My interview with Donald McGovern the author of Murder Orthodoxies: A Non-Conspiracist's View of Marilyn Monroe's Death. You're in for a real treat! We cover A LOT of ground! The one-time tryst Marilyn Monroe and JFK had while both were in Palm Springs. She was single and he was not—there was no long-term relationship nor any intension of becoming the first lady. Now, she did have a platonic relationship with RFK. There was no need to embellish more than what it was. We also cover his alleged helicopter ride on August 4th. The Norman Mailer’s—fictional novel--as if it were a written attempt by a 13 year old boy’s fantasy to Marilyn. The Coroner’s Report—where the Autopsy shows that Marilyn was never injected--nor was she given an enema or suppository. We went over--The pills that were swallowed verses injections—it fascinating—McGovern gives an in-depth analysis of the chemicals in Marilyn’s system—and it is very compelling. You decide for yourself—I implore you to get McGovern’s book and pour over the later chapters. Again, people you need to read this book. It is deep and so well written—no book comes close to McGovern unearthing of evidence and sourced material. We poke at--Frank Capell, Anthony Summers, Donald Spoto, Ted Jordan, Dr. Greenson, Dr. Engelberg, Robert Slatzer, Jeanie Carmen, Eunice Murray, Thomas Noguchi and John Miner.
