{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"The Legacy of Trauma (JFK Jr. & Carolyn Bessett)","description":"Everyone calls it the Kennedy curse. Sam calls it something else: a family system doing exactly what it was designed to do.\n\nIf you watched Love Story and walked away thinking it was a tragic romance, this episode is about everything the show didn't tell you. We dive deep into the history of the Kennedy family and why calling this family \"cursed\" lets everyone off the hook for what was actually happening inside it.\n\nIn conversation, we tackle:\n\nWhy the idea of a “Kennedy curse” might just be a way to simplify a much more complicated family story\nThe role Joseph P. Kennedy played in shaping a culture of extreme ambition, competition, and political destiny\nThe pressure placed on the Kennedy sons to achieve and how that shaped the paths they took in war, politics, and public life\nWhy large, high-profile families often look “tragic” simply because more lives are being lived in the public eye\nThe impact of obscene wealth, status, and legacy on personal decision-making\nThe striking parallels between Carolyn's treatment by the press and Princess Diana's\n\nIf you’d like to support the show one of the best things you can do is leave us a review and share the pod!
