Podcast appearances and mentions of Oliver Stone

Continuing our Oliver Stone series, we turn to Platoon (1986), the film that established Stone as a superstar director and inaugurated the most celebrated phase of his career, revolving around the ghosts of the 1960s. Brett discusses the reception of Platoon in terms of the cultural politics of New Hollywood and of the Reagan era, and he considers the real reasons for the emergence of the Vietnam film at this time. He also takes a closer look at Hemdale, the sus production company behind this and Stone's previous effort, and he offers some personal reflections on the film's legacy. Thomas discusses the neo-shamanic, countercultural spirituality invested in the Willem Dafoe character and offers an analysis of the “two fathers” theme that would come to define Stone's work. If you enjoy Psyop Cinema, check out the Decoding Culture Foundation and Cultural Engineering Studies magazine - https://decoding-culture.com/magazine-home/https://twitter.com/CinemaPsyophttps://www.patreon.com/PsyopCinemahttp://psyop-cinema.com/https://linktr.ee/psyopcinemathomas-psyopcinema@protonmail.combrett-psyopcinema@protonmail.com

Una rubrica in cui esprimo la mia personalissima opinione su film che, pur non essendo necessariamente capolavori o film iconici, hanno lasciato qualcosa al pubblico.Il Cinema è fatto anche di film controversi e provocatori, capaci magari di aprire discussioni e dibattiti anche costruttivi.Pochi film hanno scatenato sentimenti contrastanti come il famigerato "Assassini nati" di Oliver Stone, nato come soggetto di Quentin Tarantino e poi trasformato in una delle poche pellicole degne di essere definite post moderne. Nel Bene e nel Male.

The 13th Annual Whistleblower Summit & Film Festival takes place July 30 to August 1, 2025, with hybrid events from July 27 to August 3. Join us as we celebrate those who speak truth to power and help build a more transparent, accountable world.Whistleblower FestivalFilm Link13th Annual Whistleblower Summit and Film FestivalJuly 30-August 1, 2025Washington, D.C.Fletcher Prouty was the real-life inspiration for “Man X”, unforgettably portrayed by Donald Sutherland in Oliver Stone's 1991 film “JFK”. At the time of the film's release, Prouty was a retired Air Force Colonel turned author and public speaker. Although not technically a whistleblower, Prouty had stories to tell of the hidden history of the Cold War - from its origins in postwar planning during WW2, to the rise of national security interests associated with the CIA in the 1950s, and through the controversies of the brief Kennedy administration. Utilizing Prouty's personal records, interviews, and historic archival materials, Fletcher Prouty's Cold War also features new interviews with Oliver Stone and Len Osanic describing Prouty's involvement with the “JFK” film and his influence in a wider community of interest.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Send us a textSPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY WILL DISTURB SOME LISTENERS.  Season 15's temporal pincer movement is inverted with this week's pairing to present its earlier film first. So, one week early, we present to you SCARFACE (1983) with returning guest Erik Van Der Wolf from the Blood & Popcorn podcast filling in for Jack who had a boat to catch.  After last week's meager showing with First Blood, we return to the blood-filled squib in full force in a movie whose violent reputation Erik disputes, taking a chainsaw to arguments by contemporary critics and noting the various cutaways and reaction shows in lieu of direct onscreen violence. He also makes a case that director Brian De Palma shows uncharacteristic restraint in camera flourishes. What's unrestrained— agreed then and now—is the profanity, clocked at 1.32/minute “f's” given, timed by some film nerd and diligently regurgitated by one of your chin beard hosts who watched the Blu-ray commentary.  Typically, we make a halfhearted attempt here in the show notes for a plot recap, but we all know the story of Scarface who's got his word and his balls. This 1980's remake marks a rare confluence of film and actual contemporary events as its Scarface, aka cocaine cowboy Tony Montana played by Al Pacino, is a Cuban refugee, mapping the original immigrant story of the 1932 movie onto real Florida violence. The film is also credited as giving Michelle Pfiefer her breakout role (if one discounts Grease II) in portraying coke whore arm candy. And actual Cuban immigrant and total hottie Steven Bauer plays Montana's bestie (and friend's sister-fucker) Manny Ray.   Blood packets explode during a hotel drug deal gone wrong and again when Montana promotes himself over his boss's dead body and then again when given cocaine super powers at the end of the film as Scarface holds off a mercenary army of hitmen, but surprising no squib explodes when Montana shoots Ray in a fit of rage for what could be interpreted as incestual cockblocking. But you knew the plot already.    Listen as adult boys who grew up in the VHS era (and Thomas) discuss a film that guest Erik loves and the others find a lesser entry in the De Palma 80s filmography. Guest Erik brings a reread of the Oliver Stone screenplay and filmic muscle memory to recite scenes from the formative flick; Ryan stays bullish on the original black and white gangster picture (and on the film Two of a Kind, the 1983 feature that reunited John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John after Grease I), mainly wishing the De Palma film was closer to the original film's runtime; Ken warms to the film and to Erik; and Thomas might have an opinion after his first watch but is more interested in the sequel videogame for the PS2 and prequel novels by comic book and erotic vampire author L.A. Banks.   Next week, Jack returns to discuss the school shooter film Elephant. THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

