Who wanted the president dead? And is the unexpected murder of the lead suspect the first clue in the answer to this mystery? Our hosts, Rob Reiner and Soledad O’Brien, discuss why the question “Who Killed JFK?” endures in the American imagination 60 years later. Did President Kennedy have a target on his back when he transformed from ‘Cold Warrior’ to global peacemaker? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Was there a coverup? The Warren Commission published a report in 1964 that claimed Lee Harvey Oswald was the sole gunman. But over a decade later, the House Select Committee on Assassinations claimed that President Kennedy was killed as the result of a ‘conspiracy.’ Why the conflicting results? With revelations over the last 60 years, flaws in both investigations are exposed.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What does the forensic evidence reveal? We start at the scene of the crime, move to the hospital and end with the strange autopsy. And with breaking news from one of Kennedy’s Secret Service Agents, the Single Bullet Theory will finally be put to rest. A big thank you to The 6th Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza and WFAA TV Collection. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Who was Lee Harvey Oswald? We dig deep into Oswald’s story. Starting with his childhood, talking directly to people who knew him, we explore his time in the military and his curious defection to the Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War. Was he just a disgruntled ex-Marine, a lone wolf who wanted to take down a president? Or was he part of something bigger?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What did Oswald mean when he uttered the now-famous words “I’m just a Patsy!”, just hours before he was murdered? To begin to understand what those words mean, we step into the ‘Wilderness of Mirrors’ to see the world of counterintelligence through the eyes of James Jesus Angleton – a man known as “The Poet Spy.” In the Wilderness, confusion is a key weapon. We’ll trace Oswald’s steps from his return from the Soviet Union to his activities in New Orleans in the summer of 1963. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Who is Richard Case Nagell, and why did he mysteriously rob a bank two months before President Kennedy was assassinated? We’ll continue to follow Oswald’s movements, including how he got a job in a building that overlooked the President’s motorcade route. We’ll discuss a CIA plan that might be the smoking gun. The plan that exposes the conspiracy: Operation Northwoods.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Who had the motive? We explore the three groups who had both motive and means to assassinate Kennedy: the Mafia, the Cuban Exiles, and the intelligence community. And we uncover the unexpected ways they were working together. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We revisit November 22nd, 1963, through the eyes of Lee Harvey Oswald. Through expert testimony and first-hand witnesses, we follow Oswald, starting with his strange behavior the evening prior to the shooting and ending with his famous declaration – “I’m just a patsy.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Who was Jack Ruby? And why did this nightclub owner and low-level mobster murder Lee Harvey Oswald? We look at the strange treatment of Oswald while in custody and the reactions to Kennedy’s death from leaders around the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Finally, who killed JFK? Rob and Dick walk Soledad through their theory of who killed President John F. Kennedy. They name the shooters, their locations, and who was behind the tragic, world-changing event.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
An extended discussion with Jefferson Morley about the thousands of documents the US Government is still keeping hidden from the public. We discuss why these documents are still being protected 60 years later, what information may be in these documents, and what hope we have, if any, of the authorities releasing these materials.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Secret Service Agent Paul Landis, who was riding in the car behind the President when he was murdered, joins us to talk about his memories of that fateful day. After years of silence, Paul opens up about the assassination, sharing details that may forever change our understanding of what happened on November 22nd, 1963.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Soledad O’Brien shares the first episode of her true crime podcast MURDER ON THE TOWPATH – you won’t want to miss this troubling cold case involving one of JFK’s mistresses. It was a baffling mystery. A socialite and artist with powerful connections was murdered on her daily walk in a posh DC neighborhood. Nobody knew what to make of Mary Pinchot Meyer’s murder. A Black man named Raymond Crump Jr. soon became the suspect – and in 1964, that was bound to capture everyone’s attention. But was he Mary’s killer or a scapegoat?

Is it any wonder that Americans have such a level of distrust in their government? This podcast gives a very good reason why that distrust exists.
awesome subject matter, to bad the rich creators of this podcast are more interested in making sure each episode is loaded and bogged down with commercials. The creators say they are so interested in who killed JFK but only if they are making huge sums of advertising dollars 💵 💰. Really gets annoying
over produced nothing burger...
Curious about Lyndon Johnson's involvement. He kept engagement in Vietnam, was a good ole boy with lots of support and connections in Dallas, but was in harms way being in the motorcade.

You def did a good job with running all that ad. The whole series can be compressed into 2 to maximum 3 episodes. Read news articles on this and save yourselves the valuable time.
Loved the series, most of which I knew already but highly recommend for people trying to make sense of this mystery. Would have been beneficial to explore Oswald’s time in New Orleans a little more closely. I would like this team to investigate Judith Vary Baker’s account of Oswald during this time period, meaning separating truth from hearsay. If 1/10th of what she claims is true, we have a story here.
Too many friggin commercials
What sources were used to name the alleged 4 shooters?
Each episode is a string of admitted suspicions, hearsay, and conjecture that ends in "so that PROVES XYZ." Skimpy evidence and extremely loose connections amid normal procedures don't prove anything. Could Meathead's conclusion be accurate? It's possible. Could it be partially right and wrong? Probably. Could it be completely off? Yep. Did someone else kill Kennedy? We don't know. We might learn more as contemporary documented evidence is released. And we might not. Life's like that sometimes.
They could've got through this in an hour without all the padding. Intriguing story poorly presented

I have been to where JFK was shot and stood where Lee was standing during the shooting. There was no way he could've fired all the shots. The government has sealed evidence in this case that they refuse to let the public see. It was sealed for 50 years and then resealed 10 years ago for another 50. If they're not hiding anything why would they seal any evidence?
God bless, I had no idea so many witnesses were accident prone or suicidal.
