[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.
