All the President's Minutes is a podcast where conversations about movies, journalism, politics and history meet. Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For minute 51, I join Vague Visages' founding editor and freelance video essayist/writer - Q.V (Quinn) Hough. Q.V and I discuss the looming power, zooming into Woodward's psyche and Redford reminds Q.V of his father because you never quite know what he's thinking.
