It’s November 21st. Tomorrow is the 60th anniversary of the JFK assassination, so we’re bringing you an episode from last year about the time someone made an attempt on the newly-elected president’s life, 3 years before the events in Dallas. We’ll be back with a new episode on Thursday for Thanksgiving!
