JFK Files
JFK FILES
close

On November 22nd 1963 JFK was assassinated. Two days later the alleged assassin Lee Harvey Oswald was gunned down while in Police custody by Night club owner Jack Ruby. And for past 60 plus years - many have speculated the assassin did not work alone. There were congressional hearings, FBI and CIA investigations and all of that lead to documents that were sometimes released after being heavily redacted or never released at all. Information kept from the American People - These are the JFK Files. In President Trumps first term he said he would release all of the files - but then he changed course claiming QUOTE the potential harm to U.S. national security, law enforcement or foreign affairs is of such gravity that it outweighs the public interest in immediate disclosure. Unquote At the beginning of President Trumps second term he signed an executive order to release all of the JFK Files. This podcast will go over what is in these soon to be released files. Will these files just confirm the original story - a lone gunmen - or will it completely change the way we look at some 3 letter agencies, a past President, the Mob, a Foreign Government or some combination there of. How would releasing these files 5 years ago cause harm to US National security - but today it would not? We will include your feedback and thoughts on what is found in these soon to be released files. I am rob from Podcast411 and I want you to send your feedback to [email protected] - or give us a call 206-666-4357 - that is 206 MOM HELP

Island
ISLAND
close

The first three hundred years of colonization of Manhattan Island and its resounding impact on our culture and our world. Created and hosted by actor, writer, and New Yorker Chance Kelly, the series illustrates how this place is an island unto itself, not just geographically, but idealistically, philosophically and spiritually. Island uncovers our true lost American History. It examines the city's effect on religious and personal freedoms throughout the world. Chance's own heritage is central to much of this story directly as his great, great, great uncle Honest John Kelly, himself emerged from the slums of Five Points to become one of the first Irish-Catholic Congressmen in 1856, and would later reform the reeling Tammany Hall in the wake of the Boss Tweed era. John Kelly was a fiercely courageous advocate for oppressed immigrants from everywhere. Island is the character-driven portrait of the inimitable souls responsible for a place founded on capitalism but perpetuated on an infectious and unapologetic measure of tolerance. Our narrative begins in 1609 when Henry Hudson happens upon Manhattan and the river that would come to bear his name, and culminates in 1909 when Western interloper William Randolph Hearst has infiltrated New York publishing and the fistfight that is Manhattan politics. Climb aboard this voyage of discovery as we tell the epic story, over three centuries, of the forging of the epicenter of the universe. Researched, written and produced by Chance Kelly and Dr. Jaap Jacobs. Research Associate James Edward Malin. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
