Speaker 1: the party, the bridge to get you from one full
0:36
Speaker 1: episode of Disgraceland to the other. The backyard, to dig
0:39
Speaker 1: into the dirt, our mission to uncover the truth, to
0:42
Speaker 1: confront the myth, to reclaim the story. On this bonus episode,
0:45
Speaker 1: we're digging into all the musicians mentioned in the Epstein Files,
0:49
Speaker 1: also talking a little bit about Hunter S. Thompson, previewing
0:53
Speaker 1: Bob Weir and Bohemian Grove, and we get into your emails, comments, dms,
0:57
Speaker 1: and as always, a whole lot of this is the
1:00
Speaker 1: podcast who have musically obsessed, the outsiders, the independent thinkers
1:04
Speaker 1: who know that the best history is the history that
1:07
Speaker 1: gets buried. Disgrace Liners, where I tell the stories they
1:09
Speaker 1: didn't want told, the kind you will end up telling
1:11
Speaker 1: someone else. All right, this goes, Let's get into it. Okay, guys.
1:29
Speaker 1: Jay Z is in the Epstein Files and Jack White,
1:32
Speaker 1: so Is, Kurt Cobain, Bono, McJagger, Courtney Love, Michael Jackson,
1:36
Speaker 1: R Kelly, Bruce, Springsteen, both Elvis's Presley and Costello, Lisa
1:43
Speaker 1: Marie Presley, Elton, John, Janis Joplin. There's a recent list
1:48
Speaker 1: that the Department of Justice put out there a couple
1:50
Speaker 1: of days ago. They don't say that it's an exhaustive
1:54
Speaker 1: list of all the sort of bold face names mentioned
1:57
Speaker 1: in the Epstein Files, but they kind of intimate that
1:59
Speaker 1: is there the list of companies. What they say, what
2:01
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice says, is their you know, their
2:04
Speaker 1: their final release of all of the Epstein information that
2:10
Speaker 1: DJ had that they were compelled to release by law
2:13
Speaker 1: from Congress. It's troubling for a number of different reasons.
2:19
Speaker 1: There's a lot of rock stars on this list. And
2:24
Speaker 1: the troubling part is that people see these names and
2:29
Speaker 1: they go, oh, no, Kirk Cobain, Please know Kirk Cobain
2:32
Speaker 1: the Epstein Files. I love Kirk Cobain, like there can't
2:34
Speaker 1: be Please tell me he wasn't an Epstein Island, you
2:37
Speaker 1: know what I mean? That makes no sense. Kirk Cobain
2:40
Speaker 1: would never be an Epstein Island for a gazillion different reasons,
2:43
Speaker 1: not to mention the timing historically of everything. But a
2:46
Speaker 1: lot of people do not understand what these files are.
2:52
Speaker 1: And when you do understand what they are and what
2:54
Speaker 1: they aren't, which is just as important, you can understand
2:59
Speaker 1: how anybody his name could be in these files. So
3:01
Speaker 1: we're talking about millions and millions and millions of documents. Okay,
3:04
Speaker 1: So what I want to do in this episode is
3:07
Speaker 1: I want to go through the musicians that are mentioned,
3:11
Speaker 1: and I want to just sort of tag them by
3:14
Speaker 1: the context, and you know what, what do we think
3:19
Speaker 1: of this based on the context, Because the last thing
3:22
Speaker 1: we need to be doing is running around going oh, no,
3:25
Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen is a pedophile because he's mentioned in the
3:28
Speaker 1: in the Epstein Files. That makes no friggin sense. Yet
3:32
Speaker 1: somehow that's the world we're in right now. Okay. On
3:35
Speaker 1: the other hand, there is some compelling information regarding some artists,
3:40
Speaker 1: some musicians that deserves some unwrapping here in the context
3:46
Speaker 1: of the Epstein Files, pertaining to their culpability, their alleged guilt,
3:51
Speaker 1: their interaction with with the FBI, et cetera. Okay, so
3:55
Speaker 1: we're gonna're gonna get into a bunch of this right now,
3:58
Speaker 1: or we're gonna get into a little bit more of
4:01
Speaker 1: it next week when we do the Bob Weir episode.
4:04
Speaker 1: That'll be Grateful To Part three, new episode on Bob
4:07
Speaker 1: Weir and the relationship with the Epstein File. With the
4:09
Speaker 1: Epstein Files, tell us about Bohemian Grove. Okay, but for
4:13
Speaker 1: right now, we're going to focus on the musicians in
4:15
Speaker 1: the Epstein Files. And just before we do that little
4:18
Speaker 1: house cleaning, this week we released into the wide feed
4:21
Speaker 1: our Hunter s Thompson episode. Hunter was not I don't know,
4:24
Speaker 1: maybe he wasn't the Epstein Files. I didn't search for him.
4:28
Speaker 1: I will. And this this week, the Rewind episode, we're
4:32
Speaker 1: featuring our episode on the Clash, So check those two out.
4:36
Speaker 1: And then next week, like I said, we're gonna have
4:38
Speaker 1: our Bob Weir episode, Part three, Grateful Dead. And when
4:42
Speaker 1: you're listening to that episode, I want to know your
4:44
Speaker 1: take on Bob Weir's involvement with Bohemian Grove. Okay, I'm
4:49
Speaker 1: clearly giving you mine. I want to know yours. Do
4:51
Speaker 1: you agree with my take? Do you have your own?
