JFK Revisited; then Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters | Richard Syrett's Strange Planet

11PM THE JFK ASSASSINATION: THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS

Richard welcomes one of the most respected researchers and writers on the political assassinations of the 1960s to discuss a brand new documentary film on the JFK Assassination directed by Oliver Stone, titled Through the Looking Glass. The film is based on new JFK files that have been released since Stone's Oscar winning film, JFK.

Guest: Jim DiEugenio wrote the script for Oliver Stone's new documentary film, Through the Looking Glass. Jim is the author of Destiny Betrayed, about the Garrison investigation of the Kennedy assassination, first published in 1992, with a second, greatly revised edition issued in 2012; and Reclaiming Parkland, published in 2013, reprinted in expanded form in 2016, and then reissued with additional material in 2018 as The JFK Assassination: The Evidence Today, which offers a detailed critical examination of the Warren Commission's evidence and conclusions as presented by Vincent Bugliosi's Reclaiming History, along with an analysis of the CIA's influence in Hollywood.

He is also the co-author and editor of The Assassinations: Probe Magazine on JFK, MLK, RFK and Malcolm X. He co-edited Probe Magazine from 1993-2000 and was a guest commentator on the anniversary issue of the film JFK re-released by Warner Brothers in 2013.

12AM KEN KESEY, THE MERRY PRANKSTERS, LSD, AND THE MIRACLE OF STRUCTURED WATER

Richard welcomes an artist who will discuss his many adventures while traveling with Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters in the mid 1960s. He'll also discuss a revolutionary water- ionization system that transforms regular tap water into pure, healthy, electrolytically-reduced and hydrogen-rich drinking water.

Guest: Mike Lancaster was barely a teenager when he hooked up with the famous Merry Pranksters, a collection of comrades and followers of American author Ken Kesey in 1964. Kesey and the Merry Pranksters lived communally at Kesey's homes in California and Oregon, and are noted for the sociological significance of a lengthy road trip they took in the summer of 1964, traveling across the United States in a psychedelic painted school bus called Furthur, organizing parties and giving out LSD.
