The Queen's Gambit-Gate
from Trash and Treasury · host Trash and Treasury
"White pawn to Queen's Bishop Four" We've been practicing our Sicilian defence and we're ready to become chess Grandmasters. From drugging kids in orphanages to the gender dynamics of the world of chess, check mate - we're talking all things the Queens Gambit. Let's play! And you've heard the term Watergate, but what does it mean? It's the political scandal that has named all scandals that came after. Cable-gate. Gamer-gate. Email-gate. Pizza-gate. Fart-gate. Toilet Paper-gate. It's the scandal involving secret tapes, journalists, and an anonymous informant called 'Deep Throat'. Before there were Trump's impeachments, there was Nixon. As January 26 is not a day for celebration for many, we're not treating it as a holiday so we're still posting our regular episode.
