Bobby Chacon, FBI Special Agent and the team lead who developed the FBI's very first dive team joins me to talk crazy stories from the dive team, working mob cases in NYC, and how much sharks love the nosey white powder. Plus, his consulting in Hollywood to include CRIMINAL MINDS, and much more. It's true, sharks love the white powder nose goodness (can't say the real word), just like bears do. Bobby retells the story of how they pulled bags of white powder out of the ocean from a drug running operation, and how the sharks acted after they swam through a busted bag.

American Historian and bestselling author H.W. Brands joins this 114th episode to discuss his new book AMERICA FIRST. He's the senior chair of History at the University of Texas, and has authored almost twenty books on American history. Brands is also a Pulitzer Prize finalist. AMERICA FIRST, is a book that narrates the fierce debate over America’s role in the world in the runup to World War II through its two most important figures: President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who advocated intervention, and his isolationist nemesis, aviator and popular hero Charles Lindbergh. We talk about the leadup to World War II, and how those events of the past are similar to the events of today. This is especially important as we recognize the 85th Anniversary of World War 2 in Sept 2024. Are we headed to World War 3? Will this 2024 election define history? Watch and learn!
