About this episode

In September 2023, Enrique Tarrio was sentenced to 22 years in prison for seditious conspiracy - trying to overthrow the US government. He was the leader of the Proud Boys, a far right group which was at the forefront of the Capitol riots on 6 January 2021. So was Tarrio the puppet master behind the assault on US democracy, or simply a convenient scapegoat? With exclusive access to him in the years leading up to his arrest, Our World tells the extraordinary story of one of the most elusive and divisive characters in modern America.
