Episode Description from the Publisher

I just landed and walked straight into this one — sat down with the Hot Cakes and Hot Takes guys and we went deep. I tell the story of the day I visited my father in Leavenworth and the one question he asked me before I got made, the answer that changed my life. I explain what the oath actually is, because people get it wrong. And I get into something most people have never heard: back in 1982, I bought into Trump Tower in cash with a Russian partner whose brother was KGB — and forty years later, the FBI came knocking, trying to turn that deal into their Russia connection. I'll tell you exactly what I told them. There's a lot more in here — solitary, the war that almost took me with it, and yeah, they even had me do the "funny how" scene. This one's got it all.
