6/6/26. 40th Anniversary Special. "American Son".
About this episode
The episode features a replay of an interview with Richard Blow discussing his book 'American Son' and his relationship with John F. Kennedy Jr.
In honor of my 40th anniversary at WGTD (my first day with the station was May 27, 1986) I have been replaying some noteworthy Morning Show interviews from the past. For this seventh and final day in this special series, I have chosen this interview from 2002 with Richard Blow, former editor of GEORGE magazine and a friend of John F. Kennedy Jr. Blow's book "American Son" is an illuminating portrait of JFK Jr. from someone who knew him well and also worked side by side with him. At one point during the interview, Blow paid me a rather lavish compliment- and that was a powerful moment for me because it gave me a new sense of confidence about doing this challenging work. I've received a few more compliments in the years since, but this one is the sweetest of all because it was the first.
