Episode description
Everyone gets only one shot at their own last words. Sometimes they're brilliant, sometimes ironic, and other times funny. On this episode we explore the circumstances behind four different figures with totally different types of last words. Caligula's were outspoken and bold, Marie Antoinette's were polite, General John Sedgewick's were ironic, and mafioso Arnold Rothstein kept his mouth shut. Listen in and hear the tales behind these final moments and notable last words.
