This week on Pop Therapy, I unpack the questions still troubling me about Lindsay Clancy, Reddington's moves and intentions for the next imminent court date, and the online debates surrounding this deeply complex case. I also discuss the disturbing allegations against Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann's son, KJ, and the family fallout playing out publicly.Then, we're back in Bravo territory: Real Housewives of New York, Jessel Taank testing my patience and the OG Housewives reminding us why we fell in love with this world in the first place.

Listen to the rest of this premium episode by subscribing at patreon.com/knowyourenemy.A sundowning, octogenarian president radically out of step with the country's mood, surrounded by Yes Men (and Women), cowards, and idiots, whose administration and party are plunging in popularity as war rages on: it's deja vu all over again, this time expressed through the pathological personage that is Donald Trump. As his second term fails and his attacks on the very foundations of effective government becoming ever-more apparent, the morbid symptoms are piling up—Trump's fantastical retreat into building projects, his posting through the A.I. revolution, ongoing obsession with JFK and the Kennedys, and more—we take stock and discuss the perils of this moment, as people who believe in nothing surround a president who knows nothing, and the situation gets desperate.Listen again: "The Kennedy Imprisonment" (w/ Jeet Heer), Nov 17, 2023Sources:"Trump Renames A.I. and Threatens to 'Annihilate' Iran in U.N.

This is a side of Tom Doyle that very few people know. A fan-favorite Blurry Creatures guest, Tom is known for his accounts of Muslim dreams about Jesus and more than thirty years on the mission field in the Middle East. What people do not know is how he grew up. His father was an FBI agent and organized-crime specialist in Rat Pack Las Vegas, and one morning he stands at the Marilyn Monroe crime scene as the world wakes up to the headline. He sees who shows up, and it is someone far above a governor. J. Edgar Hoover calls the house personally. Frank Sinatra sends the family a gold watch. This is not the usual Blurry Creatures episode, and that is exactly the point. For one night Tom sets the supernatural aside and cracks open his own family's government files. What spills out is a front-row seat to the biggest conspiracies in American history. Marilyn Monroe and the phone calls to the White House. The Kennedys in Las Vegas the weekend before Dallas. Frankie Sinatra's kidnapping and the watch Tom still owns. Roswell, from a man who knew the people who were there. Josh and Tommy Doyle (Tom's sons) from No Longer Nomads pull up to the table as the Doyle family tells stories they almost never tell in public. And it all bends toward one unlikely ending, how a kid raised around guns and secrets grows up to smuggle Bibles into Iran.

We're recapping episode two of The Real Housewives of New York, and Erin Lichy may need to learn one very important lesson: stop talking sh*t if you don't want it getting back to people. We get into Erin's latest drama, the very awkward brunch with Carole Radziwill that took an uncomfortable turn when the conversation shifted to the Kennedys, and whether Jessel took things way too far. Plus, we're talking Daisy's marriage after an inappropriate text message from her son's tutor raises some serious questions. Was it completely out of line, and is there actually trouble in Daisy's marriage? We break down all the drama, the uncomfortable moments, and everything that had us talking from RHONY episode two.

