Richard Kerr joins Ed Opperman to talk about Roy Cohn. A name which is vaguely familiar to those outside the political bubble, yet central to politics over six decades, Cohn cut his teeth on the McCarthy trials of the late 50s all the way to the dawning of the age of Trump. A political machinator, he was simultaneously viewed as a genius strategist and a villainous shadow depending on where you stood in the spectrum. And if you stood in his way...A ruthless and cunning adversary, Cohn had a complicated private life. Being gay in America in the mid twentieth century was not an easy life; so much so his desire to exterminate the presence of gay or lesbian members of parties and staff by any and all means. He was possibly driven by his own self-hate. In a fascinating insight into politics, the mob and the mentoring of a would-be Tyrant, Cohn is a fascinating study in Machiavellian cruelty and scheming. A man with plenty to hide, but plenty to hide it behind.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

If you enjoy the podcast, I hope you'll take a moment to leave us a rating. That helps us grow our audience! Watch us on YouTube!  We're starting this week's episode with some bad news about Southwest Airlines. Amid rumors and internal announcements that the airline would make some cuts, they announced pretty massive service cuts to service from Atlanta. These airports will soon no longer see service from Southwest out of Atlanta: Cleveland Fort Lauderdale Fort Myers, Florida Greenville/Spartanburg, South Carolina Jackson, Mississippi Jacksonville, Florida Louisville, Kentucky Memphis Miami Milwaukee Oklahoma City Omaha Philadelphia Richmond, Virginia Sarasota, Florida We interrupt this somber news day to talk about our friend Michael Trager's event ZorkFest. Not only is ZorkFest a great event to learn about travel AND how to play the Vegas status game, it's also where Richard and Ed first connected (no matter how much Richard says otherwise). If you want to register, we have two discount codes you can use: Code "pizzalate88" gets you $50 off a ZorkFest ticket Use code "wish" to have Trager donate $88 to Make a Wish Nevada on your behalf. And, we end the show on a sad note, talking about how Southwest's new assigned seating will work. It's about the worst of the possible scenarios we contemplated a few weeks ago.
