Summary

Matt tells the lads about the delusional, lazy, universally-loathed narcissist who failed his way through several industries before landing in Republican politics - failing at that as well - and trying to finally attain success as the assassin of President Garfield! A rerelease in time to talk to your family about the show, "Death By Lightning," about Guiteau and President Garfield.