4:54
Speaker 1: Do you think I'm crazy? Get at me six one
4:56
Speaker 1: seven nine oh six six six three eight voicemail and text,
5:00
Speaker 1: or just hit me up disgracing PUD at gmail dot
5:03
Speaker 1: com to let me know. Now back to musicians rock
5:06
Speaker 1: stars in the Epstein files. First of all, what are
5:09
Speaker 1: the Epstein files? And what aren't the Epstein files? All right?
5:13
Speaker 1: What the files are? They are literally millions upon millions
5:16
Speaker 1: of government documents that the Department of Justice has in
5:21
Speaker 1: its POSI or had, I guess, because they've made it public,
5:23
Speaker 1: so now we all have it. And there's some debate
5:26
Speaker 1: over whether or not they've released everything. I personally cannot tell.
5:31
Speaker 1: I have no idea. I don't understand it. Okay, I'm
5:33
Speaker 1: just saying that right now. But will what I do
5:35
Speaker 1: you understand? There's millions and millions and millions of government
5:39
Speaker 1: documents that have been released by the Department of Justice
5:43
Speaker 1: pertaining to disgraced financier and convicted sex offender and friend
5:47
Speaker 1: to many, many, many powerful and famous people, Jeffrey Epstein.
5:52
Speaker 1: These Epstein files, what they're not is a definitive sort
5:57
Speaker 1: of case closed. Here's the file. Here's what you know.
6:01
Speaker 1: It's not even close to that. In fact, it's the
6:02
Speaker 1: exact opposite. Of that. What the files are are there.
6:06
Speaker 1: They include a gazillion emails to and from Jeffrey Epstein
6:11
Speaker 1: to his friends, many of them bold faced names that
6:14
Speaker 1: you've heard of, plus his texts, and they also include
6:19
Speaker 1: a mass The files also include a massive trove of
6:22
Speaker 1: documents and reports from Department of Justice officials, mainly FBI
6:27
Speaker 1: agents on Jeffrey Epstein, plus email and text exchanges between
6:32
Speaker 1: agents discussing Epstein, discussing the case, discussing the investigation. Now
6:38
Speaker 1: included in these conversations are FBI agents discussing Jeffrey Epstein's
6:45
Speaker 1: victims and the victim's allegations. A lot of these victims
6:51
Speaker 1: are anonymous, their names are redacted, and again it's important
6:55
Speaker 1: to remember that at the point these conversations in the
6:58
Speaker 1: Epstein files are taking place, they're just In a lot
7:02
Speaker 1: of cases, they're just conversations. So just just because a
7:07
Speaker 1: couple of FBI agents are discussing criminal allegations, that does
7:11
Speaker 1: not mean, in some cases anyways, that any evidence has
7:16
Speaker 1: been collected to substantiate the claims. Okay, imagine a cop show.
7:20
Speaker 1: You got two FBI agents talking about something they're investigating.
7:24
Speaker 1: That's essentially what a lot of this is okay, this
7:28
Speaker 1: the Epstein files are a lot. It's just a dump.
7:32
Speaker 1: It is a dump of information, a massive amount of information,
7:38
Speaker 1: and there's very little sort of like nothing's really wrapped
7:41
Speaker 1: in a bow or has been wrapped in a bow. Okay,
7:45
Speaker 1: to the extent that there's an investigation, I mean, I
7:47
Speaker 1: don't even know what it is. If the guy was
7:50
Speaker 1: in jail, he was gonna go on trial, he's dead,
7:53
Speaker 1: you know. Now, it's just like release the files, release
7:55
Speaker 1: the files. The files come out, and it's just like
7:58
Speaker 1: we're just like being water with information. And it's like, Okay,
8:01
Speaker 1: Bono's name and Kurt Kobe's saying, you know, Bruce Springsteen
8:05
Speaker 1: and Janis Joplin and r Kelly of A jay Z.
8:09
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. It's like, but what does
8:10
Speaker 1: it all mean? Well, this is, like I said, there's
8:12
Speaker 1: a certain amount of people out there who think that
8:13
Speaker 1: just because their names people's names are in these files,
8:16
Speaker 1: that means that they're guilty, guilty as something, you know,
8:20
Speaker 1: And in some cases maybe they are, but in a
8:22
Speaker 1: lot of cases they aren't. And this isn't meant to
8:24
Speaker 1: be something where I'm defending these rock stars because I'm
8:27
Speaker 1: a fan of rock music or whatever or these artists.
8:30
Speaker 1: That's not what this is. I'm just trying to make
8:32
Speaker 1: this mess a little bit cleaner for us to understand.
8:35
Speaker 1: So let's get a couple facts out of the way
8:37
Speaker 1: real quick. For the record, Jeffrey Epstein was convicted in
8:41
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight of procuring a child for prostitution
8:45
Speaker 1: and for soliciting prostitution. He did some time cushy time,
8:51
Speaker 1: like real cushy time. In twenty nineteen, Epstein was arrested
8:57
Speaker 1: and charged with sex trafficking, and he died in prison,
9:00
Speaker 1: officially from suicide, but unofficially. Come on back to my point.
