Who Killed JFK?

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.

    Excellent.
    Loved how they kept the story going in order and not jumping back and forth. Interviews were great.
  • The American With A Brain
    Interesting, but too big of a leap.
    Interesting podcast and asked a few very interesting questions! However, they followed them up with big leaps in logic saying “that must mean…” with things that do not naturally or necessarily follow. Not very good.
  • Prince of Darkness666
    I don’t agree and still think it’s great.
    I think the whole conclusion and a lot of the evidence are wrong, but I still love the podcast. The presentation is excellent. Interviews are superb. And it’s fun.

    Who killed JFK
    I too thought the commercials are way overboard, confusing with the story. That said the series presents a riveting story about JFK murder. It’s a mystery that has kept me spellbound since as a twelve year old I watched it live from my home as I was home from school. Excellent investigative journalism.
  • TrumpReleasedFiles!25
    Thank you
    First off, way too many commercials. It wasn’t like this before. It feels like we are listening to one long continuous ad now. The ads make the information get lost. The podcast though is very well done. In depth, informative, laid out as clearly as any puzzle can be. I like the voices, and the way they lead you down the rabbit hole slowly, thoughtfully, and carefully. The puzzle is so entangled it is easier for people (in my experience) to just go along with the mainstream official story, but for those of us who care to know the truth, this offers truth to you, if you’re patient enough to listen.

    Garbage
    Slanted, biased and SCRIPTED???
  • Heatherisonfire
    Good but drawn out
    Episodes too short and heavy on ads. I feel like this could have condensed to longer episodes and just less of them. Otherwise the content is good, I’m not sure if we learned anything new but I appreciate the journalistic quality of the podcast.
  • Bvhjgfderyu
    Theory of a gunman on the overpass.
    Where is the physical evidence of bullets in the backseat of the presidential limo.

    My humble Review
    Not a big fan of the Hosts outside this podcast, and barely can tolerate Rob Reiner but this pod cast leaves me wanting more. This is an excellent pod cast and wish they could dive deeper with more episodes. Great story telling
  • Phillies Fan 2010
    Excellent Show!
    I found the pod cast to be engaging and a lot more detail than I expected. I thought Mr. Reiner and Soledad to be interesting and they provided a ton of information that just makes you think how our government thought they could pull this off and no one would ask any questions. It was clear to me ever since I saw the JFK movie that Oswald could not have pulled this off by himself but now, I think he was just in fact a patsy and was not involved at all. The Warren Commission just went through the motions and hoped everyone would just except the trash they put out. When you talk about motive and who had the most to gain you have to look at LBJ. I don’t think they could have done this without his involvement.
  • Kaitlyn Garcia
    Just OK
    I stopped listening after episode three. I was very interested in the subject, but something about the way this podcast is structured and narrated isn’t very engaging to me. It’s a bit repetitive. We get it, they’re clearly was more than one shooter. Why not start developing faster who you think it is? I don’t know. I think it is a good informative podcast which is why I gave it three stars instead of only one. However, I just wish that there was better storytelling. To keep you engaged on what should be a very interesting subject matter.
  • Kosj1555
    Soledad is terrible
    Interesting topic and commentary but the host is atrocious and almost impossible to listen to
  • ES12=03
    Thanks Rob
    Very well done , kinda slow at times . This podcast is for people who don’t have a strong understanding of the subject . Very educational for those looking to understand the conspiracy. Rob , why do you bring up Howard Hunt several times , bring on his son to comment and never mention his deathbed confession ? If you take the time to bring him up as being in Dallas that day with a mob boss, why not mention he claims to have been involved and assisted in helping some of the shooters escape ? I do thank you for the time and effort you have put into this project and your patriotism .
  • tianagorham
    Excellent!
    I was transported back to being dismissed from junior high school and seeing everyone on the public transportation crying. We weren’t told why we were being sent home, but when we boarded the bus and heard what had happened, it felt unreal. As an immigrant, naturalized that year at 13, I was struck with a deep sorrow. This podcast was better than any glossed over history lesson about this subject. Thank you.
  • magaoingo
    Very Scripted and Unnatural
    Don’t get me wrong, a lot of bold assertions and innuendo. However, it is so scripted and poorly acted out, feels so fake. Don’t call Soledad OBrien the host, she is acting, badly.
  • Ccbg77

    Impossible to follow
    A bunch of dead people accused of doing a lot of things with no proof. You need to be a history geek to make sense of this.