Photo: Bill Hill, an independent candidate for Alaska’s at-large U.S. House seat, stops to pose for a photo at a fundraiser on August 19, 2026. (Rhonda McBride / KNBA) Two Alaska Natives are among the leading candidates for Congress. Former U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola (Yup’ik) leads the U.S. Senate race, while Bill Hill (Athabascan) is emerging as a contender for the state’s at-least U.S. House seat, as Rhonda McBride from our flagship station KNBA reports. Despite the commanding 12-point leader in the primary by U.S. Rep. Nick Begich, R-Alaska, Bill Hill, who ran as an independent, is looking to Democrats for support. And many of them packed a fundraiser just after the primary to put on Bill Hill buttons. He is also heartened by Peltola's strong showing in the primary with almost 50% of the vote. “We energize the same pool of voters.” Hill, like Peltola, is from rural Alaska. He grew up in Bristol Bay, became a school superintendent, and, during the summer, worked as a commercial fisherman. Hill says he and Mary Peltola share more than just their Native heritage. “We both are heavily invested with fish as a core part of our identity. We're heavily invested in family as a core part of our identity.” Democratic political consultant Jim Lottsfeldt says Hill might have fared better running as a Democrat and there is no guarantee Peltola's popularity will translate into votes for Hill. “I don't really put a lot into the coat tails argument, which is, ‘I know Mary, I like Mary, and now I'm going to vote for every Native.’ I don't think we work that way.” Lottsfeldt also says Alaska Native voters connect to the Begich name. “I mean the Begiches are sort of the Kennedys of Alaska.” Begich is named after his grandfather, who also served in the U.S. House. His uncle Mark Begich served one term in the Senate and another uncle, Tom Begich, ran for governor in the primary. But Hill started out this race as a political unknown. “We started this in January with no name recognition. The fact that we earned 40,000-plus votes from Alaskan voters, really shows that our message is carrying well and we feel very confident that we can carry this across the finish line.” Hill has since picked up an endorsement from the Alaska Democratic Party, signs this race could be a lot closer than the primary results suggested. TSMC Fab 21 data center under construction in Phoenix, Ariz., November 2023. (Photo: Hunter Trick / Wikimedia) Municipalities across Arizona are raising concern over the rapid rise of data centers, especially when it comes to water consumption in the drought-stricken Southwest. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, a tribe bordering the Colorado River has enacted a moratorium on its reservation. The Hualapai Tribal Council in northern Arizona recently passed a resolution opposing “the irresponsible development of hyperscale data centers.” Such facilities powering AI, they say, pose “a direct and severe threat to the tribe's sacred water, lands, environment and way of life.” “Moving forward, we will always protect our air, we will always protect our land, and we will always protect our water.” That is Hualapai Chairman Duane Clarke. “Hualapai Tribe will stand strong with any community, and we will oppose these data centers.” Some neighbors in nearby Bullhead City, Ariz., which also sits along the Colorado River, are now concerned about rezoning proposals that could lead to data center development. Deed in Trust from Three of the Five Nations of Indians to the King, 1726. (Courtesy Tribal Treaties Database / Oklahoma State University) On this day in 1726, representatives of the Cayuga, Onondaga, and Seneca Nations entered into an agreement with British officials in Albany, N.Y. The agreement amended an earlier 1701 treaty involving Native lands and became one of the earliest Native treaties preserved in the National Archives.

In the final chapter of Marilyn Month, we're covering the last years of Marilyn Monroe's life and the mystery that still surrounds her death more than 60 years later. From her divorce from Arthur Miller and buying a home of her own, to her rumored relationships with the Kennedys and the infamous “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” performance at Madison Square Garden. We're also getting into Marilyn's final photo shoots, her last days, and what we know about the night she died. Then, we're breaking down the conspiracy theories that have followed her death for decades: the Kennedys, the conflicting timelines, the unanswered questions, and what we actually believe happened.

Who are the Kennedys, really? And what has made the legacy of America's political dynasty so famous, divisive and enduring? The Kennedys are often described as the closest thing the United States has to a royal family, with fiercely competitive and divisive figures taking up space in American political and public life for generations.Even now, the influence of the Kennedy family continues to persist with RFK Junior, who is serving as the U.S. secretary of health and human services.There have been Kennedys who thrived with fame and power, and those who struggled greatly with that burden, with tragic consequences.The sunniest images of this famous family come from when they gathered at their rambling seaside compound in Cape Cod in the summers.One particular summer, in 1944, changed everything for the Kennedy clan, according to historian Leigh Straw, who is an internationally recognised expert on the Kennedy family and their legacy.It was the final year of World War Two—Jack, the future president, had become a war hero but his health was ailing; his brothers Bobby and Teddy were there, but their eldest brother Joe Junior was in England, preparing to embark on his final wartime mission. Their sister Rosemary was out of the picture altogether, hidden away from public and never spoken of.This was the year, Leigh says, when personal tragedies and public heroics began to shape the Kennedy legacy.The Kennedys at Cape Cod, 1944: The Summer That Changed Everything is published by Bloomsbury.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggiei Morris.

This week we close out our Kilgallen series with the questions the first three were building toward: who killed her, and where did her JFK file go.

