Okay, we are live. Hi, this is William Ramsey. Welcome to William Ramsey Investigates on today's show of a very special guest. His name is Thomas Meyer, M-A-I-E-R. And he is the author of a book. If you're watching this on YouTube, Brock Finn, or X. It is Mafia Spies, the inside story of the CIA, gangsters, JFK, and Castro. And it was originally published in 2019.

But you'll see that if you're watching this, this is the new poster or cover for the book

because there is going to be a Paramount docuseries that's coming out in July.

So people look forward to that.

It's an excellent book.

It has great reviews.

There's a review on there for somebody who's also

been a former guest on my show martin dugard and you can listen to that it's called taking berlin

but also excellent reviews from people you might know michael connolly scott trot but this is not

mr meyer's first book he's also written book. He's also written Newhouse.

It's also written Dr. Spock on the Kennedys, which are also involved in this book.

He's very famous for a book titled Masters of Sex, The Life and Times of William Masters and Virginia Johnson, the couple who taught America How to Love.

That was from 2009.

That's also very well-received docu-series or drama, which you

received awards for, including a Golden Globe nominee and the American Film Institute TV program

of the year for the author-producers. So really great accolades. And also he's written

When Lions Roar, the Churchill's and the Kennedys,

and then also in 2019, all that glitters, Anna Winter, Tina Brown, and the rivalry inside America's

richest media empire. But again, we're going to talk today about this book. And the full title,