There's a lot to talk about this week in the world of physical media. Peter Sobczynski joins Erik Childress to talk about a Stanley Kubrick epic finally getting the release it deserves. Oliver Stone revisits a final cut for his own epic and there is also some epic destruction from the ‘70s. Denzel Washington looks for a serial killer, though not the one traipsing through the woods like he was Terrence Malick. They've got film noir with Glenn Ford, horror meeting blaxploitation and Peter offering his thoughts on Ryan Coogler's huge 2025 success. Finally the pair discuss Mike Nichols' now quaint adaptation of politics leading up to the Clinton years and Amy Heckerling's teen film from the ‘90s still entertaining generations decades later.2:30 - Criterion (The Big Heat (4K), Barry Lyndon (4K))21:23 – Shout Factory (Primary Colors (4K), Alexander Revisited: The Final Cut (4K), Abigail (4K))50:08 - Kino (Sugar Hill)55:37 - RJLE (In a Violent Nature (4K))1:04:59 - WB (The Little Things (4K))1:12:44 - Universal (Earthquake (4K))1:31:32 - Paramount (Clueless (4K))1:44:51 - New Theatrical & TV Titles On Blu-ray (Warfare (4K), Death of a Unicorn, The Amateur (4K), The Legend of Ochi, , Shadow Force, The Rule of Jenny Pen, Hell of a Summer, Until Dawn (4K), Sinners (4K), Fallout: Season One (4K), Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993-1997), See (The Complete Series))1:53:30 – New Blu-ray AnnouncementsCheck eligibilityCLICK ON THE FILMS TO RENT OR PURCHASE AND HELP OUT THE MOVIE MADNESS PODCASTBe sure to check outChicago Screening Schedule - All the films coming to theaters and streamingPhysical Media Schedule - Click & Buy upcoming titles for your library.(Direct purchases help the Movie Madness podcast with a few pennies.)Erik's Linktree - Where you can follow Erik and his work anywhere and everywhere.The Movie Madness Podcast has been recognized by Million Podcasts as one of the Top 100 Best Movie Review Podcasts as well as in the Top 60 Film Festival Podcasts and Top 100 Cinephile Podcasts.

