Sketchy. 13 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 1: It's a sketchy thing to have, you know. We try 14 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 1: not to be judgmental on this show. So hot take 15 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, We'll say it. 16 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 3: Kind of a pill. Not a good dude, not a 17 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 3: great guy. 18 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: And we were, if I recall correctly, a few years back. 19 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: It was twenty nineteen. We may have been in Florida somewhere, 20 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: I think for podcast movement or something when the news 21 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: of Jeffrey Epstein Epstein's death hit. 22 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 4: Thank you're right, yeah, because he died August tenth of 23 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 4: that year, twenty nineteen. Is this the one in the 24 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 4: hotel room when we were sitting around. 25 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly, So I think we had to jump 26 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 3: in and get right to it. 27 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: Wow, you can tell that we are fascinating with this. 28 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: We don't have all of the answers. We know that 29 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein of course passed away in prison, but how 30 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: on August tenth he was found dead twenty nineteen, in 31 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: what the media and the authorities described as a apparent suicide. 32 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,559 Speaker 3: Unless you think this episode might be dated, I would 33 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 3: posit that it's actually very interesting to listen to our 34 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 3: past selves, kind of trying to make sense of the 35 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 3: little information that was out there and see how it 36 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 3: stacks up to what we know today. I would maybe 37 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 3: argue even that we don't know a hell of a 38 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: lot more. 39 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 4: Well, this is before the meme thing, before the Oh yeah, 40 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 4: and Jeffrey Epstein killed himself. 41 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 2: That's true. 42 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, we had eyes on it. The story does continue, 43 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: But for anybody who's looking hoping for a factual investigation, 44 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: this is the episode for you. So let's roll it. 45 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 5: From UFOs to psychic powers and government conspiracies. History is 46 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 5: riddled with unexplained events. You can turn back now or 47 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 5: learn the stuff they Don't want you to know a 48 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 5: production of iHeart Radios, How Stuff Works. 49 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 4: Welcome back to the show. My name is Matt, my 50 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 4: name is Noel. 51 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: They call me Ben. We are joined in spirit with 52 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: our super producer, Paul Mission controlled decand A. Most importantly, 53 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: you are You are here, and that makes this stuff 54 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: they don't want you to know going to be completely transparent, 55 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: because transparency is important to us on this show and 56 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:14,079 Speaker 1: hopefully important to those of us listening along. We are 57 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: not in the studio today. 58 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 4: No, We're in a hotel in Orlando. 59 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 3: Is it a motel or a hotel or a holiday 60 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 3: and it's a little RESORTI actually there's a lazy river 61 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 3: outside a pretty dope water slide situation that we have 62 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 3: not had a chance to enjoy yet, but maybe after this. 63 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: I heard good things about the water slide. It's true 64 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: a series of circumstances have found us here in Orlando, 65 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: but we also found ourselves compelled to update a very 66 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: important topic that you have doubtlessly read about in the 67 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: news recently, and you have known about since at least January. 68 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: If you are a longtime listener of our show, perhaps 69 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: we can sum it up Thus, Lee I don't know 70 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: you want to do some foreshadowing from the New York Times. 71 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 4: Yes, so, yesterday, as we're recording this, New York Times 72 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 4: opinion columnist Ross Do thought, I think that's how you 73 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 4: say it. He wrote a piece called Jeffrey Epstein and 74 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 4: When to Take Conspiracies Seriously interesting. Yeah, and we highly 75 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 4: recommend that you read this just first of all. But 76 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 4: here is just a little bit of a taste. 77 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, a couple of pretty quotable quotes here. This is 78 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 3: just so so validating for us as a show. 79 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 2: I love this. 80 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 3: The challenge in thinking about a case like the suspicious 81 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: suicide of Jeffrey Epstein, the supposed billionaire who spent his 82 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 3: life acquiring sex slaves and serving as a procureur to 83 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: the ruling class, can be summed up in two sentences. 84 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 3: Most conspiracy theories are false, but often some of the 85 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 3: things they're trying to explain are real. 86 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's pretty intense, and that's all you really need 87 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 4: to know. That's just how he gets into the article. 88 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 4: But he goes on to explain essentially what we do 89 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 4: on this show exactly. 90 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: Those last two sentences could kind of be a thesis 91 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 3: statement or a mission statement for this show, So many 92 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 3: of the things we talk about are a mix of 93 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 3: provable things and completely things that you would wildly conjecture 94 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 3: on whether they're real or faults or trumped up to 95 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 3: explain things by kind of using reverse logic to impose 96 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 3: a narrative on things that we maybe don't fully understand, 97 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 3: whether it's the inner workings of the government or UFOs 98 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 3: or anything like that, the you know, behind the scenes 99 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 3: dirty dealings of the rich and powerful. But with this 100 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 3: Epstein case, to your point, Ben, we covered about a 101 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 3: year ago. Everything we covered in that episode pretty much 102 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 3: just proved to be true. 103 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: And so this is an update on our earlier episode 104 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 1: about the disgraced financier and proven child abuser Jeffrey Epstein. 105 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: Given the graphic and troubling nature of this story, this 106 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 1: episode may not be appropriate for all audiences. Things get 107 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: pretty dark. They get dark pretty quickly. Without replaying the 108 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: entire episode in which we explore Epstein's biography and the 109 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: high level outline of his crimes and hism, we can 110 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: simply say that he was often advertising himself as an 111 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: enigmatic hedge fund manager. The problem was that his clients, however, 112 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: many existed were secret. And the weird thing is hedge 113 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: fund managers leave a large traceable footprint if they are 114 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: actually hedge fund manager. 115 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 3: And yet the source of much of his wealth remains 116 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 3: kind of a mystery. 117 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: Even the amount of his wealth remains because in the 118 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: quote that you just read, right, billionaire is in air 119 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: quotes right. So let's go ahead, and if you haven't 120 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: listened to that first episode, pause this and check it 121 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: out because this is valuable information. We'll hang on, We'll 122 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: be right here. Great, Okay, so we're all caught up. 123 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: Here are the facts. On January fourth of this year, 124 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: when we released this episode How Jeffrey Epstein Broke the 125 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: Law and Got Away, we explored the rise and fall 126 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: of this mysterious money man, Jeffrey Epstein. He was famous 127 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: in financial circles for his secret list of clients, a 128 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: few of whom were publicly identified, the founder of Victoria's 129 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: Secret being one. He was also famous in his social 130 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: circle for being a massage fanatic, constantly surrounded by women 131 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: and children. You'll hear this referred to in the media 132 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: as underage girls, right or young women. To be very 133 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: very clear, the gamut or age range we're talking about 134 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: here does include like children who are fourteen. This guy 135 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: was a serial offender and showed no signs of letting 136 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: up on his behavior. In fact, it's due largely to 137 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: the efforts of a journalist named Julie Brown and her 138 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: team at the Miami Herald that the national public was 139 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: even aware of this in the mainstream. Epstein's story made 140 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: national headlines in twenty eighteen. The Herald identified eighty victims 141 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: and located around sixty. The spooky thing is that they 142 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: all had the same story. When they were either teenagers 143 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: or children, Epstein and his crew had recruited them to 144 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: participate in sexual activity, including forcing them to have sex 145 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: with other people at his command. 146 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 4: A lot of times very old men. 147 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: Sure Dershowitz, one Alan Dershowitz. 148 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 3: I mean, that's what makes this extra disturbing is the 149 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 3: fact that he was grooming these people to essentially the 150 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 3: term that was using that op ed was become sex slaves. 151 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 3: And we've heard some things come out in the news 152 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 3: too recently about how he intended to recede the human 153 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 3: race by impregnating as many women as possible, like with 154 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 3: his in his image kind of you know, just a 155 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 3: complete psychopath and megalomaniac and just absolute degenerate. 