Summary

We’ve covered the Kennedy family in some detail during the show’s run, but like any sprawling dynasty, there’s always more to explore! This week, Alicia brings us the backstory of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the son of slain Attorney General and presidential candidate, Robert F. Kennedy. Let’s just say that Bobby experienced a troubled youth, which was certainly not helped by the high profile murders his family was subjected to, or his family’s effectively unlimited money and prestige. After peering into RFK Jr's broken youth, Alicia brings us right up to the present day (at least, to the start of 2023) in the life of the notable womanizer and vaccine skeptic. With three marriages under his belt, he’s experienced disappointment and tragedy in love – but it’s never stopped him from continuing to try!

0:29.8	Hello and welcome to trashy divorces, everybody's favorite good podcast about bad relationships.
0:36.6	My name is Stacey. And I'm Alicia. Welcome also this week to
0:41.1	done and done to where everything is truly connected. This encore plus is going out for our
0:48.5	trashy divorces folks and also for my investigators over on done and done. Turns out that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a
0:57.5	little bit topical these days. He has gotten himself in the news. It was time to pull these out of the
1:04.2	January 2023 archives in this two-parters smooshed together today.
1:12.2	For my done-and-done investigators, I thought this would be a great one coming for you as
1:17.4	we are working through our Kennedy Chronicles.
1:20.4	There's a lot of history and spider webs in this one that I think you'll like.
1:24.3	It's also excellent background for the absolute downright dirty feud
1:30.3	that occurred between Armand Dominic Dunn and RFK Jr. I know you're excited about that bit of
1:37.1	storytelling. It's so good. This is all the background you'd want for it. Way trashy, way
1:43.0	investigatory. I think this is going to be a hit for both trashy divorces and done and done in a crossover this week.
1:49.6	A lot of trashy included in this one, along with so many other players from so many investigations.
1:56.7	I see no other alternative but to go, go, go.
2:15.6	Music I see no other alternative but to go, go, go. Okay, Alicia, I'm so happy because you've finally gotten us to a good Kennedy, right?
2:17.7	Nope, nope, nope, nope.
2:22.1	The good Kennedy I covered on Dun & Dun, Kit Kennedy, Rosemary Kennedy.
2:26.6	Yeah, this is not a, not maybe, a good Kennedy.
2:32.9	Because sometimes just the name Kennedy evokes many feelings and images for Americans. And, you know, worldwide. That may be even stronger when you hear