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we sometimes talk about movie stars! We sometimes talk about movie directors! Today, we talk about both! Specifically, the B-Sides of the Mission: Impossible franchise. It's just Conor and I today folks, waxing poetic on Tom Cruise's legendary franchise and the B-Sides that we were inspired to discuss. We've chosen one for each of the Mission movies. It's also July 3rd on the day this episode is published, so happy 63rd birthday Tom Cruise! For the first Mission: Impossible, we speak on The Avengers from 1998. An adaptation of the popular British television series from the ‘60s, director Jeremiah S. Chechik's film was dismantled in post-production, slashed to ribbons following bad test screenings. The final product runs well under ninety minutes and is hard to understand. It sits on the other end of blockbusters in the ‘90s adapted from hit televisions from yesteryear. We also discuss the last five films Sean Connery made (animated film Sir Billi not included), as well as the ones he turned down. For Mission: Impossible II, we chose another John Woo American motion picture: Paycheck, starring Ben Affleck and The Avengers star Uma Thurman. This is a true B-Side, and the beginning of Affleck's now-infamous lost half-decade as a fledgling movie star. For Mission: Impossible III, we return to television inspiration. In honor of director J.J. Abrams, Conor and I go long on No Man's Land, one of the first produced screenwriting credits of Dick Wolf, who would go on to create the, ahem, Law & Order universe of shows. This Charlie Sheen/ D.B Sweeney vehicle walked so Point Break and The Fast and the Furious could run. There's chatter about David Ayer, that scene from Fire in the Sky, and how Charlie Sheen is always better when he plays the villain. For Ghost Protocol, we debate the Brad Bird B-Side Tomorrowland. We discuss libertarianism (for like two minutes) and the misbegotten message of the George Clooney blockbuster. For Rogue Nation we honor the Hitchcock homage of the opening and discuss one of Hitch's most underrated films: Topaz. Truly a can't-miss picture, which spurns a talk about the ideal Hitchcock leading man. For Fallout, there's Michael Mann's Blackhat. We appreciate the still underseen hacker epic, and make the claim that Chris Hemsworth is the best movie star of the original Avengers (Marvel this time, not British) not named Robert Downey Jr. For Dead Reckoning Part 1, Conor goes long on Hayao Miyazaki's Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro, from the little yellow car to the action to the animation. And, finally, for The Final Reckoning, we celebrate John Sturges' Ice Station Zebra. The second act of the final film in the series is a reimagining of sorts of the 1968 submarine epic, with way more stunts and underwater photography. There's also mention of the Billy Crystal 1997 Oscars opening, this lovely promo for the Albert Brooks movie Mother (ok it's not mentioned I just love it), and the Oliver Stone episode of the Light the Fuse podcast.

  Mr. X (Donald Sutherland) in the movie JFK by Oliver Stone was based off of the military career of Col. L. Fletcher Prouty. Prouty's military career started before Pearl Harbour, where he was assigned as a Horse Cavalryman. After horses were replaced with tanks in 1941, Prouty joined the Tank Corps under General Creighton Abrams. Abrams went on to be the Senior Military officer in Vietnam during the Vietnam War from 1968-1972. Already a licensed pilot in the Tank Corp, the Air Force recruited Prouty; he transferred quickly to flight school in Africa. Prouty served in the Africa Middle East wing of the Air Transport Command. Prouty being sent to the Cairo Conference in 1943 was the start of Prouty's career with clandestine operations. The Cairo Conference was attended by Churchill, Roosevelt & Chiang Kai-Shek from China. From there, Prouty was sent directly to the Tehran Conference between Churchill, Roosevelt & Stalin met for the 1st time. Why haven't historians been told that Chiang Kai-Shek was ALSO at the Tehran Conference? Prouty knows Chiang Kai-Shek attended the Tehran Conference because he was the pilot that flew him there. A friend of Prouty's was the pilot who flew Elliot Roosevelt to the same Tehran Conference in 1943. After the conferences Prouty was sent to Pacific, flying heavy transport, mostly patients to the hospital, until the war ended. The unit Prouty was flying in was asked to fly immediately into Japan once the war was over in August 1945. The only air base that the US hadn't bombed in anticipation of invading was the major underground Japanese base at Atsugi. The CIA utilized the Atsugi base, where men like Lee Harvey Oswald were later stationed. When Prouty flew back to Okinawa he noticed a huge stockpile of military equipment being loaded onto US ships. The Harbour Master told Prouty the equipment was being sent to Vietnam and Korea. Who had given the orders for the relocation of the military equipment? How early were plans made to invade Vietnam? Prouty was ordered by the Army to report to Yale University to help start a new aviation program. Prouty taught at Yale for three years before being sent to NY to write a text book on Aeronautics for the US Army. After publishing the first text book, Prouty was asked to write another book on rockets and missiles. Given full authority by the government to go anywhere, and interview anyone, Prouty interviewed Werner Von Braun. Von Braun explained to Prouty in 1949 how he would land a rocket on the moon. After helping to set up the NORAD operation in Colorado Springs, after a year Prouty was sent to Tokyo. While the US was an occupation force in Japan, the US military ran the country while Japan was rebuilt. Tokyo had been completely devastated. Prouty was installed as the airport manager for the International Tokyo Airport. Prouty had never seen anywhere as destroyed as Tokyo was by the end of the war. In the Korean war period, after the airport was given back to the Japanese, Prouty helped fly supplies to Lansdale. In 1952-1953 CIA's Edward G. Lansdale built up a covert army in the Philippines under the leadership of Ramon Magsaysay. President Quirino had been the leader of the Philippine government before Magsaysay was installed in 1953. In 1955 Prouty was sent back to US to attend the Armed Forces Staff College run by the Joints Chiefs of Staff. Prouty was then brought into the Pentagon. In 1955 under Eisenhower, CIA would get assistance and funds from military conduits to support their covert operations. In order to enable this plan, an office and system had to be created to handle this global operation. As Chief of Special Operations for the Air Force, Prouty was given the task of heading and creating the office and system. Lansdale was also in the Pentagon at this time, developing programs which later turned into the Special Forces.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into Oliver Stone's powerful 1989 biographical drama Born on the Fourth of July, starring Tom Cruise in a career-defining role as Vietnam veteran Ron Kovic. We explore how the film portrays Kovic's journey from idealistic youth and proud Marine to paralyzed anti-war activist, examining its raw depiction of trauma, disillusionment, and the cost of blind patriotism.Feel free to email at silverscreenvideopodcast@gmail.com with any comments or thoughts.