156 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: And would never go to jail ordinarily. Right. 157 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 4: Well, that's why we were that's why we made that episode, right, 158 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 4: because we realized that he had gotten away with it. 159 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 4: We put it in the title, you know, thankfully as 160 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 4: we're going to continue on here he didn't get away 161 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 4: with it, or at least he was going to be 162 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 4: held account. 163 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: Uh, you know, that's very optimistic. 164 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 4: I think it seemed as though it was actually happening 165 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 4: this year. 166 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, agreed. So what we're talking about here is legal 167 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: troubles kick into high gear in the early two thousand, 168 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: way before The Herald begins writing about it. In July 169 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: of two thousand and six, the FBI began investigating Epstein 170 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: and something called Operation Leap Yeer. Operation Leapyear resulted in 171 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: an indictment in June of two thousand and seven. It 172 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: was like fifty three pages long, never made it to 173 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: a grand jury. And that's when a guy named Alexander 174 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: Acosta comes into. 175 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 3: Play, easily, one of the other main villains in this story. 176 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, he was at the time the US Attorney 177 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: for the Southern District of Florida, and he agreed to 178 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: a very unusual plea deal with Epstein. The deal was 179 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: that they would grant him immunity from all federal criminal 180 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: charges for his crimes. They would also grant immunity for 181 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: four co conspirators that were named, and additionally anybody else, 182 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: anybody else, they'd be considered a co conspirator. A potential 183 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 1: conspirators would also go unnamed and receive immunity. 184 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 3: If that's not just giving a straight up pass, I don't. 185 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 2: Know what is. 186 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's. 187 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 3: Imhorrant, and I think he was. There was a time 188 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 3: even during the proceedings where he was allowed to go 189 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 3: to work right. 190 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, twelve hours he could be gone. 191 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: Right and his prison door after his sentence, his prison 192 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: door wasn't locked. He was able to use his own driver. 193 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: He formed a foundation shortly before he was in this 194 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: work release program and dissolved it right after. So he 195 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: would go to the office for his foundation, yeah, every day. Also, 196 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: the tricky thing about this is that the victims were 197 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: not notified of this plea deal, of course, so they 198 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: had no say in it. According to the Miami Herald, 199 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: when this non prosecution agreement occurs, it shuts down the 200 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: FBI probe into whether there were more victims, whether there 201 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 1: were more conspiratory. 202 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 3: The name alone is laughable. A non prosecution agreement basically 203 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 3: means you're fine, we're you're you're free. We're gonna leave 204 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 3: you alone. 205 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 206 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: For a terrible, terrible comparison, imagine if you are part 207 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: of a club where you recreationally go out and hop 208 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: in a car and try to run over children, and 209 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: then when you get caught, they say, Okay, well, you 210 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 1: know sometimes people drive on the sidewalk, and we're not 211 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: gonna We're not gonna identify you, We're not gonna identify 212 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: your buddies who are in the car. Yeah, we'll just 213 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: let him keep driving. 214 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 3: And we're not even going to reach out to the 215 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 3: parents of the children that you ran over. 216 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: Exactly exactly. But there's a wrinkle here already, because when 217 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: after after Acosta agrees to this, he becomes a higher 218 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: up in the current presidential administration, and later when he 219 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: is faced with this huge WTF moment, right, he says 220 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: that he was more or less forced to offer a 221 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: lenient please deal, which is a very diplomatic way to 222 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: put that. He was told by someone that Epstein quote 223 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: belonged to intelligence was quote above his pay grade and 224 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: that he should leave it alone. 225 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 3: WHOA, but Acosta took a die for this eventually, didn't 226 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 3: he like he got he got some come up and 227 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: for his part in all of this. 228 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: That's right, that's right, Nold, Because he was the Labor 229 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: secretary under the Trump administration, and in July he announced 230 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 1: that his resignation that he was going to walk away 231 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: from it. I don't know if that's the sort of 232 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: thing you can walk away from. But here's the rest 233 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: of the way this works out, speaking that work release stuff. 234 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: On June thirty, two thousand and eight, he pled guilty 235 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 1: to a state charge. One of two of the way 236 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: they phrased it is procuring for prostitution a girl below 237 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: age eighteen, for which he sentenced eighteen months in prison. 238 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: Most sex offenders in Florida are sent to state prison. 239 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: Epstein instead was housed in a private wing of the 240 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: Palm Beach County Stockade, and after three and a half months, 241 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 1: he was allowed to leave the jail on work release 242 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: for twelve hours day, six days a week. Also, just 243 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: think about how they phrase that sentencing. They're calling these 244 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: victims sex workers, you know what I mean? They're assigning 245 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: agency to children. 246 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 4: It makes me really sad. 247 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 3: No, the whole thing is I mean, I think this 248 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 3: is one of the I thought when we did that episode, 249 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 3: it was one of the most disturbing things we had discussed, 250 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 3: because on the one hand, you don't want to you 251 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 3: can look at a guy like Epstein who represents this 252 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 3: unattainable level of opulence and privilege, right, and you can 253 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 3: view it through the lens of man. What if every rich, 254 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 3: powerful man is a secret sex predator? 255 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 2: You know what I mean? 256 00:14:58,400 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 4: Well, it makes you It made me think of the 257 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 4: next guy. 258 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 3: No, yeah, for sure. I mean it's just like, you know, 259 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 3: given complete agency to do what thou wilt'st are these 260 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 3: men going to exercise their every you know, debauched kind 261 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 3: of impulse? Right? 262 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: Is it going to be a real like Marquis de 263 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: Saude kind of story where people just push a limit 264 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: to see whether it exists? 265 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 3: I think I'm The point I'm getting at, though, is no, 266 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 3: it's that's not the case. Likely true. It's easy to 267 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 3: look at a monster like this and what he represents 268 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 3: and apply that across the board to like all rich 269 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 3: and powerful men, especially in the me two times that 270 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 3: we're living in where so many of these folks are 271 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 3: finally having to answer for what they've done. But no, 272 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 3: I think there are rich and powerful men that are not, 273 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 3: you know, child sex predators. 274 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure there are quite a few people who are. 275 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: Like their idea of something you know, wrong and taboo 276 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: is like sneaking a milkshake when it's not cheat day 277 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 1: on their diet, right, and their personal trainer is going 278 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: to be really mad. But people are just people, right, 279 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: no matter how deified or vilified they are. This guy 280 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: is a monster, and he had the means to pursue 281 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: his goals. He also paid the Sheriff's office one hundred 282 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: and twenty eight grand from a nonprofit to pay for 283 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: the cost of his prison circumstances or his stockade circumstances. 284 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 3: Like extra amenities and things or what. 285 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, he had access to attorney room where there was 286 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: a TV installed for him. You know, they dedicated that 287 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: wing of the county stockade to him. His office was monitored, 288 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: The office of the foundation he set up in Dissults 289 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: was monitored by what we're called permit deputies, and he 290 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: directly paid for their overtime. These guys were required to 291 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: wear suits, not uniforms, and they checked in welcomed guests 292 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: at the front desk. For a time. He is essentially 293 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: a free man until there's renewed scrutiny into the case 294 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: and he's ultimately arrested in New Jersey on sex trafficking 295 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: charges on July sixth, twenty nineteen. Was justice around the corner, right. 