ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this week's Classic episode, Ben, Matt and Noel explore some extremely weird dudes known as the Founding Fathers of the United States. They're memorialized in monuments, museums, currency, holidays -- the list goes on. For more than a century they were deified, held up as paragons of statecraft.

You see, the Founding Fathers had secrets... so many, in fact, that we had to make this a two-part episode.