9:05
Speaker 1: Just because an individual is mentioned in the Jeffrey Epstein files,
9:08
Speaker 1: that doesn't really mean anything. Context is everything. Context is everything. Okay, many, many,
9:15
Speaker 1: many people are mentioned, Lots of them famous and powerful,
9:18
Speaker 1: some of them guilty as sin, though most of them
9:21
Speaker 1: are innocent, just on balance, law of averages. We're talking
9:25
Speaker 1: three million documents or something like that. For this conversation,
9:30
Speaker 1: I'm focused on the musicians mentioned in the files. All right,
9:34
Speaker 1: If you want information on the rich and powerful from
9:37
Speaker 1: the Epstein files, talking about torture videos and talking in
9:42
Speaker 1: code about pizza and grape soda. You can get my
9:45
Speaker 1: thoughts on that in next week's Grateful Dead episode on
9:48
Speaker 1: Bob Weir like I mentioned, Okay that episode. That episode
9:52
Speaker 1: looks at the connection between the Epstein Files and Bohemian Grove.
9:56
Speaker 1: This episode looks at the musicians in the files, and
9:59
Speaker 1: like all the name in the files, I believe that
10:01
Speaker 1: some of these people are guilty and some of them
10:03
Speaker 1: are innocent. And just to note the title of this
10:05
Speaker 1: episode is the Epstein Files and every musician mentioned in them.
10:09
Speaker 1: We think it would be impossible. It would take years
10:13
Speaker 1: to list all of the musicians mentioned in the Epstein Files,
10:17
Speaker 1: in part because the files include emails Epstein receives from
10:22
Speaker 1: from publicists and events and and and venues that are
10:27
Speaker 1: that are advertising concerts and shows. Okay, so, like, I mean,
10:32
Speaker 1: come on, you could literally be like, who's a beloved
10:34
Speaker 1: musician Ringo Star. You could literally find Ringo Star's name
10:38
Speaker 1: in the Epstein Files as part of some venue advertisement,
10:43
Speaker 1: and you could factually claim that Ringo Star is in
10:45
Speaker 1: the Epstein Files. It doesn't mean shit, is my point. However,
10:49
Speaker 1: some of these names, some of these mentions do in
10:52
Speaker 1: fact may In fact, I should say, mean, mean shit,
10:56
Speaker 1: mean some things. Okay, Justice dot Gov slash Epstein slash search.
11:01
Speaker 1: That's where you can go. Anyone can go. That's where
11:04
Speaker 1: I went. Anyone can search the Epstein files. It's pretty fascinating. Now.
11:08
Speaker 1: Not only did I search for the rock stars and
11:11
Speaker 1: the musicians on the actual list that the Department of
11:14
Speaker 1: Justice released over the past weekend, but I also did
11:17
Speaker 1: keyword searches. I searched for a musician. I searched for
11:20
Speaker 1: rock star. To my knowledge, the musicians we're going to
11:24
Speaker 1: discuss here are the prominent musicians, the household names, if
11:28
Speaker 1: you will, that are mentioned in the files. And there's
11:30
Speaker 1: a ton of musicians also in some of these emails
11:34
Speaker 1: with Epstein that who's likely never heard of. It's kind
11:37
Speaker 1: of sad, actually, they're hitting him up for cash, trying
11:42
Speaker 1: to get on his radar, kissing his ass some. He
11:45
Speaker 1: responds to some. He not only offers to help, but
11:49
Speaker 1: he does indeed help, offers to pay this one woman
11:53
Speaker 1: I'm presuming her name is redacted. She signs the email
11:56
Speaker 1: with kisses, so I'm assuming it's a woman musician who
12:00
Speaker 1: in some sort of competition, and Epstein offers to pay
12:04
Speaker 1: her cash ten grand in cash if she advances. She's
12:08
Speaker 1: clearly interested in that. There's another musician, a guy who's
12:11
Speaker 1: of some note, who I've never heard of before, piano player.
12:14
Speaker 1: I'm not going to mention his name because I don't
12:17
Speaker 1: want to impeu in the guy in any way. And anyways,
12:20
Speaker 1: Epstein is quite taken with his playing, and he emails
12:24
Speaker 1: the president of Bard University on behalf of this musician
12:28
Speaker 1: to get him on the radar for who knows what.
12:31
Speaker 1: But this is what Epstein. This is what Epstein did.
12:34
Speaker 1: He connected people, He made that his business. He was
12:38
Speaker 1: a sex trafficker, yes, and I know there's some debate
12:41
Speaker 1: over over that, over whether or not he was actually
12:45
Speaker 1: trafficking women, depending on what the actual definition of sex
12:49
Speaker 1: trafficking is. I don't give a fuck what the official
12:52
Speaker 1: definition of sex trafficking is. It's very clear from these
12:57
Speaker 1: files that Jeffrey Epstein was trafficking women. He's also trafficking
13:02
Speaker 1: starfuckers and celebrities. There's a great article I read in
13:07
Speaker 1: Fortune magazine over the weekend, and it talks it's They
13:10
Speaker 1: quote one of the people who worked for Epstein at
13:12
Speaker 1: his home in New York. I believe and they talk
13:15
Speaker 1: about these events that he would hold where he basically
13:19
Speaker 1: had the same the same path, the same group of
13:22
Speaker 1: people types of people for these, you know, afternoon meetings
13:28
Speaker 1: or morning meetings, and it would be Epstein. It would
13:32
Speaker 1: be somebody famous from the world of arts and culture,
13:35
Speaker 1: you know, like a Robert de Niro or a I'm
13:39
Speaker 1: not saying Robert de Niro specifically, but an actor and actress,
13:43
Speaker 1: et cetera, or a musician in some cases, you know,
13:47
Speaker 1: someone like you'd walk in the room and be like,
13:48
Speaker 1: oh shit, that guy. Damn, I'm having coffee with this guy.
