Season 5 Episode 22. The Witnesses Speak: New Perspectives on the JFK Assassination

Welcome to Season 5 of Who Shot JFK?, the podcast that dives deep into one of history’s most enduring mysteries. This season, titled The Witnesses Speak: New Perspectives on the JFK Assassination, we turn our focus to the voices and testimonies that have too often been overlooked. Through fresh perspectives, we aim to shed new light on a case that continues to captivate and divide the world. Drawing on the rich archives of Fair Play, a groundbreaking research project on the JFK assassination first published as an online newsletter in 1994, this season revisits the evidence, theories, and key figures at the heart of the story. Fair Play offers a treasure trove of documents, interviews, and expert analyses, challenging the official narrative and delving deep into the unresolved questions of November 22, 1963. Over the course of this season, we’ll explore the complex web of theories surrounding the assassination, revisit the lives of pivotal players like Lee Harvey Oswald and Jim Garrison, and examine critical pieces of evidence, including the Zapruder film and previously hidden testimonies. From the investigations of the Assassination Records Review Board to groundbreaking books and long-forgotten accounts, we’ll take you on a journey through the layers of history and secrecy that continue to surround the case. This isn’t just about revisiting the past—it’s about reevaluating what we think we know. With the voices of witnesses, researchers, and experts as our guide, we aim to bring clarity to one of the most contested events in modern history. So join us as we let the witnesses speak and explore new perspectives on the JFK assassination.