If the American dream died in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963, then who killed it? According to the crime novelist Terrence McCauley, the JFK assassination was carried out by organized crime. That's the heart of his new novel, Twilight Town, in which McCauley reexamines the JFK assassination in Dallas. But this wasn't Oliver Stone style CIA or shadowy government conspirators, pulling well-oiled strings from their deep state offices. Instead, McCauley argues it was something far more mundane yet chilling: a street-level contract hit executed by mob-connected criminals with intelligence ties. These were the same underworld figures who ran guns to Cuba, operated training camps for Bay of Pigs veterans, and had both the means and motive to eliminate a President they saw as soft on communism and hard on organized crime. In McCauley's vision, America's Camelot ended not through some grand operatic conspiracy, but through the banal efficiency of professional killers.1. The JFK Assassination Was a "Street Crime," Not a High-Level Government Plot "I approach it as the way I thought it was. And that is a contract hit and a street crime, which is ultimately what happened on the streets of Dallas that morning." McCauley argues the assassination was carried out by mob-connected criminals with intelligence ties, not CIA masterminds in smoke-filled rooms.2. Only a Small Group Knew the Full Plan "I think maybe 10 or 20 at the most who knew all the details and much fewer than that who knew exactly what was going to happen and when." McCauley believes the conspiracy was deliberately kept small, citing FBI recordings of Joseph Milteer who said such operations only work with minimal participants.3. Lee Harvey Oswald Didn't Pull the Trigger "I never was able to put a gun in Oswald's hands that day... I don't think he did. No, I think he was involved with the people who did." McCauley argues Oswald was connected to the plotters but wasn't the actual shooter, pointing to inconclusive gunpowder residue tests.4. The Assassination Marked "The End of American Innocence" "It was certainly the end of American innocence, where we thought we were always the good guys, where we were the liberators, and where we were one hope of the world against the ongoing threat of communism." McCauley sees November 22, 1963, as the moment America lost its post-WWII optimism.5. The Cover-Up Happened Because Intelligence Agencies Recognized Their Own Assets "The coverup happened because these organizations looked into it. They realized, well, so-and-so could have this off, and we worked with them for 10 years, let's back away from that." McCauley suggests the cover-up wasn't planned but emerged when agencies discovered their own connected operatives were involved.The American Dream has more lives than cats. It was supposed to have died in November 1963 in Dallas, then in 1968 with the assassinations of MLK and RFK, then in the Fall of Saigon, then at the Watergate Building, then at the Twin Towers on 9/11. And then, of course, there is Trump, who is supposed to have slain the American Dream not once but twice. And yet today, a couple of days before Independence Day, my sense is that the Dream is alive all over America. The promise of individual agency continues to inspire new generations of both native and immigrant Americans. JFK might be gone, but the Dream remains the defining quality of the American experience.