    M.E. Ruby
    There is was an M.E. Ruby that was released from incarceration in the 40s by the Johnson ‘in crowd’ I wonder if there is any relation to Jack Ruby
  • Buxtonnn
    Finally
    I wish somehow this could be made into a movie. Great stuff. I am convinced more than ever that is was not just Oswald. Unfortunate that the release of the documents that remain was suppressed by Biden and Trump. So we will never be able to see it all. Another wish would be for someone to try and refute this and try to prove it was just Oswald now. Would be interesting to see point - counterpoint.

    Meathead
    I can understand why Rob Reiner would do something like this, but shame on Soledad for taking part in it. It seriously undermines her credibility as a journalist. I’m a big fan of JFK, and not a fan of the CIA. I’ve long been fascinated by this story and was well-disposed to believing in a conspiracy. I’ve read plenty of books on it, but having read Posner’s ‘Case Closed’ and Bugliosi’s ‘Reclaiming History,’ I had to come to the reluctant conclusion that all of these conspiracy theories have been debunked. Oswald acted alone. To ask “who benefited?” is the wrong way to look at something like this. You need to look at the facts. I know it’s hard to accept, but sometimes a beloved “somebody” gets taken out by a “nobody.”
  • americanwomanUSA
    Tone deaf
    Soledad’s sing songy delivery is highly annoying. This is the story of tragedy and her “happy” voice doesn’t fit the tone of this historical event. Rob is a meathead so nope
  • Pancookery
    Concise storytelling
    There is a mountain of evidence and there are podcasts that spend episode after episode going over these details. This is a well narrated and entertaining explanation of one very possible theory behind who killed JFK. Doesn’t deep dive on the details but instead paints a convincing bigger picture of the event and the times leading up to it. It all happened before my time but I previously failed to appreciate the magnitude of the Cuban missile crisis and how the US response may have doomed JFK.
  • BlockyCactus01
    Great Listen
    I really loved this podcast and each episode was pretty good and fun to listen to. It flowed well and it never got too confusing with the many threads they followed. I liked it and thought it was a nice and fresh way to approach the JFK assassination
  • T-Wolfs Fan
    Who Killed David Kahn
    In October of 2012 Kevin Love got drunk, punched a wall and broke his hand. Schwartz spins it as knuckle pushups, and then has Woj do a hit piece with Love trashing Wolves to change the narrative. To this day that is how fans remember it.

    Clear and present danger
    The show not only makes the complicated connections to the guilty parties, but brings the receipts in the form of recorded interviews from the past and present, documents and Warren Commission omissions. Superb job in explaining motives as well.
  • Whatusaymark
    This Show Sparked Something In Me
    It wasn’t until this podcast that I began taking a much deeper dive into the JFK assassination story. It happened before I was born, but I’ve not listened to as detailed of a podcast on it as this one. It certainly ignited me to keep digging deeper and finding out more and more. I think Rob and Soledad did an outstanding job with this series, and I only wish they had done more episodes.

    No LBJ or Mac Wallace
    Enjoyed the pod, but felt it was missing a large piece of the puzzle. LBJ had massive motive and Mac Wallace, his hired gun, left a fingerprint in the depository.

    JFK
    This is long overdue. Instead of the Government telling the public who/how our beloved President was killed they are hiding us from the truth. Thank you Rob for bringing this to us. I’ve come to the conclusion I will never hear the truth. Wonderful presentation. Leaves me wanting more. Problem is the more I look into it it only seems to raise more questions. Dorothy Killgalens murder is never brought up in many movies. One theory I heard was JFK was put into the trunk of the car & switched with Tippit who supposedly was a ‘dead ringer’ of JFK.

    Great listen - Epic and Thoroughly presented
  • raqkelley
    Best podcast I’ve ever listened to!
    Absolutely riveting and revealing. I couldn’t stop listening. SO. WELL. DONE!
  • KMLGV
    Having trouble with Oswald not pulling trigger
    I believe some of Mr. Reiner’s theories are plausible and I do believe there were at least 2 shooters, one in 6th Floor BD window and one behind picket fence on grassy knoll. But, he never addressed who could have possibly been the shooter in the BD window if it was not Oswald? I do believe Oswald was a patsy and was set up to take the fall but who else could have pulled the trigger up there and get out undetected?

