  Speaker 1: Martimone on sevent TENR. Well it's Tuesday, remember, not Monday.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Lutch to get to this hour. The latest on the
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Epstein stuff. Well, they'll be testimony, they'll be hearings coming up.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: I think Wexler testifies today. He was probably the first
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: really close big business friend of Jeffrey Epstein. The Clinton's
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: I think Hillary is the twenty sixth. So we got
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: a ways to go before Hillary testifies and Bill testifies. Now,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: remember Republicans they're not great at hearings. They don't do it.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Democrats know how to do hearings. They just tear into
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: you viciously. They just batter and beat and pound the witnesses.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Republicans are too too gentle. They don't I mean, Democrats
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: don't get anything done in the hearings. It just makes
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: for great TV coverage. But now apparently Hillary is going
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: to testify because she was asked about it this Munich conference,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: and I get this. Hillary actually said she was asked
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: about her relationship with Epstein. Oh, the best one was
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Gallaine Maxwell. She said, I don't recall ever meeting her.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: She said about Gallaine Maxwell, I don't recall ever meeting her. Well,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: I assume you were at your daughter's wedding, Chelsea Clinton's wedding.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: Gallaine Maxwell was there at the wedding. Somehow she got
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: invited to the wedding. So this is gonna be the problem.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: They'll produce a million pictures of her in Epstein. Her
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: and Gallaine Maxwell. Now, Bill Clinton is a good double talker.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Hillary is not. Hillary's just a terrible talker. But Bill,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: you get him from that committee, well, you know he'll
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: as far as that goes. You know, he may have
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: talk those guys. Now, some people have gone gone down
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: on this Epstein thing. The Pritzker family, you know JB. Pritzker,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: the big fat Jackie Gleason, governor of Illinois. That's actually
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: the Pritzker family. They're very big in the big business family.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: They were partners with Donald Trump at the very beginning
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: of Trump's career. One of the first major projects of
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Trump was rebuilding the hotel next to Grand Central, the
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: old Commodore. He tore it down and he built the
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Grand Hyatt. That was the thing that put him on
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: the map. That project. His partners in that were the Pritzkers,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: and I guess it didn't end well. So that might
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: be why all the feud between the Pritzker all the
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Pritzkers and Trump. But JB. Prisker's brother is Tom Pritzker,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: and he's the guy that was Trump's partner. He's the
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: guy that ran the Hyatt chain. He was the chairman
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: of Hyatt, the hotel chain, and he's all over the
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Epstein files, very close to Epstein, all kinds of chatter
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: between him and Epstein, all kinds of dirty talk with
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: him and Epstein and Gallaine Maxwell. Well, he announced his
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: resignation yesterday as the chairman of Hyatt. He put out
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: a statement saying that good stewardship also means protecting Hyatt,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: particularly in the context of my association with Jeffrey Epstein
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: and Gallaine Maxwell, which I deeply regret. I exercised terrible
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: judgment in maintaining contact with them, and there is no
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: excuse for failing to distance myself. Sooner Pritzker stepped down.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: That's pretty interesting.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: The other big case is Casey Wasserman. Now, for a
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: million years, the man who ran Hollywood was Lou Wasserman.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: He was the chairman of MCA Universal. But he was
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the guy. Books have been written about him being the
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: guy that ran Hollywood. He was the power broker of
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: all power brokers in Hollywood, Lou Wasserman for many years.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Very dignified, distinguished guy. So this Casey Washerman is his grandson.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: And his grandson put together his own talent agency and
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: it became a very very big agency that four thousand employees.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Casey Washerman built the Washerman Agency into one of the
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Hollywood's biggest talent ags, big in sports marketing, talent, talent management.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: It's huge again, four thousand employees. Well, he's all tangled
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: up with Epstein, and he's nominally tangled up with Epstein
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: and Glaine. Apparently he had quite a romantic fling with
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Glaine and was writing sexual things back and forth. Now,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: why do these people put this in writing? If you're
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: going to do this stuff, why do you put it
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: in writing? And emails and text it's all there. But anyway,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: he's flirting and flirting with it. I don't want to
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: read them to you, but her im and Gallaine, I
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: can't wait to get back to New York for that massage.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: And she's talking about which body parts excite a man most,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: and it's quite disgusting. But he's married you're not supposed
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: to be doing this when you're married, and it's very embarrassing.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: So it comes out that he's not only doing all
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: kinds of stuff with Gallay, he's very very tangled up
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: with Epstein, very tangled up with him. So it's a
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: big talent agency and a lot of the clients were
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: leaving the agency. Chapel Rone and other big major artists
