About this listen

We discuss the Kennedy family wealth as portrayed in The Nine of Us: Growing Up Kennedy by Jean Kennedy Smith (specifically Rose Kennedy's historic daily summer routine in Hyannis with 9 kids) and contrast it with our own immigrant family experiences.

Also, the Portuguese did earn a footnote in this book, but we'll tell you why we wish they hadn't.
