-in. Learn how flawed psychology, memory distortions, and paranoia triggered one of the worst crises in American democracy—and how it permanently changed the relationship between the White House, the press, and the American people.
