Our April fool: Dan Sickles - a podcast by DC by Foot

“He’s so fun to talk about. I think he’s kind of perfect for April Fools because the story is just so over the top and ridiculous.”

We have something special for April Fools, a scandal for the ages, full of murder, sex, intrigue and the US Congress! We are talking about the scandalous life of Dan Sickles.

Daniel Sickles was a bad husband, a murderer, and a questionable member of Congress. Join us as we discuss his many delicious and often hilarious exploits.