13:51
Speaker 1: All right, I didn't know that. And then there'd be
13:55
Speaker 1: somebody like a tech a tech titan of industry, like
13:58
Speaker 1: a Bill Gates type, you know, somebody big like or
14:01
Speaker 1: you know even like like some big kind of influencer
14:03
Speaker 1: in sort of the health space or the tech space,
14:06
Speaker 1: like a Peter or Tea, something like that. And then
14:09
Speaker 1: there'd be a beautiful woman, young woman typically of age,
14:15
Speaker 1: but still young, nineteen ish, and she would be laser
14:19
Speaker 1: focused on the final person at the meeting, who would
14:22
Speaker 1: be the mark, the person that Epstein was trying to
14:28
Speaker 1: bring into his circle for whatever reason. Usually somebody of note, okay,
14:33
Speaker 1: and that the woman would, you know, have her laser
14:37
Speaker 1: focus on this person. And you know, lots of things
14:40
Speaker 1: happened sometimes. I was actually reading an article about this
14:43
Speaker 1: sort of like honey trap structure that Epstein had and
14:48
Speaker 1: the person sniffed it out and didn't fall for it.
14:51
Speaker 1: But this happened a lot. You can read about it
14:53
Speaker 1: in the files. You read a lot in the files.
14:56
Speaker 1: Just go to like I said, Justice Stuckov slash Epstein
14:59
Speaker 1: slash search. But again, Epstein my point. Epstein unlike anyone
15:05
Speaker 1: I've ever come across in any of my research, just
15:09
Speaker 1: a major networker and starfucker who can literally considered himself
15:16
Speaker 1: a master of the universe. And he was connected to
15:19
Speaker 1: people at the highest highest levels. Okay, so you know
15:26
Speaker 1: for us, you know, Mick Jagger is like the highest level,
15:30
Speaker 1: but I'm talking about like Sultan's I'm talking about Bill Gates, etc.
15:36
Speaker 1: That level huge elon musk Okay. And again, just because
15:42
Speaker 1: the name is in here, just because these people may
15:45
Speaker 1: have been in contact with this guy, you gotta look
15:48
Speaker 1: at the context. And that's what we're gonna do. So again,
15:51
Speaker 1: there are a ton of musicians in these files, and
15:54
Speaker 1: we're gonna go through just the bigger names, Okay, Mick Jagger,
15:57
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson, Kark Kobe, and Bruce Springsteen. I even searched
16:01
Speaker 1: Chester Bennington all right, and Chris Cornell. All right. We're
16:04
Speaker 1: gonna discuss each mention of every prominent musician in the
16:08
Speaker 1: Epstein Files. We come back right after this. All right, guys,
16:31
Speaker 1: given how much information there is here in this topic
16:33
Speaker 1: for this bonus episode, I usually do right here at
16:37
Speaker 1: the top of the sea block. I usually do your
16:38
Speaker 1: voicemails and text and emails. We're gonna do that later.
16:40
Speaker 1: We're gonna do that in the D block. Okay, I'm
16:42
Speaker 1: gonna dive back in here to mister Epstein and his
16:46
Speaker 1: musical friends. First of all, a lot of you, I assume,
16:50
Speaker 1: are going to be disappointed to know that neither Chester
16:52
Speaker 1: Bennington or Chris Cornell are in the Epstein files in
16:55
Speaker 1: any way. Okay, So conspiracy theorists make what you will
16:58
Speaker 1: out of that, not one mention the artists. All right'm
17:01
Speaker 1: gonna blast through these names, these mentions, and I'm gonna
17:05
Speaker 1: give you some context. Now, keep in mind the year
17:08
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight. That's important because everything that Jeffrey
17:11
Speaker 1: Epstein does after two thousand and eight. He's doing as
17:15
Speaker 1: a known convicted sex offender, one who was sentenced and
17:20
Speaker 1: again who did time, albeit cushy time, very cushy time,
17:25
Speaker 1: for procuring child prostitution. Everyone who came in contact with
17:31
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein after two thousand and eight, and everybody he
17:35
Speaker 1: contacted after two thousand and eight presumably knew this information.
17:39
Speaker 1: I mean, how could they not?
17:41
Speaker 2: All?
17:41
Speaker 1: Right? Now, First of all, Elton John, Elton John is
17:46
Speaker 1: mentioned in the files, and the context, it appears to me,
17:51
Speaker 1: is that Jeffrey Epstein is trying to scam his way
17:54
Speaker 1: into Elton's twenty fourteen Academy Awards viewing party. The email
17:58
Speaker 1: exchange flows from from a couple different women who appear
18:02
Speaker 1: to be publicists working on Epstein's behalf, one of whom
18:05
Speaker 1: is Peggy Siegel, a p RT juggernaut Okay. In these emails,
18:10
Speaker 1: she claims to be emailing David Furnish directly, Elton's husband,
18:14
Speaker 1: and it appears that Epstein got his wish he was
18:19
Speaker 1: given passes to the event because the exchange. The email
18:22
Speaker 1: exchange goes on to talk about dress code for the
18:23
Speaker 1: event and all types of stuff. So that's interesting. Twenty fourteen.
