Description
The John F. Kennedy assassination, and the circumstances surrounding it, have remained one of the most enduring, fascinating flashpoints in American history more than 60 years since it happened. Countless books, podcasts, TV shows, and more have spawned in the decades since. Yet there is still plenty of mystery and mystique surround the events…which have given rise to some prominent conspiracy theories. The recent release of more files related to the murder of JFK has only further added interest to the mystery.
What makes the JFK assassination and its context so compelling? What do we definitively know about what happened, and what’s still unexplained? What do the newly released files tell us? What are some things you may know about how it all happened? Here to talk about those topics and more on today’s episode is Jack Moore. Jack is a former prosecutor turned baseball pitching coach and host of his own podcast, Moore to Consider. His passions include history, Constitutional law, and sports, and the JFK assassination has been a lifelong fascination of his.
Today’s random question: What is the best baseball pitching performance you have ever witnessed?
