Brief Overview

In this “Mega Edition” episode, host Bobby Capucci delves into the disturbing phenomenon of Jeffrey Epstein’s continued acceptance within elite social and media circles—even after his first conviction as a sex offender. Capucci explores how powerful individuals and media figures continued to associate with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, unpacks notable social events and dinners involving celebrities, and scrutinizes the failures and complicity of legacy media. The episode also discusses the details and fallout of major legal cases, newly unsealed depositions, and why accountability has been long delayed for Epstein’s network of enablers.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Elite Parties After Epstein’s Conviction

• The episode opens with scathing criticism of media personalities like Katie Couric and George Stephanopoulos for attending a 2011 Epstein-hosted dinner in honor of Prince Andrew—after Epstein’s sex offense conviction ([00:33]–[02:56]).
• Capucci highlights the hypocrisy:

  "All of these blowhards, the ivory tower inhabitants, show up to his house, to his party and act like it's no big deal. ... No self responsibility ever. It's always somebody else's fault." (Bobby Capucci, [00:37])

• Capucci openly calls out Couric and Stephanopoulos for backpedaling in recent years, emphasizing their refusal to take responsibility for enabling Epstein’s return to society.
• He derides how legacy media and elites gaslight the public.

  "They continuously try to gaslight you and tell you what you know to be a fact is not a fact and make you feel crazy." (Bobby Capucci, [06:07])

---

2. The Prince Andrew Dinner: “Eyes Wide Shut” Mansion

• The episode examines excerpts from Katie Couric’s memoir, where she describes her discomfort at the dinner and notes “creepy chandeliers and body part art,” yet still stayed and ate ([07:01]).
• Capucci mocks these retroactive concerns:

  “So it wasn’t creepy enough for you to cut out though, was it?... Now in hindsight, oh, there was young girls, it was weird. But she sure sat her ass down and stuffed her face full of lasagna, didn’t she?” ([07:03], paraphrased)

• He also critiques Prince Andrew’s excuses for visiting Epstein in 2010—allegedly to “honorably” end their friendship:

  “What sort of man, never mind the Prince of England hops on a plane, flies across the pond to come and break off a friendship with some dude? ... Is that normal behavior? ... That's obviously status quo.” ([04:13])

• Prince Andrew downplays the significance of the dinner, calling it a “small dinner party”—claims flatly rejected by Capucci, who cites evidence of it being a celebration ([10:16]).

---

3. Media Responsibility and Failures

• Capucci launches into a broader critique of the legacy media’s failures to pursue the Epstein story due to self-interest, celebrity allegiance, or fear ([02:57], [12:33], [29:14]).
• He dissects the conduct of Vanity Fair, especially the 2014 Oscar party featuring Ghislaine Maxwell and Elon Musk’s infamous photo:

  "But for me, the fact that she was still invited to this Vanity Fair party in 2014, after Vanity Fair already knew what Epstein and Maxwell were up to for all of these years, is just straight up lunacy." (Epstein Chronicles Host, [18:29])

• Vicky Ward’s attempts to cover Epstein’s abuse are discussed, including the editorial killing of survivors’ stories by Vanity Fair’s Graydon Carter ([27:26]; [29:14]):

  “If you believe [the victims] and your editor decides to kill the story, would you still run it? ... Me, I'd go to a different outlet or I'd run it independently. What's the worst that's going to happen? You're going to lose your job.” ([29:10]–[29:30])

---

4. The Maxwell/Musk Vanity Fair Party: "She Photobombed Me"

• The episode scrutinizes Elon Musk’s repeatedly shifting public statements about his photo with Ghislaine Maxwell at Vanity Fair ([17:16], [21:44], [25:30]), arguing Musk’s denials stretch credibility:

  "The constant denial of even knowing these people is just beyond the moon. Stupid. If you have the kind of money Elon Musk has. You were rubbing shoulders with Ghislaine Maxwell." ([17:16])

• Capucci points out the broader issue: the social acceptance of Maxwell within elite circles long after her criminality was known.

  “Isn't that concerning to all of you? That these people throwing these parties ... think it's a good idea to be palling around with Ghislaine Maxwell all the way up to at least 2014 and beyond?” ([25:30])

• He drives home the media's self-serving narrative management and willingness to bury or spin stories to protect their own.

---

5. The Extent of Epstein's Web—Who Knew What?

• Capucci asserts it stretches credulity to believe elites remained ignorant of Epstein’s abuse, especially given the nature of his homes:

  “I would say the first time they came to that property, there is nude pictures everywhere ... If you walked foot into Jeffrey Epstein's house and you went in there and you continued to be an acquaintance ... you would have had to know what was going on in there." (Virginia Roberts, as quoted by Bobby Capucci, [51:45])

• Survivors Virginia Roberts and Sarah Ransome’s testimonies are referenced to highlight how obvious Epstein’s predatory behavior was to visitors ([38:27]–[44:57]).
• Capucci notes the lack of legal action by powerful individuals accused by survivors, raising skepticism about their claims of innocence and shining a harsh light on their avoidance tactics ([41:07]):

  “All these people that have been credibly accused by Virginia, why haven't they sued if they didn't do it and they're being unfairly called out onto the carpet? ... None of these people have done it. What are they scared of?”

---

6. Legal Cases, Unsealed Depositions, and Ongoing Secrecy

• Significant time is spent breaking down recent unsealed legal depositions, especially those involving Prince Andrew and Alan Dershowitz ([13:40], [44:57]).
• Capucci highlights the continued use of settlements, redacted names, and Fifth Amendment pleas by Epstein’s circle, noting secrecy still pervades the case ([53:02]):

  "For all that is illuminated in the documents unsealed over the past week, many secrets remain. ... There's no doubt. People who were going to this island ... all knew what was up."

