Welcome to a special episode of the Chuck Toddcast. Why am I calling it a special episode?

Is it a very special episode of Blossop? No, I kid. I'm sorry, I'm showing my age here, but when we used to say, when you ever heard the phrase, a very special episode, it usually was Blossom for whatever reason.

But this one's a special episode.

We're going a little bit long and a little bit less on the news, although it is something that's

been in the news over the last couple of weeks, and that is the release of new files about the

JFK assassination, more importantly about what the government did or did not know about Lee Harvey

Oswald before he ended up

becoming the chief suspect and assassin of John F. Kennedy on that front. My guest is Jeff Morley. He is the man behind JFK Fax. If you are familiar with his name, I'm guessing,

because you're already a subscriber to him on Substack. But he's been, you know, he tries to, he certainly

has his own theory on the conspiracy. And the two of us disagree on where this is headed. But at the end of the day, he's focused on what he can prove, what the documents have said.

And this man has been through these documents for decades.

I'm not just talking a year or two.

He isn't somebody that just started doing this when the Internet was invented.

He's been doing this story basically back since the early 90s,

and he's probably as well known of an expert on all things the government has or may have on

Oswald as anybody there is out there. So I think you will enjoy this. But I do want to leave you with this

before I just let you dive in to this episode. When we think about the issue of trust and how

much of it's been lost, you know, I talk about government, there's distrust of government out there.

It seems like it's, you know, and there's lots of reasons for it, right? The government didn't do,

in many ways, weapons of mass destruction, right? That was a moment of government distrust, making people question whether they can believe their leaders. You had, frankly, the fact that government didn't send anybody to jail after the Great Recession, right? Here was this massive, essentially, destruction of the American economy all to make extra money on bad

mortgages. And no one went to jail for this. I think that has added to this distrust that people

have out there of government. With the press, I think that we've had a few of these moments.