So who killed JFK? We still don't know, but we're concluding our series on DeLillo's conspiratorial history with Episode 27: Libra (3). This episode begins by focusing on the unexpected injection of humor and depth that comes with Jack Ruby, another reluctant shooter, in the novel's second part. We draw into this episode some comparisons of Libra to other artists' paranoid visions of conspiracy, including Oliver Stone, Norman Mailer, and Thomas Pynchon. We spend ample time on the newspaper-clipping and TV-watching of CIA wife Beryl Parmenter, one of several figures here who make Libra a canny narrative of media and information history. And we close with detailed debate and speculation about why DeLillo's concluding “Author's Note” – with its powerful notion that “readers may find refuge here” – has changed over the years. Like Nicholas Branch, we're overwhelmed by all that still could be said about Libra (and we may still say it in a future episode!), but we conclude our three-part analysis here. References and corrections for this episode: “Don DeLillo: The Word, the Image, and the Gun.” BBC Documentary, September 27, 1991. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DTePKA1wgc Sigmund Freud, “Mourning and Melancholia.” chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.sas.upenn.edu/~cavitch/pdf-library/Freud_MourningAndMelancholia.pdf JFK (dir.

  Topics: JFK Assassination Research / Luna Task Force The JFK Assassination Chokeholds: - That Prove There Was a Conspiracy JFK Assassination Chokeholds (@JFKChokeholds) / X Why Are We Still Declassifying JFK Records? Critical ARRB Final Determinations Buried and Ignored The Biden/CIA Attempt to Usurp Congress' Authority Over JFK Records Read Article Ex-Govt Employee Tells Congress JFK X-Rays 'Actually Reveal A Total Of 3 Headshots,' Records Missing Watch Doug Horne Testimony Video L'ASSASSINAT DE JFK L'IRREFUTABLE: Les preuves sans appel d'un complot: Pruchase Here The JFK Assassination Chokeholds: That Prove There Was a Conspiracy: Purchase Book Here Internal CIA memo regarding HSCA JFK files docid-32404131.pdf Read Here Len jumps right in to the interview, asking Andrew how he feels about the Luna Committee. Andrew is truly impressed so far! With the broad mandate, will investigators distract from the focus that is needed in the JFK assassination research? The Luna Task Force is the first government committee to investigate federal secrets since the ARRB disbanded in 1998. The RFK & MLK assassinations, 9/11, Epstein files etc. are all falling under the Luna Task Force. The Commission hearing on April 1st featured the spectacular panel with Oliver Stone, Jim DiEugenio & Jefferson Morley. Len reflects how in the past, people have had their hopes dashed with the controlled investigations of the HSCA, ARRB etc.. Sadly, the heads of these government committees believe that LHO was the lone assassin, no need to really investigate. Andrew explains that some people have been critical of the Luna Task Force to date. Andrew feels things could be worse. People are tired of the Lone Assassin cover story! JFK researchers and the American public, want the truth! A large portion of the public very is vocal and impatient while waiting for the release of the Epstein Files! On May 20, 2025 Doug Horne, who was the chief military analyst for the ARRB, testified about JFK’s autopsy evidence. Up until now, the American public had never seen a broadcast of this medical evidence; JFK had 3 head wounds. The Bethesda medical evidence from the autopsy was suppressed by the HSCA & the Warren Commission investigations. The primary witnesses who went in front of Congress include Abraham Bolden, Dan Hardway & Judge Tunheim. Doug Horne's testimony to the Luna Task Force has almost a million views on Forbes' Youtube channel. Len enjoyed how the Luna Task Force set out with a big punch, with Oliver Stone & Jim DiEugenio speaking first. The exposure of the Luna committee has helped change the national dialogue of the JFK assassination. Concerned citizens are taking the time to read through the documents in efforts to connect the dots. Andrew, a Canadian lawyer from Ontario, was thrilled to meet Oliver Stone, the Grand Daddy of current JFK investigators! With Oliver's bringing his star power to the hearing, and his demand for a new investigation, people's attention was captured. Combine Oliver's interview, with Doug Horne's sworn testimony about the medical evidence, the pressure is on. Oliver Stones' JFK movie was the catalyst to creating the majority of today's generation of JFK assassination researchers. Andrew has been interested in the Kennedy assassination for years, focusing in on the JFK Assassination Records Act. October 26, 2017 was the deadline for JFK records to be released. In 2017 CIA Director Mike Pompeo had influence over President Trump, stalling the release of the JFK files until 2015. Once there was interference from Pompeo and stalling of the JFK files release, Andrew drilled down on the law, researching. Mark and Adam discovered many of the provisions in the JFK Records Act had not been complied with. This lead to Andrew helping to draft a law suit with Mark Adamcyzk against President Biden to have the records released...

