Richard Nixon was one of America's most famous and best loved talk-show guests. In this role, Nixon launched the career of David Frost who used his newfound fame to bring us the wonders of Through the Keyhole and TV-AM. With his natural charm, self-effacing manner and sweaty good-looks, Nixon would often be greeted by crowds of screaming teenagers when he arrived in town - some of them were not content with mere screaming and would throw bottles and condoms filled with paint to show their appreciation. Nixon's talk-show career is believed to have inspired a young Barak Obama.
