Who Killed JFK? For 60 years, we are still asking that question. In commemoration of the 60th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's tragic assassination, legendary filmmaker Rob Reiner teams up with award-winning journalist Soledad O’Brien to tell the history of America’s greatest murder mystery. They interview CIA officials, medical experts, Pulitzer-prize winning journalists, eyewitnesses and a former Secret Service agent who, in 2023, came forward with groundbreaking new evidence. They dig deep into the layers of the 60-year-old question ‘Who Killed JFK?’, how that question has shaped America, and why it matters that we’re still asking it today.
Introducing: Solita — Can Julie Become a 'Regular' at a Pub in Ireland?
On her new podcast Solita, Who Killed JFK? producer Julie Piñero is on a mission to de-mystify solo travel. She has four nights in Galway on one mission: become a "regular" at a pub in Ireland.  This episode — episode one — is dropping in your JFK feed because, well, if you're the kind of person who's spent time debating grassy knolls over a pint, then you already understand the appeal of a good local pub.  Julie's got advice from locals in her ear, 15 years of solo travel under her belt, and only four nights to make it happen. She's racing the clock to become a "regular" in pursuit of the answer: how do you connect to a place when you're only just passing through, alone?  Subscribe to Solita on your favorite podcast platform.