Tone & Style

Bobby Capucci employs a no-nonsense, combative tone, openly mocking hypocrisy and calling out both elites and media figures by name. He distrusts “legacy media” narratives, highlights survivor evidence, and presses hard on the need for accountability and truth—often with biting sarcasm and a demand for clear language over PR spin.

---

Summary Takeaway

Capucci’s episode serves as a thorough indictment of the social, legal, and media forces that enabled Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse both before and after his conviction. The conversation underscores three main points: the systemic willingness of elites to look the other way, the depths of media complicity and failure, and the powerful ripple effects of survivor testimony—even amid persistent secrecy, denials, and settlements. The episode is punctuated by a call for vigilance and for never allowing the powerful to rewrite history or evade justice.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

we're going to talk about the dinner

[Bobby Capucci]

at Jeffrey Epstein's for Prince Andrew. Now I've always wondered why more hasn't been made of this. You had people like Katie Couric there. You had George Stepanopoulos there. And this is all after the fact that after this dude was known to be a sex offender after he went to jail already. And all of these blowhards, the ivory tower inhabitants, show up to his house, to his party and act like it's no big deal. Oh well, I was a plus one or I was invited by so and so. No self responsibility ever. It's always somebody else's fault. And these people all show up to this party acting like it's a good old time, thinking to themselves, ah, well this is great, we're gonna go hang out with Jeffrey Epstein. Meanwhile, the dude was preying on children. And all of these people, the Katie Courics of the world, the George Stephanopoulos of the world, I have no use for any of them. They sit around with their 40, 50 million dollar contracts and regurgitate shit off of the teleprompter and act like they're journalists. They are not talking heads. And what they are really is hypocrites, the whole lot of them. Never been a fan of Katie Couric, certainly never been a fan of George Stephanopoulos. And this just reaffirms my dislike for the both of them as we go back into this article and talk about this dinner that they all attended. So let's do that. Let's jump into this article from Newsweek and author Jack Royston and let's see what's what. Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew dinner was at Eyes Wide Shut Mansion according to Katie Couric. Oh, now she has something to say about it, huh? Back in 2011 when she was at this dinner, though, it was cool for her to be there to clout chase. It was cool for her to Be there to try and get close to the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family. Now, though. Oh, well, it was like Eyes Wide Shut. It was so weird.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Oh, shut up already.

[Bobby Capucci]

Save it, Katie Couric. Again. I have no use for any of these legacy media clowns and I don't know how anyone else could have any use for them either. It is an absolute joke the way that they try and cover the news these days. Unless they can form political fractures between people, they have no desire to dig into a story. And especially people like Katie Couric and George Stepanopoulos. Part of the problem. Jeffrey Epstein's mansion was like Eyes Wide Shut with a twist during a dinner with Prince Andrew, according to Katie Couric's memoir. Oh, her memoir. I'm Katie Couric. I need to write myself a memoir. These people have such an inflated opinion of themselves and all of the sycophants that pray to them on a daily basis. By tuning in, I just don't get it. I really don't understand. What do you walk away from when you watch these shows besides having your biases confirmed? I just don't understand. I don't watch any of these shows. I don't care about any of these

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

news commentators, be it Hillary, I mean,

[Bobby Capucci]

Rachel Maddow or Sean Hannity, I do not care. They're all smear merchants. They're all pushing an agenda and none of them have the best interest of the overall country at heart. It's all about pushing their message, getting their football down the field. And I'm tired of it. I'm just, I'm tired of it. The Duke of York told the BBC he stayed with the New York financier. So we're still calling him a New York financier, huh? Jack Royston, who was at the time a convicted pedophile and order to break off the friendship honorably in 2010. So again, what sort of man, never mind the Prince of England hops on a plane, flies across the pond to come and break off a friendship with some dude? Does that sound normal to you? Is that normal behavior? Well, not for you or I, but for the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family, that's obviously status quo. So this clown says he flew over to America to break off his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein in an honorable manner. Meanwhile, this scumbag won't even leave Balmoral to go and speak to the FBI. Absolute and utter disregard for everybody. These so called elite

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

and the way

[Bobby Capucci]

that they go about their business is not sustainable. Queen Elizabeth II's son was dismissive of suggestions. A party was thrown in his honor and said, I went there with the sole purpose of saying to him that because he had been convicted, it was inappropriate for us to be seen together. Yeah, that's not true. Okay, it was a party for you. You're the guest of honor there, pal. Katie Couric's there to see you. George Stepanopoulos is there, Woody Allen's gross asses there. Come on, act like it's not a party. And this is what they do. They continuous. They continuously try to gaslight you and tell you what you know to be a fact is not a fact and make you feel crazy. And they've been doing it for years. But that ship has sailed. Now people are paying attention. And now that the legacy media no longer has complete control of the narrative, well, you see the panic within the so called elite. However, Katie Couric describes being at a dinner party Epstein threw where Andrew was a guest, saying the townhouse was like

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Eyes Wide Shut with a twist, creepy

[Bobby Capucci]

chandeliers and body part art. So it wasn't creepy enough for you to cut out though, was it? You, I'm sure you shout, you sat down, Katie Couric, had yourself a nice little meal there, Katie Couric. And did you go and report anything to anybody else about the creepy feels

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

that you were getting in the place

[Bobby Capucci]

or that there were young girls everywhere or naked pictures of people on the wall or none of that. Oh, okay, I get it. The former Today host said lasagna was served in bowls and Epstein held courts by the fireplace. But her then boyfriend, Brooks Perlin commented on the women who took their coats,

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

noting how young they were.

