Join Jack and Mark as they dust off the history books and take another look at the lives and behaviours of some more famous dictators in this part two of "Deranged Leaders of the Modern Era". We discuss Saddam Hussein and his rise to power in Iraq with the Ba'ath Party, before his eventual demise in 2006. We take a closer look at the spending habits of Grace "Gucci" Mugabe, and try to balance the books in Zimbabwe, the World's Worst Economy. We rename Swaziland with King Mswati III, and also take a glance at the perils of 1970s Equatorial Guinea.
Hosts: Mark Stribling & Jack Williamson
