A president gets sick in the lap of another head of state; Marco Rubio learns about the fine art of drinking from a water bottle; and U.S. Senators school us on the finer points of hot dogs and tuna melts.

In each episode of Scandalized, political scientists Charlie Hunt and Jaci Kettler unpack a political scandal from American history: the story, its scandalous details, the political meaning and motivations behind the act.