[Bobby Capucci]

So you were aware. Is that what Katie Couric is telling us? She's aware at how young these women are and she still hangs out and has her lasagna in a bowl, which, by the way, get yourself thrown right out of an Italian household, you show up with any kind of lasagna in a bowl, we're gonna have some. We're gonna have words, bro. That's a plate that goes on a plate, okay? And I don't want to hear anything about vegetarian lasagna either. So they go there, they're at this little. This, this nice little soiree. And Katie Couric, you know, now in hindsight, oh, there was young girls, it was weird. But she sure sat her ass down and stuffed her face full of lasagna, didn't she? In extracts of her biography Going There, published by the Daily Mail, she writes, I could imagine what Epstein and Andrew were up to. Apart from trying to cultivate. I couldn't imagine what Epstein and Andrew were up to, apart from trying to cultivate friends in the media, which in retrospect they must have figured they'd need when the pedophilia charges started rolling in.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

I. Oh, so she acts like she

[Bobby Capucci]

had no part in that. Refurbishing his reputation or helping his. His reputation be rebuilt. I mean, really, you're the one there. You're giving him credibility. You're Katie Couric, but you're hanging out at Jeffrey Epstein's. So what she's trying to do is paint herself in a different light here, a better light in. In hindsight. But we all know the score and we all know the scoop. People like Katie Couric, George Stepanopoulos, Woody Allen, none of them care about you. Not for one second. Do you. Should you think that any of these people care about you? They do not. And when we put people on a pedestal, it becomes dangerous. Prince Andrew stepped back from public life after a car crash interview with Emily Maitlis on BBC Newsnight in November of 2019. When she asked him about the dinner, the prince said, Ah, in 2010, there certainly wasn't a party to celebrate his release in December because it was a small dinner party. There were only eight or 10 of us, I think at the dinner, if there was a party, then I'd know nothing about it. Oh, no, not at all. And again, how can we take this guy seriously, meaning the Joe Exotic of

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

the Windsor family when he's done nothing

[Bobby Capucci]

but bullshit and lie the whole entire time? Oh, it wasn't a party. I never met Virginia. Never mind the picture I have with her. Never mind what you see, listen to what I tell you. And it's that kind of bizarro world that we find ourselves in.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

And I keep saying it as a

[Bobby Capucci]

joke, but I'm starting to become more and more convinced that we're in a simulation. And the kid who's playing the simulation is one of those, like, really obese kids that sucks down like Jolt Cola and shit. And he just decided to get up and leave the game running for a month, like SimCity on staying with Epstein in New York.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

He added, at the end of the day, with the benefit of all the

[Bobby Capucci]

hindsight that one can have, it was definitely the wrong thing to do. But at the time I felt it was the honorable and right thing to do. And I admit fully that my judgment was probably colored by my tendency to be too honorable. But that's just the way. It is too honorable. His tendency to be too honorable. I mean, wow, talk about taking a whiz on my back and telling me it's raining. Is this guy for real? You're about as honorable as the most unhonorable person in history. It is absurd that this guy would push the narrative of him being so honorable that he had to fly across the pond to break up with Jeffrey Epstein. Does anybody believe that? I mean, besides his mother, Besides, you know, that enabler, the Queen? She definitely believes them.

the Duke was also photographed walking in Central park with Epstein during the same stay over several days in December of 2010. Now think about this. We're talking about the Prince of England. Dude could stay anywhere he wants in the whole city. He'll get a comp room anywhere, Waldorf

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Astoria, whatever it may be.

[Bobby Capucci]

Instead, I'm gonna go stay at Jeffrey Epstein's house. I'm gonna break up with him, but I'm gonna stay at his house anyway cause that's not awkward or anything. None of it makes sense. And I have spent countless hours trying to make it make sense to myself, and I keep coming back to the same place. It doesn't make any sense because none of it's true. Prince Andrew is being sued by Virginia Roberts, who says she was made to have sex with him in London, New York and the US Virgin Islands while she was 17 in the early 2000s. The Joe Exotic of the Windsor family initially challenged attempts to serve him papers in the case, but has now accepted he has been served and has been

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

given until October 29th to respond.

[Bobby Capucci]

So the whole hubbub of him trying to act like he wasn't served was ridiculous on its face. From Jump street of course you were served, you clown. Quit trying to muddle things up. Quit trying to make things more difficult. Accept the fact that you've been served, prepare your defense and let's get this ball rolling, roberts lawyers wrote in a filing during each of the aforementioned incidents. Roberts was compelled by express or implied threats by epst, Maxwell and or Prince Andrew to engage in sexual acts with Prince Andrew and fear death or physical injury to herself or another and other repercussions for disobeying Epstein, Maxwell and Prince Andrew due to their powerful connections, wealth and authority. Nobody should be fearing anybody because of their power, their wealth or their authority. Unfortunately in real life they that is the case. But these people who have set the table for so long, these people who have called the shots for so long, I think they've pushed it a bit too far and I think people around the world have had enough.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

The Prince's lawyer, Andrew B. Bretler told

[Bobby Capucci]

a New York court on September 13th we believe however, that this is a baseless, non viable and and potentially unlawful lawsuit. There has been a settlement agreement that the plaintiff has entered into on a prior action that releases the Duke and

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

others from any and all potential liability.

