Repel from the melty bell, you sweltering Emmets. Welcome to the Blind By Podcast. If this is your first episode, consider going back to an earlier episode to familiarize yourself with the lore of this podcast.
I'm a busy boy this week. I'm in the middle of my Irish tour. Tomorrow night, well, tonight if you're listening to this podcast on Wednesday morning, I'm in Vicar Street. Sold-out gig in Vicar Street. I cannot wait. As I've mentioned before, gigging and touring is very time-consuming. So for this week's podcast, I'm gonna do a phone call episode. And a phone call episode is where it's where I kind of riff. I riff off the top of my head, and the podcast isn't rigorously researched or written. Hundreds of ye have been sending me DMs and asking me to speak about the Jeffrey Epstein carry-on, which is...
The US Department of Justice, the US Department of Justice is releasing some of the Epstein files.
And it's the US Department of Justice now, you see, so you have to take that seriously. And a lot of the Epstein files would suggest that
a group of very powerful billionaires, multimillionaires, people involved in politics, the royal family, a lot of very, very powerful people are alleged to be involved in
sex trafficking of abusing people, abusing children. Things that, to speak about them would get you labelled as a conspiracy theorist.
Now you're looking at files being released by the US Department of Justice, which align with illuminati conspiracy theories. And it would also appear, nothing's being done about it. The current president of the United States, Donald Trump, is implicated heavily. Content warning, because I'm gonna, I'm gonna read out, I'm gonna read out some stuff in the Epstein files that were released by the US Department of Justice. So content warning, if you don't want to hear this, because it does speak about sexual abuse.
So like, this was released and then immediately deleted. So the Department of Justice released this one and then deleted it after an hour, which means this wasn't supposed to get released. So this is, it's a victim statement, I believe, and it says, "An unidentified female friend was forced to perform oral sex on President Trump approximately 35 years ago in New Jersey. The friend told Alexis that she was approximately 13 to 14 years of, years of age when this occurred." She allegedly bit President Trump while performing oral sex and was allegedly hit in the face after she laughed about biting President Trump. The friend said she was
also abused by Epstein. There's another mention of a 14-year-old girl, a big orgy parties with Bill Clinton-present Victoria's Secret models Donald Trump. Another part online complainant reported she was a victim and a witness to a sex trafficking ring at the Trump golf course in Palo Verde between 1995 and 1996. She reported Ghislaine Maxwell as the madame and broker for the sex parties with Epstein, Robin Leach, Donald Trump. Complainant reported participating in orgies and that some girls went missing, rumored to have been murdered and buried at the facility. Complainant reported being threatened
by Trump's then-head of security, that if she ever talked of what went on there and who she saw, she would end up as fertilizer for the back nine halls like the other cunts. That's a quote there. That was released by the US Department of Justice. That was taken down very quickly, but it was released. It stayed up about two hours. It's well documented. The only response from the White House and the Justice Department regarding that is that there was a release, a news release with the new batch of files. And the Department of Justice and the White House said some of the documents contain untrue and sensationalist claims against President Trump that were submitted to the
FBI right before the 2020 election. If you've been looking at like corporate media, they're focusing on Peter Mandelson, fucking Prince Andrew. Prince Andrew is moving out of the whatever royal lodge he's in. It says-
The police are assessing some claims about a woman who was sent to Andrew's home by Epstein in 2010. So the police are assessing that. I, my part, my gut feeling is that Prince Andrew and Mandelson, I think Prince Andrew will performatively receive some type of slap on the wrist to give the appearance of accountability. That's my gut feeling on it. Millions of files were released this week by the US Department of, here's the thing. Some of the things in these files allege cannibalism of infants.
It's, I believe, the testimony of a person who said they witnessed it may not be true. But the point is, it's been released by the US Department of Justice, you see. So now, see, things have moved from tinfoil hat, online Reddit thread, to released by the US Department of Justice. And you see, that massively changes things. And some information is being interrogated by media. Some information isn't being interrogated by the media. And from what I can tell so far, like I said, police are assessing something to do with Andrew.
And police are assess, over in England, police are assessing something to do with Peter Mandelson. And whether or not he, he disclosed, Mandelson was, he was business secretary to the, to Gordon Brown when he was Prime Minister of the UK in 2009. And the police are investigating whether he disclosed sensitive government information to Jeffrey Epstein, which is. White collar. We call that white collar. And that it's more serious than white collar crime because you're talking about someone in a position of political power and they're going against their country and
they might bring a bit of sedition into it, but it's in that white collar territory. Epstein is, is a, he's dead now. Convicted paedophile, right? So he's a convicted paedophile. We're all completely and utterly overwhelmed by this.
The past few weeks I've been, like, people have been asking me, speak about Venezuela. Like, speak about Trump kidnapping the president of Venezuela, or speak about Iran. And each time I've been saying to you, the mo, the, the news is moving so fucking quickly that I don't know what's gonna happen next week. The US kidnapped the president of Venezuela. That was last month. It was a month ago. That was last month. But that doesn't feel like last month. It feels like six years ago. That was last fucking month. Lads, now we can't remember it because we're wondering whether or not Trump has been burying women on golf courses.
And like I said, with that allegation, it's, it's, it's a victim statement in the files. I mean, here's the thing, if, if anyone ever says that, you then immediately expect that the golf course gets dug up, don't you? Someone has just mentioned a murder and a, and a specific place where bodies are buried. Would you not just dig up the golf course then and find out? I haven't heard anything about that. The reason the golf course thing is sticking out for me is I'm not gonna repeat the specific threat that was quoted in the files. I said it a couple of minutes ago. I'm not gonna repeat it again because it's so violent and misogynistic, but it's alleged that Trump's then head of security,
that his threat to girls who had participated in orgies was, you're gonna end up as fertilizer in that golf course. And I can't stop thinking about Ivana Trump. Ivana Trump was, uh, Trump's first wife. The mother of
Ivanka and Donald Junior and Eric. When Ivana divorced Trump in 1990.
She, she accused him of rape. She accused him of cruelty and abuse. And she wrote a tell all book about it. She got a divorce settlement of 14 million in 91, which in these days of billionaires, 14 million doesn't sound like a lot. That was a lot back then. Knowing Trump's personality, he holds grudges. Anyone who's close to him says that he holds grudges. He doesn't let go. He's not a person who forgives people. Ivana died in, in 2022. She fell down a stairs.
And I don't know if you remember this, but it was very strange. He buried her on a golf course. Do you remember that 2022? And it being in the media and everyone going, that's so fucking strange. Why would you bury your ex-wife on a golf course? The fuck is that about? That's so strange to have a plot in a golf course. That's really weird. And everyone noticed how weird it was. And there's just something in the pit of my belly that when I read that thing in the files where allegedly women were threatened with, you'll end up as fertilizer in the golf course. That this was the threat.
This was the violent misogynistic threat to women. I, I can't separate those two things. Ivana Trump was buried on a golf course. I can't separate those two things. It feels, it feels like he's getting his revenge on her in death. It feels like he threatened her with that at one point and then followed through. I don't have proof for that, but I'm just saying she's buried on a golf course. And then you have this thing in the files threatening women to be buried on golf courses. The other huge thing that's standing out for me from the, the recent release, the Epstein files release is since the mid 2010s,
we saw emerging online, the culture wars, the emergence of the alt-right.
Like I've, I've been using the internet a long time.
And I remember like coming across neo-Nazi message boards, like fucking hardcore racists. And coming across these message boards in like 2009. And it was, it was not mainstream. They were weird racists on these tiny little message boards. It rarely spilled outside of that. It didn't become popular. It didn't gain traction. And then in the mid 2010s, you start to see the emergence of the alt-right, neo-Nazis, the manosphere, real toxic, bad shit starts to emerge in the 2010s from, starts on the
likes of 4chan, an incredibly toxic place. Ground zero for this was a message board on 4chan called forward slash poll, forward slash politics.
And the, the alt-right emerged from that message board, okay? And in the fucking Epstein files, Jeffrey Epstein met with the founder of that board in October 2011. And within 24 hours of their meeting, that, that message board is formed, which would, it would suggest that the culture wars themselves of the 2010s might have been a psychological operation, the goal being chaos, division, the chaos and division that we're living with right now. You see, from that 2011 message board, you follow all of that up into the gamer gate
2016. That's what got Trump into power. Brexit came from that. Online radicalization, the polarization. See, before that, you had the Occupy movement, the Occupy movement of 2010, 2011, after the Great Recession, you had a lot of young millennials gathering online and in public spaces saying, we want to take down the bankers. Something is wrong. We want to, we want to get at systems of power here. And then all of a sudden, just when Occupy looked as if people were unified against neoliberalism, then this division emerges where.
These people are racists. Then these other people are mad woke. And now nothing, not, there's no unification because everyone is fighting about identity politics, seek it tribalism and polarization and division. There was always a part of me that felt that. Well, I don't know if that shit was a conspiracy or not. But it's doing the job of what a good conspiracy would do. And what I mean by that is I take it back to a fella called Frank Kitson. I've done podcasts on Frank Kitson before, I can't remember what the fuck they're called. Frank Kitson was British military intelligence, right?
He began in the 1950s in Kenya, when Kenya was part of the British Empire and Kenya was looking for a bit of independence. And then Frank Kitson, so the north of Ireland, early 1970s. You have in 1972, Bloody Sunday, 30th of January, right? The anniversary was a couple of days ago. Catholic civilians were marching for their civil rights in Derry. Unarmed Catholic civilians marching for their civil rights. And British paratroopers opened fire on them. And peaceful civilians marching for their civil rights. Paratroopers opened fire on them. They killed 13 people and injured 15, okay?
The injustice and barbarity of that exploded into what we'd call the troubles in the north of Ireland. The IRA started to take their war against British military presence in the north of Ireland. So Frank Kitson, Kitson goes, right, this, this doesn't look good. The, the eyes of the world are upon us, we're after shooting a lot of innocent civilians. This doesn't look good.
How are we gonna stop this? Okay, what we need is chaos. We need chaos. The British Army can't just take on the IRA. We need fucking chaos. So here's what I'm gonna do. So Frank Kitson formed the Military Reaction Unit. This isn't conspiracy theory. It was conspiracy then, now this is all out in the open. The Military Reaction Unit were British Army soldiers, plainclothes. And what they did is they murdered civilians indiscriminately. Protestant civilians and Catholic civilians. Why? To create violent sectarian conflict, to create chaos. So now there's civilians randomly being shot in Catholic areas,
civilians randomly being shot in Protestant areas. It's the British military doing it in plainclothes. Either side think, you did it, you did it. Now you have chaos. Now you have sectarian war. And the British Army go, should we have to be here? Look at the Paddy's, they're killing themselves, they're killing each other. That was what Frank Kitson did in the seventies. It was a very novel form of control. Destabilize, destabilization. Don't just go in and colonize. That's the old way of doing things. Get in there and fucking destabilize it. Get them fighting amongst each other, then nothing can get solved. And now you have control. That was studied by the FBI.
The FBI even had in the, they had Operation Chaos in the seventies and the eighties. It was a way to stop a unified left wing. Used to try and frame the Black Panthers for murder all the time. Anyway, that's a segue. I always had a feeling in my gut that we would one day find out that the culture wars of the 2010s, both left and right, were being stalked by an intelligence agency of some description. And the reason I thought this was because sometimes I would look at how people become so divided online. And I'd just say to myself, well, if this isn't an intelligence operation or stalked by some type of military intelligence,
it's certainly doing the job of it because what I see is chaos. And one thing I always said too, whether it be Facebook, Reddit, 4chan, fucking Twitter.
You're trying to have political arguments on a platform that's owned by billionaires, where the billionaires have decided that all discussion must take place in the form of turn and response combat with algorithms that reward hate, fear and anger. So you can't fucking solve anything on those platforms anyway because they're designed for conflict. But you have it there in the Epstein files released this week. Ground zero, ground zero for the fucking culture wars 2011, that message board on 4chan forward slash Paul, that opens 24 hours after the moderator meets Jeffrey Epstein.
And there it is in the emails from 2011. And then there's another claim, but this one isn't, isn't as verified. You can't see an email about it, but a lot of people reckon, and this is hearsay, that Ghislaine Maxwell was doing the same shit on Reddit, except for the left. That one has less proof, that's not in the files. I don't want to get into the nitty gritty of what's released in the files, millions of them. I've only seen some. What I have seen is shocking, especially some of the fucking images. Some of the images are almost child sexual abuse material. The Department of Justice, Justice themselves said they did not release images that depict torture and death.
So that means they exist, but they haven't released them. What we're seeing is organized crime. That's what this is. It's organized crime perpetrated by the most powerful people and wealthiest people in the world. I don't think there's going to be accountability for it. I think the fact that it's slowly being dripped out to us, the fact that, like, why aren't they just releasing everything at once? They're not, they're drip feeding. And the other thing too is, like, they have to release these files because of the law, US civil procedure and the transparency laws.
They require that the disclosure of evidence, once secrecy is no longer legally justified. So they have to, this is evidence and they have to release this legally. The slow drip feed, that's the bit that's quasi-legal.
And I think it's, it's like what we saw with the genocide in fucking Gaza. There's a brazenness to it. It's a flaunting of a lack of accountability to exert control and power. I mean, with Palestine over the past two or three years, you've got the International Criminal Court, who have a warrant out for Netanyahu, who has a fucking war criminal. Nothing's been done about that. No international governments who are obliged to arrest him have done it. You've got fucking the UN calling it a genocide.
I mean, we're supposed to believe that international law exists and something would be done about it, but nothing's been done about it. And it exhausts us until we slowly just accept it. We just want to get on with our lives because it's so fucking exhausting and we feel so powerless that the slow drip feed makes us just accept that this is the new world we live in. And I think that's what they're doing with the fucking Epstein files. The slow drip, the slow release, the fact that the shit that I just mentioned there about golf courses and murders, that it's like there's one corner of the internet, the Department of Fucking Justice, where you can look at these files and see them.
And then there's another corner of the internet called corporate fucking media that we rely upon as a pillar stone of democracy. And they're not reporting on those bits as if they don't exist. And we saw that too with Gaza. It's like we would go to our trusted news source every day. BBC, RTE, whatever the fuck. You'd go to your trusted news source. And it's like, I've been on the internet. I've seen footage of war crimes. I've seen footage of horrendous, terrible things happening to tiny children in Gaza. But why, when I go to the news, am I just seeing propaganda? Why is corporate media minimizing war crimes here? Why is it using passive voice?
And the goal is to exhaust the average person so that we become conditioned to this being the new reality? And that's what the Epstein files is doing. It's conditioning us to go.
Oh, I guess there's a, a big elite paedophile ring and sex trafficking ring and nothing's gonna be done about it and I as an individual can't do fuck all about it. So better just get on with my life and hope I don't, I hope they don't target me. See if our media isn't aggressively calling out the things that we can see with our own eyes. And then the justice systems around the world aren't doing it. Like the Brits are under pressure. So you've got things like, police are assessing the Andrew situation. You're assessing, really, are ye? If that was my neighbour down the road, I'm pretty sure they'd be arrested. Don't think he'd be assessing it. Be arrested.
So then we are like, well, you can't rely upon journalism. You can't rely upon the justice system. I guess this is the new reality now. I mean, that's why Luigi Mangione terrifies them. They came down hard on Luigi Mangione, very hard on him. Cause Luigi Mangione went, hold on a second, the US health insurance system. So people pay for health insurance, but health insurance companies make money not by helping people who need healthcare, but by profiting from denying it. Oh, so ye make money when the person dies from cancer.
That's how ye make money, is it? When the little child whose parents have paid for health insurance, ye make money by denying the health insurance to that child and figuring out a way to let that child die. That's how ye make money, is it? Why isn't that illegal? It's not illegal. Oh, that's the system. And then Luigi Mangione went, that seems like a very serious evil crime to me and the justice system, system isn't working for me and politicians aren't working for me and the media isn't working and what these healthcare, uh, what these health insurance companies are doing, that appears quite like an evil crime. So Luigi Mangione went, I think I'm gonna have to do justice myself.
And he assassinated the CEO of United Healthcare. And he wrote a little manifesto and laid out very clearly, now this is what this is and this is why I'm doing it. I'm not crazy, this is what I'm doing. And then the justice system came down really hard on him. They were pushing for the death penalty, the media came down hard on him, politicians, the system came down hard and said, that's a criminal. See that guy, Luigi Mangione, that's a criminal. He's a criminal doing crime. So I think what we're seeing with the, the Epstein stuff is a conspiracy, but I contextualize it as it's organized crime, right?
That is organized crime at a massive international scale involving the most powerful and wealthy people. The, it looks like a combination of blackmail and gang initiation. Let's use the Hells Angels as an example. We can all agree that the Hells Angels are an international criminal, organized crime organization, all right? Across different countries, they're involved in drugs, murder, prostitution, everything and anything, the, the Hells Angels and other, some outlaw motorcycle groups are, they're mafias, that's what they are.
The reason I'm singling out outlaw motorcycle gangs is because, because they're really strict initiations, right? In order to have a successful international criminal organization where your coworkers are not nice people, not people with honor, not people that you can trust, psychopaths. In order to have a good business relationship, you can't trust your coworkers because they're murderers and scumbags.
So what they have to do is everyone has to have dirt on each other. So if one person falls, everyone falls. So there's core reports of, in order to get to the highest echelons of certain outlaw motorcycle gangs, you have to do some pretty depraved shit in the presence of other people.
One of them, necrophilia is one of them, which is sexual intercourse with a corpse. Because if a person will do that, well, they're definitely not a police officer. Because they've figured out, any police officer as a job who's undercover, even if they're in the job 10 fucking years, it is highly unlikely that they're gonna have sex with a dead body in front of other people in order to get to the top of the organisation. So if you're willing to do that, then you're not a cop. So you get to get into the elite inner circle of this outlaw criminal organisation. Now, let's move from like motorcycle gangs, which, you know,
with motorcycle gangs, you're talking about very traumatised, poor, um, working class, usually white men joining motorcycle gangs. Now, let's go for really, really posh people. So in, I think it's either fucking Oxford or Cambridge, I'm not sure which one, but there's a club called the Bullingdon Club. The Bullingdon Club is like a supper club that's been, was founded in the 19th century. A huge amount of British prime ministers were in the Bullingdon Club. I know David Cameron was in it, I know that Boris Johnson was in it. I know this because the photographs are online, just type in Boris Johnson, Bullingdon Club.
Right, so this is evidence-based. On the outside, what is it? A lot of posh boys at this really elite school in England, they have a supper club together. That's all it is. Now, what happens when you join the Bullingdon Club in Oxford or Cambridge? I can't remember which fucking university, doesn't matter, they're all the same. Here you have future prime ministers. They know they're gonna be future members of the Conservative Party. They know this at 19 or 20, got their paths set out for them. When you join the Bullingdon Club, there's humiliation rituals. You have to strip down in front of the other people at the club. You have to get shitfaced drunk, you have to puke, you have to vomit.
And the big thing that they do is, the lads in the Bullingdon Club, who are all profoundly wealthy, they go to a restaurant, they eat their meal, and then they fucking trash the place.
They trash the place, they pull the curtains off the walls, they break glasses, they fucking ruin the place. They humiliate the waiters, the people working there. And then, after they trash the place, and this is tradition in the Bullingdon Club, after they trash the place, they go to the owner of the restaurant and they say, "We're all really, really posh and really powerful. Don't ring the police, because there's no point. How much damage did we do? Thirty grand, forty grand, fifty grand, sixty? Okay, here's a cheque for seventy grand. All right, just pay for the restaurant and we're gone." That's what the Bullingdon Club does. Do you remember in 2015, when the allegations arose that David Cameron fucked a pig?
That David Cameron put his dick into a pig's mouth, okay? I know my ma's listening to this now, my ma's gonna kill me because she hates it when I talk like this.
It was all over the fucking news, David Cameron, who was Prime Minister. Allegations came out that when he was in college, he stuck his dick into a dead pig's mouth. Why did we know this? Because another member of the Bullingdon Club, Michael Ashcroft, said, "That's what happened at the Bullingdon Club. That's what he did, he stuck his dick into a pig's mouth, we all saw it, we were all there." And then you and me are going, "Why the fuck would you do that?" And then I'm going, "I would never hang around with anyone that would..." First off, I wouldn't fucking do it. And I would never be in the company of anyone who would want me to do it. What the fuck is going on?
And it's initiation, it's humiliation, it's ritual. It's like the Hells Angels. Well, if you wanna get to the fucking top here, dig up that grave, alright? And do some shit there with all of us watching, because we want dirt on you, because we don't trust you. So we need to be able to destroy you, and I'll have a crack as well, and you can destroy me. And that's what the bullyinging club is. They're setting themselves up for future corruption. We know that we're gonna go into politics, we know that we're gonna have power. We know that we're not gonna play by the rules, we know we're gonna be dirty fuckers, right? I don't trust you, you don't trust me. Stick your dick into that pig's mouth, please, I'll do it afterwards. Everyone's seen it, let's take a couple of photographs to keep it safe.
And then we go on our merry ways and rule the fucking world. Certain criminal gangs are like, if you wanna be in this gang, you have to kill someone, you have to kill a random stranger. Look at the horrendous things that the Mexican cartels do. Look at the performative violence, the beheadings, the ex- like even beyond, I'm not gonna speak about what the Mexican cartels do, because anyone who- The Mexican cartels inspired ISIS, put it that way.
When the internet came about, the Mexican cartels would post videos online of
not puff execution, right, but beyond execution. What is the most depraved and spectacularly violent way that we can execute a person on camera in order to frighten our enemies, but also to control our members? In America, in the posh schools, there's a thing called the Skull and Bones Society. Again, this is, you can, all of this stuff is verified. So with the Skull and Bones, I think Bill Clinton was in it, George Bush was in it, a lot of presidents.
It's Princeton or one of them, I don't know, same shit. Elite colleges in America where future presidents, okay.
One of the skull and bones rituals, again, this is rumor, it's not 100% verified, but I think they have to climb, climb into a coffin and masturbate in the coffin while being surrounded by other members and then listing out secrets as if they're at a confession and if to do this for group cohesion, humiliation, everyone has dirt on each other and then a lot of them go on to become American presidents. The point I'm trying to get at is it's not satanic worship. You don't need anything supernatural here. You just need horrible people with access to power. And what are you willing to do to get into this little club?
Because this club here, we're gonna have a lot of fucking power and we're gonna be really nasty in how we get this power, but we can't have any goody two shoes around here. We can't have anyone here who believes in something like decency, compassion and justice. Okay. So if you believe in, in treating people with respect, if you believe in democracy, if you believe in compassion, you can't be in this club, all right? And we're gonna make sure that you don't get into this, this club because we're gonna ask you, we're gonna start off slow and one day you're gonna say, no, I'm not doing that. No, that's wrong. That's, that's cruel or no, I've got self-respect. I don't want to humiliate myself in front of ye.
And then the rest of them go, okay, grand, see you later. And then you're not in the club and, and that doesn't just apply to criminal gangs and global elites.
I mean, that's a lot of, it's a lot of life.
Like I work in the entertainment industry and certain parts of the entertainment industry can be a little bit like that. Now, I've never seen anything Epstein adjacent or anything like that, but something as simple as, so I did, I did a big international tour a couple of years back. I don't want to say the territory, but an international tour in another continent. So if you're an artist and you want to do a tour in another continent, you need to have a promoter. A promoter is the person or organisation who will put that tour on, who will book the venues, bring you over and make sure the gigs go ahead. So that's what
you need if you want to do an international tour. So I wanted to do a podcast tour in this continent. So my agent approached a big, huge, massive promoter, one of these massive companies that promote tours. And my agent says, look, Blind Boy, he's got listeners in this continent. He'd like to do a few gigs in different cities. Will you promote this tour? And the big giant company said, no, we don't want to take the risk. We don't think that Blind Boy will sell out all the gigs. We're not interested. We won't take that risk. So it's like, okay, fine. But then a tiny promoter gets in touch. Just
two lads, tiny, tiny little promotion company. And they say, we'll bring Blind Boy for a tour. We'll promote his tour. We'll take that risk. We'll bring him over. So I said, fuck it, great. So I went and did the tour with this tiny company. Now, they took a huge risk. They're booking the gigs. If those gigs don't sell out, they can lose their arses. But that didn't happen. The tour was, every gig sold out. It was really successful. Everyone was happy. And this tiny company, this, this, these promoters made up of two people, they were lovely. They were kind to me. They were so accommodating. They were nice people.
They were, they were nice. They were decent, honest people. They were fans of the podcast. They really wanted to put this tour on for me. And they said, fuck it. If you don't sell, we'll take that risk. We really want to do this because we love your podcast. But you know what? Their gut feeling was right. All the tour sold out 100%. Everyone was happy. And then they said, will you come back? Will you come back again to this continent for another tour and let us be your promoters for the next tour? And of course I said, yes, of course. The tour sold out. You're lovely people. I love working with you. Of course. Next time I want to do this continent, I'm
going to do it with you. But then I get back to Ireland and the huge company, the big massive company that had initially said, no, we won't take you on tour. They were watching. And this huge touring company saw the risk that this tiny promoter took. And then they went to me and my agent and said, sorry, we were wrong. We're going to take you out for the next tour and we're going to make it massive. And you're going to play all these venues and we'll put all our promotion behind you. And we're going to make you massive in this continent. Will you do that? And I said, no, I won't do that
because that would be horrible to the two lads who took the risk and who were so nice to me. I'd hate to do that. I'd feel like shit. I couldn't possibly do that. No, I'm going to do the next tour with those two lads who took the risk because they're lovely people. That's who I'm going to do the next tour with. And the big company said, are you fucking sure? Because we'll make you massive. Because you see, the big companies, the big touring companies, they can put you on newspapers, television, do all that shit in a new territory. And I said, no, sorry, I'd feel like shit. I would feel like shit. I'd rather stay at this level of success and feel like a good person than move up
and be a prick. And that big touring, they didn't even respond to that email. Didn't even respond. Just like, what the fuck is up with this little prick from Limerick? Now, I'm not performatively trying to tell you that I'm a good person. I'm just saying that's, that's a no brainer for me. That's how I operate. Treating people the way that I'd like to be treated and then feeling like a good person. That's more important to me than having more success. Legitimately, I wouldn't be able to enjoy more success. If I got that success by being cruel or mean or dishonest. And I only work with people who are kind.
Like I've had the same agent. For sixteen years, my agent, Mark.
One of the kindest, most decent people I've ever met in my life. So honest in how he deals with everybody. And that's why I've been with him for fucking ages. And I have a tiny amount of people who I work with. And it's long term relationships because they're all kind, honest people, and that's important to me. And I can't work with people who are
dishonest or cruel or mean. Or who are bullies or any of that shit. Or who expect that from me and just no, not interested. The problem is in my industry, conducting yourself in that way often means that you you plateau, you can plateau. But if you're willing to be like a really selfish prick. You climb higher and then you interact with other people that are that way. And then it spirals into this toxicity at the top. Like it could even work against you. Like a couple of years back, I was gigging. I was headlining a very large tent at one of the big Irish festivals.
And I ended up having to change at the side of that tent with no dressing room. Now, that's not supposed to happen and it doesn't matter. I fucking, I threw my bag on it, threw my clothes on, I changed in a field, who gives a shit?
But you know why that happened? Because my agent was like, that's not supposed, you're headlining a fucking giant tent. Why didn't you have a dressing room? How the fuck does that happen? It happened because. Everyone at the festival knew Asher Blind by his sound, he doesn't mind. You see, there might have been other performers who were kicking up a fuss, who were being mean to people, who were being more demanding. I need this, I need this. If I don't have this, the show, I'm not going on stage. I need that. Where's my this, where's my that? So then the organisers are frightened, attending to the needs of performers that are being very demanding.
And then when it comes to me, they go, Asher, he doesn't mind. Ah, Blind by his sound. No, no, no, he's grand, he's grand. And that then spiraled into me not having a changing room at the side of stage. And there was, I went out to about 12,000 people, like it was a big gig. And it meant my agent, I spoke to my agent about it then, and then he went, fuck. I'm gonna have to be a bit more of a prick next year and be a bit more demanding, because we can't have that. Now, the thing is, I didn't really mind changing in a field. It was inconvenient because my socks, my socks got all wet because I had to stand in mud. So that's not ideal. But no one, it wasn't the organisers' fault, no one was being mean. It's just everyone said, ah, Blind by his sound, he doesn't mind.
Attend to that other entertainer's needs first because they're throwing a tantrum. And what pissed me off about it was, it wasn't that I had to change in a field. It was that the system meant that I have to be, I'm forced into being a little bit demanding of people in order to get my needs met, because that's the way the system is. And that pissed me off. This is a phone call podcast, so allow me to go on bizarre tangents. I'm aware that only five minutes ago, I was talking about the Hells Angels having sex with corpses. What I'm trying to get at is that
under the, the system of capitalism is very, very cruel. It's based on domination, exploitation. The 1% is me and you. It's people who live in the global north.
