The Charles C. W. Cooke Podcast

Episode 17: The Man Who Knew Lee Harvey Oswald

Episode Summary

In episode 17 of The Charles C. W. Cooke Podcast, Charles notes that Florida's proposed "constitutional carry" legislation is not remotely as controversial as the press seems to believe, and that, if Florida adopts it, it will become the 26th state to do so. Then Charles talks to Paul Gregory, one of the few people who can answer the question, "so you knew Lee Harvey Oswald" with a "yes."

Episode Notes

How many people can say they knew someone who assassinated a president? Charles's guest today is Paul Gregory, whose fascinating book, The Oswalds, relates his relationship with Lee and Marina. Paul tells Charles how he met the Oswalds, what he thought of them, why he still feels some "shame," why he thinks all the conspiracy theories are bunk, and why it took him six decades to put his story to paper

Charles's monologue is on Florida's proposed "constitutional carry" bill, which, despite all the hysterics, actually represents a rather modest reform to the status quo.
