S32E15: Horace, Augusta, and Baby Doe Tabor | Colorado’s Trashiest Triangle

While researching for her Done & Dunne podcast, Alicia came across a story right up our alley: a scandalous affair, secret marriages, secret divorces, bigamy, and all set in America’s Wild West. Meet Horace Tabor, once one of America’s richest men and briefly a US Senator for Colorado, his long-suffering wife Augusta, and the mistress Horace couldn’t wait to wed, again and again, Baby Doe Tabor.