[Bobby Capucci]

Andrew denies any sexual relationship with Roberts. So we know that that release is going to be handed over or has already been handed over to Prince Andrew's team for them to do with it whatever they want. According to David Boies and Co. It's an irrelevant document. Now we'll have to see one way or the other what happens. The court obviously will make the final decision. They'll take a look at everything and they'll make the decision on what's going to be used, what's not going to be used, what's right and what's wrong. But I have a hard time believing that the document that was in question here is going to be enough to make it so. The Joe Exotic of the Windsor family doesn't even go on trial, highly doubt that's going to happen. But the fact that people like Katie Couric, George Stephanopoulos and others who are in Epstein's sphere, in his web of influence, have not caught more flack is beyond me. And I know, I get it. Katie Couric's a darling of the legacy media, but I don't care about her one way or the other. She's a non factor to me. And all of these people that were hanging out with Epstein, refurbishing his image, helping him climb that social ladder, all of them, at least in my opinion, are enablers.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. There's a story making the rounds today about Elon Musk and Ghislaine Maxwell and the picture that they took together at that Vanity Fair party. Now, Musk has maintained that he was photobombed and that he doesn't know Ghislaine Maxwell. Well, I never bought that to begin with. Now, I'm not saying Elon Musk was part of their criminal operation or anything like that, but the whole she photobombed me, that never really tracked with me. You guys are always at these same parties together. Don't act like you don't know her at all, because that's not the case, right? Oh, I have no idea who she is. Well, you've had meetings with her, right? You guys know who she is. And to try and act like it was just a photobomb, You've never had any conversation with her. That's what makes it look suspect. The constant denial of even knowing these people is just beyond the moon. Stupid. If you have the kind of money Elon Musk has. You were rubbing shoulders with Ghislaine Maxwell.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Now, that doesn't mean you are inviting

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

her to your house so that you guys could build gingerbread houses. But at these parties, there's no doubt that Elon Musk was rubbing shoulders with Ghislaine Maxwell. They were at all of the same parties. I think the real story here, though, is the fact that Clayne Maxwell was still being invited to all of these parties. Now, I know that the Elon Musk angle is what gets clicks, right? And that's what's going to bring people into the articles to read. But for me, the fact that she was still invited to this Vanity fair party in 2014, after Vanity Fair already knew what Epstein and Maxwell were up to for all of these years, is just straight up lunacy. Vicki Ward had the story. They decided to leave the part out about Epstein, you know, molesting women. And then in 2014, you invite Ghislaine Maxwell to your party. So how does that track with all of the stuff that you have told us in the aftermath? How the story wasn't killed because of Epstein and how it just didn't meet your editorial standards? Seems to me that that's all bs. And all of these outlets, such as Vanity Fair, that want to rewrite history, well, we're not going to let him off the hook because there's no way in hell Ghislaine Maxwell should be at this Vanity Fair party in the first place. Today's article is from the Daily Mail. Headline, ghislaine Maxwell asked Elon Musk to destroy the Internet after inquiring with Tesla billionaire whether it was possible to remove yourself from web completely. Vanity Fair reporter reveals. So, again, look, for me, it comes as no surprise that a guy like Elon Musk would be rubbing shoulders with these people. We've talked about it before, and we'll continue to talk about it. Pretty much anyone who travels those halls in a place like New York City is gonna be associated with Epstein, at least back in the day. Now, obviously, the guy's dead, so not a little difficult for that to occur. But I'm talking about while he was alive. And the fallout from the connections him and Maxwell made socially are still dropping on people like bombs. This article was authored by Stephen Lepore. Tesla CEO Elon Musk apparently took questions from convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell at a 2004 Vanity Fair party, where a now infamous photo of the two together emerged. Musk, 51, has denied knowing Maxwell several times and has argued on Twitter in the past that she photobombed the billionaire and would be Twitter CEO. So it would have been simple, right? If you had this conversation just to come out and say, look, we had this conversation. She's crazy. She was asking me to shut down the Internet. I told her to kick rocks. But instead, it has to be, oh, I don't know her, I've never met her, I have no idea who she is.

[Bobby Capucci]

I.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

And what that does is it opens yourself up to all sorts of questions. A new story, sourced to a Vanity Fair staffer, however, said that the two had a conversation at the magazine's Oscar party where the picture was snapped, and I have no doubt that they did. Now, again, I'm not saying that Elon Musk is a part of Jeffrey Epstein's criminal operation. I'll leave that to other people to talk about. For me, it's about the fact that he says, oh, I don't even know her, and she photobombed me when we know that that's not the case, right? Why with the little lies? Why not just be truthful? The staffer claims Maxwell, currently serving her sentence at Florida's FCI Tallahassee Prison, asked M. Musk if there was a way to remove oneself from the Internet, according to the New York Times. Here's a good way to do that. Ghislaine, don't be a scumbag. Don't do scummy things and then you don't have to worry about removing yourself from the Internet. I know it's a novel idea just to live your life halfway decently, but, you know, probably advice you should have followed. Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison in June for assisting Jeffrey Epstein in his elaborate sex trafficking scheme. She is currently serving her time at Florida's low security FCI Tallahassee prison. To wrap up their chat. Nearly 10 years ago, Maxwell allegedly asked Musk why aliens had yet to make contact with humans. Well, that's an easy answer. They haven't made contact with us because of people like you, Ghislaine Maxwell. Well, you don't think the aliens have the news up there? You don't think their satellite dishes reach here? What do you think the aliens, if there are aliens, what do you think they think about Earth and the way we conduct ourselves? We can't even get along with our own neighbors, never mind with galactic beings from a different part of the universe. I mean, if we can't even get along with people who are basically like us, you think that we're going to get along with some alien race that shows up here with tentacles and 14 eyes? Hell no. So as far as the aliens go, that's why they haven't come. In my opinion, they don't want to deal with people like Elaine Maxwell. They know that there's Jeffrey Epstein's on this planet and a bunch of morons that think it's a good idea to walk us to the very edge of nuclear war. That's why the aliens haven't come. The tech mogul's response, the staffer said, was the was that all civilizations eventually end, including potential alien ones, and even suggested that humans live in a simulation. Now that might not be too far off. And if we are living in a simulation, whoever's running this game, it's like Sim City, right? It's like having a 16 or 17 year old kid playing Sim City who decides he's going to leave the game on and then just go out with his friends and then whatever happens in the city happens. So if we're living in a simulation, my guess is whoever's running it doesn't give a about what's going on here. Musk has addressed the photo a few times as after being accused of befriending Maxwell, known as billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's right hand woman with a photo as

