The first installment of the series The Presidents of the United States of America (Yes All of Them), the "Founding Fathers" are a particularly polarizing bunch. In this episode Cat and Amy will discuss the first four US presidents: George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison; and the ways their public embrace of freedom and opportunity for all often clashed with their private lives and misdeeds.
