That Time Martha Mitchell Opened Her Mouth

That Time Martha Mitchell Opened Her Mouth

We're living in a golden age of Martha Mitchell content, and we couldn't be more delighted.

Fresh off the success of Starz's limited series Gaslit, Kasey walks Mark through the life and scandals of our favorite Watergate whistleblower, who was discredited as a drunken grotesque by the Nixon administration as she tried to tell everyone who would listen that Nixon and CREEP were involved in the Watergate break-in.

From her appearance on Laugh-In (where Lily Tomlin shunned her) to her imprisonment in a California hotel room by bodyguards to the chrysanthemum arrangement anonymously sent to her funeral that proclaimed "Martha Was Right," here is the wild, unlikely story of an Arkansas woman who spoke up, spoke out, and then slipped into semi-obscurity for decades.