He added context and an alibi in the second tweet saying she photobombed me at a Vanity Fair Oscar party. Was there with Tallulah Riley. Don't know Ghislaine Maxwell at all. Why do you think it should be a bigger story? Well, it should be a big story to the point of she's hanging out with people like you still considering she shouldn't be. And it should be a bigger story because she's at this Vanity Fair party at all. She should not have been invited. For me, that's the biggest issue here, folks. The fact that she's still being invited to all of these parties. The fact that she's still being invited to all of these events. Isn't that concerning to all of you? That these people that are throwing these parties, these big shots in media and elsewhere, think it's a good idea to be palling around with Ghislaine Maxwell all the way up to at least 2014 and beyond? We know about Bezos party too. Riley Musk's second wife and an actress who starred in HBO's Westwood also denied knowing Maxwell. In a statement on Twitter in July 2020, Musk tweeted a response to someone asking about the photo don't know Ghislaine at all. She photobombed me once at a Vanity Fair party several years ago. Real question is why Vanity Fair invited her there in the first place.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

That is the real question.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

Now of course, that doesn't absolve Elon Musk of Ask answering any questions about his relationship with her or how he knew her or what they were doing together or anything like that. But the question has to be asked, what's Vanity Fair even thinking them, especially considering they're the ones who had all of this information to start with Graydon Carter and Vicky Ward and they didn't do anything with it. So it's even more mind numbing that they would have this event and invite Ghislaine Maxwell.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Really.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

The Vanity Fair party was thrown by then Editor in Chief Graydon Carter, who was also in charge of the magazine in 2002, when a profile of Epstein that included sexual assault allegations were suddenly cut. So Graydon Carter throws this party right for Vanity Fair after knowing everything that he knew about Epstein, about Maxwell. It's not like this was someone who was not hip to what was going on. He knew exactly what. Who this person was. He knew exactly what Maxwell was and chose to still have her at this party. So you do with that what you will, but for me, it just shows you the lack of caring and the lack of compassion for Epstein survivors for all of these years. And not only that, they didn't even believe in a lot of these cases, that this stuff even happened. And if they truly did believe that, well, would they kill the story? Would they not run it on abc? The cynic in me says even if they knew it was real, they wouldn't have run it during that period of time. Now, these days, a little bit different, maybe, but certainly during the time we're talking about, every step that you could possibly imagine was taken to make sure that Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell weren't outed in all of these articles that were produced about them. The article by journalist Vicki Ward included allegations against Maxwell and Epstein by two sisters, Annie and Marie Farmer. Separately, each told me that Epstein had sexually abused both of them, Annie, when she was just 15. I believe them and I wanted to publish their story. But to my dismay, the sister's allegations did not make it into my Vanity Fair article.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Ward wrote for the daily mail in 2021.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

Now, think about that for a minute. If you believe them and your editor decides to kill the story, would you still run it? Or would you just say, all right, I guess I'm not going to run this story and I'm just going to sit on. Sit on it forever?

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Me, I'd go to a different outlet

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

or I'd run it independently. What's the worst that's going to happen? You're going to lose your job. According to Ward, Carter told her that the publication's lawyers didn't believe her reporting was sufficient and that even though she maintains she had three sources supporting their allegations, Epstein had appeared in the magazine offices himself prior to the edit. And if Graydon Carter was so intimidated by Jeffrey Epstein the way he said he was, then why was he still palling around with Ghislaine Maxwell? Why would he invite Ghislaine Maxwell to this party? It is, to say the least, highly unusual for the subject of an investigative magazine article that to appear in the offices of the outlet profiling them and perhaps especially in the editor's office. Ward wrote, well, why did you guys let it occur? Why did you let him in there? Why not call the police? Did the impeccably well connected Epstein put pressure on the magazine to drop any hint of the sexual abuse I had uncovered.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Uncovered about him?

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

I don't know. See, I don't like how she tries to absolve herself here. Because you have to do the right thing no matter what. If you have information about something like this, why would you be sitting on it? Oh, I got to wait for my book to come out? What does that even mean? Is that what a journalist is supposed to do? Sit on information and wait to write a book or head to your outlet and get out an article quickly? Maxwell, 60, was convicted after the FBI brought charges against her of enticement of miners and sex trafficking of underage girls related to her association with the late pedophile Epstein. She was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment. To add to her woes, lawyers at the small Colorado based firm HMF who say they represented Maxwell in lawsuits brought by survivors of her former boyfriend Epstein dating back to 2017 and her by the way, not just Epstein, remember she took part in the abuse, are now suing her family for $850,000. Four women gave evidence against Maxwell during her weeks long trial. A victim known as Jane, Annie Farmer, Kate, and another woman called Carolyn. So this is why it's even more damning for Vanity Fair in my opinion. Not only did they refuse to run Annie's story, but Annie's story and Annie's allegations were part of the basis for the prosecution of Galaine Maxwell. So that that tells you that they were sitting on a story of severe sexual abuse and in fact killed it instead of running it. Are you comfortable with that from your so called legacy Media calls, everybody else conspiracy theorists and all sorts of other horrible things. Over three weeks, the jury heard how Maxwell served up underage girls for Epstein and relished her role as lady of the house at his mansion in Palm Beach, Florida between 1994 and 2004. Lawyers argued Maxwell was Epstein's right hand and paid $200 for sexualized massages or even took part in the abuse. Yes, yes and yes, all of that happened. The survivors, some as young as 14, were given a similar amount of money if they brought friends to Epstein. The Jordan, the jury was told. So that shows you the Ponzi scheme, right? And just how disgustingly gross all of this really was. During the trial Prosecutors called 24 witnesses to give jurors a picture of the life inside Epstein's homes, a subject of public fascination and speculation ever since his 2006 arrest in Florida in a child sex case. Well, it wouldn't have to be speculation. It wouldn't have to be people making up stories if the official narrative was just true. A housekeeper testified he was expected to be blind, deaf and dumb about the private lives of Epstein, a financier pedophile who cultivated friendships with influential politicians and business tycoons. Pilots took the witness stand and dropped

