  Speaker 1: What's up everyone and welcome to another episode of the
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Epstein Chronicles. It seems like every time we turn around,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family has a new
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: allegation being made against him. And this time, it's a
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: stewardess who says that the former prince grabbed her and
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: grinded himself against her. Well that sounds horrifying. Imagine this
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: disgusting bastard putting his hands on you. I'd rather be
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: stuck in the middle of the ocean in a little-ass
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: raft than spend one single minute with Prince Andrew. Never
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: mind being forced to be around him because it's part
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: of your job. And then, of course, Prince Andrew thinks
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: it's a good idea to get handsy with people. Today's
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: article is from Radar Online and the headline. Disgraced Andrew
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Windsor accused of grabbing and grinding himself against air stewardess
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: in latest sleaze allegation aimed at the lewd royal pariah.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: This article was authored by Aaron Tinney. Andrew Windsor is
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: facing claims from a royal biographer about his behavior towards
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: airline staff as controversy continues to rage around the former
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Duke of York, RadarOnline.com can reveal. Well, look, this has
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: been something that's been bubbling for quite some time. And
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: when it comes to Charles... he hasn't been exactly the
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: biggest fan of Prince Andrew throughout the years. And the
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: only thing that was saving Andrew was the fact that
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: he was the Queen's favorite. And due to that fact,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: he was able to navigate these storms that rolled in.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: And when you have the Queen of England telling everybody
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: to leave you alone, and that you're pretty much untouchable, well,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: they listen. The 66-year-old's younger brother of King Charles, 77,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: is still at the center of huge scrutiny following his
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: withdrawal from royal duties after his links to pedophile Jeffrey
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Epstein were laid bare. What do you mean were laid bare?
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: They've been laid bare for all these years. The only
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: difference now is that the palace and the monarchy has
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: to confront it. They can't hide from it anymore. Everybody
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: knows it's real. Everybody knows Prince Andrew was spending time
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: with Epstein and doing God knows what. So instead of
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: trying to ignore it, They just try to obfuscate now.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Pass the buck. Ah, Andrew's not a working royal. We
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: don't have to answer for this. Well, what about when
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: he was a working royal? How come you never answered
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: for that? The latest claim about his alleged life of
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: sleaze have been aired by royal author Andrew Lowney. He
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: recently released an updated paperback edition of his book entitled
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, which
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: contains additional material about former Prince Andrew, who has consistently
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: denied wrongdoing, and remains under investigation over allegations he passed
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Epstein highly sensitive British information while working as a UK
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: trade envoy. And I think that that's pretty much an
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: open and shut case. Like, if they really want to
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: pursue that, I think that they'll be able to find
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: pay dirt. What kind of punishment would come with it?
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know. They would probably look to mitigate it,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: considering it's the king's brother, but I think that there's
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: a logical path from those emails. to an indictment for
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Andrew due to public misconduct. A source told us about
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: the new edition of Lowney's book. The updated edition has
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: reignited discussion about Andrew's conduct and judgment. What makes these
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: claims notable is that they're being presented as part of
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: a broader pattern of behavior alleged by individuals who cross
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: paths with him over many years. And that's the thing.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: It's not just like one person, right? We've had so
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: many people tell us that Prince Andrew is just reprehensible.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, how many people have come out and said
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: that Prince Andrew is just a disgusting person? That he's
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: rude to staff? That he's just somebody that thinks they
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: can do whatever they want to do whenever they want
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: to do it? And when you've never had any repercussions
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: your whole ass life, that's how you're going to think.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Another source said critics argue that stories of this nature
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: have contributed to the perception problems surrounding Andrew. Supporters, however,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: point out that allegations alone are not proof. and that
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: many of the claims remain disputed or untested. Well, that's
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the big problem, isn't it? And if you want to
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: cut these idiots off at the knees, when it comes
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: to narratives, then what you want to do is you
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: want to tell them that that's great, and that's what
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: you want. That you want a full-on investigation, because that's
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: never happened. So how do we know what's what? And
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: when it comes to Prince Andrew, I think that there's
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: enough evidence to at the very least have a large
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: investigation into what he was up to. And if that's
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: done in a fair manner, without them, you know, respecting
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: that he's a prince of the royal blood, then I
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: think that they'll find a way to get an indictment
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: at the very least. Will he get convicted? I don't know.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Is he ever going to have to answer for the
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: allegations that were made against him by Virginia? I don't know.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: But what I do know is, there has never been
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: a real investigation. And look, it's one thing for me
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: to tell you that. It's a whole ass other thing
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: for you to see the emails yourself. For you to
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: hear they didn't talk to Sarah Kellen Vickers. They didn't
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: talk to Les Wexner. They didn't talk to any of
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: these people that were co-conspirators or alleged co-conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: And why is that? You already know. To control the