This week's themed EMQs is all about America. Ed Balls and George Osborne reflect on their memories of the US from the Founding Fathers right through to Trump. They first consider whether the MAGA worldview is baked into American politics, particularly on an international level, and will affect things like NATO for decades to come.Amol Rajan, from the Today Programme, then poses an idea for Andy Burnham to borrow from the sitting President: Trump Accounts. This harkens back to New Labour's child trust funds, which George cut whilst chancellor. Could this idea work again in Britain? Or was there a reason it was disbanded under Cameron.Finally, they delve into the What If realm: who is the best President there never was? From the Kennedys, to Gore, to Hamilton, the pair reflect on the people who could have made the best impact in the White House. They also reflect on which previous Democratic President would have had the best chance of beating Trump in an election.We love hearing from you, so please don't forget to send all your EMQs to questions@politicalcurrency and make sure to include a voice note of your question or send a question to our social media handles:

Article at Kennedys and King Read Here Aguilar’s letter to the Federal Bar News and Journal criticizing Posner.View Here Aguilar’s book review of Bugliosi’s Reclaiming History, as published in The Federal Lawyer.View Here Transcript of Bugliosi’s reply to Aguilar (originally handwritten). View Here Background to the many lies of the corrupt J. Edgar Hoover The Warren Commison was depending on the FBI for investigation The Warren Commission had no criminal investigators. It was completely dependent on the FBI The notoriously corrupt chief, J. Edgar Hoover, announced Oswald guilt before starting the investigation. Hoover “file checked” the Commission and the staff for “derogatory information” Hoover had Gerald Ford secretly spy on the Commissioners The conclusion was set at the outset Anthony Lewis said all the evidence had been released by the Commission In 1964 The New York Times’s Anthony Lewis reported that the Warren Commission released all the evidence it had collected. 30 years later the ARRB discovered that more than 3000 Commission documents were still being withheld.†Gary wrote to the journal “The Federal Lawyer” the official, peer-reviewed journal of the U.S. Justice Dept Media reviewers are almost always ignorant of the facts of the case Lance DeHaven-Smith The CIA had to make up the term Conspiracy Theorists Carl Bernstein reported Church Committee had evidence that the CIA had over 400 assets in major American Media Neutron activation analysis is a scientific technique that was used to try to link JFK’s bullet fragments to Oswald’s rifle. It doesn’t work. Gary and Cyril Wecht explained in the journal, “The Federal Lawyer,” and elsewhere, that NAA couldn’t provably match the bullet fragments taken from JFK’s autopsy with Oswald’s rifle, and that Vincent Bugliosi misrepresented the NAA science. Charles Crenshaw, MD, a Parkland Hospital witness, an AMA member and Warren critic, sued the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) for libel for falsely reporting Crenshaw’s claims in his book, “JFK – Conspiracy of Silence,” was bogus because he never saw JFK. Crenshaw was there; JAMA lost the suit, and it paid Crenshaw $215,000.00, plus court costs.

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! Few American families have captured the public imagination quite like the Kennedys. From politics and presidential power to tragedy, celebrity and scandal, the Kennedy name has been woven into the fabric of American history for generations. But how did the family become so influential—and does the Kennedy name still carry the same weight today? In this episode, we explore the history, mythology and enduring influence of the Kennedy family with Dr. John Hellmann, author of The Kennedy Obsession, and Preston Thompson, the longtime former host of The Georgia Politics Podcast, who makes his grand return to the show to discuss one of his favorite subjects: the Kennedys. We look at why Americans became so fascinated with the Kennedys, how the family's influence evolved over the decades, and whether the Kennedy name still opens doors in American politics today. It's a conversation about power, legacy, celebrity and the enduring obsession with one of America's most famous political families. Connect with The Georgia Politics Podcast, HERE.