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

the names of luminaries.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

Britain's Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, who flew on Epstein's private jets. Jurors also saw physical evidence like a folding massage table once used by Epstein and the black book that listed contact information for some of the survivors under the heading massages. There were bank records showing he transferred $30.7 million to Maxwell. Additionally, prosecutors produced a 58 page household manual covering every single aspect of running the house in Palm beach that they indicated Maxwell had written. There were dozens of checklists for each area of the house, instructions on when to replace the toothpaste and what brands of creams to buy. So everything was completely micromanaged by Ghislaine Maxwell, who was the, the, the. The boss here. She was running the whole show. And the 30.7 million dollar transfer, that's all you need right there for a RICO case, folks. I know, I know. RICO this, RICO that, RICO vafangul at this point. But it would be nice if the government would at least make pretend they care about people like this, wouldn't it? All right, folks, well, there you have it. Talking about Elon Musk and his conversation with Ghislaine Maxwell at the Vanity Fair party. And for my money, I don't know why he just didn't say that from Jump Street. Look, this lady came up to me, we were talking about aliens. She asked me to shut down the Internet and I shut her down. Done. Keep it moving. But instead, it's always the same song and dance with these people.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

Oh, I don't know her.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

I've never met her. When that's obviously not the case. And that's what we have seen time and time again from people who have been associates of Epstein and Maxwell who have been called out. And for me, I'm getting pretty tired of it, honestly. How about just a little bit of candor here, folks? A little bit. But Vanity Fair, I mean, for real, for real, this is 2014. We're talking years after the conviction, years after these girls have come out and talked about what's going on, years after we've known all of the rumors and your legacy media, Vanity Fair, thank you. Thinks it's a good idea to invite Ghislaine Maxwell to their little soiree. Well, says everything you need to know about everybody involved, doesn't it? All right, folks, it's going to do it for this episode.

What's up, everyone? And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. One of the key elements of Jeffrey Epstein's human trafficking ring was the fact that he had so much wealth and so much influence. This is a man who had an extreme amount of power. And, and that power basically all originated from the contacts that he had with elected officials, business magnates and other people in positions of power. And all of these people that were hanging around him, all these people that were going to his house, going to the island, going to New Mexico, all of them will have you believe that they had no idea what was going on. And it's very difficult to prove otherwise. Right. You can't sit here and say, oh, well, I know for sure so and so knew what was going on. But when you look at the overall situation and you look at all of the information that has been coming out for years and years and years, it's very difficult for me to believe that these people had no idea what the hell was going on here. Especially considering these people that we're talking about, a lot of them, it's their job to know. So when people talk about, oh, well, so and so wasn't involved in the abuse, well, that's true. We have no evidence that Bill Clinton or Donald Trump or anyone like that was taking part in the abuse. But what we do know is that all of these dudes were along for the ride and all of them were benefiting from their relationship with Jeffrey Epstein one way or the other.

