Episode 182 tells the story of Gordon Novel. After winning Jim Garrison's confidence and becoming his security officer during the district attorney's investigation of the JFK assassination, it would soon become known that Novel was working for the CIA and had infiltrated Garrison's team. Garrison would eventually come to understand this double cross and seek to extradite Novel, who eventually fled to Ohio to avoid extradition by Garrison. Garrison knew that Novel had participated in the Houma raid and he wanted answers as he believed that Novel knew much more about that actual assassination than he was admitting. With the truth revealed that Novel was working for the CIA when he infiltrated Garrsion's team,  Garrison himself became even more resolute in his thinking that the CIA was either involved or  was covering up something very sinister as it related to the assassination. Novel as a character is one of the most fascinating individuals in this passion play that we call the Kennedy assassination.  In later years, he was involved in Watergate, the post Waco investigation and the related review of the FBI's performance there, and of all things, his private investigative work helped John DeLorean discover the presence of a sting operation that was contrived to entrap him.  A sting operation that proved to be a conspiracy between Britain's Conservative Party and both British and American intelligence services. Novel was a believer in extraterrestrial beings and technology, and asserted that the government, based on its capture of an alien spacecraft,  had reversed engineered the ability to generate limitless energy that could be made available on a widespread basis to all of mankind,  and thereby significantly reduce global warming and create an economic system that would free the world of the geopolitical dynamics related to energy.  He also consulted with  celebrities such as  Michael Jackson and Jean Claude Van Damme regarding security issues. Come join us for the wild and wacky story of Gordon Novel. 

Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction. No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.