18:29
Speaker 1: The one thing that makes very clear here Jeffrey Epstein
18:33
Speaker 1: in no way suffered socially from his conviction in two
18:37
Speaker 1: thousand and eight. I mean, things were just chugging along
18:41
Speaker 1: for this guy on the social circuit after he was
18:43
Speaker 1: a known convicted sex offender. Mind blowing. Speaking of the
18:48
Speaker 1: publicist Peggy Segel, there are numerous emails from Siegel to
18:53
Speaker 1: Epstein while Epstein is locked up. Now these emails are
18:57
Speaker 1: Siegel keeping her client in formed on the social happenings
19:02
Speaker 1: in their circle. It is name drop a palooza, okay,
19:07
Speaker 1: as you would expect from a publicist, and it's written
19:10
Speaker 1: in a way that makes it obvious that Epstein was
19:12
Speaker 1: a Grade A starfucker of the highest order. Here's an
19:17
Speaker 1: email from Siegel to Epstein talking about taking in Jack
19:21
Speaker 1: White's new movie It might get Loud, among other things.
19:25
Speaker 1: And again this is this is after two thousand and eight.
19:27
Speaker 1: This is two thousand and nine. This is not the
19:30
Speaker 1: two thousand, post twenty nineteen Epstein arrest incarceration where he's

Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen? And Oprah is coming to What a group
21:37
Speaker 1: there on the Med for three weeks, almost as chic
21:39
Speaker 1: as a week on Lady Joy with Denise rich not complaining,
21:43
Speaker 1: just making you smile xo xo peg. That is nauseating, nauseating, nauseating.
21:50
Speaker 1: This fucking guy in jail or lock up, white collar,
21:56
Speaker 1: lock up, whatever he was wherever he was doing his time.
22:00
Speaker 1: I think he even got to go to his office
22:01
Speaker 1: during business hours. That first time down in Palm Beach
22:04
Speaker 1: when he was quote unquote incarcerated anyhow, receiving updates from
22:08
Speaker 1: his publicist on all the starfucking that he's missing. I
22:12
Speaker 1: just like I read that. I found that humorous because
22:15
Speaker 1: I just liked that she mentions Jack White. All Right, Okay,
22:21
Speaker 1: moving on, Elvis Costello is in the files. And again,
22:25
Speaker 1: if you see anything that pops up and says Elvis
22:27
Speaker 1: Costello's in the Epstein files, do not fear. There's a bio.
22:31
Speaker 1: There's a biography, and pretty extensive one. It's like six
22:34
Speaker 1: pages from what appears to be twenty eleven, and there's
22:36
Speaker 1: no other context that I can find. Just literally just
22:39
Speaker 1: a six page PDF biography of Elvis Costello in the
22:44
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein files. Now onto a little bit more meat.
22:48
Speaker 1: Mick Jagger, and this is where it gets problematic. Mick
22:51
Speaker 1: Jagger is in the files. Okay. There's a photo of
22:55
Speaker 1: him at a Clinton Foundation dinner, seated next to both
22:59
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein and Glenn Maxwell at different times, and there's
23:03
Speaker 1: no indication of the year from these photos. All right,
23:09
Speaker 1: And the best I can tell is that the event
23:12
Speaker 1: was held after Epstein was publicly known to be a
23:17
Speaker 1: petos so after two thousand and eight. However, I can't
23:20
Speaker 1: confirm that. It's just I can't that there's nowhere in
23:24
Speaker 1: the files, there's nothing on the internet that I've seen.
23:27
Speaker 1: But these photos look okay, they're digital photos. They look
23:32
Speaker 1: like they're after two thousand and eight. But again I
23:34
Speaker 1: cannot be certain, so I'm not going to say that.
23:37
Speaker 1: And also for the context here, a little more context
23:40
Speaker 1: than you're going to get if you just see a
23:42
Speaker 1: New York Post article or whatever that says, like, you know,
23:45
Speaker 1: Mick Jagger dining with Jeffrey Epstein, you know what I mean?
23:50
Speaker 1: Like this this thing, these pictures, Okay, again, this is
23:55
Speaker 1: a Clinton event it and it appears to be such.
24:00
Speaker 1: Doesn't appear to be an Epstein event again, and that matters.
24:04
Speaker 1: It's hard for me. I know that I'm walking a
24:08
Speaker 1: fine line here, but it's hard for me from this
24:10
Speaker 1: information to damn Mick Jagger here. Now, we've all been
24:13
Speaker 1: at parties where the X CON shows up. Makes it weird,
24:16
Speaker 1: haven't we? I have anyway to be clear, just regarding
24:20
Speaker 1: Mick Jagger, and we'll talk a little bit more about this,
24:21
Speaker 1: But regarding mc Jaggers, there's no indication of any criminal
24:24
Speaker 1: wrongdoing or awareness of Epstein's crimes by Jagger in the
24:27
Speaker 1: released materials from the Epstein files at all. None, okay.
24:32
Speaker 1: And I just want to say this, having been around
24:36
Speaker 1: famous rock stars in my life, even mid level famous
24:41
Speaker 1: rock stars or the biggest of the big doesn't matter.
24:46
Speaker 1: I can just tell you from my experience, Jeffrey Epstein
24:50
Speaker 1: seems like the exact type of dude that would repel
24:54
Speaker 1: rock stars. I'm talking about rock stars who are you know,
24:57
Speaker 1: have fuck you money and like McK jagger or Elton
25:00
Speaker 1: John or whomever, and it just doesn't matter, like they
25:04
Speaker 1: stand again nothing, okay. These types of guys, first of all,
25:07
Speaker 1: fucking dork, total nerd. Right, what's Mick Jagger going to
25:10
Speaker 1: talk to Jeffrey Epstein about? Also, given Jeffrey Epstein's crimes,
25:17
Speaker 1: even if Mick Jagger were inclined to be into that
25:22
Speaker 1: sort of thing, he doesn't need Jeffrey Epstein. I guess
25:26
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is Mick Jagger can have his own
25:28
Speaker 1: sex trafficking ring should he want one, and I don't
25:31
Speaker 1: believe he does or did at all in any way.
