Joe Kennedy III on Politics, Energy, and His Famous Family
About this episode
Joe Kennedy III discusses his work in renewable energy, family politics, and the public's fascination with the Kennedy legacy.
If you lived around Massachusetts in the 1980s, you might remember hearing ads for 1-877-JOE-4-OIL. Joe Kennedy II dedicated much of his life to delivering discounted oil to families in need through his organization Citizens Energy. Now his son, former Massachusetts Congressman Joe Kennedy III is picking up the mantle, and helping the organization shift to renewables – think solar panels. The younger Kennedy joins Shirley Leung on Say More to talk about his new energy ventures, family politics, and the public’s enduring fascination with the Kennedys. Email us at saymore@globe.com.
