The Tripp tapes

WASHINGTON (AllPolitics, November 17) -- The House Judiciary Committee released Tuesday 22 hours of audio tapes secretly recorded by Linda Tripp of conversations with Monica Lewinsky and others.

Tapes 1-30 contain phone conversations between Tripp and Lewinsky, while tapes 31-37 are "body wires," recordings Tripp made while equipped with a recording device from the FBI. Transcripts of the tapes were released previously.

(Editor's note: Some of the tapes contain explicit language or frank talk about adult subject matter and are not suitable for children. Both the audio tapes and the trancripts have been edited by the House Judiciary Committee for language and content. Periods of silence in the streams are due to those congressional edits.)
