What happens to the nation when the President has a stroke? Historically, the answer is more complicated than you'd think. In this episode, we explore what America was like under President Woodrow Wilson including his life before, during, and after WWI. We also take care to tackle his controversies as well.
Perhaps most importantly, however, we also discuss the role of Edith Wilson in all of this, and how she rose to the challenge when her country needed her the most.