    Amazingly researched & engrossing presentation
  • WESLEY Jay
    Informative
    Rob Reiner does fantastic job
  • Sketch prep
    Meh
    If you’ve read anything meaningful about this topic, this is a slipshod review intent on making the presenters money. There’s literally no counter-evidence presented and odd things like the magic bullet and the gurney bullet are presented as Q-anon level conspiracies. Check out The Rest Is History review recently as a counterbalance to this.
  • 6thtryatanickname
    Amazing do-series series. Highly recommend.
    If you didn’t question what really happened to JFK you will after listening to this. After this series of podcast, anytime, I’m discussing countries whose leaders were overthrown by CA plots I will start with the United States before going on to Guatemala, El Salvador, and so many other countries. I would give everything I own to be able to sit down with that secret Service agent in the last episode and polygraph examiner to ask him questions. I’m 95% sure that this is just a part of everything he knows. Hopefully, he has more that’ll be exposed when he passes away.
  • genki girl maui
    Did Fed. Reserve Fund ….
    JFK was assassinated 11 months after he bypassed the Fed.Reserve and went straight to the Treasury Department…. Federal Reserve = Federal Corporation = Deep State Swap…. Would love to see some next episodes with in-depth research addressing who funded the two rogue men, the mafia and the CIA… All wars are bankers wars…..there’s a video on Rumble about this topic…
  • daily wire fan
    Do you have anything in a Carl Reiner, instead?
    Sounded like it might be good, but then Rob Reiner. Hard pass. Watch America’s Untold Stories instead.

    Review
    Fantastic! Binge worthy! Well done by both narrators. No outrageous new theories that are self serving promotions. Simply laid out presentation of documents, testimony, and past covert programs and personalities of the CIA and other intelligence communities.
  • CBuk61
    If the assassination of JFK happened today, this would be censored as disinformation
    This plays like an interview of Meathead the conspiracy theorist. Some interesting stuff but too much about feelings. Of course, the Warren Commission was disinformation! Amazingly, this “never trust anyone over 30” hippy, now thinks government censorship, disinformation and election interference is a good thing.
  • Peanutlabdog
    Lazy reporting. Sensational garbage.
    There are basic, true, indisputable facts that this podcast has blatantly ignored in order to arrive at their predetermined conclusion. From the get-go, this podcast has it wrong. Paul Landis was not a Secret Service agent for President Kennedy. He was one of Mrs. Kennedy’s agents. If you can’t get this basic level of fact correct, you have no credibility. Also, this podcast conveniently chose to exclude interviewing the actual Secret Service agent who climbed on the back of the limo to save Mrs. Kennedy and try to save the President: Clint Hill, most likely because his account doesn’t feed the podcaster’s narrative. Agent Jack Ready was on the follow up vehicle on the right running board in front of Paul Landis, obstructing Paul’s view. That is not to say Mr. Landis saw nothing, but it is fact. Mr. Landis also claims that the Warren Commission didn’t interview any Secret Service agents in the follow up car and this is easily verifiable as false. True, they did not interview Mr. Landis. They did interview Clint Hill because Clint was the only one in the follow up car to best see what happened. I have great respect for Mr. Landis and his traumatic experience, but his memory is sadly compromised now.
  • Truth Seekers 5
    Reason enough to look into Jan. 6….
    Reiner is right in one aspect….the public does want the true story, not the government’s version. Why not do a deep dive into Jan. 6? You say that the government was behind Kennedy’s assassination; could it also have been behind the false narrative of the Jan. 6 march to the Capitol? I say the government had too much power in both episodes.

    5 stars!
    So good! Totally worth the listen.

    Well-researched & utterly convincing
    I thought I knew a lot and yet there were so many new discoveries in the last couple years that really brought some threads together. Whether you love history, conspiracies, interesting characters, or a good who-done-it, this podcast will really entertain AND blow your mind. My two big takeaways from this podcast are that Oswald and his young family were treated wretchedly; and that JFK was incredibly courageous. As a nation, we lost so much in not uncovering and airing the truth as it happened and bringing those responsible to justice. It’s revolting to think how a such a small collection of people, bound together by paranoia, anger, and trauma, could change the trajectory of global consciousness so deeply dark. I hope each one came to see how vile their actions were, and felt the profound weight of it every minute of every day for the remainder of their lives. Further, I hope all young folks get to know a true statesman, and learn how much we must MISTRUST and verify every single thing we read, no matter how compelling the narrative. Finally, I hope ALL of us remember that we must fight for truth every day. Especially now as we’re all being bombarded with propaganda nearly hourly. My personal rule is this: If my cortisol levels are jumping, someone else is winning. Step back and remember how important your peace of mind is and how best to protect it while still being there for yourself and your community. And VOTE!!! Even if it’s for what you believe is the lesser of 2 evils. Vote like it was a hard-fought right that we will ALL lose if YOU don’t do your part.

    Excellent!
    A must listen. Listen all the way through, it is crazy what they document thoroughly and the investigation uncovers.
