Comments

Hal Warren

Let's get these comments rolling people!

Michael S. Judge

Missouri being what it is, I think I have a chance as a crank senator from the left. I just wouldn't ever say "left"

Tryg

Back.... and to the left Back.... and to the left Back.... and to the left Back.... and to the left

Maura Willey

need to know if I am the only person who consistently sees "ben howard" and thinks of the british musician

Hal Warren

I think I have a chance that my penis will become so small, I could be Nathan Fielder's stunt double on the new Showtime series, "The Curse".

Michael S. Judge

People always worry about bigger, but you gotta remember: you can always go smaller. My whole shit is just a notion at this point

Mark Owen

As an Evergreen Geoduck, I feel attacked. But seen.

obliteron

Shots fired! Go Geoducks!

Jess 🐞

Defended Lucy Lawless, but will not defend Evergreen.

Alex C

Came here to say this

Michael S. Judge

I think it's very likely that what they're still hiding, as Aaron alludes to, is the presence of a full institutional apparatus that not only killed Kennedy but possibly did so under auspices that are technically legal & bureaucratically sanctioned, and that this apparatus is still functionally present & active. You start getting COG in there, as 9/11 demonstrated, you can get away with any goddamn thing

J98

And that's why I'm voting RFK. He'll change things! Right Aaron. Right? Right Aaron?

Hana

HOT DAMN! Yes, Aaron Good! YES!

brodie

So are you guys gonna get on the real shit that jfks head just did that or what? Can't really take any discussion of the topic seriously if you don't at least acknowledge the possibility that his head just popped like a balloon on its own

Zach Young

Us greeners are tired…. Evergreen has been through enough…

Hana

Oh shit. Is he doing that? Damn.

Rob McInerny

Speaking of Warren not wanting to serve on the commission, Richard Russell also didn't want to serve on it..because he *hated Warren lol

K

Amazing episode as usual! On the subject of CIA anti-Castro asset-linked assassinations, have you guys given thought to doing episodes on John Lennon's assassination? The doorman of the Dakota building where he was killed was a prominent anti-Castro Cuban named Jose Perdomo. https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Sanjen%C3%ADs_Perdomo

pulled a muscle yearning

Brace's real name is Gretchen? Brian Setser's guitar is a Gretsch, rockabilly Brace confirmed

Corey Reynolds

Why would it benefit the CIA to admit anything? Of course they’re not going to disclose anything. It would be very bad PR. Even if it was 60 years ago it would still be a bad look for the CIA.

Robert Sayre

On the U2 / Gary Powers thing, there are some good video interviews with Col. Fletcher Prouty. He (and Kissinger) say it was not shot down, because the plane was really fragile to make it light. The theory is that the hydrogen required to fly at 80-90k was deliberately underfueled, and he had to descend, where he met some Soviet fighter jets and landed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56jK4ma6mWo

Matelda

Kissinger is still alive. When he dies, then we might get the documents

Dino Zaccagna

I died at the Ed O'Neil comparison.

Sean

Geoduck Gumshoes unite

R-Man

Aaron Good was really cooking towards the end of this episode 🤌

The Children of Jack Acid

Just a few examples of CIA attempts, many of them successful, to do regime change and/or assassinations: 1. The assassination of Rafael Trujillo in the Dominican Republic in 1961 2. The assassination of former Congolese Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba in 1961 3. The Bay of Pigs Invasion of 1961 to depose Fidel Castro 4-638. Another "634" plots to kill Castro 639. At least passive acceptance/knowledge in advance of the 1963 coup against South Vietnamese President Ngo Dinh Diem that lead to his execution. 640. They also murdered General René Schneider Chereau in Chile in a botched kidnapping attempt. 641. The CIA likely had a hand in the 1973 coup in Chile that led President Salvador Allende to take his own life and put Pinochet in power. 642. the CIA had tentative 1960 plans to assassinate Iraqi Prime Minister Abd al-Karim Qasim 643. ... then the CIA drew up plans for a coup in Iraq in 1962... 644. ... then they likely participated in (or at the very least, endorsed) the 1963 Ba'athist Iraqi coup that led to the executions of Qasim and other top leaders.

babygurl

Big heart eyes for these two

Alex

Young Chomsky needs a mic

Stephen Norrie

Are you guys ever going to do a series on Watergate?

