Steven Grant, creator of critically acclaimed comic books like Whisper, joins the JFK Facts Podcast to talk about “Badlands,” his fictionalized comic book series centered around the JFK assassination and its aftermath. Grant has many intriguing things to say about the mileu in which JFK was killed and the power of fiction to tell the truth.

[note: the original audio posted stated the date of LBJ and Hoover’s phone call incorrectly, this audio has been corrected. The correct date of the conversation was November 23rd, 1963.]

On today’s podcast, we play the entire 14-minute erased phone conversation between President Lyndon Johnson and FBI Director J Edgar Hoover, while host Jefferson Morley puts the deleted recording in context.

This phone conversation was almost certainly deliberately erased, but more than 60 years after JFK’s death, we can still learn something from the eerie hiss of this destroyed historical record.

Eric Hamburg is an old friend who has been involved in the JFK assassination story since forever.

In the 1980s he was a Capitol Hill aide who helped put together the legislation that became the JFK Records Act. In the 1990s he was a movie prodcuer who helped Oliver Stone put together the movie “Nixon.” Eric was friends with Howard Hunt, the Watergate burglar with JFK secrets. He is pals with John Dean, the Watergate whistleblower. And he’s still making movies with Oliver Stone, most recently a pro-nuclear power documentary.

I thought, who better to talk to about where we are now in the JFK story than Eric?
