What if everything you thought you knew about how the Cold War ended was wrong? 

Forget about Reagan, Gorbachev. Walesa, Pope John Paul II, they were barely bit actors.

You'll also learn why so many Americans drink so much vodka and why there are so many rehab centers. You'll learn so much more. 

Cornering a market, sabotage, spies, a life-changfing drive-in movie, fake sex, rhesus monkeys and so much more.

Standoff will tell you the REAL story.