25:34
Speaker 1: And when you look at these photos Mick is not pleased.
25:39
Speaker 1: He's not sitting there all chummy, chummy. Okay, he's sitting
25:43
Speaker 1: next to Bill Clinton, He's sitting next to Jeffrey Epstein.
25:46
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein looks pleased to punch. He is psyched. He
25:50
Speaker 1: is starfucker pumped. Okay, So again this is problematic, but
25:56
Speaker 1: it's not completely damning, and I'm not going there. You
25:58
Speaker 1: might say I'm being an apology for Mick Jagger, and
26:00
Speaker 1: maybe i am, but I'm just telling you what my
26:02
Speaker 1: gut tells me. Same goes from Michael Jackson and Diana Ross,
26:05
Speaker 1: both pictured on Epstein's plane. However, for context, again the
26:11
Speaker 1: photos here, and I'm a little more certain about this,
26:13
Speaker 1: they appear to be taken before what we knew about
26:16
Speaker 1: Epstein was made public before two thousand and eight. But
26:19
Speaker 1: again I can't confirm that. I'm just telling you what
26:21
Speaker 1: it appears to be to me. Okay, so it's hard
26:23
Speaker 1: for me to believe that Epstein's antics would be something
26:27
Speaker 1: that Michael Jackson would be interested in any way, Okay,
26:30
Speaker 1: for reasons that to me you're obvious. But you know,
26:35
Speaker 1: like a lot of my thoughts here, this is probably
26:37
Speaker 1: best explored in a Michael Jackson episode. I will say, however,
26:42
Speaker 1: there is information in the files indicating that Michael Jackson
26:45
Speaker 1: was expressly not interested in Epstein's young girls. Okay, there's
26:50
Speaker 1: a file where Epstein where a quote unquote victim, and
26:55
Speaker 1: I say quote unquote victim because I can't tell from
26:58
Speaker 1: the files what is legally a victim or defined as
27:05
Speaker 1: a victim, and what is not. Okay, but I'll just
27:08
Speaker 1: say there's a woman in the files in documentation FBI
27:15
Speaker 1: documentation who says that she was at Epstein's Palm Beach home.
27:23
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson was there. Epstein instructs her, and again it's
27:28
Speaker 1: important to note that this woman is underage. I should
27:31
Speaker 1: have mentioned that Epstein instructs her to give Michael Jackson
27:35
Speaker 1: a massage, and she claims that Michael Jackson declined. Okay,
27:41
Speaker 1: take that for what it's worth again, probably though for
27:45
Speaker 1: another episode. There is so much in here, Okay, But
27:49
Speaker 1: you know, I just encourage you all to go to
27:52
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice site yourself and searches information up
27:55
Speaker 1: on your own. If you're interested, you're you're gonna find
27:57
Speaker 1: more than what I found. I mean, I spent probably
27:59
Speaker 1: three hours looking into this morning, and I'm giving you
28:02
Speaker 1: the best of what I came up with here in
28:04
Speaker 1: the structure of the show. But it's worth viewing these
28:07
Speaker 1: primary source documents to see exactly how music and famous
28:10
Speaker 1: musicians played into Epstein's life. And actually, as I mentioned,
28:14
Speaker 1: non famous musicians as well, kissing his ass, looking for
28:16
Speaker 1: bread to support their careers and just reading other people's
28:19
Speaker 1: emails is kind of creepy, especially the emails of a
28:21
Speaker 1: dead pedo master of the universe like Jeffrey Epstein, So
28:24
Speaker 1: I encourage you to check it out yourself. Now, it
28:27
Speaker 1: appears that Jeffrey Epstein found Courtney Love to be interesting.
28:30
Speaker 1: He followed her on Twitter. She's fascinating. Regardless what you
28:33
Speaker 1: think of Courtney Love, she's a good follow She's interesting.
28:36
Speaker 1: The mentions of Courtney that's about as far as they go.
28:40
Speaker 1: They're pretty innocuous. Same goes for Kurt Cobain, same goes
28:42
Speaker 1: for Janis Joplin, same goes for Elvis Presley. These mentions
28:46
Speaker 1: are innocuous. They're not really worth mentioning here except to
28:50
Speaker 1: say that there's nothing in the context that indicates anything
28:53
Speaker 1: resembling a crime regarding these folks. Bono is mentioned as well,
28:57
Speaker 1: because I think you know, rich globally interested masters the
29:00
Speaker 1: universe like Jeffrey Epstein are contractually obligated to mention Bono
29:03
Speaker 1: at least twice a month, otherwise they're going to lose
29:05
Speaker 1: their culture credit. But like Courtney and Kurt, as it
29:09
Speaker 1: pertains to Bono, there's no there there. But then there's
29:14
Speaker 1: jay Z. There's a fascinating document, an actual FBI document,
29:19
Speaker 1: a quote unquote crisis in Take document from twenty nineteen
29:24
Speaker 1: that reports on a victim's alleged experience with Jay Z
29:30
Speaker 1: and Jeffrey Epstein. And we're going to talk about that
29:32
Speaker 1: in the exclusive section of this after party. It's too
29:36
Speaker 1: much to get into right now. This episode will be
29:38
Speaker 1: four hours long if we if I start talking about this,
29:42
Speaker 1: So I'm going to talk about that with Zeth. We're
29:43
Speaker 1: going to go through it. We're going to tell you
29:45
Speaker 1: what's in this file regarding jay Z. We're going to
29:48
Speaker 1: give you the context, and we're going to give you
29:50

31:50
Speaker 3: Up your boy Ish? Just checking in Hope fall as well.