This week, Hannah and Barbi kick things off with another round of Mom's famous "Karen moments"... though she'd tell you she's not being a Karen at all. She's just trying to be helpful.Hannah also shares a few new "Work Wowies," proving once again that no two days on the job are ever the same. From there, the conversation takes a fascinating turn through history as they dive into the incredible stories of Alexander Selkirk, President George H. W. Bush's remarkable experience as a young naval aviator during World War II, and the life of JFK's lesser-known older brother, Joe Kennedy.To wrap things up, Hannah and Barbi dream a little, talking about where they'd choose to live if they could settle anywhere in the United States. Would it be the mountains, the beach, a small town, or somewhere completely unexpected? Now they want to know... where would you choose?It's an episode full of laughs, fascinating history, and the kind of conversations that make us wish you were sitting right here with us.
From the publisher: "For nearly a century, two families an ocean apart have captured the world's collective imagination: the British Windsors and the American Kennedys. Much ink has been spilled on their individual trysts, tragedies, and triumphs over the years, but no one has examined their powerful and intertwined legacies. Until now.In The Kennedys and the Windsors, acclaimed journalist Caroline Hallemann unearths the story of two iconic families whose lives, ambitions, and respective reigns have mirrored each other in surprising ways. Through rich archival research and fresh interviews from insiders on both sides of the Atlantic, Hallemann reveals how an upstart Irish Catholic family with little access into elite New England society came to host dinner parties for a King and Queen, and forge an eventual path to the White House. In the process, she draws out some startling parallels between the two families: the style icons Princess Diana and Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy (both tragically gone too soon), the frustrated “second sisters” Princess Margaret and Lee Radziwill, the scandal-plagued next generation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the man formerly known as Prince Andrew, and the current generation's shared struggle to figure out what a monarchy (actual or imagined) means in the twenty-first century.From Queen Elizabeth's coronation to President Kennedy's historic London visit, from JFK Jr.'s shocking death to Prince Harry's decisive break with his family, Hallemann traces the key moments in the lives of these two dynasties through a fresh and fascinating lens, showing how they have intersected over the generations in ways that not only shaped their images and legacies, but history itself."Caroline Hallemann's website can be found at: https://carolinehallemann.com/Information on her book can be found at https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/743272/the-kennedys-and-the-windsors-by-caroline-hallemann/AxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory
In this episode, Walter and "Spaced Out Radio" host Dave Scott predict that undeniable alien disclosure is coming in exactly six years thanks to new commercial satellite technology. They explore the strange pre-abduction "trigger warnings" that experiencers receive—ranging from hearing Pink Floyd songs in their heads to spotting blue butterflies—and discuss why the public is tired of the government trying to rebrand UFOs as boring "UAPs".The mysteries don't stop at the stratosphere. Walter unpacks the endless conspiracy theories surrounding Marilyn Monroe's tragic death, questioning the involvement of gangsters, Frank Sinatra, and the Kennedys, fueled by the news of Dakota Johnson portraying the icon in a new short film.
On the night of October 30th, 1975, 15-year-old Martha Moxley was beaten to death with a golf club in the wealthy Connecticut town of Greenwich.On the night of October 30th, 1975, 15-year-old Martha Moxley was beaten to death with a golf club in the wealthy Connecticut town of Greenwich. Her body was found the next morning under a pine tree in her own yard, the broken club nearby traced back to a set owned by her neighbors, the Skakels, a family related by marriage to the Kennedys. Despite the obvious lead, the case went cold for decades. Witnesses changed their stories, evidence was lost, and the family at the center of the investigation continued to live their lives. It took 25 years, a true crime book, and a tenacious investigator to finally bring charges. Even then, the conviction that followed would eventually be overturned, leaving the case in legal limbo. In this episode of Murder: True Crime Stories, host Carter Roy revisits one of the most notorious cold cases in American history, the wealth and influence that shielded a family from scrutiny, and the question that still divides Greenwich today: who really killed Martha Moxley?Head over to our Murder True Crime Stories YouTube channel to WATCH our video episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@MurderTrueCrimeStoriesIf you're new here, don't forget to follow Murder: True Crime Stories to never miss a case!

In Oklahoma, the Edmondson family was royalty. For decades, the Edmondson name had been synonymous with public service, integrity, and leadership. Some people even called them "the Kennedys of Oklahoma." It was because, generation after generation, they answered the call to serve. Sarah's grandfather served in the United States Congress. Her great-uncle was both the governor of Oklahoma and, later, a U.S. senator. Her uncle served as the state's attorney general. And her father, Jim Edmondson, would become a justice on the Oklahoma Supreme Court. Their reputation had been built on a deep commitment to the people of Oklahoma. The Edmondsons weren't known for scandal. And then came Sarah. Join Jen and Cam as we discuss ‘From Fiction to Fatal: William Savage & Patsy Byers.' Shout out to Jason P, who suggested the episode!