296 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 3: So leading up to that, I mean, this whole bougie 297 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 3: jail situation, I think he said, been lasted around eighteen 298 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 3: months and then it was just back to business as usual, 299 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 3: you know, making piles of cash and presumably even bringing 300 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 3: in more victims you know, into this sex ring quite possibly. 301 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: And again it goes down to the means, if somebody 302 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 1: does not have this social or financial clout, then they're 303 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: not going to, you know, have a private island, They're 304 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: not going to have a Lolita Express. They're certainly not 305 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: going to get a non prosecution agreement. This guy seems 306 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: set to get away until that, until he is re 307 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 1: arrested on July sixth, and he is he is a 308 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:08,479 Speaker 1: high value target for at least factions of the government, uh, 309 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: the ones who are against child abuse. I did I 310 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: was I thought that was a united front, but that 311 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 1: appears to not entirely be the case. 312 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 4: That's a that's one way to phrase it. Ben Right, 313 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 4: this herd who are are not against it? 314 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 3: What specifically led to the quote unquote renewed interests because 315 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 3: what I was so surprised about was that everything we 316 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 3: talked about in that first episode, it was all the 317 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 3: same stuff that came back around. Right, There wasn't anything new, 318 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 3: like what that I'm aware of. Maybe correct me if 319 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,479 Speaker 3: I'm wrong, but like, what was it that that, you 320 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 3: know that kind of poked the bear and got things 321 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 3: started again? 322 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: Julie Brown and the Miami Herald in twenty eighteen. That's 323 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: exactly what it was. And what's what's strange is that 324 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: when we were talking about this, it may have been 325 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: just the three of us off air. We based on 326 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 1: Jimmy's we were all pretty certain that this guy would 327 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: never make it to trial. Yeah, you know, there's too 328 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: much dirt, there's too much murkiness, And in fact, there 329 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: was what appeared to be a possible suicide attempt perpetrated 330 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: on July twenty third of this year. 331 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, he was found unconscious, I believe, on the floor 332 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 3: of his cell with bruising around his neck. 333 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, and there were questions about whether or not it 334 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 4: was a self inflicted injury on his neck, or if 335 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 4: maybe his cellmate had done it. Lots and lots of questions. 336 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 4: But it put him on suicide watch, and it made him, 337 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 4: i mean kind of obviously somebody who's done all of 338 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 4: these things and then made the connections within the high 339 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 4: levels of society that you would want to watch this 340 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 4: guy closely. So that occurred on July twenty third. That's 341 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 4: I mean July sixth to July twenty third. That's not 342 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 4: a lot of time from that amount time he was arrested, 343 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 4: put into jail, then attempted suicide at least allegedly. Then 344 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 4: this weekend, at six thirty am on August tenth, twenty nineteen, 345 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 4: Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his cell at the 346 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 4: Metropolitan Correctional Center it's also known as the MCC, the 347 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 4: one that's in New York City. That's a very if 348 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 4: we're talking about this facility. It is locked down to 349 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 4: the extreme and he was found dead there, apparently from suicide. 350 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 1: So what happened we'll explore this after a word from 351 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: our sponsors. Here's where it gets crazy. Strap in friends 352 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: and neighbors, fellow conspiracy realists, we are heading down a 353 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: deep rabbit hole. It should be no surprise that many people, 354 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 1: including the FBI and the Department of Justice, are calling 355 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 1: for investigations into Epstein's demise. At this point, an autopsy 356 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: has been conducted, more than one actually, but not yet 357 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: released to the public. There are a lot of facts 358 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: that are going to come to light in the coming days, 359 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: and this therefore will be an imperfect update. So we 360 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: are attempting to We're attempting to gather what we know 361 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: now with the understanding that there will most definitely be 362 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: new things unfolding. There isn't just one conspiracy theory in 363 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 1: play here. There are many. For example, you know, if 364 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 1: we look at the broad categories of it, there is 365 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,360 Speaker 1: number one the idea that Jeffrey Epstein did not take 366 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: his own life. Even mainstream print publications and mass media 367 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: news networks are referring to it as an apparent suicide. 368 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, and there's something to be said here. If we 369 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 4: think back to that New York Times article to up 370 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:04,679 Speaker 4: ed at the beginning, it is not inconceivable that somebody 371 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 4: that he was connected to would want him dead rather 372 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 4: than be able to speak, especially in a trial, especially 373 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 4: when there's discovery that's going to occur, right for evidence 374 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:21,159 Speaker 4: discovery basically, and depending on what they find in his 375 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 4: home and all of these things, you can imagine that 376 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 4: somebody he worked with, and when I say worked with, 377 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 4: I mean procured a children for or maybe just young 378 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 4: women for. 379 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: So not in a hedge fund managing capacity exactly. 380 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 3: Let's talk a little bit about some of those documents 381 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 3: that were unsealed right before he supposedly took his own life, 382 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 3: further implicating many more high level potential sex offenders that 383 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 3: he may have helped connect with underage women. 384 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, allegations right from Virginia. Robert's last name gi U 385 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: F fre You've free. We do have to say that 386 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: at this point these are these are allegations, but they 387 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: do exist in a legal sense. The documents differ from 388 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: some earlier uh some earlier information because they named some 389 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 1: new people. They named New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, former 390 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: US Senator George Mitchell, they name members of the royal family, 391 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: Prince Andrew. 392 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 3: And it certainly feeds into this narrative that there was 393 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 3: some foul play at work here because I believe you know, 394 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 3: he said he was taken off suicide watch. Yeah, but 395 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 3: he did have guards who are supposed to look check 396 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 3: in on him. And new reports show that these guards 397 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 3: actually falsified reports that they checked in on him when 398 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 3: they in fact did not for the entire day. Uh 399 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 3: and he was dead for several hours before he was found. 400 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 3: You know, that's pretty fishy. But we don't even have 401 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 3: to get into the speculative territory. There's enough real juicy 402 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 3: information here on its own. Back to the idea of 403 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 3: folks who flew on that plane, the Lolita Express, we 404 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 3: know from flight documents that both Bill Clinton and Donald 405 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 3: Trump flew on that plane, in addition to the philosopher 406 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 3: Stephen Pinker. Just some very odd associates of this man. 407 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: And then, you know, we have to also think about 408 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: the level of access very wealthy or powerful people will have. 409 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: Because someone met that guy at a party doesn't mean 410 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 1: they were part of his circle, you know what I mean, 411 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: part of his crimes. They may have just donated to 412 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: the same nonprofit or something like that. However, we do 413 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: see the rise of a lot of very disturbing and 414 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: valid questions such as his cellmate, which was transferred out 415 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: of the cell the like the day of the death 416 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 1: or very shortly beforehand. And we also see, you know, 417 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: the suicide Watch is a big question for everybody. Suicide 418 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: Watch is supposed to require twenty four to seven monitoring, 419 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 1: also active physical check ins, psychicals, things like that, and 420 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: those were not happening at the time of his death. 421 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 4: And there are questions about even if his own attorneys 422 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 4: had asked to take him off of suicide Watch and 423 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 4: stop all the surveillance from happening on him. 424 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: So let's go back to the idea that he did 425 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: not take his own life but was murdered. The idea 426 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: that there was homicide somebody wanted to prevent news coming out, 427 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:43,159 Speaker 1: somebody with the means to exert this sort of influence. 428 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: And it's interesting because in right wing circles, right wing 429 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 1: US political circles, the theory that we'll see thrown around 430 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: the most is that the Clinton family had Epstein murdered. 