Why people recommend it
The Kennedys by Peter Collier and David Horowitz is a biographical work examining the complex history, political power, and internal struggles of the prominent American family. On Behind the Bastards, Robert Evans referenced the book across multiple episodes while exploring the background of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Evans mentioned David Horowitz's role as a future co-writer of the book while describing his presence during Uncle Ted's 1980 reelection campaign. Furthermore, Evans discussed an excerpt from the book that was published in Playboy in 1984 as part of a public relations blitz, noting that the time and access given to the authors ultimately generated significant family fallout and controversy for Bobby Kennedy. Evans also quoted from the book to illustrate a historical anecdote regarding Patrick Joseph Kennedy's aggressive political maneuvering and blockades during a convention. Through these references, the podcast detailed how the authors gained intimate access to members of the family, resulting in a revealing and controversial historical account that exposed deep personal and political divisions within the dynasty.