Annette O'Toole, the acclaimed actress best known for playing Hope McCrea on Netflix's hit series Virgin River and Martha Kent on Smallville, joins us for this inspiring replay conversation about her remarkable career, aging in Hollywood, marriage, motherhood, and finding lasting success in an ever-changing entertainment industry. Fans of Annette O'Toole will enjoy hearing behind-the-scenes stories from some of her most memorable projects, including Smallville, Rose Kennedy, The Kennedys of Massachusetts, Cross My Heart with Martin Short, Copacabana, Vanities, and her acclaimed collaborations with filmmaker Christopher Guest. She also explains why she chose to leave Smallville after six seasons despite the show's success, sharing how family priorities, long commutes between Vancouver and Los Angeles, and a desire to return to theater shaped that decision. Annette also opens up about her enduring marriage to Emmy-winning actor, writer, and musician Michael McKean. She shares the touching story of how their friendship became a lifelong love story, how they co-wrote the Oscar-nominated song "A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow" for Christopher Guest's A Mighty Wind, and why their shared love of acting, music, books, and creativity continues to strengthen their relationship. She also reflects on McKean's memorable Celebrity Jeopardy! championship and why spending time together has become even more meaningful as they've grown older. The episode explores the realities of a long career in Hollywood, including the iconic roles Annette narrowly missed in Body Heat and Terms of Endearment. Rather than dwelling on disappointment, she explains how every missed opportunity ultimately led to another meaningful role, reinforcing her belief that resilience, gratitude, and adaptability are the keys to career longevity. One of the most inspiring parts of this interview focuses on healthy aging, women aging in Hollywood, and embracing authenticity. Annette speaks candidly about rejecting Hollywood's pressure to stay forever young, embracing her gray hair, choosing not to pursue cosmetic surgery, and discovering the confidence to speak her mind after years of trying to please others. She also shares how daily walking, nutrition, and exercise have helped her naturally manage osteoporosis while feeling healthier, stronger, and more energized than ever in her 70s.

Professor William Taubman, guest author, describes how McNamara's loyalty to LBJ even extended to acting as a political spy, reporting on the Kennedys' private intentions during the 1964 election to soothe the president's insecurities. Meanwhile, he maintained a loving relationship with Jackie Kennedy, who viewed him as a father figure for her children while simultaneously pounding on his chest and begging him to "end the slaughter" in Vietnam. This dual existence saw him serve as the architect of the war by day while sharing anti-war sentiments with Jackie in private. McNamara at War: A New History (6)1967

Few families have inspired as much fascination as the Kennedys and Britain's royal family. Journalist Caroline Hallemann has spent years covering both as Digital Director of 'Town & Country,' and in her first book, 'The Kennedys and the Windsors: The Story of Two Dynasties, One Born, One Made,' she brings their histories together in a fresh and revealing way.Drawing on extensive archival research and interviews, Hallemann traces nearly a century of connections, rivalries, tragedies, and public mythmaking, showing how America's closest thing to royalty and Britain's actual monarchy have reflected, influenced, and reshaped one another across generations.