431 00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 1: The idea goes back to the belief that you know, 432 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: you've seen the hashtag Clinton body count or something. The 433 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 1: idea goes back to the concept that the Clinton family 434 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: has murdered multiple people you'll hear seth Rich shout it 435 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: out on that. Maybe shout it out stuff the right word, 436 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: But that's just one of many culprits. You know, they'll 437 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: say Massad did it, the Oka Royals did it. 438 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 3: And the Clinton body count thing. I mean, we did 439 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 3: an episode on that when we did you know, during 440 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 3: the election, we did Clinton conspiracies and Trump conspiracies, and 441 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 3: that stuff's pretty baseless. I mean, we couldn't find much 442 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 3: evidence to sink your teeth into that that actually took place, 443 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 3: that the Clinton's actually had people killed. 444 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 4: I agree, yes, there's no solid evidence. Obviously they wouldn't 445 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 4: be walking around if there was any solid evidence that 446 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 4: the Clintons had been murdering anyone together or separately. There 447 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 4: there are a lot of somewhat peculiar instances of people 448 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 4: either going missing or dyings, which is why some of 449 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 4: this continues to proliferate this idea. And we even have 450 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 4: Donald Trump tweeting about the Clinton body count in reference 451 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 4: to that's Jeffrey Epstein. 452 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: He also has another quote pertaining to Epstein from before 453 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: this went down, where he's essentially saying, yeah, Jeffrey is 454 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: a good friend of mine, and he likes them young 455 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: wink wink, nudge, nudge, And. 456 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 3: It's so crazy to me that Trump would perpetuate I 457 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 3: don't know, maybe it's like a smoke screen since he's 458 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 3: potentially implicated too, because both of them weren't you know, 459 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 3: were on the plane. But yeah, we retweeted this post 460 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 3: from this guy, Terrence K. Williams, who is confirmed on Twitter. 461 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 3: I think he's like kind of a conspiracy theorist type dude. 462 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 3: But it says died of suicide on twenty four to 463 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 3: seven suicide watch. Yeah, right, how does that happen? Hashtag 464 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 3: Jeffrey Epstein had information on Bill Clinton and now he's dead. 465 00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 3: I see hashtag Trump body count trending. But we know 466 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 3: who did this RT. If you're not surprised, I'm sorry, 467 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 3: say what you will about Trump. Again, we're trying to 468 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 3: get too political on the show. But what an irresponsible 469 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 3: thing to do. 470 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 4: Well, he's he's also connected to this story, right, Well, 471 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 4: how odd is. 472 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: That he did kick Epstein out of Maura Lago at 473 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: some point? 474 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 4: It's true? 475 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: Also, yeah, it's I think there's a very valid argument 476 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: to be made that maybe one should also be concerned 477 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: about the cost the possible co conspirators and their activities 478 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 1: or the victims. There are many of them. Oh yeah, 479 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: and it's it's strange because this is only the beginning. 480 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 1: There's also this idea that's not quite homicide, that Epstein 481 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: was allowed to take his own life, right, that someone 482 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: may maybe using attorney client privilege, someone got a message 483 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: to him and said something about his family, something like that, 484 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: and then the guards are paid to look away or 485 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: or you know, a break happens at a certain time 486 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: at the same time watches in. Yeah, the cellmates, the 487 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: cellmates skdaddled, and then you know, maybe just the implements 488 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: required or the time required just happens and he's expecting it. 489 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: But this is this is something I wanted to ask 490 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: you guys about. This is weird. If it is true 491 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: that instead of a hedge fund manager, this man was 492 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: essentially a concierge of child abuse and procuring children for 493 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 1: these older mental abuse. If that's true, would he not 494 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: have some sort of dead hand or kill switch system 495 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: that seems to be like the only insurance that would work. 496 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 3: This is the idea of some sort of dossier that 497 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 3: would be deployed to the authorities in the event of 498 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 3: his untimely death exactly. 499 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 4: I think we talked about this last time. He essentially 500 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 4: would have the most potent and perfect blackmail like ready 501 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 4: for all of these powerful people. 502 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 3: Because part of the reason that he was able to 503 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 3: wiggle out of, you know, the clutches of the law 504 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 3: in the first place, was because of like his brutally 505 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 3: aggressive legal team, you know, I mean, he did not 506 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 3: pull any punches. He was protecting himself to the hilt. 507 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 3: So yeah, it's a little odd that that, But who knows, 508 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 3: Maybe it has been deployed and we just haven't heard 509 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 3: about it yet. But I guess the point being what 510 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 3: you're saying, I think is that it wouldn't make sense 511 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 3: for them to bump him off if if he had 512 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 3: something like. 513 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 4: That, unless it was taken care of, unless they needed 514 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 4: the time between getting him getting arrested and the authorities 515 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 4: going through all this stuff, maybe they discovered what they 516 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 4: were looking for. 517 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: He also had lead time in almost every well in 518 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 1: several cases where his property was searched. Sure, that's why 519 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: Palm Beach they didn't find hard drives, they didn't find 520 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: you know, CDs with video footage. 521 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 3: Did they find? Though, Ben, they're a fan of this, 522 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 3: A fan of this, A fan. It's a very weird 523 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 3: flex The things they found. 524 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, okay. So in Palm Beach they found 525 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: all the wires in which one would you know which 526 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: that you'd use to hook up recording apparatus and video. 527 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: And then in Manhattan in a safe they found a 528 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: they found a fake passport. Now, passport fraud works differently. 529 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: Apparently if you are a millionaire or possibly a billionaire, 530 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: we would go to jail for that. 531 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 3: He was able to kind of explain it away though, 532 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 3: to the authorities. Right. 533 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: His lawyer argued that this passport came from a friend 534 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: due to concerns for Epstein's physical safety where he was 535 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: when he was traveling in places where there was, you know, 536 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: a lot of anti Semitism. So he had an Austrian passport, 537 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: his picture, a different name, and it listed his residency 538 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: as Saudi Arabia. We would be under the jail. He 539 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: also had he also had several thousand in cash, I 540 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: can't remember, forty grand or something like that. Yeah, and 541 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: then he's a kicker. He had a bag of forty 542 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: eight loose diamonds, loose diamonds, loose diamonds, which is conflict 543 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 1: territory currents. 544 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 3: Absolutely, And we also haven't talked about the drone footage 545 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 3: of his island. Yeah, private island in the Virgin Islands. Yeah, 546 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 3: because he's an island owning territory. He is at bond 547 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 3: villain level wealth. 548 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. And there's a temple on the island, or what 549 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: appears to be a temple. 550 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 3: Let's go ahead and call it a sex temple. 551 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, that's what it feels like. 552 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: It's very, very strange. That island is probably cleaned out, sanitized, 553 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: or under investigation by the authorities now, but I believe 554 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: that law enforcement. You can see on the drone footage 555 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:52,959 Speaker 1: they've started blacking out windows and stuff. 556 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:53,479 Speaker 2: Yeah. 557 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 3: I can't remember if we talked about this last time 558 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 3: or not, but I just find this fascinating and very strange. 559 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 3: On that island, there are photographs of an event. He 560 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 3: was a big fan of hanging out with scientists and physicists. 561 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 3: One of his closest aides referred to him as having 562 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 3: the mind of a physicist, and there was he would 563 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 3: do these scientific conferences on that very island where a 564 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 3: lot of this these alleged you know, abuses were said 565 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 3: to have taken place, and it included people like Stephen Hawking, 566 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 3: Nobel Laureates, you know, David Gross, Frank Vilcek, physicists Jim Peebles, 567 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 3: Alan Gooth, Kip Thorne, Lisa Randall. Again, he's obviously giving 568 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 3: money to their causes. It makes sense for them to schmooze. 569 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 3: This was before yeah, that the original allegations came out, 570 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 3: So not throwing any of them into the bus. But 571 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 3: one of these scientists who absolutely is standing accused of 572 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 3: having forced sex with an underage girl is MIT professor 573 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 3: Marvin Minsky, who is a close friend of Epstein and 574 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 3: it was a very important figure in the development of 575 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 3: artificial intelligence. 576 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: Right. Minsky died in twenty sixteen. He was known associate 577 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: of Epstein, and in that twenty sixteen deposition, which is 578 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,919 Speaker 1: where the recent unsealed documents come from, she names him 579 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: as one of the many prominent scientists with ties to him, 580 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 1: as she also names Dershowitz and Alan. Dershowitz has the strangest, 581 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: most bizarre sort of denials or justifications. He's saying things like, oh, yeah, 582 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: I got a massage, but don't worry, it was from 583 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: an old, unattractive person. You know what I mean, And 584 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: there were a lot of kids around, but nothing weird happened. 585 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: It's difficult to parse this, but just for a snapshot 586 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: of how much speculation is proliferating right now, do you 587 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: want to mention a third category of theory that I 588 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: ran into, which is that Jeffrey Epstein's somehow committed pseudo 589 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,839 Speaker 1: side the fancy word for faking one's own death and 590 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: escaped by a long shot. This is the least plausible idea, 591 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: but this is just the beginning. Will pause for a 592 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: word from our sponsor and then maybe dig into more 593 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 1: of the speculation, the footage, the groups involved, the timeline 594 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: of the death. We have returned. The reality of the 595 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: situation as it stands now means that we are not 596 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: working with all of the information and it will continue 597 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: to come out. But there are things that we have 598 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: to hit upon here. You know, one very creepy, disturbing 599 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:55,839 Speaker 1: quote was that acoustic quote from earlier that somebody belongs 600 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:56,919 Speaker 1: to intelligence. 601 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:58,800 Speaker 3: What does that even mean? What is that implying? 602 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: It's the implication that they are an asset or they 603 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 1: are contracting out. So so, for instance, like the in 604 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: the intelligence community for just making up an example, Let's 605 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:15,399 Speaker 1: say that you are you are trying to conduct an 606 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:21,280 Speaker 1: operation in a country where that's unfriendly to your intelligence agency, 607 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: and you need to have plausible deniability, So you're not 608 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: actually doing stuff. You know, you're not actually in the 609 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: streets launching a coup and overthrowing the government. However, you 610 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:35,479 Speaker 1: have some connections with a local student union and they 611 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: are protesting for democracy or better access to lithium or whatever, 612 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: and that's that's the kind of thing. So somebody can 613 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: work with an intelligence outfit and not themselves be a 614 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,439 Speaker 1: member of the FBI or the CIA or whatever. So 615 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: the implication there is that if we're going absolutely crazy, 616 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: there's no hard proof of this yet, the implication there 617 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: is that he was practicing honeypot techniques or honey traps 618 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 1: if you want to call him that. 619 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 3: Sort of like what the Steele dossier that Trump, that 620 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 3: you know, supposedly existed on Trump would have been in 621 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 3: terms of the Russian government setting honeypot traps for foreign 622 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 3: dignitaries and then using uh, you know, compromand on them 623 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 3: to blackmail them. 624 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, comprom at with a K, which is such a 625 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: crazy great word, but the. 626 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 4: It's so odd that it seems so easy to find 627 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 4: the weird inclinations of you know, powerful people. 628 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 1: And perhaps it's a measure of gradients, you know, I 629 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,439 Speaker 1: I if we're being dystopian, what do you think about 630 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 1: the possibility of this scenario. What if after a certain 631 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: amount of success, like real genuine merit, right, what if 632 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 1: you reach some social or financial threshold of influence and 633 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: power where to join the inner circle, you are required 634 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:05,240 Speaker 1: to do certain things right, like you are required perhaps 635 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 1: and this is very I have no proof of this. 636 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: I'm just asking this a thought experiment. Like let's say 637 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: you're you're up for partnership or you're going to join 638 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 1: this you know, international bank whatever, and they say, okay, 639 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: Well to get into the inner circle, something we all 640 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 1: have to do, you know what I mean? Like black mirror. 641 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 1: Example would be having sexual congress with an animal, right, 642 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 1: this is it something like this. 643 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 4: And it has to be filmed and people who are 644 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 4: in charge get to keep that just in case you 645 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 4: start doing something they don't like. 646 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: Right, and intelligence communities have done stuff like this before, 647 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: this extortion, this blackmail. It changes with the age, the 648 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: time and place, like in countries where homosexuality was outlawed 649 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 1: intelligence communities would collect that dirt on people and say, 650 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,439 Speaker 1: you know, vote this way or do this thing if 651 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: you don't want your secret revealed. The difference here being 652 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,879 Speaker 1: that homosexuality is very much not a crime, and it's 653 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: very much not a choice people make. It's who they are, 654 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 1: and they should have the right to live their lives. 655 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 1: And this one was using child abuse if that's the case. 656 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 1: If that's the case, then the argument becomes that Epstein 657 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: had a backer, a state actor of some sort or 658 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 1: a faction within a state actor that was enabling his 659 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,359 Speaker 1: access and reaping the rewards. But back to your question, Matt, 660 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:43,840 Speaker 1: the thing that really, the thing that really horrifies me 661 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:49,919 Speaker 1: is the idea that at some point the people who 662 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: were if this were some kind of intelligence operation, the 663 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 1: people who are doing this to children. Again, if it's 664 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 1: all true, they agreed to do it, you know what 665 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: I mean, they consented at least. I don't know what 666 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 1: brings a person to that point. 667 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. I mean, it's all conspiratorial. It 668 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 4: has a it feels, at least in my gut, like 669 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 4: there was something like this occurring. I cannot prove it 670 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:25,839 Speaker 4: that the United States or some intelligence group was using 671 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,720 Speaker 4: him directly to do this thing as a tool, as 672 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 4: like you were saying, Ben as somebody who can go 673 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 4: into a country, not as a state actor, not as 674 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,799 Speaker 4: an official agent or something like that, but has the 675 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 4: wealth and influence to make things happen. And he also 676 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 4: has this ability to get you what you want for 677 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 4: your messed up fantasies, and you will use that against 678 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:50,760 Speaker 4: you simultaneously. 679 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 3: Absolutely, and speaking of getting you what you want, this 680 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 3: is really interesting. We talked about some co conspirators and 681 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 3: you know, the question is like, what's next. Okay, so 682 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,799 Speaker 3: we've got is clearly out of the picture. Any prosecution 683 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 3: against him is kind of moot, but it's certainly not 684 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 3: moot as far as the victims are concerned and as 685 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,319 Speaker 3: far as the fallout for some of these co conspirators, 686 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 3: one of whom is a British socialite and longtime pal 687 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 3: of Epstein's by the name of Gieslon Maxwell, who's fifty 688 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 3: seven years old, and ever since the kind of renewed 689 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 3: interest in this case, has apparently been hiding out in 690 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:32,279 Speaker 3: a mansion in Manchester by the Sea, Massachusetts, an oceanfront 691 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 3: property owned by her CEO Tech CEO boyfriend Scott Borgerson, 692 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 3: who kind of does all the running around and walking 693 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 3: over dog and getting groceries, and she very rarely leaves 694 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 3: the property. She was named in that very same deposition 695 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,800 Speaker 3: that we've been quoting from, and fought tooth and nail 696 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 3: to keep those pages, those two thousand pages from that 697 00:41:56,080 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 3: defamation lawsuit against her by Virginia Goofrey, who you know, 698 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 3: the one who was deposed and gave all this information 699 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,919 Speaker 3: with these new individuals that were connected, did not want 700 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:10,800 Speaker 3: that unsealed, and is very clearly someone that had something 701 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 3: to do with this very very real crime. I think 702 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 3: no one's questioning that this happened, that this man was 703 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 3: responsible for these crimes. I know he wasn't tried, but 704 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 3: I just don't I feel like he's being referred to 705 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 3: as a pedophile, I mean unequivocally. Maybe that's not fair. 706 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 3: Maybe that's trying him in the court of public opinion, 707 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 3: because he definitely. 708 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 4: But he already got tried in the courts, and they 709 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 4: just kind of push it away. 710 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 3: But that's so confusing to me, Like there wasn't even 711 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 3: a verdict rendered. 712 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 1: Right in the original one. Yeah, he was found guilty 713 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: on that one count, which one on the account of 714 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 1: soliciting a minor for prostitution. Because, like we said earlier, though, 715 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 1: even the way that is framed really really is incredibly 716 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: disrespectful to the victims. Absolutely, it's not like they consented 717 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: at all, you know. So it also goes you know, Dershowitz. 718 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 1: Alan Dershowitz was scheduled to do a mock trial in 719 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: which he would defend Biblical child traffickers. This is true. 720 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 1: What yeah, at a place called Temple Emmanuel Striker Center 721 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 1: in New York. It was originally going to happen in November, 722 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 1: it got canceled because of this sort of stuff. He 723 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:28,760 Speaker 1: would be acting as defense in the People versus Joseph's brothers. 724 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 1: This is an annual mock trial hosted by the Center 725 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: based on stories from the Torah and The idea here 726 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,959 Speaker 1: was that they would argue in front of a US 727 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 1: District court judge a person named Ronnie Abrams, and Abrams 728 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 1: would decide whether the brothers of Joseph, who appear in 729 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 1: Genesis in the Torah and Bible, should be held guilty 730 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 1: for selling young Joseph as a slave some. 731 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 3: Kind of sick like legal thought experiment. So strange. Well, 732 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 3: there is some good news ish, I guess. Senator Ben Sass, 733 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 3: a Republican from Nebraska, just this week urged William Barr, 734 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 3: the Attorney General, who himself was dubious of the apparent suicide, 735 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 3: said that we need to launch an investigation. Whether or 736 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 3: not that's just optics, it's hard to say, you know, 737 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:24,399 Speaker 3: but Sas is calling to quote unquote rip up that 738 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:28,240 Speaker 3: non prosecution deal from two thousand and eight and hold 739 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 3: his co conspirators accountable. 740 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:33,280 Speaker 2: Wow, that's real. 741 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,919 Speaker 3: They were just given the pass right like they weren't. 742 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 3: Even there's no black mark on their record as far 743 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:39,800 Speaker 3: as the law. 744 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 1: Is concerned, you know, no legal ramification. 745 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 3: Right, and they're alive and well, living in million dollar 746 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 3: palatial estates, you know, by the sea exactly. 747 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 1: And we have to wonder, Look, what do you think 748 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: you're the most skeptical person has ever set foot upon 749 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 1: this crazy experien of ours called Earth, or whether you 750 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 1: think the things that the mainstream considers the most out 751 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 1: there are the most true. The fact remains, something very 752 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:19,319 Speaker 1: very rotten is present. Something happened and is happening, right, 753 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 1: And we felt obligated to make this update, you know, 754 00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: but we will probably have to keep looking into this 755 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 1: because stories like this, as strange as it sounds, they 756 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: can disappear well. 757 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 3: And at the very least, this very strange handling of 758 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 3: a very serious crime in the original case is kind 759 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 3: of being treated like not that big a deal, you 760 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 3: know what I mean? 761 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I know exactly what I mean. Well, it 762 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 4: makes me want to go back to that New York 763 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 4: Times article for just one more minute, you guys. To 764 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 4: the end. I'm going to read a quote from this 765 00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 4: article again. This makes so much much sense to me. Okay, 766 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:05,719 Speaker 4: So imagine right now, if we didn't know anything about 767 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,240 Speaker 4: Jeffrey Epstein. We just knew what was on the surface 768 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 4: about him. He's some billionaire hedge fund manager guy that 769 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 4: manages a bunch of rich people's money. That's all we 770 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 4: know about him. Right then imagine that Let's say we're 771 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 4: sitting in a hotel bar or something. Somebody walks up 772 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 4: to us and here's here's the quote. Imagine being told 773 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 4: all we know about him that he wasn't just a billionaire, 774 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 4: but a man mysteriously made and mysteriously protected who ran 775 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,839 Speaker 4: a pedophile island with a temple to an unknown god 776 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 4: and plotted his own boys from Brazil endgame in playing 777 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:45,480 Speaker 4: sight of his Harvard DC House of windsor Pals. It's 778 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:48,400 Speaker 4: it would be insane, you would not believe that for 779 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,840 Speaker 4: a second, that idea of a conspiracy theory feeling so 780 00:46:54,040 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 4: out there, it's perfectly represented there. But it's but it true. 781 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 3: Oh no. But we've talked on the show multiple times 782 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 3: about how the term conspiracy theory itself is so reductive 783 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 3: and it's it's literally, there's a word for it, ben 784 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 3: you might you might remember just of like when you're 785 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 3: trying it's that cognitive dissonance maybe, or like when thought 786 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,279 Speaker 3: terminating cliche exactly, thank you. Yeah, for sure. This is 787 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,439 Speaker 3: this idea that by calling something that you're dismissing its 788 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 3: veracity on all levels, and you're you're like basically belittling 789 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 3: the person that's trying to discuss this with you to 790 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 3: crackpot territory. And that's a really important part to us 791 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 3: about this show, is that we do try to look 792 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 3: at all sides and we talk about these things for 793 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 3: a reason because even if you know things are largely false, 794 00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,960 Speaker 3: it's an interesting part of the human condition to like 795 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:48,360 Speaker 3: look for answers and try to, even if it's in 796 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 3: kind of a weird, reverse engineered way. But this is 797 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 3: a perfect example of a thing that is absolutely provable 798 00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 3: on so many levels and absolutely represents things that are 799 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 3: happening in the shadow all the time. 800 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,920 Speaker 1: I would say, I suggest that we since we can't 801 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 1: answer all the questions yet and maybe hopefully we'll be 802 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:11,359 Speaker 1: able to one day, I suggest we end on one 803 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 1: last question. If there was compromat, if there was video 804 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 1: or photographic footage or evidence of these crimes occurring, like physically, 805 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: we could see, you know, these named co conspirators and 806 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 1: others engaging in these crimes. Who has the footage? That 807 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 1: would be one of the most explosive and powerful things 808 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 1: to possess. We know that somehow Epstein got hipped to 809 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: a search in advance at least once. So where did 810 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,839 Speaker 1: it go? Did you destroy it? Is it somewhere else? 811 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 4: I bet it's backed up in multiple countries, in multiple banks. 812 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:58,240 Speaker 4: I bet you that's where it is. That's just complete speculation, maybe, 813 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 4: but I can imagine him traveling around and put it 814 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,280 Speaker 4: in like a deposit. 815 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:17,359 Speaker 1: Box, building redundancy. Yeah, let's call this breaking news. So 816 00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:22,720 Speaker 1: we recorded the episode on Epstein yesterday, which you just heard, 817 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 1: and then it stayed with us because we said it 818 00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:31,160 Speaker 1: would be an imperfect update. And I owe Matt and 819 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 1: Noel an apology because I started texting guys like for 820 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: something in the morning as more news broke. And so 821 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:44,280 Speaker 1: now we've gotten together, I think we've all had about 822 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 1: a collective hour four hours of sleep. 823 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Ben is not joking. It really was four 824 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 4: in the morning, and the stuff that he was sending 825 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 4: us was so explosive we realized we absolutely had to 826 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:57,840 Speaker 4: add it to this episode. 827 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:02,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, the three of us as soon as we woke 828 00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: up would have probably received tons of notifications about this stuff, 829 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 1: and we didn't want this episode to come out without it. 830 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:16,400 Speaker 1: Because you see Jeffrey Epstein's bodyguard in Palm Springs. A 831 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 1: guy named Igor Zenowev. 832 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,759 Speaker 4: A former UFC fighter, former. 833 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:27,719 Speaker 1: UFC fighter, mysterious Russian MMA fighter, just became the subject 834 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:32,280 Speaker 1: of a huge amount of scrutiny because there is a 835 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:37,360 Speaker 1: text interview with him that was released and is frankly 836 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 1: chilling and damning. And Matt, you went through and found 837 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 1: excerpts of this thing. 