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: were leaving saying this doesn't represent their values, doesn't support
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: safety and dignity. So they're all leaving the agency. And
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: he's such a big guy in LA they made him
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: the chairman of the Olympic Committee. The Mayor of LA
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: has come out and asked him to step down off
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the committee. So he had to quit his own talent agency. Yeah,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: he's actually putting it up for sale over the Epstein flap.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: He's going to sell the agency. He can no longer
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: be had a lot of big acts in this agency
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: that are all speaking out against him, including Beach Bunny,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Chelsea Cutler. That's a long list. It goes on and on.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: All these big artists, Sidney Sweeney and the Stone all
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: leaving him. So he will sell the agency and that's
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the end of it. You know, you know, there were
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of guys. If you read through these Epstein files,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: there were a lot of people that were very involved
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: with Epstein. A lot of college presidents, a lot of academics,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: a lot of business leaders. But they were involved with
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: him for a lot of business purposes. He was helping
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: them with business, with money within the introducing them to people,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: setting up to so but what do you do if
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: you find out the guy's likes underage girls and he's
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: a convicted peder You're supposed to stay the hell away
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: from him. Now, there's a guy years ago, this is
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: about twenty five years ago. There's a guy in New
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: York who was a major figure in the business world
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: and in publishing. He was a big, big chairman of
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say who he was, but he
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: was a major, major, major player. And he was the
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: most wholesome guy I ever met. He was so dignified
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: and classy and so old fashioned wholesome. I used to
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: play golf with this guy with Donald Trump. We used
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: to play with him and sometimes with Bill Fugazy used
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: to play with him, and he was when he would
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: hit a bad shot that would go sideways, you know,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: every guy curses and screams. He would hit the ball
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: would go side. With the worst shot, he would say,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: oh gosh, darn it, and everybody would yell and can't
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: you curse like a normal you could. He couldn't even curse.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: That's how wholesome. This was the most wholesome guy ever.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: And then one day we pick up the paper to
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: read he's just been arrested for child porn. You wouldn't believe.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: This guy was like a sixty five year old, most
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: dignified guy in the world. This guy was on the
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: board of the opera, He was on the board of
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: the symphony, the museum. Child porn. They found it all
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: over his computer, downloading it, having it, and apparently he
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: then got some special software to erase his other computers.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: So he was arrested. He was convicted. He had some
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: great lawyers there. He somehow only got a year or
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: two in prison. But nobody talked to him again. I
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: don't know what happened to this guy. Nobody ever saw
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: him again, talk to him again. But it can happen
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: and you never suspect it sometimes. But Epstein was different. Epstein,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I mean, the first time I ever met him he
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: just he always dressed up, you know, like he was
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: the Duke of Windsor. But then he'd open his mouth. Hey,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: how you you know he had that voice like that,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: and he talked like that and sounded terrible. He was
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: a sleazy guy, just an oily, creepy, sleezy guy underneath.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: So but you wouldn't have thought he was interested in
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: underage women. You would have just thought he was just
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: a sleazy guy. But hey, the other person's gonna have
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: a problem with these Epstein files is Steve Bannon. I
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: knew Bannon knew him, but apparently you're started reading this
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: stuff and it was very, very very close to him.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: And not only did Epstein have nothing to do with Trump,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Epstein hated Trump. Trump had known Epstein in his very
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: very early days, when Epstein first made some money started
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: to hang out at Mar a Lago, Trump knew him.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Then Epstein made inappropriate advances to an underage girl at
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Mar Alago. Trump threw him out of the club, never
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: spoke to him again. This is a million years ago,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: but Bannon stuck with Epstein, and Epstein was very bitter
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: about Trump getting rid of him. So if you read
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: all this stuff, Epstein were all just bad mouthing Trump
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: like crazy. They're all talking about even during the first term,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: twenty fifth Amendment, he's mentally incapacitated, removing him from office.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: And if I'm reading this, I'm sure Trump is reading this.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: But Bannon really ugly stuff about Trump with Epstein, and
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: then it looked like Bannon was trying to help Epstein
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: clean up his image. Bannon considered himself expert crisis management guy,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: an expert at media and how to straighten it out.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: So he's constantly writing Epstein about how they'll clean up
