This is the first of two episodes regarding Argentinian dictator Juan Peron. We begin with a short history of the preceding eras of the nation's history - including the Radical Era and the Infamous Decade. We'll then travel along with Peron through the GOU-led military coup in 1943. We will examine in detail the concept of patronage regarding his time as Secretariat of Labor before being expelled from government and the launching of his own Presidential campaign. We also detail the initial meeting of his second wife Evita through charity related to the San Juan earthquake.

This is the first of two episodes regarding Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. We begin with his life as the son of a wealthy planation owner and continue with the young man as he attempts to enter the political world. The abrupt cancelation of Fidel's congressional bid sent the young man into a tailspin. The attack on the Moncada barracks, the crossing on the Granma from Mexico and his guerrilla war in the Sierra Maestras are all discussed in detail. We'll begin to dive into Castro's first couple of years in power as he solidified his rule as well as Cuba's history with imperialism and Fidel's personality cult.
