Transcript
- 0:21The focus, Focus. Lack of focus.
- 0:24The very uneducational bypass that makes it.
- 0:26No, no. Divergent Witchcraft.
- 0:28Paranormal Activity, conspiracies, true crime and
- 0:31general shall talk open one big cluster fuck of a podcast.
- 0:35I'm just the and after a day and a half of having the shits, my
- 0:39asshole is looking like a Kennedy's head.
- 0:41I'm joined, as always, by our Hostess with the most chest who
- 0:45has a lot in common with Marilyn Monroe.
- 0:47She's known for being busty, promiscuous, and men who have
- 0:50sex with her end up leaking from their heads.
- 0:53It's Danny. Thomas.
- 0:58They heard that the first, like the first time that you said
- 1:01that. I thought you said bleeding from
- 1:04their heads and I was like, that's not that accurate.
- 1:09Are you accusing me of having an STI?
- 1:14No, Daddy, I'm accusing you of having a grippy whippy.
- 1:20A grippy whippy. Love that, love that.
- 1:22Actually, I'm on. I'm currently on an antibiotic
- 1:25for my skin so I have like a really bad breakout again and
- 1:29it's the same thing that they use for gonorrhea.
- 1:32So if I have gonorrhea, that'll go true?
- 1:35So. Interesting.
- 1:39What is today's podcast about that?
- 1:43Gonorrhea going, going gonorrhea, the Kennedys, which
- 1:53only enough we have. Momdani just got elected mayor
- 1:58of New York and we love a sexy man in power and the Kennedys,
- 2:03we're all very sexy men. So this episode is just going to
- 2:07be about sexy men. And they're crazy sister.
- 2:12There's one crazy sister. Like we covered her a little bit
- 2:15in one of the episodes at one point.
- 2:17I don't know if it ever made it to air.
- 2:20Yes, it did. It was.
- 2:21It was the asylum episode, eh? How come, Danny?
- 2:25I have to remember all of this stuff that you tell me.
- 2:28It was I. Get drunk when we were talking
- 2:30about the asylums and she has eh.
- 2:34She got a lobotomy at the age of 23 I believe. 23 so I will I'll
- 2:41go in I'll cover her a little bit in this episode.
- 2:43Just skim over it for those of you who didn't listen to that
- 2:47one, because we have did go pretty in depth with it and but
- 2:51let's just get into it so. Yeah, so just.
- 2:56For a kind of a generalized, what is this going to be kind of
- 3:01a thing is what is it about the Kennedys that would bring us to
- 3:06hocus Pocus, lack of focus and not some political podcast like
- 3:15the rest of history or something like that.
- 3:18So they are a cursed family. There is.
- 3:23They're involved in quite a lot of scandals throughout history
- 3:27and it is said that they're cursed.
- 3:29It's another kind of weird Von Eric type situation.
- 3:35With. Kennedy.
- 3:38And it's still they still the family continues to have
- 3:41terrible look up until like today.
- 3:45They've been involved in like numerous scandals, cover ups
- 3:48like from literally the 1800s onwards.
- 3:52They're just a very shady, dodgy family.
- 3:56Yeah, so there's been like 100 and from what I can tell on you
- 4:00is like it's 150 years of weird shit happening to this family.
- 4:05Yeah. Now I'm not going to go that far
- 4:07back because I didn't study that much, but I will give.
- 4:12Kind of I can bullshit. My way through.
- 4:16That I can bullshit my way through the great grandparents,
- 4:18but let's let's not dwell on that.
- 4:22I was going to start with the grandparents, PJ and then and I
- 4:26was going to go straight into it.
- 4:27But what we'll do first, I want to go into a little bit about
- 4:33Rose because a lot of people, surprisingly that I talked to
- 4:37just had no idea that this woman existed, and for a good reason.
- 4:40They didn't want you to know that she existed, so.
- 4:45Until you brought her up, I had no idea she existed at all.
- 4:48Yeah. Like loads and loads of people,
- 4:50like I've, I've brought, they're like, no, there was only ever
- 4:53brothers. I was like, it wasn't.
- 4:55So in 1941, when Rosemary was just 23 years old, her dad,
- 5:00Joseph Kennedy Senior, forced her to get a lobotomy.
- 5:04This is because Joseph Kennedy was grooming his sons for
- 5:07careers in politics and the Rosemary problem, he so lovingly
- 5:12called it, was a threat to the family.
- 5:14So they locked her away in an institution for 20 years and
- 5:18nobody visited her. Not once.
- 5:21Now the Rosemary problem was that she liked to party.
- 5:26Basically, she was a fun spirited young woman.
- 5:29She like was she just loved going out and about.
- 5:34They shipped her off to a bunch of different fucking boarding
- 5:36schools and things like that, like convent schools.
- 5:40And she was shagging rings around herself, getting drunk
- 5:44like she was kind of like a, like a fashionista, like a bit
- 5:47of like a, I would say like a Paris Hilton kind of figure of
- 5:52her time, which is actually. Funny, just kind of sounds like
- 5:55she was being a Kennedy really to me, because like everyone
- 5:58else was like, we'll obviously we'll get through that the
- 6:02history of all the Kennedys, but like even Joe himself was a
- 6:07womanizer. Like, so like the the fact that
- 6:11she was a just because it was like the double standard of the
- 6:15fact that she's a girl, it's going to create a kind of a
- 6:20blemish on the family name. I would say so, yeah.
- 6:24Just literally because she was a woman and because the boys were
- 6:27all destined for such great things.
- 6:29And to go back then to like what I was saying with Paris Hilton,
- 6:33she was also shipped off to one of those schools.
- 6:36I don't know if you've seen. Well, you can't really call it a
- 6:39school. It was like a fucking camp where
- 6:42they were all like abused and beaten to kind of like set them
- 6:47straight basically. But even in her documentaries,
- 6:49if you haven't seen it, it's it's actually really, really
- 6:51good. It's really worth the watch.
- 6:54YouTube. Yeah, So she was taken in the
- 6:58middle of the night out of her bed, like kidnapped, bundled
- 7:02into a van and then shipped off to the school.
- 7:05It was like somewhere like in, like the fucking wilderness in
- 7:08Connecticut, I think. Yeah, it would have been because
- 7:10she would. They were living in New York and
- 7:13she was, yeah, she was bundled off into one of those schools
- 7:16and, like, just had the ship beaten out of her.
- 7:20She was just in a really bad way.
- 7:21She was like abused. They'd like watch her shower
- 7:25torture. She was like, I think molested a
- 7:28few times by some of the quote UN quote counselors that they
- 7:32had and. Paris Hilton, Yeah.
- 7:38You go. But like her family are like
- 7:44billionaires. They shipped her off.
- 7:47It was her parents that shipped her off because she was given
- 7:50the Hilton family a bad name because she was like a wild
- 7:52child. Shipped her off to molestation
- 7:56camp. Yeah, yeah.
- 7:58What and she spoke so she you should again, it's in this watch
- 8:01this documentary. It is like, like she obviously
- 8:04is in the documentary, but like she even like meets up with some
- 8:08of the survivors and stuff and like they've brought them to
- 8:10court and everything since and she's spoken on it and like
- 8:12helps other survivors and she's donated a lot of money to people
- 8:16who have like been put through those camps.
- 8:18She's got like various charities and stuff like humanitarian
- 8:21charities because she's trying to get places like that shut
- 8:24down. And they're very much still
- 8:25operating and around today. Is this the is this anything to
- 8:32do with Because there was the the documentary there a while
- 8:35back about the kids who were sent to like they were bundled
- 8:42off in the middle of the night into like these camps and they
- 8:45were kind of just taken away from like their parents signed
- 8:50off on it, but they hadn't a clue what they were saying the
- 8:52kids up for like, yeah, that was kind of photo.
- 8:55Is that the same thing that she went to only like a rich.
- 8:57Yeah, pretty. Much and like same thing as kind
- 9:00of Rose Kennedy is like they had sent her to a bunch of like
- 9:03these strict schools, like where boarding schools and she'd just
- 9:06break out with them and she was into her party and her drugs and
- 9:11stuff and like they just were like, no, you're going to sell
- 9:14you the good name. And like Nikki Hilton, her
- 9:16sister, like she gets really emotional on on the episode
- 9:20because she was remembers her like it's obviously traumatic.
- 9:23These people just broke into their fucking home in the middle
- 9:26of the night and just took her over bed and like she remembers
- 9:30her screaming, being dragged down the hallway.
- 9:34And then they did. I think that the dad caught
- 9:37Conrad Hilton. I think the dad is, I don't know
- 9:39what his name is, but the mom, Kathy Hilton, she's in bits like
- 9:44on it because she they didn't know what they were sending her
- 9:46off to. And she was saying like, her
- 9:49relationship with her parents has obviously been fucking
- 9:51strained since then, but she also accepts that.
- 9:54No shit. They didn't, yeah, that they
- 9:57didn't really know kind of like what they were sending her to.
- 10:00But like, yeah, she, she had all that happen.
- 10:04And because if you hear, like, actual Paris Hilton talk, like
- 10:08that's not her voice. Like Paris Hilton is like a
- 10:12character like that. She's made-up.
- 10:14Oh, yeah, you can. You can hear the change in when
- 10:17she's on like the TV show and when she's and.
- 10:22She's like a high. When when like she was, she
- 10:25wasn't a kind of like lawyer mode.
- 10:27Yeah, she's highly intelligent. She was actually studying to be
- 10:30a veterinarian. Yeah.
- 10:32She's, she's really, really, really cool.
- 10:34And like, yeah, she went through that for, I think they, she was
- 10:37there for a year, a year or so, I think.
- 10:39And like, you should watch the documentary.
- 10:41Like it's fucking harrowing, like.
- 10:43Because I watched 1 documentary on her.
- 10:46Yeah, she had very been eating in the.
- 10:52IT was, it was done in night mode, like so.
- 10:55Yeah, yeah. Turns out like in in in the
- 10:58daytime, her kids weren't as they any because it wasn't.
- 11:01But that was a that was a good documentary.
- 11:02I thought good, good ending, good ending.
- 11:06Very happy ending to that one. Nice happy ending.
- 11:08Yeah, the other one isn't quite as as nice, but yeah, no, she
- 11:12like you should definitely watch it because it is like it goes
- 11:16from like like that voice to like it cuts to her actually
- 11:21talking. It was just like, whoa, well,
- 11:23she's a fucking I. Sounded like Morgan Freeman.
- 11:26Yeah, she, but she's like a such a like a kind person.
- 11:30She gives so much to charity. She's really, really good with
- 11:33her fans. Like she's made friends with her
- 11:34fans from years ago that she's still friends with.
- 11:38And they like FaceTime and she like, flies them out to LA and
- 11:41takes them for dinner and stuff sometimes and like makes a point
- 11:44of sending them stuff on their birthdays and Christmases and
- 11:48stuff. And like, she just seems like a
- 11:50really nice down to earth person.
- 11:54But look, I mean locally. Let's get back to.
- 11:57Rose. And not Harris.
- 12:00Just I was just doing it. Doing that, but I.
- 12:05You're edging me on Rose because the.
- 12:07The thing about Rose Kennedy is the lobotomizer.
- 12:13They didn't just send her off to this thing.
- 12:15And that's and the thing about libotomies at that stage, yeah.
- 12:19But like libotomies are kind of like this was just I think she
- 12:23was like the 70th or 80th like lobotomy ever.
- 12:30Knew at the time, yeah. So basically and.
- 12:33They fucked her up. 1935 I believe they started testing the
- 12:39lobotomy. So if you don't know what a
- 12:41lobotomy is, it is basically an ice pick that goes in through
- 12:45the inner corner of your eye and it is hammered into the brain.
- 12:49It is supposed to basically stop all kind of feelings.
- 12:54So it would say get rid of like psychosis, depression, madness,
- 12:59things like that. By I mean the theory of it is to
- 13:02cut off that part of your brain, but they go and.
- 13:07They the amygdala. Is that what it is?
- 13:10Yes, that's and. Like again, I don't know, I'm a
- 13:13fucking, I'm a moron, but it's basically a very sharp SSRI
- 13:18that's hammered into your. But they they knock it until
- 13:23you're basically the patient. Once the patient starts to like
- 13:27which and convulse and freak out, they're like, all right,
- 13:29there we go. That's just enough.
- 13:31So basically it's it's, it's just enough to have fixed you or
- 13:36fucked you up and you don't really know until the patient
- 13:39wakes up. But unfortunately for poor Rose,
- 13:45she basically reverted back to a 2 year old child.
- 13:49She could not talk. She was just like gibberish.
- 13:52She was shit in her pants. She was just reliant on somebody
- 13:56else for the rest of her life. And then obviously they couldn't
- 13:59have like a, I'll just say they they couldn't have a retired in
- 14:03the family in the public eye when everyone was trying to be
- 14:05like a politician. So she was just shipped off to
- 14:08an institute. And I think we mentioned that on
- 14:10the the asylum episode as well, that they did that with a lot of
- 14:13the royal family, like the incest babies that were clearly
- 14:17coming out like like that point. Right.
- 14:21So with the royal family, because, yeah, exactly with what
- 14:26you're saying with the incest, like because they're kind of
- 14:31like dipping, dipping in the same gene pool, like a lot of
- 14:36these kids are coming out a little bit strange.
- 14:39So a little bit. Messed up.
- 14:42Yeah, so the shift off the kind of and the the special needs
- 14:48kids kept the paedophiles but shipped off the special needs
- 14:52kids who probably would have been harmless.
- 14:55Yeah, yeah. It's really, really sad because
- 14:59it's like it's if it worked like fucking whatever, fine.
- 15:04And you hear they do like say a lot of a lot of things really
- 15:08important means they do kind of like push the ones that worked,
- 15:10but the ones that didn't, they're just hidden away like
- 15:13exactly what Rose was like. It's not talked about because
- 15:18they were still in use. I think the last ever lobotomy
- 15:21was carried out in like the 70s so.
- 15:25It was. Being done for a while, yeah,
- 15:27for like a long time they kept up the bottom.
- 15:30Me again, mostly in America and stuff like that.
- 15:34Obviously just like I don't think it ever really like took
- 15:38off over here, but. No, in Ireland, what we used to
- 15:42do instead of the botomies, we would ship them off to a
- 15:48laundry. So yeah, the Magdalene
- 15:51Laundries, we could do a whole fucking episode on that as well.
- 15:54That was a horrible, horrible time in history and they only
- 15:58closed down late 90s as well. I think 1999.
- 16:02There were, yeah, it would have been delayed.
- 16:03I actually, I actually think that there might have still been
- 16:07laundries gone in the early 2000s.
- 16:10I would have to, I would have to Google that.
- 16:13But I do think that that's that's a fact that I heard.
- 16:16But that's because it that's another fucked up tale.
- 16:19Or we're drifted away from the Kennedys here.
- 16:22Don't get me stabbed by the Catholic Church.
- 16:25Oh, so we're not we're on these. I mean, it still is in the same
- 16:28vein because the Kennedys were Irish Catholic.