 The Journey 180. The Privileged View of LBJ's Mistress In this episode, Adam Finnegan and Kris Millegan talk to Peggy Brown, daughter-in-law of Madeline Brown, to discuss her book "Privileged View: The Confessions of Madeleine Brown, Mistress of LBJ and Witness to History" to discuss some of the history and what it was like to grow up in these circles and what some of the people in it were like. https://trineday.com/collections/new-releases/products/privileged-view Madeleine Duncan Brown's Privileged View reveals a vivid insider's account of Texas politics, power, and secrecy that reverberates through U.S. history. As Lyndon B. Johnson's confidante and lover, Brown witnessed behind closed doors the maneuvers of oilmen, politicians, and influencers who shaped America's destiny. Through Brown's perspective, readers are drawn into the heart of the Texas elite — figures like Clint Murchison, H.L. Hunt and Johnson himself — as they orchestrate and control, from covert alliances to shocking admissions. In a book endorsed by Jim Marrs, author of Crossfire, the basis for Oliver Stone's JFK, Brown recounts chilling events from Johnson's whispered promise that the “Kennedys will never embarrass me again,” to firsthand insights about the 8F Group, a powerful oil-and-political syndicate. This tale is not just about one man's rise to power, but a web of influence stretching across high-stakes dealings, friendships with mobsters, and crucial moments in U.S. history, such as the Kennedy assassination and the Vietnam War escalation. Privileged View brings readers to the tables where Texas's elite made history— in smoky backrooms, on private ranches, and in extravagant gatherings where decisions that shaped the nation were made. As Brown navigates a path through these dangerous waters, she uncovers shocking truths, including how Lyndon B. Johnson and the powerful oilmen shaped and protected their interests at any cost. Her story offers a compelling lens on the dark side of American politics, exposing a narrative that remained hidden for decades. Madeleine Duncan Brown (1925-2002) was an American who claimed to be a longtime mistress of United States President Lyndon B. Johnson. In addition to claiming that a son was born out of that relationship, Brown also implicated Johnson in a conspiracy to assassinate President John F. Kennedy. Jim Marrs (1943-2017) was an American newspaper journalist and New York Times best-selling author of books and articles on a wide range of alleged cover-ups and conspiracies. Marrs was a prominent figure in the JFK assassination conspiracy theories community and his 1989 book Crossfire was a source for Oliver Stone's 1991 film JFK. 

Val Kilmer played Jim Morrison in 1991's The Doors to great acclaim but was, alas, snubbed by the Academy. People are strange, eh? Yes, the movie's release was attacked by fans and former band members of The Doors for its alleged inaccuracies and exaggerations. But now, years later, were movie audiences just riders on the storm of bad press? Upon rewatch, does the Oliver Stone movie provide some truth among the spectacle? And was Meg Ryan the best choice for Pam? The Old Roommates attempt to light your fire with a revisit through their middle-aged lens.