31:56
Speaker 3: Hope you're getting over this holiday season. Listen to the
32:00
Speaker 3: Bonus episode recently and you were mentioning what you think
32:06
Speaker 3: Cobain would have thought about the food Fighters and what
32:10
Speaker 3: he'd be into, what he'd be doing, and just a
32:14
Speaker 3: quick thought. I agree with you. I think he would
32:16
Speaker 3: hate food Fighters because most people do, at least I do.
32:21
Speaker 3: But I think he'd be into Turnstile.
32:24
Speaker 2: And the way these guys are just kicking.
32:26
Speaker 3: Ass and you know recently won a Grammy.
32:29
Speaker 2: But also their roots in punk in hardcore. Is that
32:33
Speaker 2: just my opinion? I don't know.
32:35
Speaker 3: Hope Ball as well, Disco.
32:37
Speaker 1: Disco Ish, I am recovering from the holidays. Thanks man,
32:40
Speaker 1: I hope you are as well. Appreciate the call. Yeah,
32:44
Speaker 1: I tend to think the same exact way. Actually, I
32:46
Speaker 1: get nothing, no qualms about what you're saying here. I
32:49
Speaker 1: never thought of what Kobe would take a turnstyle, but yeah,
32:51
Speaker 1: I think he would absolutely appreciate the sort of DIY
32:55
Speaker 1: hardcore punk roots food fighters. As much as I love
33:00
Speaker 1: some of their music, they're a tough hang in a
33:02
Speaker 1: lot of ways. And again, yeah, I kind of agree
33:05
Speaker 1: with your assessment, although I can't put it as well
33:07
Speaker 1: as you did. Appreciate the comment. I hope you're doing well.
33:11
Speaker 2: Hey, Jake, this is Brian going from the eight oh
33:15
Speaker 2: one for all you acolytes. That's Utah. I only mentioned
33:19
Speaker 2: that because I never heard anybody call them from Utah. Anyways, Hey,
33:23
Speaker 2: I was new listening to your NWA episode and it
33:28
Speaker 2: reminded me of something back in the day in nineteen
33:32
Speaker 2: eighty eight. I was twenty three years old. But because
33:35
Speaker 2: I'm in Utah, to buy the NWA straight out coffee castette,
33:43
Speaker 2: I had to go through the counter and ask for
33:48
Speaker 2: because they kept it behind the counter to protect their
33:51
Speaker 2: kids from that craziness. Anyways, dude, when I first heard
33:57
Speaker 2: that fa set, I was like, holy crap, you guys
34:04
Speaker 2: are pissed, and I was literally, dude, I was worried
34:08
Speaker 2: that there was going to be race warris starting right
34:14
Speaker 2: after that CD came out, because you know, I was
34:17
Speaker 2: in the hard core scene back then and we had
34:19
Speaker 2: you know, racist skins and stuff, and so I knew
34:23
Speaker 2: whale them guys are coming from.
34:24
Speaker 3: And anyways, yeah, Jake, I.
34:27
Speaker 2: Was reminded of that when I was re listening to
34:30
Speaker 2: those episodes, and I appreciate all you do.
34:33
Speaker 1: Have a great day, bro, Brian, thanks for the call.
34:35
Speaker 1: Appreciate it. Yeah, that was That was a weird time
34:39
Speaker 1: when Straight out of Compton came out, for sure, especially
34:42
Speaker 1: if you were in the hardcore scene like we were.
34:44
Speaker 1: And you just reminded me I should probably do an
34:47
Speaker 1: episode on on Nazi skinheads. I can't have never done that.
34:52
Speaker 1: I could do one on the band's Screwdriver, and just
34:55
Speaker 1: because I love I would love to expose the sort
35:02
Speaker 1: of that gross counterculture. You know, it was always sort
35:06
Speaker 1: of like adjacent to the hardcore scene. Those dudes, I
35:09
Speaker 1: gotta admit, they came around in Boston and they just
35:11
Speaker 1: got their asses kicked repeatedly and sort of banished away
35:16
Speaker 1: from the scene. But that era in the eighties, I
35:20
Speaker 1: remember a big Rolling Stone article on the Nazi skinhead thing,
35:24
Speaker 1: and I'm interested in how that grew out of the
35:29
Speaker 1: punk scene in London and how the difference between UK
35:33
Speaker 1: skinheads and American skinheads. So this, this would be an
35:35
Speaker 1: interesting episode to get into. So thanks for your sort
35:39
Speaker 1: of unintentional recommendation there, Brian, appreciate it. That's why we
35:43
Speaker 1: do this, guys get to hear from you, guys. Hear
35:45
Speaker 1: what you're into here, what you're thinking about informs me.
35:49
Speaker 1: It helps me determine what we want to cover going forward.