838 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:44,759 Speaker 4: I did just for a little more context. It's a 839 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 4: phone call that happened between this journalist and Igor, and 840 00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 4: it's in reference to or an update to a previous 841 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:56,840 Speaker 4: phone call that they had in twenty fifteen, and Igor like, 842 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,359 Speaker 4: apparently it took forever to try and track him down. 843 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,200 Speaker 4: Nobody's been able to get a hold of this guy. 844 00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 4: But because this journalist had an inn already through speaking 845 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 4: to him in twenty fifteen, I guess Igor picked up 846 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 4: the phone call. 847 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:13,799 Speaker 1: And that journalist is M. L. Nostelle. Who you know, 848 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:16,839 Speaker 1: if that name pops up as a suicide, I would 849 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 1: also not believe it. 850 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 4: Well, here's why. Let's get into some of the quotations here. So, 851 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 4: as we said, this is in reference to a previous conversation. 852 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 4: Now in this version, the twenty nineteen conversation, the journalist 853 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,520 Speaker 4: one more time was the name that is M. L. 854 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 1: Nestelle in eest El. 855 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:41,360 Speaker 4: Okay, So Nostelle is noticing that Egor is being extremely 856 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 4: evasive in the previous things that he had stated in 857 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 4: twenty fifteen. So I'm gonna let's read a couple of 858 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 4: things here. So this is Nostelle, the journalist in our 859 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 4: conversation in twenty fifteen, you described his relationship with teenage girlfriends, quote. 860 00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 4: So many times I tried to stop him. I tried 861 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,560 Speaker 4: to tell him my opinion about that. He don't listen 862 00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 4: to me. That's the reason why I'm not working for 863 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:07,319 Speaker 4: him no more. I make him do that to let 864 00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:09,239 Speaker 4: me go. Do you remember saying that? 865 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 1: And so before we get to his response, we want 866 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:14,799 Speaker 1: to be clear that because this is a phone call, 867 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 1: the journalists made the decision not to try to correct 868 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:19,960 Speaker 1: any grammar. 869 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 4: No paraphrasing, no paraphrasing. 870 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 1: This is exactly the physical record of what Igor said. 871 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:28,840 Speaker 1: So his response in the second interview is, it's not 872 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:32,080 Speaker 1: the teenage girls. I never see the teenage girls. I 873 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:35,760 Speaker 1: tell you I never see teenage girls plenty of times 874 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:38,360 Speaker 1: when I work for him, I never see anything on 875 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 1: proper or teenage girls around him. That's what I say. 876 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,839 Speaker 4: And again that quote from earlier from the journalist is 877 00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 4: exactly what was stated the last time they spoke, and 878 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:49,400 Speaker 4: he's now denying it. 879 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 1: Why don't we go on just a little bit, Okay, 880 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:52,319 Speaker 1: don't feel the tension here. 881 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 4: So the journalist says, so, now you say you only 882 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:59,240 Speaker 4: saw him with women older than eighteen twenty all. 883 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,759 Speaker 1: What I say, he has always been with girlfriends and 884 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:04,720 Speaker 1: there was a couple girls. I don't remember their names. 885 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 1: She was twenty five and worked for him as assistant, 886 00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 1: maybe twenty five or twenty three whatever. I don't know 887 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 1: the age. 888 00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 4: Okay, but you definitely told me that last time we talked. 889 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:19,480 Speaker 1: No, no, it's not that he's working like work release 890 00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:21,920 Speaker 1: on other stuff. And I just tell him, you know, 891 00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 1: he would order his girlfriends around, and I told him, 892 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:28,359 Speaker 1: calm down, it's not just teenage girls. I never see 893 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 1: teenage girls in my life at his house. That's what 894 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 1: it is. That's a misunderstanding completely. And then he goes 895 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:40,240 Speaker 1: on and it's true. I think this is really important. 896 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:40,760 Speaker 3: It's true. 897 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:45,440 Speaker 1: Without hearing the intonation of the conversation, we can maybe 898 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 1: find ourselves reading some tea leaves. 899 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:52,400 Speaker 3: So basically, he's backpedaling on the age, like he unequivocally 900 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 3: in the first comment said I tried to stop him 901 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 3: with the teenage girls. It was weird. And then god, 902 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 3: the amount of times he says tea age girls in 903 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 3: the second one, the rebuttal or, I guess that's where 904 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 3: he kind of pulls back. It sounds so much like 905 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 3: he's got something to hide or as a talking point. 906 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, yea so we have to remember he was functioning 907 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:17,680 Speaker 4: as bodyguard and drivers sometimes and combat trainer in combat 908 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,720 Speaker 4: trainer in light combat at least according at least according 909 00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 4: to Egor. But he lived on in a guesthouse on 910 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:27,439 Speaker 4: a property of Epstein for a long time. He would 911 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:30,359 Speaker 4: drive Epstein to locations where he would stay in the car. 912 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,399 Speaker 4: Epstein would leave for a couple hours and come back. 913 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,280 Speaker 4: Now most of this is during the time that Epstein 914 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:38,359 Speaker 4: was in jail, but he was getting those twelve hour 915 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 4: releases where he would go and have these meetings and 916 00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:43,920 Speaker 4: Igor would just shuttle him around. 917 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 1: So I want to go to a different part of 918 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:52,799 Speaker 1: this too. So several times in this interview the journalist 919 00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:59,319 Speaker 1: is literally quoting verbatim back to Igor. And there's this 920 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 1: one part that really stands out, and it's an old 921 00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 1: quote that he says, all right, the journalist is saying, 922 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:09,000 Speaker 1: I understand this is sensitive. Igoor saying it's not sensitive, 923 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 1: it's just kind of a little uncorrect. And then the 924 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,320 Speaker 1: journalist goes in hard and says, it's exactly what you said. 925 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 1: I can send it to you. Here's something else. Who 926 00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:22,200 Speaker 1: said it could be tricky, you know, normally he meaning Epstein, 927 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:25,640 Speaker 1: always checks his newspapers. Nothing about me, I say, no, 928 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 1: they forget about me. And what I mentioned Epstein was 929 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 1: being exposed for messing with teenage girls. You said, I'm 930 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 1: not surprised at all. I'm just surprised how low he 931 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: can be outside the real world. Someday is going to 932 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,719 Speaker 1: call him and it will be real jail. He has 933 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 1: so much money he can pay it off me personally. 934 00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,239 Speaker 1: If I caught him with my daughter or something like that, 935 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 1: I'm not going to go to police. I do something 936 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 1: else much worse. That guy could try to assume me 937 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,760 Speaker 1: and manipulate the situation with his money. That's the American way. 938 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,240 Speaker 1: I know. He screwed up a lot of fashion girls. Also, 939 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:00,800 Speaker 1: that's a different story. 940 00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:05,320 Speaker 3: Why would he be so candid like that with a reporter. 941 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:07,920 Speaker 1: I guess he thought it was untouchable, you know, yea, 942 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 1: like nothing would come of it because nothing had. 943 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 2: But that changed. 944 00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 3: No, I mean, would I would think he would consider, 945 00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 3: you know, especially what he's saying about how powerful and 946 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:20,600 Speaker 3: rich Epstein is, how he's untouchable. Why would he go 947 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,799 Speaker 3: out on a limb like that about his employer and 948 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 3: put himself in the line of fire. 949 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,520 Speaker 4: Like well, he was he was an employee, right, you 950 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,880 Speaker 4: can only speculate what Epstein might have on him or 951 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,239 Speaker 4: something like that, But who knows that kind of thing. 952 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:37,680 Speaker 4: In this case, it's just a guy talking about his 953 00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 4: employer who was in a lot of legal trouble. That's 954 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:41,720 Speaker 4: what I'm imagining in twenty fifteen. 955 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 1: But I see the motivation too, Like it doesn't sound 956 00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:49,880 Speaker 1: like good housekeeping or good employee employer hygiene. But we 957 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:54,399 Speaker 1: have to remember, legally speaking, we don't. This guy doesn't 958 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:58,040 Speaker 1: have attorney client privilege or anything. I'm sure there might 959 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 1: be some sort of NDA, you know, or some equivalent. 960 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,680 Speaker 1: But it gets really it gets really spooky. And you 961 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,600 Speaker 1: can read the entirety of the phone call, at least 962 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:11,800 Speaker 1: for now, in the transcript form on ny mag dot com. 963 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 1: But let's look at another segment of this, because this 964 00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 1: does escalate. Right now, we just have a guy who 965 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 1: sounds like he's trying to walk back some smack he 966 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 1: was talking in twenty fifteen. Yeah, but this next part 967 00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 1: is very different. 968 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:27,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just before we get it's really odd to 969 00:57:27,120 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 3: me that he would walk it back after he's dead, 970 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,040 Speaker 3: Like it seems like he would have less to lose 971 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 3: letting his original statements ride. 972 00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:38,840 Speaker 4: And then I mean, Epstein wasn't the dangerous one exactly. 