"Richard Nixon: Tricky Dick!"

About this episode

Richard Nixon discusses his life, presidency, and the infamous missing tapes in a comedic interview.

Richard Nixon opens up to “Over My Dead Body” in the first interview since his death in 1994 and sheds light on his humble beginnings, his courtship and marriage to Pat, his rise to becoming the 37th President of the United States –- and later,  his spectacular fall from grace. He’ll also tell us what was on those missing tapes! See for yourself why legendary TV producer Norman Lear says, “...this is the best idea for a comedy series that I can remember. It’s absolutely hilarious.”