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 5th study session on Abraham Bolden's The Echo From Dealey Plaza. This month, the House Oversight Committee's Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets heard testimony from Oliver Stone, Jefferson Morley, and Eugene DiEugenio. The proceedings revealed White CIA officers repeatedly lied under oath during several official hearings into the assassination of Pres. Kennedy. White CIA officers like James Angleton accessed 198 pages of classified information on Lee Harvey Oswald days before the 1963 murder in Dallas. The Task Force even released the CIA written report which flatly rejects the lone gunman theory that Oswald alone murdered the president. During last week's session, the Chicago trial against Mr. Bolden begins with a parade of people classified as black being called to testify to his misdeeds. Readers were especially struck by Richard Walters, an illiterate black male who worked as an "informant" for the secret service. He testified that he signed a statement attesting to Bolden's guilt and general niggardly nature. We pondered how you verify a written document or sign it if you can't read. Judge Joseph Sam Perry, Racist Suspect, stonewalled George Howard's every attempt to defend his client and, somehow, the transcript to this important trial is incomplete. #GoneToTexas #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

Glenn Beck Special. Who ACTUALLY Killed JFK? Glenn Reveals Assassination BOMBSHELLS Glenn resurrects the iconic Oval Office set used in Oliver Stone's “JFK” film and dives into the massive JFK files release from the Trump administration. Conspiracy theories swirled for years that rogue CIA elements or Lyndon B. Johnson were behind the murder of Kennedy. Glenn's team, aided by AI, sifted through the thousands of newly declassified documents to test the theories, and what they found was troubling: CIA wiretapping, media infiltration, ties to Lee Harvey Oswald's rifle and ammo. But what of LBJ's alleged role? Legendary political strategist Roger Stone tells Glenn about his private conversations with President Nixon that led him to write “The Man Who Killed Kennedy.” Afterward, Glenn speaks to Shane Stevens, the grandson of Billie Sol Estes — a Texas businessman with alleged ties to LBJ. In January, he gave a digital copy of a secret family audiotape to "The Alex Jones Show." The conversations alleged that then-Vice President Johnson hired Mac Wallace to kill JFK. But was the tape real, or an elaborate AI hoax? Glenn's team asks a JFK expert to verify its authenticity and for the first time ever, Shane plays the chilling confession live in-studio. Glenn argues that the JFK assassination isn't just history — it's a warning. From Benghazi to 9/11, COVID origins to Trump's Russia probe, the same patterns of secrecy and deception persist. If the CIA or deep state got away with a coup in 1963, what's stopping them now? BLAZETV+ BONUS CONTENT Get it all now, only at https://blazetv.com/glenn • Glenn and Roger Stone react to a buried Nixon tape in which he and CIA Director Richard Helms discuss “who shot John?" • Shane Stevens tells Glenn why he kept family confession tapes that allege LBJ's plot to kill JFK hidden for so long. • Glenn recreates Lee Harvey Oswald's JFK assassination shots with the exact rifle, scope, and rare CIA-requisitioned ammo at a Texas shooting range. Then, he tests the exact angle and speed with a moving target at an Oklahoma ranch. Was he able to hit the targets with the same timing between the three infamous shots? The results raise serious doubts about the “magic bullet theory” and the official lone-gunman narrative from the Warren Commission.

Episode 4379: Rise Of The Liberal Resistance; Oliver Stone To Speak In Front Of GOP Oversight

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:00pm- On Monday night, The Atlantic published an article erroneously claiming the Trump Administration “mistakenly” deported a Maryland father to a terrorism confinement center in El Salvador. During Tuesday's press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the magazine's story is not true and that the individual in question is, in fact, a member of the MS-13 gang—which has been designated as a foreign terrorist organization. Leavitt explained: "If you just saw the headline from…The Atlantic magazine this morning, you would think this individual was father of the year." 4:30pm- On Monday, the House Oversight Committee's Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets held a hearing on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy—which included testimony from filmmaker Oliver Stone. Stone—the Director of the 1991 movie “JFK”—implored Congress to “reopen what the Warren Commission failed miserably to complete.” 4:50pm- At 4:00pm on Wednesday, President Donald Trump is expected to announce “reciprocal” tariffs on imports from foreign nations. What impact will this have on the American economy?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/01/2025): 3:05pm- On Monday night, Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) began a filibuster to protest the Trump Administration and its policies—claiming the administration has “inflicted pain” and rejected “common decency.” Booker is now on his 20th hour of speaking from the Senate floor and has vowed to speak “for as long as I am physically able.” While filibustering the Civil Rights Act of 1957, then-Senator Strom Thurmond set the record for longest speech on the Senate floor at 24 hours and 18 minutes. Is this Booker's way of keeping his name in the news so he can set himself up for yet another presidential run? 3:30pm- Senator Dave McCormick—United States Senator from Pennsylvania—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his new bipartisan bill to “combat the scourge of fentanyl.” Sen. McCormick also talks about his efforts to place term limits on House and Senate members, President Donald Trump's expected tariff adoption, and politicized district court judges doing their best to upend Trump Administration policies. 3:50pm- Approaching his 21st continuous hour of speaking from the Senate floor, Sen. Cory Booker conceded that “the Democratic Party has made mistakes.” Rich notes that Booker is not even filibustering a specific policy—he just doesn't like the president and won't stop talking about it. 4:00pm- On Monday night, The Atlantic published an article erroneously claiming the Trump Administration “mistakenly” deported a Maryland father to a terrorism confinement center in El Salvador.