- 16:31But anyway, so. Catholic.
- 16:37So basically story of the Kennedys then it's been like
- 16:43sensationalized over the years, like people were and still are
- 16:48obsessed with them. I kind of, I never really got
- 16:51it. Like I just like kind of like an
- 16:55old money family that like just wiggle their way into politics,
- 16:59but that's that fucking. No, no, no, Danny, no.
- 17:04They're not old money. That's what's so fascinating
- 17:07about them. In Irish.
- 17:09Yeah, Catholic terms, it might be old money, but these?
- 17:13These were new. Money, if ever there was new
- 17:15money. They're all still in politics,
- 17:17so and they come from. Oh yeah, yeah, now they are.
- 17:20Yeah, that's what they. Mean now they're
- 17:21institutionalized, but like, yeah, but when their great
- 17:24grandmother came over on a coffin ship with not a pot to
- 17:28piss in and kind of built, built up a little bit of kind of the
- 17:38guy that came into Boston where there was a very anti which you
- 17:42wouldn't believe it about Boston now because Boston is so Irish.
- 17:46But there was real anti Irish sentiment in Boston at the time.
- 17:53And that's why everybody became kind of cliquish.
- 17:57So like in the 1850s, when like in the middle 1840s, eighteen
- 18:0350s in the height of Irish immigration to America, their
- 18:10great grandmother had landed married and then found herself
- 18:15like in an Irish community. And the Irish, the Irish
- 18:18Catholic community had to like bond together because the
- 18:22Americans were like, get these fucking Pineo Munch and fucking
- 18:27pasting white bastards out of here.
- 18:29What are they doing here? It's they they they act.
- 18:34They acted the same way to Irish people as you act to brown
- 18:38people over there in England. And yeah, it's, it's kind of
- 18:46it's fascinating the, the, the kind of where it went to because
- 18:52like as we go on to like you probably have the notes on PJ
- 18:56there where he, he became kind of really kind of popular in his
- 19:06dead the, the local Irish like community.
- 19:11And he was supposed to be very good for, you know, fighting,
- 19:16fighting for Irish rights. He was kind of like the mayor of
- 19:19the Irish community over there, like without being, you know,
- 19:22elected. He was just kind of like really
- 19:25high standing, like part of the, the Irish dyspora over there.
- 19:30And he, he used that kind of leverage of known people and
- 19:37getting on well with people that he started kind of buying up
- 19:42properties and making good business decisions.
- 19:47And that's how they started making their money.
- 19:50So he kind of as, as he went on, he, he kind of instilled in Joe
- 19:58Senior, who we'll see. He's kind of a patriarch of the,
- 20:03the Kennedys. He instilled in him a kind of a.
- 20:07You need to be you need to to make money by any means
- 20:16necessary. You need to have a good standing
- 20:19in the community. And yeah, you need to be very
- 20:23good at networking, which is this is the key to the Kennedys
- 20:28is like networking networking networking.
- 20:31So like they built up money out of kind of nowhere from the late
- 20:361800s and what me they they kind of they, they came out of
- 20:44nowhere and they shouldn't the, the success that the Kennedys
- 20:48have shouldn't really have happened.
- 20:51But for some reason, whatever way, whatever magic these guys
- 20:55were able to work, they became very a very successful family.
- 21:01Sorry, I just kind of took over there.
- 21:02I know you've got all the. Yeah, so I have a few notes on
- 21:06PJ, which I think you've already covered all of.
- 21:11But basically, yeah, very popular in his in his community
- 21:15amongst the Irish and stuff. But he did only have like a
- 21:18little bit more money than everyone else.
- 21:20Like he wasn't anything kind of like special from what you were
- 21:25saying. Yeah, it's absolutely true.
- 21:27What, like Joe being kind of just, you have to be charming,
- 21:31you have to win these people around.
- 21:34I'm dying. But yeah, basically he blonde
- 21:41haired Irish guy with these very distinct round glasses, like
- 21:45just really kind of like good looking.
- 21:47Typical Kennedy. What you think of when you think
- 21:50of the Kennedys, That's exactly what he looked like.
- 21:52Just the real fucking. I think they all look smarmy.
- 21:56Do you think they all look smarmy?
- 21:59I wouldn't say smarmy, but like, I they definitely look like they
- 22:08like they made their money from from dodgy deals.
- 22:12You know what I mean? Like you get what I'm saying?
- 22:14Like they don't look like they were born for a suit.
- 22:17They look like the suits were built around like they, they,
- 22:22I'm not saying they look uncomfortable in suits.
- 22:24They all look like guys that look like lizard people, you
- 22:28know? Yeah, Yeah.
- 22:30I wouldn't say the Lizard, see, because like, we should be
- 22:32fairly happy about the Kennedys because we're Irish and they are
- 22:35like a real yeah. Begrudging people though, Like
- 22:40yeah. We.
- 22:40Kind of. Are.
- 22:42Also we. Do we do like to?
- 22:45Get behind the kind of momentum whenever you see like the Irish
- 22:50lake. We got behind Obama because he
- 22:53said he was from fucking awfully like so like there is we we we
- 22:57have a filling stage in in OK and awfully the Barrack Obama
- 23:04Plaza because Obama Obama said somewhere down others lane that
- 23:12and there's someone from county awfully and we built him a
- 23:16fucking and I tell you, if there's there's one place do you
- 23:20want to stop on a motorway in Ireland, Barrack Obama Plaza is
- 23:24a pretty good place to stop. You can get whatever you want
- 23:28and Barrack Obama Obama Plaza. So we do get behind people who
- 23:33are Irish or even nearly Irish. So like like.
- 23:39In the fact that. In Wexford is something that is
- 23:42crazy. Yeah.
- 23:44Like it? Was Wexford Wexford?
- 23:45Yeah, there's apparently from Wexford, New Ross, more
- 23:50specifically where all the Nazis were were housed.
- 23:53I know I fucking bring that up on every single episode, but
- 23:56yeah, so that's. Where the blonde hair comes in
- 23:59from the Kennedys. Then yeah.
- 24:00And there's like a a monument like, so it's this big tall,
- 24:04like how we're looking thing that's been hit by lightning and
- 24:08it's really cool like this. They never repaired it.
- 24:10So it's like you can see the big like the big hole in it.
- 24:13And then there's like a JFK memorial like park.
- 24:19Well, they call it a National Park.
- 24:21It's only like fucking 4 acres or something.
- 24:24So I don't think it really as a National Park, but it's there's
- 24:29it's cool. I haven't been there in years,
- 24:30but we went there's like a a cool hedge maze and yeah, that's
- 24:34all I remember about it. But it's.
- 24:38There's a town in Ireland, right, called called
- 24:42Ballypourine. And Ronald Reagan, his ancestors
- 24:49come from this place. Bali Purine, right?
- 24:52Yeah, I know Ronald Reagan. He's he's.
- 24:54He's not the best. All right, but he also had
- 24:58claimed the Irish heritage, which is a big deal for like
- 25:02getting involved in America. There's a massive amount of
- 25:06Irish expats and Irish ancestry over there.
- 25:10So as we we're already getting into from the coffin ships from
- 25:14the, the the Irish famine, which wasn't a famine by the way, we
- 25:18can get into that as well. But Reagan, Reagan and claimed
- 25:26that he was from this place called Bali Boreen.
- 25:28Now in my building days, I was building a mansion for a guy
- 25:35down in Mitchell's town of Cork. And Bali Purine is this little
- 25:40town between Tipperary and Cork, right?
- 25:44And when I tell you that it is like, so this place was
- 25:51obviously very popular back when Reagan was depressed.
- 25:58So in the 80s is it the 80s would have been the 80s that
- 26:02Reagan? Would have been the 80s.
- 26:03Yeah, because he had his war on. Yeah, So, yeah, his war on
- 26:08drugs, his Nancy Reagan, wasn't that it?
- 26:10Her whole. Thing was like the.
- 26:12War on drugs. Yeah, yeah.
- 26:16Dancing in that global of 3000, apparently.
- 26:20Oh, really? Yeah, do you want to hear that,
- 26:23that rumor? No, that she was a.
- 26:28Deep Throat yeah, look, look, 3000 to the original Stroko is
- 26:33the is the rumor that goes around about old Nancy.
- 26:37It's so funny to me because like, I'm I'm saying that I'm
- 26:40talking about that and you're like, really?
- 26:42And then your profile picture. Is.
- 26:48Using like right now while I'm talking about Nancy Reagan being
- 26:52good at sucking Dick. We need to point out that my my
- 26:59picture on this is something that I would have taken during
- 27:04the pandemic. We're having really bad system
- 27:07issues with the system that we usually use to record and we're
- 27:11being forced on to zoom and just, he hasn't updated his
- 27:16picture since like and it's the scariest thing I've ever seen,
- 27:22but he can't have his camera on because he has connection
- 27:24issues. So it's just this.
- 27:29Picture Yeah, during the pandemic, like we were getting
- 27:33things got strange and that picture is because of the
- 27:37pandemic, let's just say. But we are five years on and I'm
- 27:41back to Zoom and but yeah, this, this town, Bali Parine, it's a
- 27:49little shit hole right now. I'm sure in the 80s it was
- 27:53probably, you know, the, the, the height, like it was very
- 27:57popular. And Reagan, I think came to
- 28:00visit and there was a Community Center there that was the Ronald
- 28:05Reagan Community Center. But the town right now looks
- 28:09like a ghost town because obviously, like, you know, it's
- 28:12in the West of Ireland. There's it's a small town, it's
- 28:14kind of in the middle of nowhere and there's nothing going on.
- 28:18There's no industry there. There's, there's, you know, the,
- 28:21the people that are living there are the the people whose kids
- 28:24all left the town. And when I say that, like
- 28:27there's buildings in that town that are just kind of like
- 28:29falling apart, it's it's in, it's in.
- 28:34I know I'm completely got off topic here, but this is the lack
- 28:39of politics. But it's yeah, but it's just
- 28:42crazy to wear to show that like once like, you know, I was going
- 28:46to say 20 years ago, shit, the 80s were 40 years ago and like
- 28:5440 years ago, that was obviously like at bustling town that was
- 28:59doing well and because of tourism, because of the American
- 29:04president was after being there, you know what I mean?
- 29:07So like now, just like obviously it's been that was, that was 10
- 29:13years ago. I, I saw like, or maybe more so
- 29:17like, you know, just 2530 years after the fact, the town has
- 29:22become like an absolute ghost town.
- 29:24So like, again, these presidents come and go, but they're not
- 29:29remembered. Not like the fucking Kennedys.
- 29:32No, that's true. That is very true.
- 29:35But like, yeah. And some of them are like the
- 29:38younger ones now, like the grandkids are fucking sexy.
- 29:41They're in their like, late 20s. Like some of them are.
- 29:44Some of their hot. They've gotten hot and they
- 29:47don't. Want to run politics?
- 29:48Dick, Dick, the Kennedy grandkids.
- 29:52Yeah, obvious Doctor Reagan's. Jesus, gotta get to see me
- 29:55somebody's pictures. Because I can imagine that there
- 29:58would be. Because.
- 29:59One of them and he's like. We talk about sexy on this
- 30:02podcast, but like it sexy truly decades is kind of you know,
- 30:10like because when people talk about Ted Bundy being sexy, like
- 30:13I look at it now or not, that's not a sexy man.
- 30:17Well, people are like, oh, sexy for the time.
- 30:20It wasn't, though. I don't even see how that would
- 30:23be sexy for the time. Like, I remember asking my mom
- 30:25about this, Like, so like, she would have been in her, like, in
- 30:28her 20s. Like when he was, like doing his
- 30:32thing, I was like, did you ever think he was attractive?
- 30:34And she was like, Jesus, no, he's rotten.
- 30:36But then I was like, yeah, but you, you, you shagged my dad at
- 30:39least five times. So like, you only have that good
- 30:42taste for me to kind of like, take her word on that.
- 30:45Like, my dad's rotten in the ground.
- 30:48Obviously he is right now. But like.
- 30:50Again. She's.
- 30:54Rot rot 10 is what I meant, not rotting.
- 30:59But. Is are you speaking objectively
- 31:02about your back? Are you like my dad's rotten?
- 31:04Because he's your back. No, no, objectively, my dad was
- 31:08a handsome dude. And like I, I get that.
- 31:11And like lots of people have said it over the years and
- 31:14stuff, I get it. I get it right.
- 31:16But I'm also just like, I don't think Ted Bundy.
- 31:21I think the serial killer they do think is hot as Dahmer.
- 31:26But now he's not threatening to me in the slightest.
- 31:29So that's probably why I'm thinking.
- 31:32Dahmer's attractive. Jammer was he, he had like a
- 31:36yeah, I think he was cute a. Little.
- 31:40Winky Geek. You can't tell me that he wasn't
- 31:44cute. I think he's cute like, but
- 31:47there's people in here like we, we, we covered it in the Ramirez
- 31:51episode that he had so many fucking groupies and women
- 31:54obsessed with him and he like, he like he was rotten, like he
- 31:59was absolutely gross and he had a little.
- 32:01Fat. Yeah, he was a stinky toothed,
- 32:04fucking dead like weird shark man.
- 32:08And he was. Notoriously like, dirty, like he
- 32:10didn't watch. He was notoriously like
- 32:13disgusting, grimy, fucking greasy man.
- 32:18And I'm like, and they're like, oh, we love a bad boy.
- 32:20It's like. But now that I think of it,
- 32:23Danielle, now did I think of this?
- 32:25Here we go. Why are we discussing what you
- 32:30think I is? The man I'm seeing now, which I
- 32:35told you about last night, we couldn't really talk about
- 32:37because we had system issues, is nothing like my usual type.
- 32:44First of all, he's Mexican. I met him at Home Depot waiting
- 32:47outside. Walking Jesus Christ.
- 32:51He loves that joke. It's fine.
- 32:54But yeah, he's he's he's, he's not like my usual type at all.
- 32:59Well, is this a hockey player? He's a hockey player, yeah.
- 33:04So he is your usual type, but. Has all of his own teeth though,
- 33:08and they're very straight and white.
- 33:11Do anything straight and white about might say, but tell me,
- 33:14tell me this and tell, tell me this a Mexican player.
- 33:20You said that it sounds like you've seen his Dick because.
- 33:24That's a very good. And a Mexican hockey player,
- 33:29this is the first time I'd see a Mexican heading towards the ice.
- 33:36That's that's some good satire right there.
- 33:39And so fucking what's Mexican? Mexican ice skaters can't be a.
- 33:51Ice. Skater A very an ice, an ice
- 33:54skater Mexican. What is like?
- 33:58I'm just trying to wrap my head around the fat, right?
- 34:01So he's from LA? Yeah.
- 34:04Like how come he's not playing like, you know, basketball or
- 34:10Domino's or whatever the the the cholos in LA play?
- 34:15What's how did he get onto how did he get onto an ice skating
- 34:21or hockey? I should say, like I keep saying
- 34:24it like he's horrible. And Dean.
- 34:27I know like played some glory style.