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: blast radius. That's what this has always been about. Management.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Not about transparency. Certainly not about justice. Lowney has alleged
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: he has collected multiple accounts relating to Andrew's interactions with women.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: He said in a chat to promote his updated book
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: about the Yorks, Andrew greets an air hostess on a plane,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: swings her around, and basically grinds himself into her from behind.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: I've got stories like that with yoga instructors, a whole
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: series of people, often with people around them. He's completely shameless. Like,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: who does that? Like, who grabs their yoga teacher... or
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: some hostess on a plane, and starts touching them. Well,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Uncle Touchy, that's who. The Joe Exotic of the Windsor family. Mister,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: I can do whatever I want to whoever I want,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: whenever I want. And if you don't let me, I'm
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: gonna tell my mom. Lowney's book contains an account involving
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: a British Airways flight to New York in 2010, in
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: which a flight attendant allegedly recalled an unusual exchange after
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: the former prince requested bottled water. Under a section titled
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Strange Behavior, Lowney wrote the stewardess claimed that Andrew complained
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: that the water was too cold. According to the story,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: after being told that the water had been stored in
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: a chiller, he allegedly responded by placing the bottle inside
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: his trousers and remarking, this will warm it up. I mean,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: I guess that's okay and funny if you're in 7th grade.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Probably not the look you're going for if you're the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Prince of England though. The claims are among a series
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: of stories included in the updated biography which examines Andrew's
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: rise within the royal family and his subsequent fall from
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: public favor. Last month, Lowney also reported a member of
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: the former prince's staff described a recent conversation in which
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Andrew was said to have reflected on the controversies that
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: have engulfed him. According to the account, the former royal
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: said he'd been completely misunderstood and described recent events as
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the most distressing experience of my life well here's an
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: idea don't hang out with people like Jeffrey Epstein and
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: don't quote unquote allegedly take part in the abuse you
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: want to talk about the most distressing experience of somebody's
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: life I would say talk to Virginia but unfortunately she's
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: not here anymore so if Prince Andrew or the former
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Prince Andrew thinks I give one single shit about how
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: his quote unquote life has been ruined bro got another
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: thing coming I have zero empathy for people like Andrew.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: The staff member further claimed that Andrew remained hopeful. One
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: day the naked truth will finally let out. Oh yeah,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: why don't you do another interview on BBC? Because, you know,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: that was about the truth, right? You were going to
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: give us the truth then. Yo, Uncle Touchy over here
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: wouldn't know the truth if that shit smacked him across
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: the face with the royal scepter. Andrew has repeatedly denied
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: wrongdoing in relation to allegations made against him and has
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: not been convicted of any criminal offense. Well, yeah, you
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: usually have to have an investigation before that happens. And
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: up until recently, well, that wasn't really occurring, was it?
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Thames Valley Police arrested Andrew at Sandringham in February on
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: his 66th birthday on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: He is still on release under investigation as cops probe
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: allegations he passed on confidential information to his pedophile financier pal,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein, while working as a UK trade envoy. Like,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: why would you pass that information on to anybody? Never
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: mind Jeffrey Epstein. The Thames Valley Force is also reviewing
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: allegations a woman in her 20s was trafficked to the
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: UK by Epstein to have sexual encounter with Andrew Epstein.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: at his former $ 40 million residence, Royal Lodge, which King
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Charles has now booted him out of as part of
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: his punishment for his long-standing friendship with Epstein. Well, is
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: it really punishment for that, or for being outed? Because
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: don't think for a minute Charles didn't know what Epstein
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: was up to with his nonce of a brother. He knew,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: and he ignored it. just like the rest of the
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: royal family that was the strategy that's what they were
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: gonna do ignore it until it goes away and hopefully
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: at some point nobody ever brings it up again but
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: the thing they weren't relying on the thing they didn't
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: count on was virginia and she just wasn't gonna let
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: it go she was not gonna let andrew get away
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: with this bullshit And I said at the time that
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the royal family should have cut bait then. They would
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: have at least had some, you know, tenable ground to
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: stand upon if they would have cut bait back in
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: the day. But they didn't. They kept them around. They
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: kept protecting them. And now they have to deal with
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: the fallout. And while the monarchy sure is equipped to
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: deal with controversy and to deal with issues, this might
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: be one too far, especially without the queen there to
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: right the ship. So I think the problems for Andrew
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: have just begun. Whether that elevates to a level of
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: him going to prison or not, that's yet to be seen.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: But when it comes to criminal jeopardy and criminal liability,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: this is the closest Andrew's ever been to being held accountable.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: But we shouldn't kid ourselves when we're talking about could
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: be held accountable and will be held accountable. Because one
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: thing we've learned when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein and
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: his friends, accountability is in short supply. All the information
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: that goes with this episode can be found in the
• 11:23