And guess who is picking up the tab. Like usual, it's the survivors. Today's article is from the Miami Herald and the headline Epstein Accusers say Financier Flaunted His Depravity and VIP Visitors had to be Aware. This article was authored by Julie K. Brown. In the end, whether they participated in illicit acts or not, anyone who visited the homes of Jeffrey Epstein, hung out at his pool or spend time in his presence would have to be blind to not spot what he was up to, according to two victims of the late sex trafficker. And that's spot on. Look, I don't understand how anyone could be around this dude going to his house, partying, whatever, and not be none the wiser. And anyone telling me that they don't know what's going on, I have my doubts. Virginia Roberts and Sarah Ransom made their observations and anguish sworn testimony in in the course of litigation that swirled around Epstein in his final years before his suicide, allegedly in prison. Years earlier, he had pleaded guilty in a Palm beach court to sex with an underage girl. After he got out of jail, Epstein was welcomed back by business leaders, politicians and celebrities. It was as if it had never happened. Well, that's what they hoped, right? They hoped that people would just forget about what happened, that people would be like, oh, he was just soliciting a minor. No big deal here. But the reality is it was a big deal. It is a big deal, and it's always going to be a big deal. A guy like Jeffrey Epstein should have never, ever been able to do what he did. And the only way that you're able to do this is if you're being protected by people who have a lot of power. And we already know that that's the case. The women, in their testimony unsealed on Tuesday, said he flaunted his attraction to young women and girls, some of them underage. The allegation is significant because so many famous people, from Donald Trump to Bill Clinton, were attracted to Epstein's orbit, flying on his plane, as in the case of Clinton, or as in Trump's case, partying with him at Mar a Lago, a scene captured on video. And there's no denying it. I know there's people out there that still want to act like Donald Trump wasn't buddies with Epstein back in the day. He was. But at the same time, we have to realize that there's levels to this. Clinton has denied anything improper happened while he was with Epstein, and a spokesman for Trump told Newsweek any allegations of wrongdoing are simply false and have no merit. You see, that's the rub here, right? Everybody wants to talk about wrongdoing, wrongdoing, wrongdoing. And I agree. But even when people are named directly as participating in the abuse, nobody has anything to say about that. Where's all the furor over Glenn Dubin or over George Mitchell or over Bill Richardson or over insert person here? Those are all names that have already been mentioned as credibly accused of partaking in the sexual abuse. But for some people, that's not salacious enough. They have to add everybody else, you know, they have to add people that aren't even involved, even remotely. And then what happens is the waters get even muddier. And it's very difficult at that point to try and swim to clarity, because once some bullshit gets out there and, you know, goes viral or whatever, forget it. The documents released on Tuesday are from a formally sealed defamation case litigated years ago. As is often the case with Epstein, they included salacious but largely unproven allegations by women who have lived traumatic lives made more difficult by their involvement with Epstein. See, here's where I differ from a lot of people. And any of these women who received a payout from the estate, that means the estate accepted liability for their abuse by Epstein. So it's not alleged anymore. Once that happens and that payout occurs, there are now victims of Jeffrey Epstein who have turned into survivors. No more alleged right now, again, if you're talking about Prince Andrew, we. Or you're talking about unconfirmed reports, then, yeah, it's alleged. All we have to go on is Virginia's word against Prince Andrew's. Now, obviously, you all know where I fall when it comes to who I believe, but nothing has been proven against Prince Andrew. Just to be clear. But those allegations are credible, and those allegations need to be investigated. Allegations have circulated for years about famous people having sex with women or girls procured by Epstein or his staff. The allegations have universally been denied. With the exception of a photo of Robert standing with Prince Andrew, scant telltale evidence has been presented. Well, enough evidence has been presented that this dude paid out over $125 million from his estate. Seems to me that some evidence was presented. No. Among the latest court documentation, Roberts, in a sworn deposition, insisted that both Bill Clinton and Les Wexner, who associated with Multi Millionaire, knew that Jeffrey Epstein was having sex with underage girls of Wexner, the billionaire owner of Victoria's Secret. Roberts said he did things that were wrong. He participated in sex with minors. A spokesman for Wexner denied he has ever met Roberts and said Wexner was never involved in any of the abhorrent behavior engaged in by Epstein. So here's the real question. All these people that have been credibly accused by Virginia, why haven't they sued if they didn't do it and they're being unfairly called out onto the carpet for something they didn't do, something as heinous as sexual assault, you'd think they'd want to challenge it, right? None of these people have done it. What are they scared of? I know if somebody came out and said that I did that and they didn't have any evidence to back it up, especially you better believe I'm going to come out swinging. And if I have millions of dollars in the bank, billions of dollars in the bank, yeah, it's gonna be Bobby Axelrod time. But these guys don't do it right. They all run from it, avoid it. And when you do that, more questions arise. In the same deposition, Roberts claimed that she was forced to have sex more than once with former Senator George Mitchell and Bill Richardson, a former governor of New Mexico, both denied that, and Richardson is now deceased. So George Mitchell and Bill Richardson, two of the heaviest hitters in the Democratic Party in the last, what, 30, 40 years. Both of those dudes tied to Epstein and credibly accused.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

So why did it take all this

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

time for people to come out and talk about what's happening? And furthermore, why did it take Alex Acosta being appointed as Labor Secretary to get Julie K. Brown involved? Shouldn't this story have been told a long time ago? And it would have been told a long time ago, by the way, if everybody would have just listened to what Maria was telling them. She went to the FBI and told the FBI what was up. Her and Annie both ignored. So I don't want to hear this. Oh, nobody knew what was going on. BS Roberts swore she was trafficked to a well known prime minister whom she refused to name because she feared it would put her life in danger. Roberts also testified about a number of women who were involved in having sex with her and and others for Epstein's entertainment. The documents are from a 2015 defamation lawsuit brought by Roberts against Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's longtime Lover and recruiter of girls and young women such as Roberts when she first met the pair as a teen. The case was resolved out of court in 2017 with Maxwell paying Roberts a multi million dollar settlement. Most of the documents, however, were sealed at that time. The Miami Herald, whose series Perversion of Justice led to Epstein's rearrest in 2019, which was followed by his death behind bars, sued successfully to unseal the case. And the documents have been released on a rolling basis over the past five days. More than that, they've been coming out for years now, but the last batch obviously has been released over the last few days. The never before released Roberts deposition was. Was actually part of an unrelated legal fight between famed lawyer Alan Dershowitz, who represented Epstein and was a house guest at his Palm beach estate, and two attorneys who represented Epstein victims. Dershowitz and the lawyers Bradley Edwards and Paul Cassell, filed dueling lawsuits in 2015 over Roberts allegations against Dershowitz. Roberts accused Dershowitz in an affidavit of having sex with her. Dershowitz denied all of Robert's accusations, which she later partially recanted, and her sworn affidavit was removed from the court record. So that really threw things into chaos.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

Right.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

When you retract a statement like that, people are going to start questioning what you have to say. But there's a lot more to it, in my opinion. Obviously, that's just speculation. I'm not positive. I haven't talked to Virginia. I don't know what's going on personally.

[Epstein Chronicles Host]

Right.

