Mega Edition: Prince Andrew And His Titanic Of A Disaster Interview With BBC (8/12/25)
The Prince Andrew interview on BBC Newsnight came about after Buckingham Palace sought to clear his name amid growing scrutiny over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. The idea was first pitched when Prince Andrew’s then-private secretary, Amanda Thirsk, was in discussions with BBC journalist Emily Maitlis and Newsnight editor Esme Wren about a possible interview. Initially, the palace wanted to use the interview to refute allegations that Prince Andrew had sexually abused Virginia Giuffre, who alleged she was trafficked to him by Epstein when she was 17. Thirsk and Andrew saw it as an opportunity to publicly address the controversy, believing it would help him regain credibility. The interview was arranged through direct negotiations between Thirsk and the Newsnight team, with Prince Andrew ultimately agreeing to the sit-down, which was filmed inside Buckingham Palace in November 2019.However, the interview turned into a public relations disaster for Prince Andrew. Instead of clearing his name, his lack of remorse, bizarre explanations, and contradictions only fueled greater criticism. He infamously claimed he could not have been with Giuffre on the alleged night because he was at Pizza Express in Woking and insisted he could not sweat due to a medical condition. The broadcast led to intense backlash, forcing Andrew to step back from royal duties days later. BBC journalist Sam McAlister, who negotiated the interview, later revealed that Andrew and his team failed to anticipate how damning his answers would sound, leading to what is now regarded as one of the most disastrous royal interviews in history.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Mega Edition: Is Donald Trump John Doe 174 In The Epstein Files? (8/12/25)
In the September 2024 episode of the Lex Fridman Podcast, Donald Trump discussed the ongoing controversy surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s confidential files and client list. He stated that, if re‑elected, he would have “no problem” releasing additional Epstein‑related documents and said he would “probably” make the client list public—positioning the release as a matter of transparency subject to his re‑election.That promise—to “have no problem” unsealing the Epstein files if re-elected, voiced on the Lex Fridman podcast—now rings hollow given his administration’s actions. Despite that pledge, no substantive new revelations have been made. The Department of Justice, led by AG Pam Bondi, released heavily redacted materials in February and claimed there’s no client list—an assertion that infuriated many supporters and was declared “a lot of redacted nothing” by critics. Even under mounting pressure—including subpoenas from the House Oversight Committee and investigations into Clinton, Comey, and others—the administration has shifted from transparency to deflection, labeling the entire Epstein files saga a “Democratic hoax” and telling supporters not to dwell on it.Also..A Business Insider analysis of unsealed court records revealed that Donald Trump is identified as John Doe 174 in a set of Jeffrey Epstein-related documents. These “Doe” placeholders were used to anonymize nearly 200 individuals mentioned in the files—ranging from Epstein’s wealthy acquaintances to others referenced in passing. The revelation stemmed from a 2024 court order that unsealed previously redacted information, including the specific identity behind Doe 174.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Trump suggests he’ll release Jeffrey Epstein ‘client list’ if elected (nypost.com)source:It Sure Looks Like Donald Trump Is Doe 174 in Epstein Documents (businessinsider.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The Predator and His Protectors: Glenn Dubin And His Place Within Jeffrey Epstein's Orbit (Part 2) (8/11/25)
Glenn Dubin is a billionaire hedge fund manager and major figure in New York’s high society whose long, troubling relationship with Jeffrey Epstein went far beyond casual acquaintance. Even after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for sex crimes involving a minor, Dubin — along with his wife, Eva Andersson-Dubin — kept him close, inviting him into their home, allowing him to spend holidays like Thanksgiving with their children, and maintaining financial and social ties. This wasn’t ignorance; it was an active choice to normalize a convicted sex offender in one of Manhattan’s most influential households, effectively lending Epstein the legitimacy he needed to remain welcome in elite circles.Dubin’s continued embrace of Epstein, despite years of mounting allegations and sworn victim testimony naming him as a participant in Epstein’s abuse, reveals a staggering moral blindness — or worse, a conscious decision to protect a friend whose crimes were well-documented. By keeping the door open for Epstein socially, professionally, and philanthropically, Dubin became part of the protective cocoon that allowed Epstein to survive and thrive after his conviction. In doing so, he not only damaged his own reputation beyond repair but also exemplified the elite complicity that kept Epstein’s network intact long after it should have collapsed.And that's not even the worst of what Glenn Dubin has been accused of...to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