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: his image, get rid of that pedophile thing, clean that up,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: turn his whole image around. And Bannon was also doing
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: a documentary. You can see a lot of this on YouTube,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: where he would interview Epstein for hours, so you can
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: watch Epstein talk for hours and this stuff and even
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: till right up until the end. In fact, they're planning
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: to do some more filming of this documentary. In July
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: of twenty nineteen, on a Friday, they're emailing about we'll
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: do it over the weekend. Apparently we're gonna do something Saturday,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: because Epstein was coming back to New York that Saturday.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: It was fourth of July weekend, and as they're writing
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: about doing this, the FED showed up at the runway
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: when he got off his plane and arrested him. As
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: he's being taken away, Epstein is actually texting him, canceled,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: everything's canceled, Everything's canceled, and then he would He was
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: arrested that day, fourth of July weekend, twenty nineteen. So hey,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert furious, fuming, So they got this new thing
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: at CBS. Now it's going through all the networks. The
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: FCC Commissioner has said, you got to get back to
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: that equal time thing when it comes to candidates and campaigns.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: There was always the way in broadcasting in an election,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: if you were going to have a candidate on, you
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: had to offer the other side equal time. So if
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: President Trump comes in this show, you got to offer
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Kamala Harrison. And if they don't want to come on,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: that's fine, but you have to offer it at least.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: And they started to go back to that had been
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: totally forgotten about. And as all the networks went totally corrupt,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: total partisans slanted, so the view got sited. The other day,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: they had a candidate, a big Democratic candidate for a
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: congressional seat on, but they didn't give the other side
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: a chance to come on. So they got cited for that.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: So CBS is getting in line get nervous. Apparently Colbert
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: was going to have this guy on who's running for
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Senate in Texas. They were going to try to push
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: this guy. They wanted him to get elected to the Senate.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: He's the Democrat, the left wing Democrat running for Senate,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: so they had him on to push his candidacy. Well,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: CBS News told the Colbert people they're not going to
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: air it. You got to have the other side on.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: You got to have both sides on, and Colbert's staff
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: went crazy. Stephen Colbert is going nuts. Now. Colbert also
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: has a YouTube channel. They told him he could run
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: it on his YouTube channel if he wants, but it's
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: not going to go on the network. It's not going
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: to be seen on the air. So the Colbert people
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: are fuming. Now, if you think about it, it's only fair.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: It's really only fair. Remember during the election, I had
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Curtis on a lot. He was running for mayor, and
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: I like Curtis. I thought he'd be the best mayor,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: So we kept having him on. But if we had
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: gotten a call from Mom Donnie saying I want to
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: come on, I want to Equal Time would have been
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: happy to get give it to him. The only it's
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: the fair thing to do. If Cuomo had called, you're
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: having him, mind, you got to have me on. Okay,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: you can come on any normal broadcaster, any legitimate broadcaster.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: It's the right thing to do. It would do it.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: It's the fair thing to do. But this is Colbert,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: who is the most partisan, awful, biased, corrupt show in
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: the world. They only wanted to have the Democrat, not
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: the Republican. So he's all up in arms. Now. There's
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: nothing much you can do. He's already been fired. Final
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: show is in May, which is March April, so he's
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: got like two and a half three months left. If
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: he quit and left early, I'm sure they'd be thrilled, actually,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: but he's going crazy over this. Hey, do you know
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: about Barack Obama and the aliens? I've noticed when somebody's
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: with an ex president in the United States who was president.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I've seen this with Bill Clinton and others. They love
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: to ask him what's the truth about people from other planets?
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: About flying saucers? About aliens from outer space, and Bill
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Clint would always give you a double talk. Well, you know,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: and Obama's on the show the other day and they
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: asked him about this, and he says, there are aliens
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: from outer space. They're not an Area fifty one here, listen.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: They're real, but I haven't seen them. And they're not
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: being kept in fifty one. There's no underground facility unless
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: there's this enormous conspiracy and they hit it from the
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: President of the United States.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Area fifty one is just a military base. I
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: know people have been stationed there, work. There, no no
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: nothing there, no aliens. But that's interesting, although he didn't
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: seem to get too specific. He will take some calls
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: in a minute. Oh, we're hosting this great live event.