[Epstein Chronicles Commentator]

But when you've been litigating all these years, what more is there to prove? Especially considering nobody is in line to go to prison. So I think there was a little bit of the whole hesitancy because of a protracted legal battle with Dershowitz that led to Virginia just saying, you know what, let's just settle this and be done with it. Again, just my speculation. Also on Sealed Tuesday was Sarah Ransom's deposition. And we're making our way through that deposition right now, and it's another big one like Virginia's and Ghislaine Maxwell's. So we're going to make our way through it like we did the other ones, one bite at a time. But I think it's important for those documents to be part of the catalog so you can go and get an unfiltered view or an unfiltered listen at what happened. Among other things, Ransom's February 17, 2018 sworn testimony provides a graphic description of a sexual encounter. She said she had with Dershowitz and another Epstein survivor, Nadia Marcinkova, in Epstein's New York mansion, as well as what she said was a detailed description of Dershowitz physical characteristics. Dershowitz said that he had never met Ransom. Nothing she says should be believed. Dershowitz told the Herald. Well, since Alan Dershowitz told us that, I mean, I guess we should just all pack it up, pack it in, boys and girls. Everything's all good here. There's no issues. Everything's on the up and up. Jeffrey Epstein, he never did anything wrong, and he's being unfairly persecuted. It's basically what Dershowitz is saying. Dershowitz had repeatedly called for all the documents from the case to be unsealed, saying that they would vindicate him. He said he is very happy with the totality of these disclosures. Dershowitz and Epstein were friends for years. The Harvard law professor said he now regrets ever meeting Epstein and that their friendship ended when he took him on as a client. Oh, I'm sure it did. I'm sure that that's when everything came to a screeching halt. These people truly believe we're all stupid. That's what they believe. Unfortunately for them, the joke is on them. We're onto their bullshit and their stupid ass gaslighting, their dumbass excuses and all the nonsense. That ship is sailed. Now it's time for accountability. Dershowitz and Roberts filed lawsuits against each other, and they were settled in 2022. At that time, Roberts admitted that she may have been mistaken when she cited Dershowitz as someone who sexually abused her. Tom Davies, a spokesman for Wexner, pointed to a 2020 court document where his client issued a statement denying it. Robert's allegations. Mr. Wexner was unaware of and. And was never a participant in any of the abhorrent behavior engaged in by Epstein against Epstein's victims. That Mr. Wexner had never met Ms. Roberts and that any claims to the contrary are not true. The same thing he said about Maria Farmer and the fact that Maria Farmer was held against her will at the Albany mansion of Jeffrey Epstein. Wexner came out and said the same bs, right? I have no idea. I have never seen any of these people. I. I have no idea who Jeffrey Epstein is. And the saddest part about that is that the stooges in the legacy media, they just accept that BS and run with it. Oh, yeah, Wexner says he had nothing to do with it. So obviously Wexner had nothing to do with it. Meanwhile, these women have all kinds of evidence, all kinds of receipts. But what does that matter if Mr. Moneybags is telling you that he never did it? Roberts also described dinner parties attended by academics and luminaries, including Bill Clinton and Alan Tipper Gore. She said she was particularly moved by seeing how Gore doted over his wife during the dinner, noting, I thought he was a wonderful guy who loved his wife. He's just somebody that loves his wife that much. They later divorced. A spokesman for Gore said the former vice president has no recollection of ever meeting Epstein. Notice he didn't deny it, right? I have no recollection. That's lawyer speak for avoiding a trap. Clinton has denied he knew Epstein was sexually abusing anyone and also says he was never on Epstein's island. Her most detailed answers were the questions about Dershowitz, whom she claimed she was forced to have sex with six times. After being directed to describe one of the encounters in detail, she excused herself and vomited outside the room, according to the deposition. She emphasized that almost anyone who visited Epstein's homes should have known what he was doing. I would say the first time they came to that property, there is nude pictures everywhere, robert said. They are salacious acts of girls, young girls doing things to each other that would be considered child pornography. If you walked foot into Jeffrey Epstein's house and you went in there and you continued to be an acquaintance of his, then you would have had to know what was going on in there. You can call it an assumption, but like I said, you, you'd have to be blind to not know what was going on. And I agree with that. There was just too many signs here for people to run that BS that they had no idea what was going on. I had no idea what Ol Jeffrey

Sorry, I don't buy it. For all that is illuminated in the documents unsealed over the past week, many secrets remain. The documents include the full transcript of Epstein's September 9, 2016 deposition in which he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights 1,000 times, refusing to respond. Three names are redacted from a series of questions in which Epstein asked whether he sent Roberts to have sex with his powerful friends. At least one man's name remained redacted. In emails released Monday, Ransom referenced an email which was exchanged between name redacted using his codename redacted via sugardaddy.com I have other correspondence which I had with him in my storage box in England. In the same batch of emails, the name of someone Ransom said tried to rape her with his friend when we were at anchor on his boat in Miami remained redacted. In documents released on January 3, the names of two to three people subpoenaed for depositions were revealed. They were police officers, but a third name remained redacted in a witness list released on January 4. Redactions also covered nine names of people who may have or do have information about Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking conduct. One person who was present on the flights with Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Virginia Roberts and may have knowledge of the trafficking also was kept secret. And in the January 4th release and in an excerpt of a different Roberts deposition released last week, she is asked when Ghislaine Maxwell direct you to go have sex with followed by a name and that was redacted. So there's no doubt. People who were going to this island, people who were hanging out on this island, people who were partying with Epstein, people who were around them all the time, they all knew what was up. Obviously very difficult to prove that, but the people who were with him after he was arrested, they really have no defense, right? They have no leg to stand on. It's like a one legged man in an ass kicking contest just not going to work out well for you, the people before he was arrested. All right, you can say, look, I don't believe you, but I can't prove it. And that's pretty much where I'm at with all these people because from all of the accounts we've heard, from everything we know about Jeffrey Epstein's properties, I find it very, very hard to believe that the so called smartest men and women in the room had no idea what sort of monster they were breaking bread with. Alright, everybody that's gonna do it for this one. All of the information that goes with this episode can be found in the
