Sam McAlister Talks  About The Infamous Prince Andrew BBC Interview

Sam McAlister Talks About The Infamous Prince Andrew BBC Interview

Sam McAlister, the BBC producer who secured the 2019 Newsnight interview with Prince Andrew, described the experience as profoundly surreal and devastating for him. Despite the careful, months-long negotiations she orchestrated to obtain the sit-down—framing it as a "circumspect moment" where Andrew could express regret without admitting guilt—his actual on-air responses were catastrophically tone-deaf. McAlister witnessed first-hand as Andrew delivered a series of bizarre alibis—like asserting he couldn't have had sex with Virginia Giuffre because he couldn’t sweat or claiming he was at a kids' party at Pizza Express in Woking. Reflecting afterward, she famously called his performance “a masterclass in how to destroy your life,” noting the mismatch between his perception of success and the interview’s disastrous fallout.


From her vantage point about 15 feet behind Andrew during the interview, McAlister maintained a poker-face to conceal her shock, struggling internally with the sheer absurdity of his responses. She recognized that while Andrew thought the interview had gone well—reportedly even giving the BBC team a tour of Buckingham Palace afterward—it was already derailing catastrophically. In a moment of tension, McAlister admitted she had a fleeting thought to halt the interview entirely—joking that she might have feigned a fainting fit or created another excuse to stop it if he had been her client. Her memoir Scoops and the Netflix film Scoop dramatize how her persistence and candor set up one of the biggest journalistic operations of the decade, even as the fallout effectively ended Andrew’s royal public life.

Morning Update: JD Vance Attempts To Shift The Epstein Narrative And Prince Andrew's Woes Grow (8/11/25)

In a Fox News appearance, Vice President J.D. Vance sought to shift focus away from the Trump administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case by accusing Democrats of inaction. He claimed that President Biden “did absolutely nothing” while in office and suggested Epstein had strong connections with left-wing political and financial figures—asserting that "Democrat billionaires and Democrat political leaders went to Epstein island all the time" and hinting at potential involvement by Bill and Hillary Clinton. His remarks swiftly sparked social media outrage and renewed demands to “release the files,” with critics pointing out that President Trump himself had past ties to Epstein.Also...Prince Andrew is reportedly “too terrified” to set foot in the U.S. again due to fears of arrest, civil lawsuits, or being subpoenaed in connection with his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. According to recent reports, the Duke of York hasn’t traveled to North America in nearly a decade and is said to believe that if he returns, he could face intense political, legal, and media scrutiny—prompting him to remain in Britain as the safest option.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Vance calls out Democrats over Epstein, reignites push for transparency | CNN PoliticsPrince Andrew 'too terrified' to set foot back in America amid Epstein investigation, source claims - The Mirror USBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The DOJ Asks The  Court To Unseal Epstein/Maxwell Grand Jury Exhibits As Well As Testimony (8/11/25)

The DOJ Asks The Court To Unseal Epstein/Maxwell Grand Jury Exhibits As Well As Testimony (8/11/25)

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has formally asked federal judges to unseal the grand jury exhibits—not just the testimony transcripts—from the investigations into Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. The request, filed on August 8, 2025, specifies that any released materials should redact victim identities and sensitive personal information, while notifying individuals named in exhibits not previously admitted during Maxwell’s trial.   The DOJ has also requested that these materials remain sealed until after August 14 to allow time for notifications to relevant third parties.The move follows mounting pressure from the public, victims, and lawmakers for greater transparency in the Epstein‑Maxwell cases. Victims and their attorneys remain divided: some support unsealing for accountability, while others worry about their safety, privacy, and potential political motivations behind the DOJ’s timing.   Maxwell’s legal team strongly opposes the unsealing, arguing that, unlike Epstein (who is deceased), Maxwell is alive and actively litigating her case. They warn that unsealing grand jury materials could intrude on her due process rights and jeopardize her ongoing appeals and any future retrial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:DOJ seeks to unseal Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell grand jury recordsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Leon Black And the Motion To Hit Wigdor/Jeanne Christensen With Sanctions (Part 3-4) (8/11/25)

