Live From My Office – Détails, épisodes et analyse

One of the last places you may think of for fixing corruption in politics... is Illinois.

Think again!

In a time where justice is something we can't count on anymore, a bad guy got his in a Chicago courtroom. Mike Madigan was the most powerful politician in Illinois for decades. He used that power to make himself rich. 

Those crimes and his history with the best political reporter in America, Rick Pearson, and the great Pat Brady too, on this new episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE!

...of this interview. The last few minutes are as close as it gets to the siloed, narcissistic-sociopathic mind of OJ. It's impossible to explain all that went into getting an interview with OJ SIMPSON in the 90s. He was topic #1 for everyone, everyday, for years.

The most infamous man in the world joined me specifically because of my producer, (Steve) Grunwald, who worked for months to get the deal done. What was the deal?  He would do an hour. That's it. No cash. No prizes. He stayed for 2+

And he said things he hadn't said anywhere else.  I even asked him if he would date again and he said - the ladies like his "bad boy" image.  Stunning.

The new NETFLIX doc, American  Manhunt, is very good and very frustrating.  This interview is that and even funny as well. Hear some history on this encore episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE
