Are the MAGA podcasters right about Epstein? | If You're Listening
YouTube video by ABC News In-depth Are the MAGA podcasters right about Epstein? | If You're Listening

I spent two weeks looking into two key questions about Jeffrey Epstein:
- Can video evidence prove he was not murdered?
- Is there evidence he ever blackmailed anyone?
The results surprised me. youtu.be/6zzWn4_Rrac

The dog autism question makes me think they were accepting “wait, what?” as an “unsure” response.

Honestly the Knights should play Jesse Southwell at halfback for the rest of the year. I’m not even being facetious she would single-handedly double the IQ of the team. #nrlknightspanthers

And Steve we will obviously be keeping our eye on the results from the key swing states of Mevada, Mez Mico, Wiscubjha, Misfrani and Sahe O’Midsuxa

I wouldn’t necessarily say that Fawlty Towers had particularly subtle humour. It’s the farce elements that are similar. And the schadenfreude.

Late to this but The Studio with Seth Rogen really is as good as everyone says. I honestly think it’s the closest America has ever got to Fawlty Towers.

A lot of MAGA podcasters are convinced Jeffrey Epstein was a spy for Israeli intelligence. I spent a week looking into it and what I found was very surprising. youtu.be/toqY9NIADrY

I enjoy catching trains to Sydney Central cos every post you pass on the track is like a countdown to your destination.

Now why would they do that? The current strategy is working so well and has been all year!

This. Please stop telling me that you are “not surprised.”

Public interest journalism isn’t about shock value.

It’s about informing people and holding power to account.

I don’t care if you’re not surprised by the information I report on.

This genuinely might be the most amazing story we’ve ever told on If You’re Listening. It’s a story of espionage, kidnapping and bravery that explains how we know that Israel has nuclear weapons. youtu.be/lBRWQvICQ9w?...

My primary school-age kids like asking me what my podcast episode is about each week while I'm driving them to after-school activities but this week I'm doing Epstein and don't really want to talk about it.
Anyone got some interesting topics I could regale them with instead?

Real talk those baby bros do be wanting to talk about dinosaurs and trains in the bathroom. They do be wanting to do that.