- 34:32Yeah, he's he's a hockey player. He is.
- 34:34He's a hockey player. He's a he's a sexy Mexican
- 34:37hockey player, I know. And he's, he's really.
- 34:42Nice. No, he doesn't.
- 34:45I want him Mexican. It's Movember.
- 34:47No porn, slash and plays ice hockey.
- 34:50He's the least stereotypical Mexican they've ever heard of.
- 34:54Right now. And he was like this, he like,
- 34:56he grew up like he was like a skater boy to skateboarder, one
- 34:59of those in California. And yeah, he lives in, he lives
- 35:05in Maine right now. But yeah, he's to share water.
- 35:11But yeah. He lives in Maine.
- 35:15He's in Maine. Yeah, he's obviously over there.
- 35:19Yeah, he'll be over here soon. Right, OK, I get you.
- 35:24He got, he got drafted. Interesting, but.
- 35:29Yeah, I was like, I'm not. I like told him because he
- 35:33listens to the podcast and he was just like, sorry, you're
- 35:36going to talk about me A. Podcast and as a kid, sorry, I'm
- 35:39sorry, Jose, sorry. Sorry.
- 35:41Wrong Domino's. I told him that I'm not gonna
- 35:45I'm not gonna say his real name is like as white as fuck, but
- 35:49I'm like, I'm just gonna refer to you as like a different
- 35:52Mexican name, like each time, like Juan and like Pablo.
- 35:59But we. Have Greg, I'm very sorry.
- 36:02We had like, we had that talk and it was just like, like, you
- 36:07know, like what's your middle name or whatever?
- 36:08And like, mine is, fuck, I hate my middle name.
- 36:10It's Maureen. It's like really embarrassing.
- 36:13But then like, because he's like an American from LA, he'd never
- 36:16heard that name before. So he was like, oh, it's not
- 36:18bad. And then I was like, what's
- 36:19yours? And he's like, no, you laugh at
- 36:21me. And I was like, no, I want to
- 36:22know. And he was like, what?
- 36:26Obviously burst out laughing. He's like, you're so fucking
- 36:29rude by. And I was like, no, it's going
- 36:31to tell you that you're one in a million.
- 36:35And then? He was like, it's not one.
- 36:38I was just saying not to fucking to fuck with you.
- 36:40He's like the least Mexican Mexican.
- 36:43But I'm I'm horribly, I'm horribly racist to him anyway.
- 36:47And he said something like, because he like, he knows a lot
- 36:54of like, fucking hockey players, like hit on me and stuff.
- 36:56And he was like, oh, what's like special about me?
- 36:58I was like, I don't know, I've never fucked a Mexican fella
- 36:59before. Just like bye.
- 37:05You should. Tell him about San Patricio's
- 37:11No, don't tell about Jesus Christ San.
- 37:15What are the guys called? So there's a bunch of Irish
- 37:18dudes that obviously they all came over.
- 37:23Here we go. Let's go for another little bit
- 37:25of history. So the the Irish guys who all
- 37:28landed in America when they were emigrating, obviously, and the
- 37:34Americans said here we're at war with Mexico, so get down there
- 37:41and fight the Mexicans. So this is where like Texas
- 37:44became a thing. And so so the Irish landed down
- 37:52to fight the Mexicans and they were like, hold on a minute,
- 37:58these sexy brown people are more like us, you know what I mean?
- 38:04Like, so they were like, these are all Catholic fucking, riding
- 38:09like rabbits, massive families fucking, you know, like, so now
- 38:16you've got a, a bunch of Irish people are like, you know what,
- 38:21let's jump. So they jumped over to the
- 38:23Mexicans and sat fighting the Americans.
- 38:26And if you see like, and you'll see a bunch of kind of famous
- 38:32Mexicans who kind of have a like a big Irish head and the ginger
- 38:39values. So like.
- 38:42I forget who. Who was there's a there's a big
- 38:45he's a basketball player, a football player, but he's one of
- 38:47the most famous fucking athletes in America right now.
- 38:51That's a Mexican from Mexico. Like not just like your guy,
- 38:55like second generation. This guy is like this
- 38:57generation, but he has a big ginger head on him and it's
- 39:02because he was from one of these Sam Patricios, who I'm
- 39:09definitely butchering that whatever Saint Patrick's
- 39:11Brigade. Anyways, So all the guys that
- 39:13jumped and they lived down to Mexico then and then just
- 39:18interbred with those big sexy ass Latinos, Latinas and yeah,
- 39:25breads bread, a bunch of half Irish, half Mexicans.
- 39:28So yeah. And.
- 39:30I'm about to make some. More that's.
- 39:34Jesus, no, you're about to spit more out into the fucking Jacks
- 39:37or oh. My God.
- 39:39Swallow it down or whatever. Is vulgar.
- 39:43He's taxpayer. Why are we talking about the
- 39:44Kennedys? Kennedys apparently, right?
- 39:47OK, so. You're going to get some Old El
- 39:53Paso into your tackle. Well, this is just payback for
- 40:02you making fun of me having a Slavic girlfriend.
- 40:04I don't make fun. I'm like, these are funny
- 40:06observations about Slavic women. These are also funny
- 40:13observations for me. Oh, OK, right.
- 40:21So I don't know where I'm going with this like.
- 40:26I'm like you have Jlo your your couples name would be like the
- 40:30manic and the Hispanic. No, I was going to say something
- 40:37really racist there, but I can't.
- 40:39I really can't. I I know.
- 40:43What I was going to, you know, he would love that, but I can't
- 40:49say that on on there. We would just, we would be.
- 40:51We cancelled so fast. OK, let's abandoned the Kennedy
- 40:55talk and just make more. More.
- 40:58Racial observation. Right.
- 41:00OK, so big John Kennedy, he did push himself like really hard.
- 41:08He ended up getting into Harvard, which was like pretty
- 41:11fucking impressive, like no easy feat.
- 41:14But because again, he was Irish Catholic, he was nobody had any
- 41:20time for him. Everyone kind of looked down on
- 41:22him. And even though he really did do
- 41:26all of the work to get there, like he didn't just like by his
- 41:32way in like, you know what I mean?
- 41:33Like like have daddy like do this doesn't work unless you
- 41:37watch the Righteous gemstones. Have you watched The Righteous
- 41:40Gemstones yet? No, but I know I get all
- 41:44references. I see your stories.
- 41:46Every time you. Off to tell, but yeah, so like
- 41:52he basically like he. So he had graduated everything
- 41:58that he wanted, but he still could not get a job because no
- 42:01one wanted to hire an Irish Catholic fully so, in my
- 42:04opinion. But again, Jack came through and
- 42:13then Joe became a State Bank examiner.
- 42:19So it wasn't the job that he imagined, but he and realized it
- 42:23was actually kind of the perfect job for him because when he was
- 42:26working at a State Bank, it meant that he could learn all of
- 42:29the like inner rules and workings of the banking
- 42:32industry. And this way he could make the
- 42:34rules kind of work for him. And at this point then he was
- 42:38kind of just done waiting for all these like wealthy Harvard
- 42:43fucking like frat Bros basically to invite him into the, like,
- 42:49the, like world class, The they call them upperclassmen, yeah,
- 42:53like the rich clubs, whatever. And like, no one like, yeah, so
- 43:00no one played by the rules back then, so why should he so.
- 43:04Well, what happened? I think what the important thing
- 43:08here is when he got that job as a state banking legislator or
- 43:17something along those lines, all these Dick heads from Harvard
- 43:22who kind of shown him they all became bankers.
- 43:26And yeah, but he wanted to become a banker.
- 43:31Well, he ended up getting a job where he was making rules for
- 43:34banking and he was kind of in charge of the bankers.
- 43:38So all these Wasps and fucking well to do Harvard guys now kind
- 43:44of relied on him. So he kind of was able to
- 43:47position himself so that he wanted to be one of them.
- 43:52They didn't want him to be one of them because he was a filthy
- 43:54Irish Catholic. But then he got positioned into
- 43:57a point where they needed to have him on site.
- 44:02So he was not all kind of positioned in an even better
- 44:06like he was. He was better off where he was
- 44:09than where he thought he should have been.
- 44:11Yeah. Yeah.
- 44:14It's fascinating stuff. It really is like, and this is
- 44:18all and I think a lot of this shit happened back then when you
- 44:22were a lot younger. Like this was all kind of like,
- 44:26I mean, at the age of 25, he was one of the youngest like bank
- 44:31presidents in America. So he essentially like had saved
- 44:39a bank from going under because he was just, he had that really
- 44:41good. I mean, granted it was his dad's
- 44:43bank, but like. Yeah, see, this is the this is
- 44:46the thing where we get to the kind of winks and nods.
- 44:49So like, he saved this bank from going under in his local
- 44:52community and everybody was like, yeah, Joe, he's our man.
- 44:58But he. Can't do it, No one will.
- 45:03Have great reference but his it was his father's bank and it now
- 45:11it all becomes questionable on whether this was all kind of
- 45:16performative and that the bank was never really in any danger.
- 45:22But was it just that they needed to make it look like he's this
- 45:29hero of the community again? Do you know what I mean?
- 45:31Like as you're talking about PJ telling George that you need the
- 45:34community to be on your site and lo and behold, they come up with
- 45:38this thing. It was his father's bank was
- 45:40going under and he saved it. And the community are all like,
- 45:43oh, thank God all of our loans and savings are safe now, thanks
- 45:47to Joe. Yeah.
- 45:49So basically he like he kind of had like local celebrity status
- 45:55after this. And then they like, but no one
- 46:01would treat him kind of like he was just working class trash
- 46:04anymore. And he basically was like,
- 46:08right, I'm getting all this money now.
- 46:10Everything is kind of going right for me.
- 46:11I need a wife. So he marries this woman called
- 46:15Rose, which is like, all right, here we go foreshadowing Rose
- 46:20Fitzgerald. So she was the daughter of
- 46:25Boston's mayor at the time, and they wanted to get married for
- 46:29years, but her dad kind of wouldn't allow it because he'd
- 46:32never thought that, like, Joe was good enough for her until he
- 46:35pulled this like, bank stunt. And he was like, fine, I guess
- 46:40you can get married like whatever.
- 46:44So Joe then marrying into her family kind of gave him like VIP
- 46:48access and just like basically he was able to kind of like
- 46:55we're in in the same circles as like the really important kind
- 46:58of families in America. And at this point then this is
- 47:03where Joe really kind of starts creating his empire.
- 47:07And he did this by using a little big business tactic
- 47:11called insider trading. Yeah.
- 47:14I I was. Dying to get into this insider
- 47:18trading thing that he gets. Into.
- 47:19Because this is. Love.
- 47:21It. Brilliant.
- 47:23So, so basically interior trading, so it's when you invest
- 47:29like a ton of money into a business because you heard like
- 47:32a secret tip like wink, wink might make you a lot of money.
- 47:36And it's, it's not like it wasn't completely illegal back
- 47:40then. So in 1919, Joe became a
- 47:44stockbroker, and because of a ton of insider trading
- 47:47information, he was able to make super profitable business moves
- 47:51that turned him into a fucking millionaire essentially
- 47:54overnight, right? So, for example, he'd gotten a
- 47:57tip to get into real estate during the Great Depression.
- 48:01So profit off the hurt and loss of others, basically.
- 48:05But he followed the tip and paid it off.
- 48:08Started doing insider trading. He was worth around $4 million
- 48:13when he started this, and then by the end of the Great
- 48:16Depression in 1939, he was worth over $180 million, which in
- 48:22today's money is like almost $4 billion.
- 48:27It's insane, obviously all the winks and nods that were
- 48:35obviously doing like all that, the insider trading and stuff,
- 48:38but it's he was told to pull his money out of his investments
- 48:43before the depression happened. So he got all his money out and
- 48:48then he was the only one left like, well, obviously all these
- 48:52guys who all were in the know, they had all their, their, their
- 48:57money pulled out when the stock market crashed and everybody
- 49:00lost their money. These guys all had their money
- 49:03and then just started buying real estate all over and, and LA
- 49:11basically it was, it was, I think it was, wasn't it
- 49:14Hollywood and. Yeah.
- 49:16Basically starting. To invest in like films and
- 49:21stuff like that then. Yeah, he became he became a film
- 49:23producer as well. Yeah, so in 1939, he was worth
- 49:27over 4 billion in today's money. So he uses this money than to
- 49:31build family homes on the waterfront of Cape Cod, which
- 49:35still exists today. It's called the Kennedy
- 49:38Compound. And he got this property
- 49:43specifically because it's sat across the water from all those
- 49:45Ivy League assholes who had basically shunned him from
- 49:49society. And so he was just basically
- 49:52like, yeah, fucking look at me. Look, I own this whole fucking
- 49:55place. Like, you're looking like,
- 49:57basically like The Great Gatsby, only like, it's jealousy and
- 50:01revenge. So his reputation as a fierce
- 50:05businessman even gave him access to the White House during the
- 50:09Great Depression. He used some of that windfall of
- 50:12cash to throw his support behind the presidential candidate at
- 50:15the time, FDR. So his donations and fundraisers were key to FDR
- 50:20getting the presidential crown. When he was elected president,
- 50:24he made sure to pay back Joe, but not money.
- 50:27Jode had enough money. He's like, I don't fucking need
- 50:29this. FDR gave Joe something that he
- 50:31wanted the most, which was political power.
- 50:34So he's given a position that essentially puts him in charge
- 50:38of the stock market. And one of the first orders of
- 50:42business Joe has is to make sure that no one can ever.
- 50:45Get a fortune. It's the best thing I've ever
- 50:49heard. It's so.
- 50:53Good. And so basically Joe has to make
- 50:57sure that no one can ever get a fortune like he did.
- 50:59So he actually helps to make insider trading illegal.
- 51:05It's so good. It's like him climbed up and.
- 51:11Then pull the ladder up behind them.
- 51:13Yeah, it was like no one else can catch me.
- 51:16Yeah, fuck you guys, I got here with this.
- 51:19But no one else gets to do it right?
- 51:21Just me. So around the same time then Joe
- 51:24and FDR, son, they create like a booze company right as
- 51:29prohibition is ending. Like fucking surprise, surprise.
- 51:32It's like, Oh my God, what? Like, you know, we didn't even
- 51:35think, oh, here's some fucking whiskey.
- 51:36Like literally just anything that he finger in all of the
- 51:40pies, like literally was our Joe.
- 51:42He just knew where to put his money, when to put that money
- 51:46there. He was a fucking genius when it
- 51:48came to money. So now that he had all of this
- 51:51money and this power and his political dreams were starting
- 51:53to come true, he decided to expand his portfolio.
- 51:57And this time it was in Hollywood maybe.
- 52:02So Joe started convincing investors to buy Hollywood
- 52:06studios that were in trouble. And he was also getting advice
- 52:10to giving advice to all these studios on how to stay open and
- 52:14to be profitable. So Joe became like a kind of
- 52:19almost like a financial advisor in Hollywood in kind of the
- 52:23early days. And then because he's fucking a
- 52:28scumbag, he set his sights on the most famous actress at that
- 52:31time, which was Gloria Swanson. Now, just like everyone in town,
- 52:36Gloria was kind of depending on advice from Joe to help with her
- 52:40production company. And then before, you know, the
- 52:42two of them, there were shagging all around the place.
- 52:46Joe uses power and influence to get Gloria's husband a job in
- 52:51Europe. He was like, yeah, you're up, go
- 52:52on, see you later, fucking fuck off.
- 52:55And then the two of them were just walking around like
- 52:57boyfriend and girlfriend. Like, the dude was gone.
- 52:59Like, nobody fucking knew. So Joe then would get
- 53:04immediately involved in Gloria's, like, movie career.
- 53:09So he would convince her to like use all of her money and go into
- 53:12debt to star in this really expensive, unique movie that no
- 53:16one in Hollywood would actually touch.
- 53:20But again, he was like the fucking money genius, wasn't he?
- 53:22So she was like, I'll do anything you say like no, she
- 53:25would have said it like I'll do anything you say, because that's
- 53:28how they all talked back then. Oh, Joe, of course, I'll take
- 53:32this acting job that you have to just said I love you.
- 53:37That's. Pretty good.
- 53:40They're just like everyone says that to me.
- 53:42So like they there was this old documentary that Elise and
- 53:46Mickey were watching and it's the old, the old timey narration
- 53:50voice you see. And first they they hoist up the
- 53:53crane by using and I was given the voice and they're just like,
- 53:55how do you do that? That's an old timey.
- 54:00I have people that would talk like this and be very astonished
- 54:02of a young white Irish lady with a brown Mexican ice skater who
- 54:09what is this? What a scoop.
- 54:12That's because the answer the sallow skin for Mexican God and
- 54:17the sad brown eyes of a cow. We've never heard the likes
- 54:21before, mixing vanilla and caramel and one ice cream bowl.
- 54:28This is it folks. This is the end.
- 54:31The white Irish. He's going to love, but this,
- 54:39this whole episode is about him. It's feeds his little Mexican
- 54:43ego. Yeah.
- 54:44So basically Gloria takes this movie and pretty fucking soon
- 54:50into production, they're $11 million over budget.
- 54:55And she's like, So what happened?
- 54:57Wow, $11 million over budget. And he's just like, frankly, my
- 55:00dear fucking Sia just leaves her.
- 55:06Yeah, he just gets up and goes. He just want no like that.
- 55:09That's literally how the story went.
- 55:10She was just like, you have to fucking help me.
- 55:12I don't know what the fuck to do.
- 55:13He gets up like this is this is exactly what happened.
- 55:17He looks her dad in her face, cranes around, grabs his coat,
- 55:22which is a kid walks out after ruining this woman's life.
- 55:25And then obviously because she was caught up in that whole,
- 55:27like, I don't know if you could call it like a scandal or
- 55:30whatever, but she was caught up in the whole thing and he just
- 55:34walked out. And her husband, Her husband
- 55:38apparently was. Yeah, he left her about.
- 55:41It and he wrote her a letter and he was like, you've been running
- 55:44all around town you big fucking whore with that Kennedy fella so
- 55:49fuck off. So she had nothing, no husband,
- 55:53no income. Her career was down the toilet
- 55:56and he was just like, I'm going back home to Rose and my nine
- 55:59children. See you later.
- 56:02Like fucking typical Irish cunt of a man like and she.
- 56:08Yeah. All right, fucking all right.
- 56:11Can we get back to? Making fun of Mexicans.
- 56:13Please what am I doing? I'm.
- 56:19Talking about my dad saw projection.
- 56:22Sorry. So Joe Joe.
- 56:28Then he ended up just going back home and he was like, Rose, I
- 56:32love it. See, And then this point the
- 56:35Kennedy kids, they're just fucking rich kids.
- 56:37They're just living life. They're playing sports,
- 56:39partying, like doing whatever. And then Joe did kind of let
- 56:43them have their fun. Like what He also like, he's
- 56:47like, this isn't a fucking daycare.
- 56:49Like so he had like expectations of them.
- 56:53They needed to marry the right people, prepare for public life.
- 56:57And then most importantly, know how to present themselves as
- 57:02Kennedys. So it would start at like, the
- 57:05family dinner table. So apparently the Kennedys, they
- 57:08weren't allowed, like small talk was not allowed.
- 57:13It would have. You would have to talk about
- 57:14religion or politics or like just meaningful things.
- 57:20And like, I can just imagine him turning and being like, what do
- 57:23you think of the state of the US government?
- 57:25And he's like, I don't know, I'm 6.
- 57:26Like just that's how like Howard, he was on them because
- 57:31apparently like that's how hard PJ was on him.
- 57:34And like he wanted to make sure everyone was like super
- 57:37successful And so basically. In.
- 57:41Saying all this not, not to coach off, just just to get in
- 57:46here. Like sometimes when we talk
- 57:48about like like our serial killer buddies and stuff like
- 57:54that, that like their parents, they didn't have overbearing
- 57:57parents and stuff like that. But oh was he was the the
- 58:03obviously the patriarch of the family and he was very strict on
- 58:11like what what not very strict, but like he was, he wanted a lot
- 58:16from these kids and he made sure they knew that he wanted a lot
- 58:20from these kids and there was high expectations of them both
- 58:24the kids adored him as well. Like this wasn't like he was.
- 58:29He wasn't. Abusive, I think it was roles.
- 58:32Roles was the disciplinarian. Yeah, it was pointed out on one
- 58:36of the, eh, one of the things I was looking up that when you
- 58:41look at any of the pictures of the parents and the kids, if you
- 58:47ever see like the, the pictures of the kids with joy, they're
- 58:52all swinging out of them. Like they adored, they were
- 58:56loving them. And I need pictures of roles and
- 58:58the kids, the kids are all kind of like a little bit away from
- 59:02our storm fest. So like, I think she was the
- 59:04disciplinarian. The father had like Joe Senior
- 59:08had very high expectations of what he wanted from the kids,
- 59:11but he wasn't a harsh man. He wasn't like, you know, he
- 59:14didn't beat the kids or anything like that.
- 59:16He was and I don't think. PJ was like that either, like I
- 59:20think he was. Very no, I, I, yes, I yeah.
- 59:23I don't think the kids had like what we would say is like a
- 59:28rough upbringing, but I think there was the if, if anything,
- 59:32it was kind of just there was a weight of expectation on these
- 59:35kids. So when we we obviously talk
- 59:37about roles there like, and how like she was a partier, but
- 59:43like, yeah, did they call that fairly, fairly swift?
- 59:47The boys? Yeah, of course the boys were.
- 59:49But I think I think Joe was guys, you can do what you want
- 59:55as long as you succeed. Yeah.
- 59:58And you need like. So there's the expectations
- 1:00:01like. I think it was drilled into all
- 1:00:04of these boys that Harvard was the goal and to be wealthy,
- 1:00:09successful and power was the goal.
- 1:00:15I think ultimate power was what Joe wanted for for his kids and
- 1:00:20from his kids. Yeah, and like it's, it's even
- 1:00:25like it was that way up until and like again, it's like it's a
- 1:00:28really sad thing. Like, so the mother rose like
- 1:00:31outlived sweater, outlived all of them.
- 1:00:34And then Joe, like poor Joe lived long enough to see like
- 1:00:39his three, three kids die, which is is really fucking sad.
- 1:00:46But yeah, I think like they did, they did feel a pressure to, I
- 1:00:51guess, like, make him proud. Not in the sense that they're
- 1:00:53just like, oh, no, geez, my dad's going to kill me.
- 1:00:56But it was just more like they wanted to because he was a good
- 1:00:59man and he was like, you know what I mean?
- 1:01:01I mean, maybe he wasn't a good man morally, but he was good to
- 1:01:04them and they wanted to make him proud.
- 1:01:07So moving on then a little bit from Joe.
- 1:01:11If there's one Kennedy that you've heard about the most,
- 1:01:14it's likely JFK. So John Fitzgerald Kennedy was
- 1:01:18born May 29th, 1917. He was a second eldest son and
- 1:01:24he had he had a really bad kind of childhood.
- 1:01:29He was one of those kids that was like constantly sick with
- 1:01:32like everything. And.
- 1:01:35Always something wrong. But Despite that, he as he grew
- 1:01:37up then he was like smart. He's really popular.
- 1:01:40He was athletic. He did go on to get into Harvard
- 1:01:45and then just like his dad. Then in 1940, he graduated with
- 1:01:50honors. But after graduating he went
- 1:01:53straight into the Navy. No, this man is a fucking.
- 1:01:58I didn't know this until I was actually researching for.
- 1:02:02This story. Insane like so?
- 1:02:05Cool. So.
- 1:02:07Cool like. Literally.
- 1:02:09Fucking badass. Badass.
- 1:02:11He's so fucking cool, right? And I like, I always like, I
- 1:02:14kind of, I always like John. Like I think there was always
- 1:02:17like, there's something charming about him, like inspire me.
- 1:02:21Yeah. But like, it was always kind of
- 1:02:23like, yeah, you know, whatever. And then like they had again, I
- 1:02:25know, just so you haven't watched The Crown and I keep
- 1:02:27pushing you to watch The Crown, but they have.
- 1:02:33Nonsense. I know, but they have Michael C
- 1:02:36Hall playing John in one episode and he was incredible.
- 1:02:43Like just fucking very much painted him out to be this like
- 1:02:47bumbling jock kind of character, which I think to an extent like
- 1:02:54he was. So that mostly the episode kind
- 1:02:56of like follows the fact that like like Queen Elizabeth is
- 1:03:01like jealous of Jackie O and whatever the fuck what like who
- 1:03:05knows how true that is? But anyway, it is it is well
- 1:03:07worth the watch because the cover is like they do visit the
- 1:03:10White House and he doesn't follow any of the protocol that
- 1:03:15you're supposed to. So when you're when I don't know
- 1:03:17if it's the same now, but back in that time I would have been
- 1:03:21the 60s. When you're meeting royalty,
- 1:03:25there's like a very they brief you.
- 1:03:27So there's a very specific like curtsy that you have to do.
- 1:03:30You can't call her like a certain.
- 1:03:32You have to call her a certain. I don't know what it is.
- 1:03:34But anyway, he just didn't listen.
- 1:03:38Like he listened, but then he just come pick all completely
- 1:03:41went out of his head when he was meeting her and he was just
- 1:03:44like, oh, image the like just shook her hand and she was just
- 1:03:48kind of like, OK, like didn't say anything.
- 1:03:50And then apparently like Jackie was like, so embarrassed by it.
- 1:03:53And yeah, but it's like a it's a whole thing.
- 1:03:56I just think he's really funny. I just think he's.
- 1:03:57Just kind of. Yeah.
- 1:03:59Well, he's he's a fucking he's a.
- 1:04:03First of all, the most powerful man in the world and he's of
- 1:04:07Irish descent. If the Queen had been even came
- 1:04:10over to the fucking White House and I was the president.
- 1:04:14I'd be like you. Bowed down to me.
- 1:04:15You fucking how'd? You get now, you pretty cunt.
- 1:04:20Sausage fingers. If sausage fingers came to my
- 1:04:22house and expected me fucking and expected me to courtesy to
- 1:04:26him, he can fuck off himself. We all shake down the one hole
- 1:04:29in this house. Yeah, fucking Protestant
- 1:04:31bastard. Yeah, dirty rotten fucking all.
- 1:04:34Right. Yes, OK.
- 1:04:40Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
- 1:04:43No, I agree with you. I agree.
- 1:04:45With you to anybody who's who is.
- 1:04:47Listening to this, which is is nobody, there's one Mexican man
- 1:04:51listening to this with a tear rolling down his fucking cheek.
- 1:04:53But if there is anyone out there listening to this and they hear
- 1:04:57me getting unhinged about the, eh, English royal family, just
- 1:05:06know, yeah, these are horrible, horrible people.
- 1:05:11Because. They're.
- 1:05:12Basically. They're.
- 1:05:14Yes. All of the crimes that the Nazis
- 1:05:18have committed, the English have done them and they have been
- 1:05:20doing them around the world for fucking years and years and
- 1:05:23years and years. But it's.
- 1:05:23Just plus these are kind of Nazis anyways because they're
- 1:05:26all German. Like let's, let's call a
- 1:05:28fucking. German fucking Austrian, the
- 1:05:31Greek they all like Philip was German Prince Philip and then
- 1:05:36she married him Greeks and they were first cousins he.
- 1:05:38Was a Greek, he was. He grew up in German.
- 1:05:40Yeah, but he of German descent. Yeah.
- 1:05:43And then, yeah, they're first cousins.
- 1:05:46The king that I told you about that you didn't believe me
- 1:05:48about, that was the king and then advocated to go marry that
- 1:05:51fucking prostitute Wallace Simpson.
- 1:05:53And then she was shagging s s soldiers at the time, and then
- 1:05:56he got close with fucking. Anyway, we'll do a whole episode
- 1:05:59on that fucking Hitler fucking. Castle Hillbillies, that's all.
- 1:06:03Yeah, once you Castle Hillbillies.
- 1:06:05So anyway, so this story is fucking cool right?
- 1:06:11So after graduating and John went on to serve in World War 2
- 1:06:15and in August of 1943 he was captain of a patrol boat that
- 1:06:20was intercepting Japanese warships.
- 1:06:23At 2:00 AM one night while everyone else was sleeping, he
- 1:06:26noticed another boat like coming towards them.
- 1:06:29At first he thought it was another American patrol boat,
- 1:06:32but pretty soon he realized it was a massive Japanese destroyer
- 1:06:35coming straight at them at almost 50 miles an hour.
- 1:06:38And he's like, but before he could do anything or wake
- 1:06:41anything, wake anybody up, that Japanese destroyer sliced the
- 1:06:47ship that him and his crew were on in half.
- 1:06:50Just. Split this fucking boat in half,
- 1:06:53right? And John and their surviving
- 1:06:57soldiers, I think there was like 11 survivors on that whole
- 1:07:01fucking boat and they were just holding on for dear life to like
- 1:07:05the wreckage and floating in the fucking middle of the ocean.
- 1:07:08Now here's where everything might have ended for John and
- 1:07:13the other survivors, but John just turns into a fucking
- 1:07:17dolphin. Dolphin.
- 1:07:19Like. He's a dolphin.
- 1:07:21That's that's. You know how many times I've
- 1:07:23heard him? Described as a dolphin in this
- 1:07:26whole fucking thing. He's so slipping.
- 1:07:31What's that movie where it's like, it's some, it's some Judd
- 1:07:34Apatow movie, some dumb movie where it's like the guy and he's
- 1:07:38like Flipper, but he's like not like.
- 1:07:42Are you sure it's not an Adam Sandler movie?
- 1:07:4451st dates and yeah. That's what it is.
- 1:07:47That's what it is. Rob Schneider.
- 1:07:49Yes, yeah, that's what it is. Sorry, I just always mix that
- 1:07:52universe up, but yeah. Also in The SpongeBob Movie in
- 1:07:59In the SpongeBob Movie, David Hasselhoff.
- 1:08:04No, but that's like we're we're laughing about it, but that's
- 1:08:07literally what what happened, right?
- 1:08:09So. He, he apparently swam.
- 1:08:12He, he he drags 2 soldiers. Yeah, or two, Yeah, two naval
- 1:08:17officers, more than two. But like he, they all did swim.
- 1:08:21But he he physically held two men.
- 1:08:26Carried them by their life jackets.
- 1:08:29Yeah. Could 2 separate or I'll do it,
- 1:08:31I'll do it, I'll do it. Two islands.
- 1:08:33No, it's not one island, two islands.
- 1:08:38You're telling me there's two islands?
- 1:08:41Anyway, so right, Let me get So John had been a championship
- 1:08:51swimmer when he was at Harvard, and he swam with two wounded
- 1:08:56soldiers, essentially carrying them by their life jackets, and
- 1:09:00swam hours in the Pacific Ocean, finally making it.
- 1:09:05He swam with two men for hours till he met, till they reached
- 1:09:11land. But the problem was there, this
- 1:09:15was a deserted island with no food, no water.
- 1:09:18Most of his men were injured at that point and exhausted.
- 1:09:21And John was just like, Nah, spots another fucking island in
- 1:09:26the distance and he's like worth the fucking shot.
- 1:09:28This man swims again. She wouldn't know their fucking
- 1:09:33island right with these men. And then after like 4 days with
- 1:09:40no food and no water, the 11 survivors are so stoked to find
- 1:09:44out they're actually like coconuts for them to eat on the
- 1:09:47second island. But JFK, he's just still in like
- 1:09:50fucking like he's in the zone still.
- 1:09:52And he's just like, right, well, we've got injured fucking men
- 1:09:55here that like, we can't take care of like, what the fuck's
- 1:09:57going to happen? So John then swims again.
- 1:10:01He swims again to another island.
- 1:10:04And this one is called Naru. And thankfully the locals living
- 1:10:08there, they're pretty friendly. They are still typically in
- 1:10:11enemy territory. But the these island people had
- 1:10:15no, no involvement kind of whatsoever.
- 1:10:17They were just like this white man just shows up on the island
- 1:10:22swum here like what the fuck. But he still has these are these
- 1:10:28are Polynesian islands, aren't they?
- 1:10:29So like they're out near New Zealand is kind of the nearest.
- 1:10:35Kind of like main place. And so they're they're friendly,
- 1:10:39whatever, but he's still like he has to keep kind of like a low,
- 1:10:42a low profile with this, but he's really polite, He's really
- 1:10:46nice. He asks for food supplies and
- 1:10:50then boats so they can like make it out of there.
- 1:10:53So John, this is fucking crazy, right?
- 1:10:56John takes a coconut, right? It sounds fake.
- 1:11:02It doesn't sound like a real. Oh, it is it.
- 1:11:04It does sound. And pardon this poem, it does
- 1:11:07sound nuts, but this is a fantastic story.
- 1:11:12So basically, he pulls. He pulls his genius fucking
- 1:11:16move, takes a coconut and carried carves in a coded
- 1:11:20message, right, And it's basically like it says kind of
- 1:11:26narrow island 11 alive needs small boat Kennedy, right.
- 1:11:30That's that's exactly what it said straight to the point.
- 1:11:33And then they just wait. He gives it to one of the
- 1:11:36locals. The locals come back then after,
- 1:11:40like, a day or so with a bunch of fucking food and fresh water
- 1:11:45and supplies, and then they're rescued after six fucking days
- 1:11:48being stranded. He saved all of these fucking
- 1:11:51people. Just like, yeah, like, that's
- 1:11:54fucking incredible. Like, it's insane.
- 1:11:56And I had no idea that that this had happened until I was, like,
- 1:11:59actually looking into it. And I was just like Jesus.
- 1:12:02Christ, me too. I was, I was looking at and if
- 1:12:04if you see the pictures of him in the Oval Office, then he has
- 1:12:11the coconut is like, so he saved the coconut or someone brought
- 1:12:16getting the coconut and he has it in a glass Dome and he it got
- 1:12:20made into a paperweight and it was his paperweight on his desk
- 1:12:24in the Oval Office was the coconut that he he used to save
- 1:12:28the guys. So he as well, like he was
- 1:12:31supposed to just go on and do different kind of thing.
- 1:12:35He wasn't. He had an older brother who was
- 1:12:38in line to be president. Like he was running for
- 1:12:40president and then he he had passed away.
- 1:12:43So then it kind of got handed straight down to John.
- 1:12:46How long we? We should really get into how
- 1:12:50his brother passed away as well. So Joe is in a.
- 1:12:54Plane crash in 19. Yeah, but the fascinating thing
- 1:12:58about this is, right, first of all, when we talk about JFK and
- 1:13:03how he is a dolphin man, he is basically fucking dead.
- 1:13:07And the, the American Irish, Jason Momoa, he shouldn't have
- 1:13:11gone to war because he was exempt from war because of, as
- 1:13:16you said, his, he had illnesses as a child.
- 1:13:19But he, he said he wanted to go and join the Navy.
- 1:13:24And he went and joined the Navy because there's something also
- 1:13:27in these Kennedys that they have the ambition and the drive to be
- 1:13:33rich and powerful, but they also have this weird that they're
- 1:13:36riddled with ADHD. I'm convinced of it, but they
- 1:13:40they have this kind of need to do the dangerous thing like they
- 1:13:48can't just live a comfortable life.
- 1:13:51They have to be in fucking the peril or there has to be some
- 1:13:56excitement going on in their life.
- 1:13:58And JFK is older brother. Absolutely yeah, true secrets is
- 1:14:03exactly it. Yeah.
- 1:14:05So JFK is older brother he. Was also in the Army, yeah.
- 1:14:12And he so we still don't know what exactly happened in that
- 1:14:19playing. Gradually the government didn't
- 1:14:21release what had happened and how it went down.
- 1:14:24Like we probably will never fucking know.
- 1:14:27But basically he let me go into it a little bit.
- 1:14:32I've got like a couple of notes just saying that it it was never
- 1:14:36kind of discussed or anything like that, why it happened.
- 1:14:41It just the plane went down when he was in the Army in 1944 and
- 1:14:45that was it. No, yes.
- 1:14:47So the the idea of this this this particular plane was so by
- 1:14:54the way as well, Joe had had done enough missions that he
- 1:14:57could have went home, but he said he wants to stay.
- 1:15:01He wants to stay on. And he said this mission in
- 1:15:04particular he wants to do, and he was told that this mission
- 1:15:07was going to be an extremely dangerous mission.
- 1:15:10And there was a plane that was going to be a remote control
- 1:15:14plane and it was filled with explosives and it was to bomb a
- 1:15:24Nazi stronghold in France. So if they were in England and
- 1:15:30they get into this plane, this plane has to be manned and it
- 1:15:33gets so far and then they release this remote control,
- 1:15:39basically a drone basically very early kind of days.
- 1:15:44But you they had to physically drive this plane into the sky to
- 1:15:49get it over where it needs to be before they can remote control
- 1:15:52user. And obviously with this being a
- 1:15:57perilous mission, there was a high risk.
- 1:16:00And Joe was told that he was told he didn't have to do the
- 1:16:03mission, what he wanted to do the mission.
- 1:16:05And yeah, as you say, there's not much information kind of
- 1:16:11divulged about order than the plane got into the air and
- 1:16:15somewhere over. Yeah, yeah, some somewhere over
- 1:16:20the sea between England and France and an explosion happened
- 1:16:23and the plane went down and that was it, Yeah.
- 1:16:26And Joel was never to be seen. Never to be seen, nobody
- 1:16:31recovered, nothing like that. So then automatically the kind
- 1:16:34of the throne and you could say goes to John, who was just 27 at
- 1:16:39the time. And I will like I've never in my
- 1:16:43life anything close to what JFK did before I was 27.
- 1:16:50Jesus fucking Christ. Like they all have such ambition
- 1:16:55and accomplished so much at such young ages.
- 1:16:58And I'll get more into that little bit later.
- 1:17:02The actual like they called to kind of curse side of it and
- 1:17:08which dates back to PJ. But like, anyway, I'll keep
- 1:17:11going with this from now on. So basically he's he's the
- 1:17:15oldest boy now and he's got all the pressure on him and there is
- 1:17:21like so growing up, Rose Kennedy, the mom had always said
- 1:17:27to whom much is given much is expected, right, which is a
- 1:17:32fucking that's a lot of pressure to live up to as a fucking kid.
- 1:17:37But anyway, after Joe Junior died, both Mr. and Misses
- 1:17:41Kennedy were expecting fucking huge things from JFK.
- 1:17:45They were expecting him to be like his older brother.
- 1:17:47But suddenly all the dreams that they'd had for their oldest son
- 1:17:50just transferred right on down to to John.
- 1:17:54So in 1952, John, now 35, ran for Senate.
- 1:18:00And what's crazy is that he was considered an underdog at the
- 1:18:03time. He was also considered a man of
- 1:18:05the people, which obviously he represented progress and hope,
- 1:18:10and it was kind of a threat to the existing politicians.
- 1:18:13So everyone was really shocked when he actually won.
- 1:18:16And this really put the political spotlight off JFK for
- 1:18:19the first time. But he was this like, was this
- 1:18:23enough for dirty? Of course not.
- 1:18:25Wasn't John was Joe was still just like, Nah, you have to do
- 1:18:29more than this. You have to be fucking the
- 1:18:30greatest president of all time, basically.
- 1:18:33So the family decided that in 1960, he was going to run for
- 1:18:39president and not just be Senate, even though, like, I
- 1:18:42think John would have been happy himself to stay in the Senate.
- 1:18:48Like, he was just like, no, that's not enough.
- 1:18:51So even though JFK had been in Congress for 14 years at this
- 1:18:55point, he wasn't really seen as much of A threat going into the
- 1:18:58presidential election. Apparently, he was most known
- 1:19:01for being a witty Playboy more than anything else, so he wasn't
- 1:19:07really taken seriously. JFK got married in 1953 to
- 1:19:11Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Jackie O, as most people know
- 1:19:16her as. And they were kind of like a
- 1:19:18really hot like it couple who ate sheet metal together, which
- 1:19:26does that mean that I keep seeing going around?
- 1:19:30But Jackie was kind of seen as this cool like fashion icon
- 1:19:34girl. Like again, we could kind of
- 1:19:36like liken her to how Rose Kennedy was seen the Paris
- 1:19:43Hilton kind of overtime or whatever.
- 1:19:46And then, yeah, they were like a.
- 1:19:49Really. I just seen recently that there
- 1:19:51is a there is a movie called Jackie.
- 1:19:57Yeah, it was in the back of my head, but I was at Hathaway and
- 1:20:01Hathaway. Plays with Hathaway.
- 1:20:03Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:20:05And I think I'd be very interested in that, but I didn't
- 1:20:09know it existed until just the other night.
- 1:20:12Yeah, Jackie's life in general is, is actually really
- 1:20:15interesting. And again, we could do a whole
- 1:20:17fucking episode on her. She was like basically BPD
- 1:20:21before BPD existed. So she had a lot kind of going
- 1:20:25on, but. Yeah, her life is like pretty
- 1:20:28fucked up. Who's?
- 1:20:29BPD. Borderline personality disorder.
- 1:20:34I have BPD. Oh, I tell your I'm a person
- 1:20:37like I tell her. It's like, hey I'll.
- 1:20:39See. Yeah, I know, my friend.
- 1:20:40BP personality disorder. But yeah, anyway, so some claim
- 1:20:45that this is he would, he would just shag around.
- 1:20:49And then Jackie kind of like knew about it.
- 1:20:51She hated it, but she was just like, well, what else am I going
- 1:20:53to fucking do? He's the president of the United
- 1:20:55States, right? So again, well, he's going to be
- 1:20:59the president. Nobody thought he would get in
- 1:21:01because he's they still had that Irish Catholic skepticism.
- 1:21:05They're just like, no, there's no fucking way that there's
- 1:21:07going to be a Mick in the White House.
- 1:21:09Like that's fucking ridiculous. Like a Senate is one thing, but
- 1:21:12like to lead the fucking like greatest country in the world,
- 1:21:15you're going to have a fucking drunken Irish like, you know,
- 1:21:18like basically in the White House anyone by a fucking.
- 1:21:25Yeah. I don't think they, yeah, I
- 1:21:28think they underestimate the fact that America in like just
- 1:21:34maybe less than 100 years had like become like, they're
- 1:21:43probably more Irish people in America than Ireland at that
- 1:21:48stage. And I mean that by like people
- 1:21:51of like expats and people of Irish ancestry.
- 1:21:54So, like, it was a big deal to have an Irish, an Irish man in
- 1:22:03there. But also the fact that he was
- 1:22:05Catholic, he appealed to to a lot more than just the Irish,
- 1:22:13like anyone who was Catholic then was saw him as the man
- 1:22:16especially as well, like anyone. But even like, even if you think
- 1:22:20you think about like there is, there is a lot of like the the
- 1:22:24the likes of the Polish and the the the order, the other whites
- 1:22:30that would that would be Catholic.
- 1:22:33You've got Italians even went from, even though Italians
- 1:22:37aren't white at that, still at that stage they're not, I think.
- 1:22:42They still had like a prejudice against the Irish.
- 1:22:44They still didn't really didn't like the Irish at this time.
- 1:22:46But like, it was a Catholic thing.
- 1:22:49You know what? I mean, it was.
- 1:22:50Better than having like a fucking like, yeah.
- 1:22:54Yeah. So it's amazing.
- 1:22:55And even and when you even see like the the fundamentalist
- 1:23:00Christians and stuff like that, they're still kind of like in
- 1:23:03America, they're still kind of see Catholicism as oh, that's,
- 1:23:07that is a form of old Christianity.
- 1:23:12So they're like, OK, so it's it's closer to us than, you
- 1:23:15know, like you, you won't see a Muslim president in a long time
- 1:23:19because it's so fucking it. It's so different, like and you.
- 1:23:22Can see people freaking the fuck out about Mandani.
- 1:23:26Mandani, Yeah. Being mayor of New York and it's
- 1:23:30like it's insane the reaction that's getting and there's
- 1:23:33people being like Oh well y'all voted for him, don't come down
- 1:23:36here to Nashville. It's like fucking sorry like
- 1:23:40Everly with your 3 kids, Braxton Broxton and fucking hits like
- 1:23:46nobody wants to move to fucking Nashville.
- 1:23:50Is that Braxton Hicks pun? Yeah, that's what they name
- 1:23:56their kids, like Braxton Broxton Higgs.
- 1:24:00Like come. Here, like fucking fuck off,
- 1:24:04like and like the great S like they're you're all you all just
- 1:24:07shot like I have some fucking sexy cousins, right.
- 1:24:10I do like I'm not going to fucking get up on one of them
- 1:24:14just because I'm like keeping in the family.
- 1:24:16Like if the Lord can lead you to it, the Lord can lead you
- 1:24:19through it. Like half a dozen of one.
- 1:24:21Stick to the others. So how did we get here?
- 1:24:26I don't know. Let me talk, let me cook.
- 1:24:29So basically at this time then for the presidential run, JFK
- 1:24:34was up against Nixon like I am not.
- 1:24:37I am not a criminal, Agnew. Not going to pay.
- 1:24:50So basically Nixon, I mean, he wasn't really beating Kennedy in
- 1:24:57the beauty contest part of the presidential election really,
- 1:25:01was he? He was just a fucking Jelly old
- 1:25:03man Kennedy. The word Jelly was on the tip of
- 1:25:07my tongue before you said. The jail and then like Kennedy
- 1:25:12as well was like he was funny like so he would make these
- 1:25:14jokes all the time about like his dad paying for the votes and
- 1:25:20like his like literally he was just like, where is that the
- 1:25:24exact quote I have here? Hang on, I've just received the
- 1:25:28following wire from my generous daddy.
- 1:25:31Dear Jack jump by a single vote more than necessary.
- 1:25:35I'll only pay for a landslide. Like basically like he was just
- 1:25:40kind of joking about the whole time and but still it wasn't.
- 1:25:43It was still a really close kind of call, but he did win.
- 1:25:49A lot of people did kind of vote for him because he was young.
- 1:25:51I would vote for the hot one. That makes sense.
- 1:25:53Like honestly, like I am loving the silver.
- 1:25:58Kind of like clips and stuff from the mayoral election in New
- 1:26:02York. The guy who was up against.
- 1:26:05Just. Because he's fucking mental.
- 1:26:08But like, yeah, I just you're going to go for the hot 1.
- 1:26:12I wouldn't care if he was just like, we should fucking bring
- 1:26:15back racism. Might be like, yes daddy, we
- 1:26:18should bring back racism. I feel like in a way you kind
- 1:26:23of. Have brought back racism a.
- 1:26:25Little bit, little bit. I'm just going to like literally
- 1:26:28when I'm shagging my boyfriend now, I'm just going to say
- 1:26:30really racist things to him. Like during actually, that's a
- 1:26:35funny story, right? So my one of my my really good
- 1:26:37friends is a black dude and Hispanic and Native American.
- 1:26:40He's got it all going on right. But he has this thing for
- 1:26:46fucking girls and like making them say the N word while he's
- 1:26:50fucking them. And I was like, do they actually
- 1:26:54say it? And he was just like, you'd be
- 1:26:56surprised how fucking willing and excited some women are to
- 1:27:01say it. If you're let's say a one word,
- 1:27:05you're not allowed to say that's.
- 1:27:08Yeah, I mean they. Give him full permission.
- 1:27:12Yeah, just like, yeah, like fucking bounce on my Dick and
- 1:27:15call me a expletive. Like like truly.
- 1:27:20And they do it. And he's just like, I'm like,
- 1:27:21and you, you like it. And he's like, yeah, fucking
- 1:27:24love it. It's like, it's not humiliating
- 1:27:26for me. It's humiliating for them to
- 1:27:29like fucking. Say this horrible shit.
- 1:27:33I think it's like my. If I get that pass, I'm gonna
- 1:27:37fucking say it with the hard or. You you can have any hole you
- 1:27:42want as long as I get that hard or that's all I want.
- 1:27:44That's all I'm here for. I think it's unfair to as Irish
- 1:27:51people where we don't have the pass.
- 1:27:54It's like we didn't do it actually.
- 1:27:56Or she told me before that so we have a mutual friend or she knew
- 1:28:01we know from like wrestling and stuff.
- 1:28:03So he was telling me like in his days when he used to work in the
- 1:28:06call center, some English guy called him a potato N word.
- 1:28:11That's that's funny. That's inventive.
- 1:28:13That's hilarious. And he said I can't even be mad
- 1:28:16at that because like, that's so fucking creative.
- 1:28:20And he was like a Brit who's creative.
- 1:28:22I have to give it to him. I was just like, you know?
- 1:28:25What? Yeah.
- 1:28:26I am a potato N word. Yeah.
- 1:28:30And I've heard the phrase sport monkey.
- 1:28:34Like I just, I'll allow that. Someone calls me a sport monkey,
- 1:28:39I'll be like, yeah. That's pretty good, but for?
- 1:28:41Some reason that sounds worse I. Don't know.
- 1:28:45Yeah. I'll take it.
- 1:28:46But like, I don't mind. I've, I've been in there.
- 1:28:52I've, I've been in England before and had someone call me a
- 1:28:57Mick because of my accent and it's a funny thing to be like
- 1:29:03to, to be racially kind of abused but also being white so
- 1:29:11like. Yeah, I I don't think it exists.
- 1:29:14I just I can't, I can't find any any slur towards someone who's
- 1:29:21white offense like I just can't and like my.
- 1:29:24Brother lives in New York. Well, like I know.
- 1:29:26But the first? Move to new.
- 1:29:28York, because it's a Brit that's saying it to me, but it's he
- 1:29:33could say any, well, he could say anything to me.
- 1:29:36If he called me a punt, I'd be as offended as if he's calling
- 1:29:40me a Mick. Like it's, you know, you know
- 1:29:42what I mean? It's just because you're a Brit
- 1:29:44and you're caught, you're you're calling me names.
- 1:29:46But like, I, I am, It's funny because I was wrestling over in,
- 1:29:53in England once and there was a bunch of us, a bunch of Irish
- 1:29:57guys and a big, a big black Canadian fella called Drew Onyx.
- 1:30:05Lovely man, Yeah, tall, very like a big presence, booming
- 1:30:14voice, but just a very jovial, friendly man.
- 1:30:17And we found ourselves wandering around.
- 1:30:20I ever somewhere in London, we were wandering around.
- 1:30:23We were just trying to find a pub.
- 1:30:24And of course we wandered in to A to the wrong pub and you know,
- 1:30:30all these guys with fucking bald heads and bulldog tattoos that
- 1:30:35looks like they were fucking the tattoo artist was Michael J Fox.
- 1:30:39Like just fucking he's these fucking stereotypical fucking
- 1:30:46England first kind of guys, right?
- 1:30:48And you have to like this was probably the mid 2000s, early to
- 1:30:54mid 2000s, like so where we we were, we got into the pub and we
- 1:31:01know us like that every or also there's there's a guy there
- 1:31:06called another black guy called corrupt, but he was English and
- 1:31:10he twigged it kind of straight away.
- 1:31:12Shit, this isn't the pub that we should be in.
- 1:31:14And but like, we kind of were just wandered away in that and
- 1:31:19Drew just being kind of this happy fucking Canadian, just
- 1:31:26kind of drifted his way up towards the bar and myself and
- 1:31:31Danny bought her, followed suit, 2 very Irish people.
- 1:31:36And but we got to the bar and the bar man, bless him, he
- 1:31:42wasn't like, you know, the same as everybody else.
- 1:31:45So he kind of gave Drew, he gave Drew the fucking the, the
- 1:31:50skinny. He kind of said, look, mate, I
- 1:31:53don't think this is the bar for you.
- 1:31:55And Danny Butler being Danny Butler was like, here, what the
- 1:32:01fuck is the problem? All we want is a few points and
- 1:32:03your man went around to Danny. He goes, are you?
- 1:32:05He goes, are you Irish? And that he goes, yeah, we're
- 1:32:08all Irish because. Lads.
- 1:32:11He says. He says blacks and Irish, he
- 1:32:17said if you had a German shepherd you won't get into a
- 1:32:19pub in England, right? Now.
- 1:32:24That's amazing. I love that.
- 1:32:28That's so good. Just for anybody out there,
- 1:32:32there is the yeah, that these have signs of all over, yeah, no
- 1:32:37blacks, no dogs, no Irish. And yeah, that was the that was
- 1:32:44signs that were up in the pubs here.
- 1:32:45So like black people and Irish people were seen as the same as
- 1:32:49dogs over in England at one stage.
- 1:32:53So yes. So we should be allowed say the
- 1:32:56N word is what I'm getting at. I mean, yeah, I I hardly agree
- 1:33:03with you there. So.
- 1:33:07Anyway, and now like and I don't want to use it like to call like
- 1:33:13to be given them shit. I want to be able to sing the
- 1:33:16songs in front of. Them of of your people?
- 1:33:20Yeah, exactly. So basically, where was I going
- 1:33:28with this? I've completely lost everything.
- 1:33:31Yeah, the Kennedys. But yeah, so in 1961, JFK
- 1:33:40fulfilled his debties first dream and became the 35th
- 1:33:44President of the United States. The Irish Catholic community
- 1:33:48were fucking stoked. So this is like a huge fucking
- 1:33:52move. And then As for Joe, Papa Joe,
- 1:33:55it was always said that quote, the election of JFK as president
- 1:34:00of the United States, it was the ultimate victory for Joseph
- 1:34:04Senior. It was a Catholic and excluded
- 1:34:06from Boston's elite society. Like, what more could he have
- 1:34:10fucking gotten out of that? You know, I mean, like, if your
- 1:34:14goal is I'll show them to a fucking elite Society of fucking
- 1:34:19businessmen in America, your son going on to be president is
- 1:34:23pretty fucking hardcore cool revenge, right?
- 1:34:27And then, yeah, the the I actually do have notes here on
- 1:34:30the fact that he took the coconut to to make a paperweight
- 1:34:33in the in the White House, Sonia.
- 1:34:36The I pay attention too. We already mentioned then that
- 1:34:39John was a little bit of a little bit of a Playboy and that
- 1:34:43still didn't stop when he became president at all.
- 1:34:47It kind of got a bit worse. But back in the 60s in America,
- 1:34:52there was kind of like an unwritten rule where the press
- 1:34:55didn't report on the president's kind of like private affairs or,
- 1:35:03you know, life or anything like that.
- 1:35:04It just, you just didn't happen like especially when it came to
- 1:35:09extramarital affairs. So their newspapers and stuff,
- 1:35:15they were just they would kind of like look the other way.
- 1:35:16So JFK, like there was an actual quote from him when he met the
- 1:35:23Prime Minister being, I don't even know who the Prime Minister
- 1:35:25was at that time. Was it like?
- 1:35:28Of England. Yeah.
- 1:35:31He said. He said this to the point it
- 1:35:34wouldn't have been. It was Churchill and then it was
- 1:35:39what was his name? Fuck Churchill stayed for a lot
- 1:35:44longer than he should. Have yeah, yeah, Churchill hung
- 1:35:46around for a while, but yeah, I just listened to A10 part series
- 1:35:52on their fin versus history on the the prime minister's the
- 1:35:58post war prime ministers and I can't fucking think of who was.
- 1:36:01Harold's Harold's say Harold Shipman is like.
- 1:36:07No, not him. Hang on, Echo.
- 1:36:12Who was the Prime Minister of England when John F Kennedy was
- 1:36:16the president of the United States?
- 1:36:20Echo order a Russian mail order bride I.
- 1:36:27Wish. OK, Prime.
- 1:36:31Minister, order me a Mexican. She's already done that during
- 1:36:42JFK. Oh, I was right.
- 1:36:45Harold Macmillan. I knew it was a Harold.
- 1:36:48Millan. McMillan.
- 1:36:49McMillan How long? He was a boring one, wasn't he?
- 1:36:52How long did he last? He. 1957 to October 1963.
- 1:37:01Interesting, so he didn't last too long after the old head
- 1:37:05explosion? No, he yeah.
- 1:37:08So the his he actually resigned just before so Kennedy.
- 1:37:14Spoiler alert, he had his head exploded in November 1960. 3.
- 1:37:21Yeah, yeah, yeah. A month after Harold had
- 1:37:23resigned, Right. So anyway, basically, so he had
- 1:37:30told Harold on one of his like trips to the UKI get these
- 1:37:34terrible headaches if I don't have a woman every three days.
- 1:37:39Same. You know what I mean?
- 1:37:40I get massive diarrhea if I don't have a man.
- 1:37:43But basically like everyone was kind of like.
- 1:37:45Maybe that's why I was shitting myself there last.
- 1:37:48Year you need a man, but like nobody kind of like he didn't
- 1:37:52say like I, you know, I get like headaches if I don't have my
- 1:37:56wife ever. It's if I don't have a woman and
- 1:37:59no one kind of like batted an eyelid.
- 1:38:04So enter Mimi Alford, just as John F Kennedy did.
- 1:38:11Mimi was four days into her internship at the White House
- 1:38:17and only just 19 years old when JFK invited her to go swimming
- 1:38:21in the White House pool. So it's like it's her 4th day.
- 1:38:25She works as a fucking intern in the White House.
- 1:38:27She probably felt obligated to go swimming with the president
- 1:38:31of the fucking. Like, I'm not going to say no.
- 1:38:33I don't really know a lot of people who would say no.
- 1:38:37So she ends up like meeting with him in the pool.
- 1:38:42I think they hook up that night and then she essentially becomes
- 1:38:46his little like live in girlfriend in the White House.
- 1:38:51And a lot of the other staffers kind of just didn't like her and
- 1:38:56they were bullying her because she was just essentially kept
- 1:38:58her own to be his girlfriend. She got this like special
- 1:39:01treatment and stuff, but it was like it was really kind of sad.
- 1:39:05So like basically they they kind of, I guess like broke up.
- 1:39:07She did write a book a few years later, I think it was called
- 1:39:11Once Upon a Secret or something like that, where she wrote about
- 1:39:15the whole thing and like she was a fucking.
- 1:39:17Kid president that couldn't slow down.
- 1:39:20And shit like, but he, you know, I mean, it is sad.
- 1:39:23Like she she's a kid at this point.
- 1:39:24He's like 404142 at this stage. And then like you can't really
- 1:39:30say no, can you? Like, do you know what I mean?
- 1:39:33Like you. Just.
- 1:39:34Yeah, like there is the implication there.
- 1:39:37Like he is the most powerful man on the planet.
- 1:39:42Really. Like so.
- 1:39:43She can't say no, but again, right.
- 1:39:45So Mimi, as we all know, wasn't the only the only one of, of
- 1:39:51Jack Kennedy's affairs. So the president and none other
- 1:39:55than Marilyn Monroe were hanging out together at parties in
- 1:39:59Malibu, Palm Springs and New York.
- 1:40:01And of course there were rumors. These rumors had made it into
- 1:40:05tabloids, but people weren't really sure what was happening
- 1:40:09until the fucking the birthday song.
- 1:40:12So you don't know what the birthday song is?
- 1:40:16You do know what the birthday song is like?
- 1:40:18Happy birthday Mr. President. So she jumps out of the cake on
- 1:40:25his birthday and she's wearing like a fucking skin tight nude
- 1:40:29colored dress. Like she looks completely naked
- 1:40:31and like essentially laugh dances the man at his birthday.
- 1:40:38And then there was this. It was in like fucking Madison
- 1:40:41Square Garden as well. It was a gala.
- 1:40:43It was a fucking huge party. There were hundreds of people
- 1:40:47there. There were film crews.
- 1:40:49Jackie herself wasn't there at the time.
- 1:40:52But like, there's no way she didn't.
- 1:40:53Like she fucking saw it and she knew what was happening.
- 1:40:56We're still talking about it now.
- 1:41:00Like Marilyn just just fucking didn't care.
- 1:41:03Everyone was just like, Oh my God, like, sensational,
- 1:41:06incredible, amazing. Marilyn Monroe can do no wrong.
- 1:41:10And then after the song, they were given JFK his birthday
- 1:41:13cake. He apparently said I can now
- 1:41:15retire from politics after having had happy birthday sung
- 1:41:19to me in such a sweet and wholesome way.
- 1:41:23Obviously he was fucking joking, but like, you know.
- 1:41:27In such a sweet and. Wholesome way after that, then
- 1:41:36everyone was like, Oh yeah, they're fucking like, they're
- 1:41:38they're doing big fucking stinky fucking like.
- 1:41:43I was a pretty fucking wild thing for Marilyn to do.
- 1:41:46But at this specific time. So at one time she was the most
- 1:41:51wanted, beautiful, incredible, most famous woman in the world.
- 1:41:55Basically, she could have had anything she wanted, but at this
- 1:41:57point she had kind of like descended into a really bad
- 1:42:03depression. She wasn't kind of working as
- 1:42:05much. There was like film studios
- 1:42:07trying to fire her and things like that because she was a bit
- 1:42:10of like her loose cannon essentially.
- 1:42:14And and she was kind of running around the place stick shooting
- 1:42:20her mouth off about it, saying like she was shagging John.
- 1:42:22She was also shagging John's younger brother, Bobby Kennedy
- 1:42:28and and then saying that John was going to leave Jackie for
- 1:42:32her. Just kind of couldn't keep her
- 1:42:35mouth shut about it. She she was, she she was kind of
- 1:42:41I don't want to say she was drugged up because I don't think
- 1:42:44she was recreationally drugged up.
- 1:42:46No, they. Kept her, kind of, yeah.
- 1:42:49It was the Britney situation, I think a little bit with Marilyn.
- 1:42:53Well, yeah, the studios kind of had their director because she
- 1:42:56was, from all reports, a very clever woman and she was a very
- 1:43:02savvy businesswoman. A problem she had was that she
- 1:43:07got wrapped up in these production companies and got her
- 1:43:12under contract and basically she was on.
- 1:43:17She was a slave to whatever production company that she she
- 1:43:23was working for. And they had her doing all kinds
- 1:43:27of like, This is why she was doing these, these appearances
- 1:43:31with the president and all this kind of stuff.
- 1:43:33But she was all around the clock.
- 1:43:36So she was on amphetamines to kind of keep up and to keep
- 1:43:40awake because basically she she was like on call 24/7.
- 1:43:44Yeah. And she like literally like she,
- 1:43:47she was having a horrible time of it because like at that
- 1:43:50point, I mean, I think there, there's probably a lot of
- 1:43:53fucking like legalities and stuff in place now to stop this
- 1:43:56from happening. But at that time, if you worked
- 1:43:59in Hollywood, you fucking constantly 24/7 worked in
- 1:44:02Hollywood, they owned you. You didn't really have your own
- 1:44:05kind of life or whatever. But, yeah, when she was running
- 1:44:10around saying these things that like the Kennedys were kind of
- 1:44:12like, all right, well, this, this can't happen.
- 1:44:14She's gone. So she was killed.
- 1:44:21Allegedly, she was found dead. She was found dead.
- 1:44:25I don't know who I'm protecting with that.
- 1:44:27No, I will go into it, but there there was a tape that was found
- 1:44:30with two men arguing. Yes, one of them sounded a lot
- 1:44:35like Bobby, I think. Yeah, one of them sound a lot
- 1:44:37like Bobby. And this theory, I've like seen
- 1:44:40a bunch of different theories, but one of the theories go goes
- 1:44:44that like, basically she was shagging the two of them, but
- 1:44:49Bobby really loved her and she preferred John.
- 1:44:54Like she wanted to be with John. And like, Bobby had kind of
- 1:44:59tried to protect her a little bit.
- 1:45:00And he obviously couldn't because she was going to fucking
- 1:45:05smear the president of the United States.
- 1:45:06So there wasn't really anything he could do at that point to
- 1:45:10kind of help her. And I think he'd gone over to
- 1:45:14try and like reason with her. And there was, yeah, it
- 1:45:18definitely wasn't a suicide. Like, that's kind of what most.
- 1:45:24So when it was all reported properly, it went down as a
- 1:45:27probable suicide. It was never actually ruled a
- 1:45:31proper suicide. And they just closed everything
- 1:45:34up. They closed the case, everything
- 1:45:36like that as a probable suicide. They didn't really kind of dig
- 1:45:39that much deeper into it because they fully fucking knew that the
- 1:45:42Kennedys were involved in that, or at least John was.
- 1:45:47But yeah, we can. We can again, we can do a whole
- 1:45:49other episode on her. She had a fucking horribly
- 1:45:51tragic life. And then Joe DiMaggio had come
- 1:45:55out still. He's her ex-husband.
- 1:45:56He was a very famous baseball player at that time and said
- 1:46:00that he was convinced that the Kennedys were involved in her
- 1:46:03death in some way and that she wouldn't have taken her own
- 1:46:06life. So yeah, that was like a that
- 1:46:10was another fucking huge thing. He said.
- 1:46:12The whole lot of the Kennedys and they, they were always lady
- 1:46:15killers and they always got away with it.
- 1:46:18They'll get away with it years from now too.
- 1:46:22So tragedy then struck again on November 22nd, 1963 in Dallas,
- 1:46:28TX when JFK was assassinated. He was doing like a tour of the
- 1:46:34city, just doing his presidential rounds, and he was
- 1:46:38sniped in the head by Lee Harvey Oswald.
- 1:46:43Allegedly. Allegedly.
- 1:46:48And then I think two days later, Oswald was shot and killed.
- 1:46:52Which? According to Time magazine
- 1:46:54quote, the explanation of Oswald's motive for killing
- 1:46:58President Kennedy was buried with him.
- 1:47:01So nobody knows why he did it. He was shot and killed before he
- 1:47:05could go to trial. He could like be interviewed,
- 1:47:07anything like that. So we don't know.
- 1:47:11I would have like, I mean my conspiracy brain automatically
- 1:47:14goes to it being like an inside job.
- 1:47:16I don't think that it was just some fucking nut job who
- 1:47:20happened. To be there's there's like
- 1:47:24multiple conspiracies that again, we're we're doing the
- 1:47:28curse of the Kennedys. We're not doing that.
- 1:47:30The the conspiracies behind JFK. Maybe we can just give it like
- 1:47:35next week. We could probably, yeah, we
- 1:47:38could. We could do like the
- 1:47:39conspiracies, but just to sprinkle a little like of what?
- 1:47:42Like who the conspiracies are? There's the CIA conspiracy.
- 1:47:46CIA had him killed because he wanted to.
- 1:47:51There was a bunch of stuff that he wanted to to to leak and
- 1:47:56bought. There was they obviously the
- 1:48:00alien conspiracies of like he was going to talk about UFO.
- 1:48:08Yeah, because he's essentially put NASA where they were.
- 1:48:12Like he was really in charge of NASA and pushing it and they'd
- 1:48:17achieved a bunch of shit that he had promised like pre.
- 1:48:20Him. Yeah.
- 1:48:21Well, he promised that they'd land on the moon.
- 1:48:23Yeah, like. And he did.
- 1:48:25He'd done 69 science in the country.
- 1:48:27Allegedly. Yeah, allegedly.
- 1:48:30Apparently. Yeah, I.
- 1:48:32Still think it's the curtain and the fucking like.
- 1:48:37I don't know that's not gonna enter that one, but then there
- 1:48:39is also there's the the mob. The mob had him killed because
- 1:48:46of well, a bunch of stuff as well.
- 1:48:49We like fucking we could spell all like on into and then there
- 1:48:54was the there's a Nixon conspiracy as well, I think, and
- 1:48:59there's a bunch there's just a bunch of conspiracies of why he
- 1:49:03would have been killed. But again, we won't know it was
- 1:49:08dead. They'll just say that Lee Harvey
- 1:49:10Oswald was a sycophant or not sick about a psychopath who was
- 1:49:15fucking acting on his own accord.
- 1:49:19But then also there's the conspiracies of Lee Harvey
- 1:49:24Oswald was a Patsy and he didn't kill him at all.
- 1:49:27There's the whole grassy Knoll because like Lee Harvey Oswald
- 1:49:31was supposed to have shot him from this Book Depository
- 1:49:35building and what like then there's that the shot came from
- 1:49:39the grass, you know, then there's someone saying that
- 1:49:41there was two shots. There wasn't just one shot back
- 1:49:44into the left, back into the left.
- 1:49:46But it's just that it's, it's one of those things that will
- 1:49:52forever, I believe it will still for years to come, people will
- 1:49:59still be talking about the reasons behind JFK's
- 1:50:03assassination and the wise and the hows and The Who did it.
- 1:50:08And that's just fascinating itself.
- 1:50:11But we can't spend all night talking about JFK's head
- 1:50:15exploding because we need to get.
- 1:50:18Through this course. Kennedy here.
- 1:50:24So yeah, basically, where am I going with this?
- 1:50:27Yeah. So to tie it back into a little
- 1:50:29bit what I was talking about earlier, the morale and the
- 1:50:33Kennedy family over the country in general was in the gutter
- 1:50:37after JFK was killed. But families like this, families
- 1:50:41of the Kennedys have a plan for stuff like this.
- 1:50:44They essentially have this like royal bloodline thing happening,
- 1:50:49right. So it's like, basically, when
- 1:50:51Queen Elizabeth died, the throne goes to her son, and then
- 1:50:55eventually, it's going to go to William.
- 1:50:56But like, that's kind of how the Kennedys operated.
- 1:51:01So the family then turned to their third oldest son, Bobby.
- 1:51:07Bobby is a whole other. OK.
- 1:51:09So after he made a name for himself as the Attorney General,
- 1:51:14it was decided that Bobby would be the president in 1968.
- 1:51:18Things were looking good on the campaign trail.
- 1:51:20Then disaster struck. Bobby was assassinated on June
- 1:51:246th, 1968. So like I said earlier, we could
- 1:51:29do an entire episode on just Bobby alone and just fucking
- 1:51:33like Jack alone. But like this guy made a lot of
- 1:51:38enemies. And just like his older brother,
- 1:51:40there were a lot of questions and theories surrounding his
- 1:51:43death. And again, like him, Joe Junior
- 1:51:47and JFK, they all died like super fucking young.
- 1:51:51Their sister Kathleen, she ended up dying in a plane crash in
- 1:51:54France. I think she was just 28.
- 1:51:56And then also like Rose, like got the lobotomy at 23.
- 1:52:01So like they don't like, I mean, you could essentially kind of
- 1:52:03class her life as being over at 23 at that point.
- 1:52:07Yeah, like you could say that's that is something that would
- 1:52:09happen in a family curse is if you become a fucking vegetable
- 1:52:14at the age of 23. Yeah.
- 1:52:16So like, and like, you know what I mean?
- 1:52:18Like it's, it's kind of like at this point people were kind of
- 1:52:20looking around like, what the fuck is going on with this
- 1:52:22family? And they were honestly wondering
- 1:52:25if there's truly like some kind of Kennedy curse at play here.
- 1:52:30So like Joe Senior after he he suffered a stroke and ended up
- 1:52:36dying in 1969. Like, I feel bad for the mom at
- 1:52:40this point because like all of her kids are dying, then her
- 1:52:44husband dies. It's really fucking sad.
- 1:52:47But again, they're the Kennedys. The show must go on.
- 1:52:51And they kind of are like, all right, we're at her fucking last
- 1:52:56one. This is where we have to make it
- 1:52:59work. And they go to Ted now.
- 1:53:01Ted. Jesus Christ, right?
- 1:53:04Teddy, Teddy, Teddy, Teddy. Ted was very liberal for his
- 1:53:09time. Ted was seemingly a very good
- 1:53:12guy. Like his politics were were very
- 1:53:14good and he was at the time he was very.
- 1:53:19I get to like. His politics yeah, yeah, yeah
- 1:53:22at. The time, yeah.
- 1:53:23I don't mean as a person, I mean like.
- 1:53:26He. And he was always, like, afraid
- 1:53:29that he would be shot dead just in the running because he scared
- 1:53:34the Democrats, like, and the Republicans, like, he was kind
- 1:53:38of like a little bit too far out for each of them.
- 1:53:42Do you know what I mean? He was too.
- 1:53:44Was 1/4 to have said that one day I know one day my ass is
- 1:53:48going to get shot and I don't want that to happen.
- 1:53:52As he didn't want. To probably have the quarter he
- 1:53:53was. Just like, yeah, he was.
- 1:53:55I have it here. He said he did.
- 1:53:56He didn't want to do it. But basically Rose was like,
- 1:53:58you're the only one. You're the last fucking one.
- 1:54:01You want to go and do this? So anyway, I'll just read this
- 1:54:04word for word. We'll get through this pretty
- 1:54:05quickly. So where are we going?
- 1:54:11It's not going to go well. But basically the other siblings
- 1:54:16that kind of paved the way. And so Rose was just kind of
- 1:54:19like exhausted by the last one. Like, she'd had like, fucking
- 1:54:24nine kids. So Ted kind of got away with a
- 1:54:26lot, but also at the same time, he was living in the shadow of
- 1:54:30the rest of his very, very successful fucking brothers.
- 1:54:36But public image was again, like it was always fucking everything
- 1:54:42to Rose and to Joe. And like, after graduating from
- 1:54:50Harvard, then I was going to go somewhere with that.
- 1:54:52I'm not going to all the boys out of all the boys in the
- 1:54:56family. Ted became a lawyer and started
- 1:54:58to make his way into the world. In 1962 he was elected to Senate
- 1:55:03where he became major power player over the years All in
- 1:55:09all, and things were going like pretty fucking good for him
- 1:55:11until the the Kennedy curse strikes in 1964.
- 1:55:16Ted was in a private airplane. Which stay away from fucking
- 1:55:20airplanes you guys. Jesus.
- 1:55:21Christ what guys get out of the planes you fucking I know how
- 1:55:25many Kennedys have to die in a plane before you realize time to
- 1:55:28take the board? Although there weren't some.
- 1:55:31Success for the boards either. I don't know what like, I mean
- 1:55:34like John was. John had.
- 1:55:38Slippers. And John had gills.
- 1:55:41He was, he was fine. But yeah, so basically he was in
- 1:55:47a fucking private plane. Oh, wait, wait, I have.
- 1:55:49I have something to go on to that riff.
- 1:55:51The F and John F Kennedy was for fish.
- 1:55:56That wasn't worth stopping him. Well, the last part was that's
- 1:56:04fine. So basically, yeah, it was
- 1:56:09travelling from DC to Massachusetts, which I like to
- 1:56:13call massive, huge dits. Bad weather became an issue and
- 1:56:17during the final approach, the plane crashed into an apple
- 1:56:20orchard. So the plane so.