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: December 06, 2021Weird Darkness moves through four shades of the unexplained in this episode: the unseen voices and strangers that talk people out of crimes and catastrophes, the demon that lived under two sisters' bed in Texas, the 1928 witch-killing that gave a Pennsylvania hollow its name, and the still-contested death of Marilyn Monroe.It opens with a run of first-person accounts pulled from Reddit, each describing the moment something unseen stepped in to stop a crime or a catastrophe. A burglar hiding in the closet of an elderly woman's house watches a ghostly old man pat a departing paramedic on the back, then feels breath on the neck and a voice ordering the intruder out. Middle-schoolers creeping through their darkened school are warned off by a voice none of them claims, and they avoid a library that proved to be wired with a silent alarm and motion detectors. In California, a fourteen-year-old abandons a car-theft job a mile from the pickup, spooked by a rising sense of dread, and later learns the vehicle was bait in a police sting that swept up everyone else sent after it. A pickpocket lifts a wallet clean off a stranger, only for the man — blind, sunglasses raised — to calmly ask for it back. Threaded among them are a blown tire that derails a despairing teenager's suicide plan, church doors that lock the instant two thieves reach for them, and a Hobby Lobby shopper whose five stolen pieces of balsa wood seem to trail straight to a table saw and a flesh-eating MRSA infection.From there the episode turns to a listener named Atreada, who shared a room and a bed with her older sister in SunRay, Texas. For a week the bed shook hard enough to slam against the wall and wake the whole house, blamed each night on two children supposedly roughhousing. On the fourth night a hand rose from the gap between bed and wall as an evil laugh filled the room, and on the last night the sisters aimed a flashlight and saw the thing climb out and bolt — an old man in rags, barefoot, with glowing eyes, talon-like fingers, broken teeth, ears jutting at odd angles, and thin transparent strands hanging from an otherwise bald, corpse-like head.Next comes the true story behind Spring Valley County Park in York County, Pennsylvania, a place once called Hex Hollow. In 1928 a Powwow folk-magic practitioner named John Blymire became convinced he was cursed, and a witch called Nellie Noll — the Marietta River Witch — named Nelson Rehmeyer as the source. To break the hex, Blymire needed a lock of Rehmeyer's hair and his copy of The Long Lost Friend, an 1820 spellbook by John George Hohman. On November 26, 1928, Blymire and two accomplices, John Curry and Wilbert Hess, beat Rehmeyer to death in his home and tried to burn it down; the house refused to burn, which locals took as proof of his power. Blymire and Curry drew life sentences and Hess ten to twenty years, and the surviving hex house opened as a museum in 2007 — its story helping to inspire horror novelist Brian Keene and Shane Free's 2015 documentary on the killing.The episode closes with the death of Marilyn Monroe, found nude and lifeless in her Brentwood home in the early hours of August 5, 1962, a telephone in her hand and empty pill bottles on the nightstand. The official verdict was probable suicide by barbiturate overdose, but Sergeant Jack Clemmons, the first officer on the scene, found no glass or water for swallowing some sixty pills, no vomit, and housekeeper Eunice Murray running laundry while the body lay cooling. Thomas Noguchi's autopsy turned up lethal levels of Nembutal and chloral hydrate in her blood and liver, yet not a trace in her stomach. Witnesses placed Attorney General Robert Kennedy at the house that day and again near 10 p.m., tied to rumors of a red diary detailing her affairs with Robert and President John F. Kennedy and referencing a plot against Castro. A competing account, advanced years later by a Court TV investigation, holds that her psychiatrist Ralph Greenson gave her a chloral hydrate enema to wean her off Nembutal, unaware that her internist Hyman Engelberg was still prescribing it, and that the fatal drug interaction — not the Kennedys, and not her own hand — is what killed her.