J3M

I would love to have Ben on again for a watergate series

Colin Andrews

I cannot believe that wretched hellspawn still breathes

Sike

Czolgosz = Cholgosh, but you can pronounce a name however you like

zack

better a greener than someone who went to any of the evil schools

JB

Aaron has 3 or 4 episodes on Watergate, but I think they are all behind a paywall. His book has a pretty substantial section on Watergate as well.

JB

I doubt Kissinger is at a high enough level to even know what's in the JFK files. But he is plenty evil and as we know, evil is best preservative. Possibly because neither heaven nor hell wants these people.

JB

Can we please have a full height shot of the massive Ben? You guys cannot tease us so much without a massive angelic Ben shot. I am begging. I need something to wash out that creepy image of Milei as the third string Dr. Venture arch, Raccoon Pelts Man.

Ash

they’re debunkers

The Children of Jack Acid

At 13:50 "That's something that happened in 9/11 as well, where certain people in the CIA were aware of the hijackers, but you can't blow the whistle on them before 9/11 happens: otherwise you don't get your false flag attack." Whaaaa? I'm curious what he thinks went down with 9/11.

.img

they have like 6 episodes about 9/11 featuring one or both of these guests lol

malpertuis

Good meaty episode. I love Wormwood. Hersh saying there is still old hat CIA guys there back slapping about the old crimes and cover ups haunts me..

Sean Carton

That’s two and a half minutes. Not twenty five. We don’t waste anyone’s time.

Timothy

Can Brace come to New Orleans and do an accents and impressions show?

Zach Beale

Can you get Ben a glass of water

Alaina Nuvola

Ben speaks so low!! And Brace screams

drizzly_november

Love Ben, but his voice sounds like a mellow Mayor Pete.

Jmsh Bornd

Check out their 9/11 series for some interpretations of what went down.

Nauvoo Legionarrie

Once again, Brace is CANCELLED for not making a Pee Harvey Oswald joke at the end of the episode

grant brown

I don’t understand (or maybe I do) why a major media outlet doesn’t do a big investigative piece on the murder of Mary Pinchot Meyer. Unlike a lot of these topics, it’s super clear cut: A key witness in the patsy’s trial was a guy who doesn’t exist! Former Washington Post editor Bill Bradlee wrote a book that contradicts his sworn testimony! Seems right in the nyt strike zone.

Christopher Price

You have so much stuff to explore in the archives

Christopher Price

All three of the pre JFK assassinated presidents died on the operating table. one of them (Garfield?) died because they tried using magnets to detect the bullet while he was lying on a bed with a metal frame, so they carved up his guts looking for the bullet.

shoutout evergreen, got a dogshit education and speedran being a republican straight to being a leftist who refused to talk to anyone about politics for like two years after I graduated bc I was so annoyed. google "geoduck speedy plush" one of the worst things I've ever owned.

Lizard

#1 reason to go there is to make fun of it after

Lizard

Rip Lee

Google "Canestraro declaration"

DeadPrince

I went to buy the book « brothers » by David Talbot off a lady on marketplace. She then showed me her late husband’s « JFK » room. She gave me everything he had collected since 1960. Including coins and life magazines from 1960-1995 on the topic of JFK. Even got a memorial coin and a scrap book of news articles from over the years + a scrap book of Zapruder film enlargements. I tried to pay her, but she asked that I donate to the kidney foundation instead. RIP Danny K.

Chapo Bath House

A friend of mine recently learned that one of his distant relatives was the KGB agent that was assigned to watch Oswald when he was in the USSR. I don't have an interesting story, I just thought that was crazy

Kujo

who's here in 2026 after watching the CBK/JFK Jr. show 😐
