John Ganz, author of When the Clock Broke: Con Men, Conspiracists, and How America Cracked Up in the Early 1990s, joins The Realignment. Marshall and John discuss 2020s nostalgia for the 1990s, the misplaced belief that the fall of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War represented the "end of history," the early 1990s rise of outsider, third-party presidential candidates, and the role that con men and conspiracy theories played in cracking up the country.