What impact will this have on the American economy? 5:00pm- Susan Crabtree—RealClearPolitics National Political Correspondent & Author of the book, “Fools Gold: The Radicals, Con Artists, and Traitors Who Killed the California Dream and Now Threaten Us All”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Gavin Newsom's appearance on Bill Maher where the California Governor continued to falsely portray himself as a political moderate despite historically embracing far-left policies. During the interview, Gov. Newsom refused to confirm his intent to run for president in 2028—but we all know he's going to! Plus, Crabtree talks about a disturbing new report she broke indicating Secret Service failed to respond to insider threat complaints.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 114: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: NO, NBC NEWS AND KRISTEN WELKER - YOU IDIOTS - TRUMP HAS NEVER BEEN 'JOKING' ABOUT A 3RD TERM: Only to dimwitted media types who have been lying to themselves and their audience was it a shock when Welker insisted yesterday to Trump that he’s “joking” about stealing an unconstitutional and illegal third term and the Dictator replying “No I’m not joking, I’m not joking" and he alluded to several ways to game the 22nd Amendment Term Limits. Trump has been serious about this since at least 2023 and the first time I reported on that fact on this podcast was on Wednesday, November 8th… 2023. This has been the plan (like all the other plans) take something unconstitutional and illegal and do it anyway and dare you to sue and get his Concierge Supreme Court to invent a new law and a new country to LET him do it anyway AND insist THIS is the law and if you oppose him, YOU’RE breaking it. That’s the way they papered over Trump’s violation of the Insurrection Clause in the 14th Amendment. Worse yet, the man who has best encapsulated the evil inside Trump, Yale History professor Timothy Snyder, is leaving the country. Literally. Moving to the University of Toronto. If that doesn't tell you all you need to know about how much Trump is NOT kidding. IF ANYBODY STOPS TRUMP it'll be the corporations and Wall Street types who suddenly realize that when he said he'd cook the economy to give all the money to the rich guys he meant just him and Musk. Or maybe it'll be Trump's Intel Community. Somebody is leaking career-ending stories about Pete Hegseth and Bring-Your-Wife-To-Secret-Meetings-Work-Day and Bring-Your-Brother-Into-A-Nepo-Job-Day and I wonder who it could be. Perhaps the National Security Advisor who needs Hegseth to take the fall for SignalGate and just happens to have the number of the editor of The Atlantic programmed into his phone? If we're lucky maybe Hegseth and Mike Waltz will accomplish the rare simultaneous double knockout! B-Block (33:06) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Anna Paulina Luna thinks NBC is hiding a videotape with time code proving Oswald wasn't at the JFK Assassination (three years before time code was invented). A would-be GOP Nominee for Governor of Virginia thinks Anne Frank appeared in a classroom in California 20 years ago to tell gang bangers about the holocaust. And Bill Maher has self-destructed again. Now he thinks he's going to meet Trump because they respect him, because he was the first to predict Trump wouldn't leave office, and to heal the country. And Chris Cuomo and Gavin Newsom are there to reinforce Bill's gullibility! C-Block (49:00) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: So I've resumed my TV sports career! I am back on the air this week in pre-season specials on nine regional baseball networks that carry nine major league clubs. This kinda conflicts with my complaints about the same guys doing sports and politics at this time. I'll explain my rationale.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