973 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,360 Speaker 3: There's something else going on here, So he goes, I'm 974 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 3: not afraid beyond that. Just he is dead. I don't 975 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:47,320 Speaker 3: want anything to be uncorrect. There's too much in here. 976 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 3: You know already he's dead, and just like freaking people, 977 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:53,880 Speaker 3: just leave him alone. Then the journalist asks, hold on, 978 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 3: when did you find out he. 979 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 1: Died Saturday or Sunday or whenever? 980 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 3: What did you think when you found that out? 981 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:02,360 Speaker 1: What did I think? 982 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 2: Yeah? 983 00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:04,919 Speaker 1: Are you sure you want to hear what I'm going 984 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,160 Speaker 1: to think? Yes, somebody helped him to do that. 985 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:12,200 Speaker 3: You think somebody helped him kill himself? Yeah? 986 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:16,520 Speaker 1: Okay, why listen? You know that's going a little too deep. 987 00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,320 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just trying to understand that maybe you'd 988 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:21,960 Speaker 3: be happy he was dead, or you would be upset. 989 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 3: I don't know, are you even feeling anything. 990 00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:26,760 Speaker 1: I'm not sad. I mean, I didn't have anything against him, 991 00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:29,160 Speaker 1: like a bad thing. You know, I don't care about 992 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:32,960 Speaker 1: his life completely. I don't give let's say, like crap 993 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:37,280 Speaker 1: about how he died, how he live, or how he's managed, how. 994 00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 2: He's managed jeez. 995 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 3: How many years did you live in his house? 996 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 1: Five or six years in Palm Beach. 997 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:45,760 Speaker 3: That's a long time. Yeah, you don't have any emotion 998 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:49,000 Speaker 3: after learning he died.

I mean it sounds like 1022 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 4: he's a little scared. 1023 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:48,120 Speaker 1: More of a warning. Yeah, it goes on because the journalist, 1024 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 1: this journalist is top nuts. 1025 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,120 Speaker 3: Yeah. Here he is reading the quote you said he 1026 00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:55,920 Speaker 3: always do something wrong. There was some nights in question. 1027 00:59:56,640 --> 01:00:00,200 Speaker 3: There was at home arrest and police before they come 1028 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:02,600 Speaker 3: to the house, they call him and tell him they 1029 01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:06,000 Speaker 3: coming in at eight o'clock in the morning. It's all corruption, 1030 01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:07,440 Speaker 3: you know, it's all. 1031 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:11,200 Speaker 1: Both listen, don't put yourself in trouble seriously. 1032 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 2: Okay. Pause. 1033 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:16,000 Speaker 4: So that is a huge implication there, or a huge accusation, 1034 01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 4: is a huge statement saying that the local police. We 1035 01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:22,400 Speaker 4: talked about this in the episode, how he would get 1036 01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:24,680 Speaker 4: a heads up and know, like to clean things out 1037 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 4: of the house if they were if the authorities were 1038 01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:29,720 Speaker 4: coming over in the morning. This is what the bodyguard 1039 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:31,920 Speaker 4: who lived with him is saying is happening. 1040 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:36,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, which is not you know, not smoking gunproof, but 1041 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 1: is very chilling, circumstantial proof. And then from here on, 1042 01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:47,720 Speaker 1: Igor attempts to persuade this journalist to drop it, to 1043 01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:51,280 Speaker 1: let this stuff go. And we left off where he says, 1044 01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:55,960 Speaker 1: don't put yourself in trouble seriously.

And the Post says, quote, such 1135 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:09,120 Speaker 1: breaks can occur in those who hang themselves, particularly if 1136 01:05:09,160 --> 01:05:12,280 Speaker 1: they are older, according to forensic experts and studies on 1137 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,720 Speaker 1: the subject, but they are more common in victims of 1138 01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:17,160 Speaker 1: homicide by strangulation. 1139 01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 3: WHOA yeah, And let's not forget that other attempt where 1140 01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:25,480 Speaker 3: he had bruising around his neck. And I don't know 1141 01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:27,160 Speaker 3: that we mentioned this in the in the main part 1142 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:30,080 Speaker 3: of the episode, but there were shrieks heard coming from 1143 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:31,680 Speaker 3: his cell. You know, you don't. 1144 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:32,919 Speaker 2: I don't even know that. You don't. 1145 01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:36,640 Speaker 3: You don't shriek when you're hanging yourself, that when you're 1146 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 3: being strangled or when you're being attacked. And I had 1147 01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 3: a really great conversation with Jack O'Brien. We're actually just FYI, 1148 01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 3: but people behind the we're in Orlando for this podcast. 1149 01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:48,840 Speaker 3: Convention podcast movement, and I have been lucky enough to 1150 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:50,280 Speaker 3: get to hang with some of the West Coast folks 1151 01:05:50,360 --> 01:05:52,840 Speaker 3: from from our network, and Jack, who does the Daily 1152 01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:55,800 Speaker 3: Zeit guys, It's a fantastic show, was really interested in this, 1153 01:05:55,840 --> 01:05:57,320 Speaker 3: and we all spoke to him about it briefly, but 1154 01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:02,160 Speaker 3: he made the point of this is a guy who 1155 01:06:02,160 --> 01:06:05,720 Speaker 3: has demonstrated zero remorse, who has been able to wiggle 1156 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,200 Speaker 3: his way out of every situation that he's been in 1157 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:13,160 Speaker 3: because of his sheer wealth and opulence and connections. 1158 01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:16,080 Speaker 1: Right, I would say even more so the connections. 1159 01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 3: Absolutely all of that combined. This is not a man 1160 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:22,280 Speaker 3: who kills himself out of shame. This is a man 1161 01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:24,840 Speaker 3: who waits it out and sees what's gonna happen and 1162 01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:26,880 Speaker 3: sees what kind of out he can get. You know, 1163 01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:30,360 Speaker 3: it doesn't make any sense. Yeah, he was already shamed. 1164 01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:33,080 Speaker 3: If the shame was gonna do it for him, why 1165 01:06:33,080 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 3: didn't he do it? Why didn't he kill himself before? 1166 01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:35,520 Speaker 2: Well? 1167 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:40,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, he also doesn't have a big family that we 1168 01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:43,560 Speaker 1: know of, right, and children that we know of, because 1169 01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:46,920 Speaker 1: the typical mob or criminal tactic would be too coerced 1170 01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:52,080 Speaker 1: suicide by threatening ones loved ones right, but that leverage 1171 01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 1: doesn't seem to exist. I was on the Daily Zeite 1172 01:06:56,320 --> 01:07:00,840 Speaker 1: Guys Jack and Miles podcast talking about Epstein a little 1173 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:03,960 Speaker 1: bit more, and they made the same point again, but 1174 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:07,560 Speaker 1: before this information came out. You know, in this show, 1175 01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:11,600 Speaker 1: we're very careful to be very clear with all of 1176 01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:15,479 Speaker 1: our fellow listeners if we're giving out our opinion rather 1177 01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:19,080 Speaker 1: than facts, and you know, I have to be honest. 1178 01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:22,360 Speaker 1: This is just my opinion, and I definitely don't speak 1179 01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:27,080 Speaker 1: for everybody, but this is rotten. Something is not right. 1180 01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:31,960 Speaker 1: This guy did for one or two of these circumstances 1181 01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:36,680 Speaker 1: to happen. Sure, okay, right, overworked prison guards are not 1182 01:07:36,880 --> 01:07:40,600 Speaker 1: at their job one hundred percent, right, Or maybe someone 1183 01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:45,400 Speaker 1: with suicidal ideation is misdiagnosed by an overworked psychologist, right 1184 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,920 Speaker 1: or psychiatrist. But for all these different things that happen 1185 01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 1: at once at the same time, it's it can't be 1186 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:57,120 Speaker 1: a coincidence. I feel like I'm Charlie Day and always 1187 01:07:57,120 --> 01:08:00,480 Speaker 1: sunny in Philadelphia in the mail room, pointing it stuff 1188 01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:03,200 Speaker 1: with a bunch of red string here. But I don't 1189 01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:04,040 Speaker 1: think it's off base. 1190 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:08,000 Speaker 2: Who is it doesn't even exist? 1191 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:13,880 Speaker 4: There is no Pepe how many times I know, I 1192 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:14,480 Speaker 4: don't know, I don't. 1193 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:15,560 Speaker 3: Think, I don't remember this. See I don't know who 1194 01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:18,240 Speaker 3: Pepen is either. No, that's the thing, and that's why 1195 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:20,720 Speaker 3: that that op ed that we led the show with, 1196 01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:23,479 Speaker 3: I think is so interesting because this idea of a 1197 01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:26,439 Speaker 3: conspiracy theory or a conspiracy theorist is like a thought 1198 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:31,240 Speaker 3: terminating cliche. This is this. These are two very real things. 1199 01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:35,080 Speaker 3: Conspiracies where people collude together, you know, for an end, 1200 01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:38,400 Speaker 3: a common end, and theory is a way of discussing 1201 01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 3: open mindedly, hopefully in our case, those potential collusions. And 1202 01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:45,679 Speaker 3: this is just a clear cut case where these theories 1203 01:08:45,680 --> 01:08:48,320 Speaker 3: that we're putting out there are absolutely plausible. 1204 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:48,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1205 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:51,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't even call this conspiracy theorized. And at this 1206 01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 1: point it's much more like investigative true crime. 1207 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, following the breadcrumbs and putting together in the puzzle. 1208 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:05,559 Speaker 1: And that's our classic episode for this evening. We can't 1209 01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:06,400 Speaker 1: wait to hear your thoughts. 1210 01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 3: It's right, let us know what you think.