This week, we bring in our sports guy Jeff Grayson along with professional opera singer Mark Schowalter to celebrate the "Voice of the Century," Mr. Frank Sinatra. We start by hearing the moving story of how Jeff first truly discovered Sinatra's music through a stack of cassettes during his father's final days. Mark provides a professional's perspective on what made Sinatra a singular talent, focusing on his incredible storytelling ability, his vocal technique, and his mastery of the microphone. The conversation dives deep into the legendary stories that defined the man, including his generosity with blank checks, his infamous temper, and his rumored mafia ties. We also explore his complicated relationship with the Kennedys, his high praise for Tony Bennett, and the hilarious dynamic he shared with Don Rickles. Along the way, we discuss his career longevity, his work with greats like Nelson Riddle and Tommy Dorsey, and much, much more! Enjoy!

“He didn't just say it, he meant it, he felt it — and the combination of the power guy, the ruthless power guy, and the profound idealist was fascinating, and also hard for him.” — Evan Thomas on Bobby Kennedy Who was the greatest riddle in 20th century American political life? Judging from the ever-expanding library of Bobby biographies, Robert Francis Kennedy ranks very high on that list. Indeed, according to Evan Thomas, one of RFK's most acclaimed biographers, this third Kennedy son is, indeed, the most sphinx-like riddle in 20th century America. In his classic 2000 biography, Robert Kennedy: His Life, Thomas unravels the good and the bad Bobby. But, rather than presenting parallel narratives, his portrait treats the Machiavellian and the idealist as the same riddle. Raised by his father to exercise raw power, RFK discovered that mid-century America wasn't living up to its own ideals. The contradiction of the ruthless Kennedy machine politician and the profound idealist was what continues to make him so intriguing to Americans of every political stripe. Bobby concurred with Churchill's dictum that courage is the greatest virtue because, without it, you can't have the other virtues. So he lived a life of ridiculous physical and moral courage — taking insane risks that would terrify ordinary mortals. And, of course, his most insanely courageous act was his last — running for President in 1968 knowing that he was likely to be assassinated. Where have you gone, Bobby Kennedy? A nation turns its lonely eyes to you. Five Takeaways • The Central Paradox: Power Guy and Idealist in the Same Man: Bobby Kennedy was raised by his father to be the henchman of the Kennedy machine — doing the dirty stuff in Boston politics to keep Jack floating free and grand. He was pretty ruthless about it. At the same time, in mid-century America, he discovered that the country was not living up to its own constitution, and he wanted to make things right, and genuinely felt it. The combination of the machine politician and the profound idealist was what made him so endlessly fascinating. It also made him hard for himself: a man permanently at war with his own nature. • Courage: The Only Word That Mattered: No word was more important to Bobby Kennedy than courage. Churchill: it's the greatest virtue, because without it you can't have the others. Kennedy believed in physical courage, emotional courage, mental courage. He was a runty little kid at the wrong end of the dinner table — Jack and Joe and Kick at the golden end with the father, Bobby with the nuns and the mum. He got kicked out of prep school for cheating. He was not the athlete, not the golden one. Real courage comes from suffering. It took courage just to overcome being the loser. That was the source. • Making Up for Missing the War: Physical and Moral Courage: Bobby missed World War Two, basically. He got in at the very end and ended up scraping the deck of a destroyer in the Caribbean, far from combat. His brother Jack is a war hero on steroids — PT boat cut in half by a Japanese destroyer, rescues his men, written about in The New Yorker and Reader's Digest. Joe volunteers for a secret dangerous mission to replicate Jack's glory and dies. Pretty high bar of courage. Bobby spends the rest of his life making up for it — swimming the Colorado River, climbing Mount Kennedy in the Yukon, jumping overboard off the coast of Maine to save Jack's jacket. Sometimes stunts. But increasingly, moral courage — which is the greater thing. • The Mob, Joe Kennedy, and the Beehive: When Bobby starts poking around in the mob as a Senate aide, J. Edgar Hoover is only too happy to point out: keep going here, you know where it's going to end up. With Joe Kennedy. Bobby's investigation of Giancana and Frank Sinatra starts grazing against his own father. Thomas's reading: whether conscious or unconscious, there is an element of rebellion. Bobby, appointed henchman, doing the dirty stuff for pop, resenting it, starts poking the beehive that might expose him. It never fully landed. But it started. And Hoover used it to blackmail the Kennedys. • The Ripple of Hope, and RFK Jr. as Tragedy: Bobby's trip to South Africa — apartheid everywhere, the freedom movement barely existing, everybody in prison. His speech: every time somebody does something brave or heroic, it causes a ripple, and that gives you hope. A young Margaret Marshall, later Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, was in the audience. He gave us hope where there was none. That is the ghost Andrew went looking for at Hickory Hill and didn't find. The contrast with RFK Jr. is, for Thomas, simply sad. Poignant. His own family has disavowed him. Caroline Kennedy made a broadcast accusing him of crimes. The idea of Robert Kennedy Jr. is tragic. About the Guest Evan Thomas is an American writer and historian. He was Washington bureau chief of Newsweek for ten years and a writer and editor there for thirty-three years. He is the author of ten books, including Robert Kennedy: His Life (Simon & Schuster, 2000), Being Nixon, Road to Surrender, and, with Walter Isaacson, The Wise Men. He has taught at Harvard and Princeton. His biography of Churchill is forthcoming from Simon & Schuster in December 2026.

Naked, clutching the telephone receiver, and with a stomach full of prescription meds, Marilyn Monroe was pronounced dead at 4:25am on the 5th of August 1962. Today, a century after her birth, the iconic “blonde bombshell” is still one of the most famous people who has ever lived. She epitomised Hollywood: the fame, the fortune, and the chaos. Rumours placed her in bed with two Kennedys – and under surveillance from the FBI and CIA.

The Washington Roundtable is off today, and will be back next week. In the meantime, enjoy an episode of The New Yorker's Critics at Large podcast about the FX series “Love Story,” which drops audiences into the lives of one of the most talked-about couples of the nineties: J.F.K., Jr., and the style icon Carolyn Bessette. The hosts Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz, who are staff writers and critics at The New Yorker, discuss how the show re-creates the look and fashion of the era in granular detail while reducing the relationship itself to a generic fairy tale. “Love Story” 's focus on style underscores how much the Kennedy legacy lives in aesthetics, which risks obscuring some of the darker chapters of its history. “It does seem like we have ever more efficiently stripped the Kennedys and their image, and their style, from any notions of political power,” Cunningham says. “The look of something and the sort of moral thrust of something are not always one to one working in parallel.”New episodes of “Critics at Large” drop every Thursday, wherever you get your podcasts.
