Welcome to JFK in The Enduring Secret.

0:06.4

I'm your host, Jeff Crudell.

Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the podcast. Today's episode is episode 169. I hope that you enjoyed episode 168, which was a quick wander and a tribute to one of our most sacred of American holidays, Memorial Day.

0:42.7

It's only 16 minutes long, so if you have not already listened in and you are able to find just a couple of minutes of extra time today,

0:47.4

please do take a minute to listen to it before the long weekend ends.

0:52.4

Yes, it's a wander, but I think it's a short one worth taking.

There is one more programming note that I would like to mention to you, one that I did have an

1:02.7

intention of saying more about in earlier episodes, but given the pace of things lately, I deferred

1:07.9

1:12.1

Crumpton. Matt is a lawyer who has his own JFK podcast entitled Solving JFK. It's a terrific podcast.

1:22.3

And that makes sense because, as I said, Matt is a lawyer.

1:43.2

Recently, Matt invited me to join him on his show, Solving JFK,

1:48.4

and I've had the good fortune to participate on two of his separate recap and rebuttal episodes.

1:54.7

What are these episodes? Well, occasionally, as Matt finishes up coverage of a topic,

2:00.6

he pauses to produce an episode which

2:03.4

recaps the materials most recently covered, and he does so in a succinct way related to that

2:09.6

particular topic, and he includes and addresses listener comments that are potential rebuttals

2:15.8

to his conclusions or statements. Matt chose to

2:19.4

include me on his first two recap and rebuttal episodes. It's been gratifying to do the shows with Matt

2:25.6

and I hope you'll check his podcast out and most certainly include those two episodes along with