35:53
Speaker 1: And you know, up until five thirty seconds ago, I
35:56
Speaker 1: should say I wasn't thinking about doing a Screwdriver episode,
35:59
Speaker 1: but I think that could be pretty cool. So give
36:01
Speaker 1: us a calls my point six one seven nine six
36:04
Speaker 1: sixty sixty three eight. All right. A couple weeks ago
36:06
Speaker 1: we asked the question of you guys, you know, what
36:08
Speaker 1: are some of your most interesting best experiences with live
36:12
Speaker 1: music as kids. Let's go to the nine one two
36:15
Speaker 1: and get her response.
36:17
Speaker 4: Hey, Jake Aspen here from nine to one two, and
36:20
Speaker 4: I've got a kid experience for you from a concert
36:24
Speaker 4: that I went to many many years ago. Back in
36:27
Speaker 4: July of nineteen ninety six, I was sixteen years old
36:31
Speaker 4: and went to an ever Clear show at the Ogden
36:34
Speaker 4: Theater in Denver, Colorado. Back then, it was all general
36:38
Speaker 4: admission to my friends, and I basically camped out in
36:40
Speaker 4: the front row for the entire night. At some point
36:44
Speaker 4: in the show, I had one of those teenage girl
36:46
Speaker 4: fantasy moments come to life. Art Alexakis, the lead singer
36:51
Speaker 4: for Everclear Locke's Eyes with the mid song, starts singing
36:55
Speaker 4: directly to me and then motions for me to come
36:59
Speaker 4: backstage after this show. So I'm sixteen, this is peak
37:02
Speaker 4: nineties rock and roll. I'm internally losing my mind. So
37:05
Speaker 4: whenever Clear finished their set, Art motioned for me to
37:08
Speaker 4: come back, but security wouldn't let me through, So even
37:11
Speaker 4: though the whole band was yelling at them to let
37:13
Speaker 4: me pass, I was stuck.
37:14
Speaker 2: So we regrouped.
37:15
Speaker 4: Outside on the side of the Ogden where there's a
37:18
Speaker 4: window two or three stories up that opens up into
37:21
Speaker 4: the green room. Art is literally hanging out of the
37:24
Speaker 4: window while this crowd of teenagers attempts to hoist me
37:28
Speaker 4: up to him. So we tried and tried for like
37:31
Speaker 4: an hour, but eventually reality and gravity one and all
37:35
Speaker 4: of us gave up and went home. I was only sixteen,
37:38
Speaker 4: Art was a full grown man, but hey, it was
37:40
Speaker 4: rock and roll in the nineties. Anyhow, I love your podcast.
37:44
Speaker 4: I've been listening for years, and I especially loved the
37:47
Speaker 4: episodes on Jane's Addiction that you did recently. Thank you
37:50
Speaker 4: so much, Jake rock and ROLLA hi.
37:53

44:31
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit here and complain about the New
44:33
Speaker 1: England Patriots losing the Super Bowl. We've been to twelve
44:36
Speaker 1: Super Bowls, We've lost six. We've won six. We're five
44:39
Speaker 1: hundred in the Super Bowl. Do I wish we had
44:42
Speaker 1: a better winning percentage? Of course I do. Am I
44:44
Speaker 1: upset that we've been to twelve Super Bowls? No, I'm not, duh,
44:48
Speaker 1: that doesn't make any sense. What I am upset about
44:50
Speaker 1: is the Boston Red Sox and their inability to spend money.
44:53
Speaker 1: The Boston Red Sox ownership treating us like we're a
44:57
Speaker 1: mid market fan base, a second T team, spending money
45:02
Speaker 1: like the No Offense but the Pittsburgh Pirates. What are
45:05
Speaker 1: we doing? I mean, come on, this is insane. Letting
45:09
Speaker 1: Bregman walk and not going after a suitable replacement. The
45:14
Speaker 1: Red Sox ownership is, I don't know, allergic to spending
45:17
Speaker 1: money on big name talent. Have you seen what the
45:19
Speaker 1: Dodgers are doing, what the Yankees will continue to do.
45:22
Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. Where the Boston Red Sox, one of the
45:25
Speaker 1: most storied baseball franchises in history, the greatest ballpark in
45:29
Speaker 1: the MLB. I cannot, for the life of me, understand
45:32
Speaker 1: what's going on. It's time. I hate to say this.
45:35
Speaker 1: They've done so much good for the city, for the
45:37
Speaker 1: fan base, but it's over. This run of ownership is over.
45:40
Speaker 1: Sell the team, John Henry. Sell the team to an
45:44
Speaker 1: owner that wants to win, that cares, okay, that wants
45:48
Speaker 1: to do right by the fan base and the players.
45:52
Speaker 1: Because what you're doing is not working. I'll help you
45:54
Speaker 1: find buyers. Okay, I know some folks. You know. We'll
45:57
Speaker 1: take up a collection because this ain't working. I'm more
45:59
Speaker 1: excited about my eight year old's coach pitch league than
46:03
Speaker 1: I am the start of the MLB season. Might be
46:06
Speaker 1: because I'm coaching and I want to know already. Okay,
46:09
Speaker 1: what do you think of the apples? But I want
46:11
Speaker 1: to be excited about the baseball season, and it's hard
46:13
Speaker 1: to do when your team just doesn't doesn't really care.
46:18
Speaker 1: They don't care. Ownership doesn't care. They pretend they care,
46:22
Speaker 1: but they don't care. They don't care. Trust me, they
46:25
Speaker 1: don't care. That was the sports transponsor by five Hour