In Case No. 1:23-cv-06418, defendant Leon Black filed a memorandum supporting his motion for sanctions against Wigdor LLP and attorney Jeanne Christensen. Black contends that the plaintiff's legal team pursued baseless claims, lacking factual and legal merit, with the intent to damage his reputation and coerce a settlement. He argues that their actions constitute an abuse of the judicial process, warranting sanctions to deter such conduct and uphold the integrity of the court.Black's memorandum details instances where he believes Wigdor LLP and Christensen failed to conduct adequate investigations before filing the lawsuit, resulting in frivolous and defamatory allegations. He asserts that their behavior violates professional conduct standards and has caused him significant harm. Consequently, Black requests that the court impose appropriate sanctions, including financial penalties and disciplinary measures, to prevent similar misconduct in the future.(commercial at 7:46)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.602764.54.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Mega Edition: Jane Doe And Her Request To Deny Leon Blacks Attempt To ID Her (8/10/25)

In the case of Jane Doe v. Leon Black (Civil Action No.: 1:23-cv-06418-JGLC), Plaintiff Jane Doe has filed a memorandum opposing Defendant Leon Black's motion to compel her to publicly disclose her full name. Doe argues that revealing her identity would subject her to undue harassment and invasion of privacy, especially given the sensitive nature of the allegations, which include sexual assault. She emphasizes that proceeding under a pseudonym is essential to protect her from potential retaliation and to preserve her privacy.Doe further contends that maintaining her anonymity does not prejudice the defendant, as Black is already aware of her true identity and can adequately prepare his defense. She asserts that courts often permit plaintiffs to proceed pseudonymously in cases involving sexual assault to encourage victims to come forward without fear of public exposure. Therefore, Doe requests that the court deny Black's motion and allow her to continue using a pseudonym throughout the proceedings.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.602764.127.0.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

RFK And His Reported Trips On Jeffrey Epstein's Plane

RFK And His Reported Trips On Jeffrey Epstein's Plane

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has acknowledged that he flew on Jeffrey Epstein’s private jet on two occasions during the 1990s. One flight was a family trip to visit his mother in Palm Beach, and the other was to South Dakota for a fossil-hunting excursion with his wife and children. Kennedy has stated that these trips took place before Epstein’s crimes were publicly known and emphasized that he was never alone with Epstein. He characterized the flights as benign and unrelated to the network of abuse and trafficking that would later be exposed.Despite his explanation, the revelation has drawn public scrutiny, especially given the broader pattern of influential figures maintaining social ties with Epstein. Kennedy’s presence on Epstein’s plane, even in the early years, adds to the perception of how deeply embedded Epstein became in political, financial, and social circles. While Kennedy insists he had no knowledge of Epstein’s criminal behavior, his name now appears among a long list of prominent individuals linked to Epstein’s travel and hospitality—connections that continue to raise questions about proximity, privilege, and selective awareness.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:RFK Jr. admits he flew on Jeffrey Epstein's jet twice (nypost.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Why Was Les Wexner Ducking And Dodging The Subpoena In The USVI?

Why Was Les Wexner Ducking And Dodging The Subpoena In The USVI?

In its lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase alleging the bank facilitated Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation, the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI) sought to subpoena billionaire Les Wexner—Epstein’s longtime client and former financier. Prosecutors tried at least seven times to serve Wexner in person at both his home and office, but each attempt was thwarted by his security detail and staff. Because personal service repeatedly failed, the USVI asked a Manhattan federal judge for permission to serve the subpoena via certified mail insteadIn February 2023, U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff ruled that Wexner could indeed be served by certified mail, legally clearing the path for the USVI to pursue his testimony about his relationship with Epstein and payments made through entities tied to Epstein, such as “Enhanced Education,” which transferred around $124,232 to Wexner via JPMorganto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Legal filing describes Wexner effort to avoid subpoena in Epstein case (dispatch.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
