Hi, everybody. Welcome to FireSide Chat number 308. As you all know, it's always you and me,

or you and I, to be grammatically correct. On rare occasions, I have a guest, someone

I really believe you need to meet, and I have so many questions for. In this case, it's

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is known to everyone right now as a candidate for President of

United States on the Democratic side. I actually have admired him well before he ever announced

that he would run for office. I had him on my radio show well before that to give an example,

and I'd like to tell you why. And that is, as I have so often said, the rarest of all the good

traits. There are many kind people, sweet people, loyal people, honest people, but there are very

few courageous people, and goodness on earth cannot prevail without courage. I will talk to him

about that in a moment, but that is a big factor in my wanting to have Mr. Kennedy here. I'd like

to remind you, or tell you, this is one of his recent books, The Real Anthony Fauci, Bill Gates,

Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health. And it is well worth your read,

whatever your position on any of these matters. So, Robert, welcome to my home and to the

fireside chat. Thank you so much for having me. It's a delight. So I'm going to tell you something,

I am not even sure my wife knows this, but I think this will touch you, and it may make me a tiny

bit angry at my mother, because I think she threw this out, along with my baseball card collection,

because mothers like clean rooms, you know, I actually have a letter, I had a letter from your father

when I was a freshman or sophomore in college, my hobby was shortwave radio listening, and I got

mail from Radio Peking, it was not yet Beijing, and it had been opened by the post office.

And I wrote him saying, in America, they let you get your mail unopened, and your father sent me

a personal letter back, I told him I was a college student, and that letter is gone. Imagine if I

could have showed you that letter now, and I just thought it would be sweet to tell you
