Summary
In this episode we will finally kick off our multi-part deep-dive series exposing Epstein, his history, his network, his operation, his connections, his enablers and mentors, and his funding mechanisms. We will deeply examine how Epstein was created and by whom, and how he managed to rise to unimaginable wealth and power against all logic. And that, my friends, is only the very beginning. This is the culmination of over 7 years of research, FOIA requests, digging, and complex (and probably risky) document pulls. Then months of investigating, building AI assistants to feed everything into and bounce everything off of, embarrassingly extensive corkboard analysis, and meticulously putting the pieces together of the most vast and complex case I've ever dug into. By far. Followed by weeks of writing, fact-checking, reexamining, cross-referencing, and finalizing this massive series. All finally coming together in what, I feel, will be the most in-depth and comprehensive investigation into the story of Jeffrey Epstein to date. Each episode will take us further and deeper into the labyrinthine rabbit hole that was Epstein's rise, life, death?, and aftermath, to finally fully examine the story that we were never supposed to know. We will seek to answer all of the most pressing and deeply concerning questions to emerge from within the latest file releases, based on research, context, and exclusive details that have never all been included in one definitive series...until now. To give us the most accurate and clearest look into the rise and fall of the world's most powerful and prolific child sex predator and trafficker. And it all starts here, with Part 1: The Making of a Monster. Dive even deeper into this and every episode; get exclusive content; watch episodes early and alway…
