"It's personal now ." The CIA's failure at the Bay of Pigs does not end the fight with Cuba; instead, the heat's actually going to get turned up. The Kennedy brothers are now even more committed to defeating Castro.
Join Gordon and David as they detail the ongoing assassination attempts on Castro. The mob is back, attempting to use the exact same plan as before: poison pills. Hear the wild stories of near-misses, including the frozen poison pill that burst inside a freezer just before a waiter could put it in Castro's chocolate shake. This is the tense calm before a new, much larger crisis is about to engulf the Kennedy administration.
