Episode description
Bernie Ecclestone: From (alleged) child war profiteer to used car salesman to capitalist Che Guevara, the rise of F1's iconic mop-haired billionaire, Bernie Ecclestone, is a fascinating one. Brian and Matt recap Discovery+'s documentary "Lucky!," and highlight surreal moments from his life, like when he ran over a cop in Italy, pressured Tony Blair to keep cigarettes in F1, basically bribed the German government, admitted his upset at not getting invited to a fascist orgy, and much, MUCH, more. It's a fun one, Vankahs!