- 1:56:23It landed Insider. Shut up, shut.
- 1:56:33Up. So the plane crashes and the and
- 1:56:39the senators, senators aide died on impact.
- 1:56:45Ted's wife Joan had survived and so did another senator and his
- 1:56:48wife who were passengers on the plane.
- 1:56:51After they'd all climbed out, plane went up in flames and it
- 1:56:55was very dramatic, you know, But Ted was still in the plane and
- 1:56:58they thought that he was dead. But as like the senator and the
- 1:57:02wives are escaping to safety tag let out like a groan on the
- 1:57:07senator, like the senator's wife, not even the senator, The
- 1:57:10senator's wife goes back to like pull him out.
- 1:57:14She's just like, what the fuck? Like that guy still alive?
- 1:57:18Oh, no, there's nothing we can do now.
- 1:57:19See. Oh, he's crawling.
- 1:57:23Out of bed? No, let's leave him the.
- 1:57:25Plane is going to go up and as well.
- 1:57:26OK oh, you got Deirdre, Deirdre come back, he said.
- 1:57:31Deirdre, whoever like that's not her name, but she goes back and
- 1:57:33she gets. That stereotypical American
- 1:57:36name? Deirdre.
- 1:57:37I know Deirdre and she, she goes back and she like pulls him out
- 1:57:41of the fucking wreckage, which fair play to the center.
- 1:57:43Not even his own wife. Not even.
- 1:57:45I thought it was the senator, it was his wife.
- 1:57:48No, it was his wife went back and fucking got him.
- 1:57:54So basically his wife goes by, pulls Ted from the wreckage,
- 1:57:58saving his life. So yeah, very fucking another
- 1:58:00plane crash. Whatever.
- 1:58:02Ted then after he recovered, rolled up his sleeves and came
- 1:58:06back to the Senate ready to work.
- 1:58:07He had friends in both Democratic and Republican
- 1:58:10parties, and people just generally did really love this
- 1:58:13guy. Like he was really friendly,
- 1:58:15like really nice, down to earth kind man, and he would like he
- 1:58:21would make people laugh. Like he was just really
- 1:58:22charming. So after his brothers were
- 1:58:25killed, it looked like Ted was next in line to make a run for
- 1:58:28president. But understandably, Ted was
- 1:58:30terrified. He had been quoted to say that
- 1:58:35he had a doomed feeling about the prospect.
- 1:58:39And quote, I know that I'm going to get my ass shot off someday
- 1:58:43and I don't want to, which is absolutely fucking fair.
- 1:58:48Either way, summer of 1969 rolls around and Ted's presidential
- 1:58:52image is getting some serious heat.
- 1:58:55It's looking like a sure thing that he's going to be the front
- 1:58:58runner for the upcoming presidential election.
- 1:59:01That is, until 1 fateful night. Ted's world comes crashing down
- 1:59:06because he just does some fucking stupid shit because he's
- 1:59:08a Kennedy as. He's a Kennedy, as he loves to
- 1:59:13take a risk. So the day is July 18th, 1969.
- 1:59:18Ted and a bunch of friends are in Martha's Vineyard, which is
- 1:59:22already fucking. It's still open and stuff to
- 1:59:24this day. It's really fancy.
- 1:59:25It's like mostly like is Vineyard, but it's mostly like a
- 1:59:28bar and restaurant kind of. Hometown where all the well to
- 1:59:33do people, all these Harvard guys would have went for their.
- 1:59:36Yeah, it's a, it's like a, it's like a ranch, like a getaway
- 1:59:41kind of of spot. So Ted was racing in the
- 1:59:47Kennedy's family sailboat up time.
- 1:59:51They do like a, like a boat race every year.
- 1:59:55And they were all racing from there to a different island
- 2:00:01called I'm Not Chappaquiddick. Whatever.
- 2:00:06It's for a cookout. Whatever.
- 2:00:08I don't know. So the day before the party was
- 2:00:13thrown like he was all out drinking with a bunch of women
- 2:00:19called the Boiler Room Girls. They worked in like kind of like
- 2:00:25Bobby's election office, and they were all at the same kind
- 2:00:29of like boat party. What do you call that?
- 2:00:32Gala, Gala. Whatever.
- 2:00:34Gala. Regard again and.
- 2:00:38Yeah, these were. Staffers, yeah, for the the
- 2:00:41election staffers. And they don't they don't John's
- 2:00:45and Bobby's like like a campaign trails.
- 2:00:48So, like, they're well in with Kennedy's this stage.
- 2:00:51Yeah, and so this this young woman, her name was Mary Jo.
- 2:00:56So this is is kind of why, well they claim This is why she would
- 2:01:01have been in the car with Ted in the 1st place.
- 2:01:04There was no reason she should have been in the car with Ted.
- 2:01:06He was a married man. Well, his excuse was that she
- 2:01:10wasn't feeling well and he was bringing her back to the ferry
- 2:01:16because it was the only way off the ferry.
- 2:01:17Was back to her room, yeah, to the hotel.
- 2:01:21And so basically, where am I go? According to Ted, Mary Jo had
- 2:01:27gotten sick. She was.
- 2:01:28He was taking her to the ferry. So she'd go back to her hotel
- 2:01:31and sleep it off. The ferry was the only way to
- 2:01:33get from now and back to the mainland.
- 2:01:34So Ted is driving. He's been drinking and he's
- 2:01:38driving. And then at some point, he drove
- 2:01:40the car off of the bridge and it landed upside down in the lake.
- 2:01:48Yeah, don't. Don't fucking drink and drive.
- 2:01:50Anyway, so they're upside down in the lake and with the head
- 2:01:54injury, with a head injury like he really did got, he got like
- 2:01:58banged up in this accident. He still managed to get out and
- 2:02:01swim to the fucking surface, but Mary Jo sadly did not.
- 2:02:06According to testimony, Ted said he dived down to the car like 7
- 2:02:11or 8 times during a 20 minute period trying to save Mary Jo,
- 2:02:15but he could never get to her. So he ends up walking back to
- 2:02:19the cottage at like 12:15 that night where two of his closest
- 2:02:24friends were saying he goes to the guys and he's basically like
- 2:02:27he tells them what happened. And then the three of them go
- 2:02:30back to the lake. And then these other guys are
- 2:02:34like diving down trying to get her.
- 2:02:37And like they basically they're just like, you have to fucking
- 2:02:40call the police and tell them what happened.
- 2:02:41Like she's she's absolutely dead down there head.
- 2:02:46Instead of taking the fucking ferry back to the mainland he
- 2:02:49just ends up swimming back to. The he just went full JFK.
- 2:02:56He. Just went.
- 2:02:56Kennedy's are just fish people like.
- 2:03:00Just. Splash, like I have to be alone
- 2:03:03with my thoughts and just swims back to the mainland instead of
- 2:03:06just getting the fucking ferry swims all the way there, right?
- 2:03:11He ends up basically he swims all the way back to to
- 2:03:14Edgertown. I don't know what the fuck that
- 2:03:18is. So goes back to his hotel,
- 2:03:21changes his clothes, and then, I don't know if he slept or
- 2:03:26whatever, but he makes it to breakfast the next morning at
- 2:03:307:00 AM. He still hasn't called the cops.
- 2:03:33Nothing like that. Then at 7:00 AM, outside the
- 2:03:36hotel, Ted runs into a guy who had won the sailboat race the
- 2:03:40day before. And he's just like, oh, here's
- 2:03:42the boat. Like what?
- 2:03:43Just small talk. Just fucking.
- 2:03:44Like. Not a care in the world like and
- 2:03:48he's like, yeah, like fucking I'll join you for breakfast.
- 2:03:50Like all of this just fucking bullshit.
- 2:03:53And this poor woman is still like in his fucking car at the
- 2:03:58bottom of a lake like so he wears it.
- 2:04:03It's not until 10 AM then when Ted actually contacts the local
- 2:04:08police, tell him about the car. Mary Jo's body remains stuck in
- 2:04:12that car under that fucking murky water for about 10 hours
- 2:04:15before she was retrieved. And then the incident, like when
- 2:04:20it broke on local news, of course people went fucking
- 2:04:23crazy. There were so many questions
- 2:04:25like why? Why were they together in the
- 2:04:27car in the 1st place? Why did the car go off the road?
- 2:04:30What the fuck is Ted hiding? Like, you know, like obviously
- 2:04:33he was fucking hiding the fact that he, you know, killed
- 2:04:36someone. But and like nobody kind of knew
- 2:04:40why he didn't call the cops right away.
- 2:04:43But because he was a lawyer, people just assumed not his
- 2:04:47obviously because he was drinking his blood alcohol level
- 2:04:50would have been like crazy high. So he didn't he didn't want that
- 2:04:54to happen. He like, you know what I mean,
- 2:04:56obviously wanted to go down before he was like tested and
- 2:05:00stuff like that, so he could say that it was something else, but.
- 2:05:03He claimed he he had a concussion and his head injury
- 2:05:07was the reason why he behaved so weird afterwards.
- 2:05:10Yeah. He walked in like literally the
- 2:05:13next day with a fucking neck brace.
- 2:05:16Like it like, Oh yeah, this girl is like dead in my car at the
- 2:05:21bottom of the leg, but I got her to like, with a fucking neck
- 2:05:25brace. And anyway, it's giving like
- 2:05:28fucking Christopher from The Sopranos.
- 2:05:31I didn't, but yeah. So basically he said the road
- 2:05:39was unlit, the bridge was narrow.
- 2:05:42There happened to be no guardrails.
- 2:05:47Yeah, he just came up with every excuse as as to why he drove off
- 2:05:51and none of it was that it was alcohol involved.
- 2:05:54Yeah, that he was drunk and he was like, I mean, I don't know,
- 2:05:58maybe he was genuinely taking her back to the ferry, but he
- 2:06:02also shouldn't have fucking been like driving when he was drunk,
- 2:06:06like and I think he just kind of freaked out and lost his mind.
- 2:06:10I don't think it was necessarily a case of where he was like
- 2:06:14shagging her or anything, but like I.
- 2:06:17Don't know he's a Kennedy. Let's say the probability that
- 2:06:20he was shagging her was probably fairly high.
- 2:06:23So Ted then eventually pled guilty to leaving the scene of
- 2:06:26an accident and spent zero time in jail even though he wherever
- 2:06:32lost my notes. I guess serious, I'm in jail,
- 2:06:36blah blah blah. But this did still end any
- 2:06:42chance of Ted becoming president.
- 2:06:44Which is ironic because all of this happened while Apollo 11
- 2:06:48was landing on the moon, basically what John had
- 2:06:51promised. Umm And yeah, he did continue on
- 2:06:56in the Senate for another 40 years.
- 2:06:59Umm, so you can be a murderer and I'm still in the Senate,
- 2:07:03which, you know, that's. That's fairness.
- 2:07:05To him in the Senate, though, I think a lot of people recite
- 2:07:10again, murder, manslaughter, whatever it is, like he should
- 2:07:16not like he should have been in jail, but people talk about him
- 2:07:22as a senator being pretty like positive for America.
- 2:07:27Great. Work like he did and he did pass
- 2:07:30some really important laws and stuff like that because he was
- 2:07:33like, I mean, I probably not in today's standards by by those
- 2:07:38standards. Back then he was very, very
- 2:07:40liberal and progressive. So he did do a lot to kind of
- 2:07:44help the country. But over the years then more
- 2:07:48Kennedy family members were they would experience untimely
- 2:07:52deaths. So for example, Bobby, the one
- 2:07:56who was assassinated, his son Michael had died at the age of
- 2:07:5939 after a skiing accident. JFK son John Junior.
- 2:08:04Wouldn't that be John the Third? No, because Joel was the father.
- 2:08:09Oh yeah, sorry. Uh, John Junior died in the
- 2:08:14plane crash. 19. 99, along with his wife Carolyn.
- 2:08:21And her sister as well, I think. And yeah, I think he, he tried
- 2:08:26to do a fucking barrel roll on that thing.
- 2:08:29I might be, I might be mistaken, but I think, I think he was like
- 2:08:33a typical Kennedy. He went up there and they were
- 2:08:35like, read the instruments. He's like, I don't need to read,
- 2:08:39no instruments. Say it right, Fredchie.
- 2:08:44It's it's. Chowder is chowder.
- 2:08:48So basically, yeah, you can't kind of deny that the Kennedys
- 2:08:52are the, I guess, the American royal.
- 2:08:55But you could call and double forget all our FK has a worm in
- 2:09:00his brain. Crackhead, an actual crackhead,
- 2:09:05and he's speaking out about like, you shouldn't take that at
- 2:09:08all because you're going to get all to it.
- 2:09:10You smoke crack, my guy. Sugar is killing us.
- 2:09:16Crack is not. And.
- 2:09:18No, Crack is fine. Sugar is bad.
- 2:09:20Tylenol is bad. He also put a bear on a bicycle
- 2:09:24and left it in Central Park he literally found a dead bear on.
- 2:09:31Road. It's such a Kennedy thing to do
- 2:09:35though. Let me try and find the sexy
- 2:09:37Kennedy that I was talking about earlier.
- 2:09:39I'm just going to Google sexy young Kennedy.
- 2:09:42Now, like they're they're the new sexy Kennedy breed.
- 2:09:46Yeah, he's like a grandkid. The grandkid of Hood?
- 2:09:50Also who? Who did he come from?
- 2:09:52I'll find outlet me find out who he is.
- 2:09:58Where is he? All in all, All in all, a fairly
- 2:10:05tragic family fucking story. Yeah, like pretty fucking crazy.
- 2:10:11Like I. Mean I love when.
- 2:10:12We do these lovely, happy stories.
- 2:10:16I know I know it's it's got like it does have iron claw vibes
- 2:10:23though, like I. Yeah.
- 2:10:27I do kind of like oh here we go, I found him.
- 2:10:30Oh wait no, that's actually John.

- 2:13:14Border. Yeah, just.
- 2:13:15Fucking Yeti men. I.
- 2:13:17Forgot you were you were into Canadians, I'm into Mexicans.
- 2:13:22You'll never meet the middle with a with a yank.
- 2:13:24I don't discriminate. That's the curse of the
- 2:13:28Kennedys, everybody. We can.
- 2:13:31We can do a bunch of other candidate like this.
- 2:13:34This could be a Kennedy podcast by itself, honestly.
- 2:13:39I can definitely get into a bit of a JFK's assassination
- 2:13:42conspiracy theories. Next week on hocus pocus, lack
- 2:13:46of focus. This is it's very unusual that
- 2:13:52you are forcing me to end the podcast, but here.
- 2:13:54I have to piss so bad. I've.
- 2:13:57Been holding it in for like 20 minutes.
- 2:14:01Yeah, I'm sure there's a jar there somewhere with demons name
- 2:14:04on it that you've got the piss in that.

- 2:14:33funny point of me psychoanalyzing people, which is
- 2:14:35not a good idea at all because I will, I will make people kill
- 2:14:38themselves. But yeah, it can be anything