The quality of life that you have if you live in America or Europe or Australia, the quality of life that you have in the global north, the access to cheap food, clothes, these things come to us as consumers under the capitalism and globalisation. Like, I know someone who got arrested for growing and selling cannabis to a few of their friends, right? Someone who was growing their own cannabis in their house and selling this cannabis to a network of about six friends. They were arrested, they were brought to trial, they're a criminal now. They spent a few weeks in prison. They're a criminal, but
purchasing cannabis from that person is more ethical than the underpants that I buy in a high street shop, where the raw materials and labour and construction of those underpants is made in the global south, in a sweat factory, where people are being exploited and abused. It's almost impossible to live outside of that system. Our phones contain rare earth minerals that are mined in artisanal mines in the Congo, where children have their hands chopped off. Even the term there artisanal mine, like an artisanal,
it's a tiny, small-scale mine carried out by individuals without equipment. You're talking about the poorest of the poor people in countries in the global south, and there's no health and safety, and child labour is used, warlords are sometimes involved. I'm talking gold, diamonds, tungsten, certain gemstones, coltan. Coltan is what's in our phones. We're insulated from this, because we're insulated from that chain. So we just see the phone in the shop. The point I'm getting at is that the system.
The system is quite evil and the people at the top of that system, the billionaires, the politicians, the people in the Epstein files, these people need to be comfortable with cruelty and greed and horrible things. Like, I know Barack Obama is not mentioned in the Epstein files,
but Barack Obama, he presents himself as like, you think he's an alright type of fella? He seems like a nice person, doesn't he? He used to drone weddings, collateral damage, they'd call it. He'd get a report from the CIA and it's like,
"There's a wedding there in Pakistan, there's 300 people in attendance. And in this wedding are three top Al Qaeda members. We can hit it tonight with a drone strike. We reckon the collateral damage would be maybe 80, 90 people. Children, women, innocent people, but we'll definitely take out two of those Al Qaeda guys. Do you wanna go ahead with that?" And then Barack Obama says, "Yeah, let's do that." It's estimated about 1,000 civilians died between 2009 and 2015 from Obama's drone strikes in Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan. Thousand people, innocent people. I'm sure Obama rationalised it by saying, "Look, I'm defending the constitution. Like, the CIA told me to do it, I don't know."
People who get into positions of extreme power, they know they have to,
under the system, they have to create a hell of a lot of pain.
Not even drone strikes. Someone who rises to the very top of a corporation, "The company can make more profits this year if you close that factory and 500 people who are supporting their families lose their jobs, but we'll make more profits." "Okay, do it." The CEOs of health insurance companies, your job is to make profits. By denying people health insurance, that person who's dying of cancer, who has paid for their health insurance every single year for this exact moment,
you have to figure out how to not pay them and let them die because that's how this model makes money. The people who rise to the top of the system, the top of that fucking global international shit,
they're not good people. A lot of them might be incredibly cruel sadists.
They might be people who have a curiosity about other people's pain, who get a thrill from other people's pain, who enjoy dominating, enjoy hearting, enjoy abusing, enjoy humiliating. And judging by the Epstein files, these are the roles of being part of that club. What you're seeing is organised crime and also it's blackmail. It's a blackmail network. The files also strongly suggest that Epstein was working for somewhere between Mossad, who are the Israeli intelligence services and the CIA. And MI5 were stuck in there too with some Libyan shit that he was doing.
But intelligence services like the CIA or Mossad or MI5, you think of them as these operate to service their respective countries, like the militaries of their respective countries or the safety of those countries. Think of them more as the organised crime wing of wealthy industrialists and billionaires who use lobbying to control governments. Now, I wanted to get to the roots of the blackmail operation side of things, where you have to go back as far as prohibition in America in the 1920s. Before I do that, let's have a little Ocarina pause. I don't have an Ocarina. I've got a tin of sparkling water that I'm gonna tip the side of
and you're gonna hear an advert for some bullshit.
Very lackluster sound off this can.

I get to earn a living and I'm not beholden to the whims of advertisers. Upcoming gigs. So tonight, I'm in Vicker Street, right? That is sold out. Thank you so much to everybody for selling that out. So I've added a second Vicker Street, which is in fucking April. What day is? You'll figure it out. I don't know what day that is in April, but there's a second Vicker Street gig. My Vicker Street gigs are fantastic crack. I always put them on midweek. They're very intimate. They're wonderful and I have a cracker of a guest tonight. Next week, I'm in Belfast at the Waterfront Theatre. Wonderful venue. That gig is almost sold out. Last few tickets left for that.
Then on the 15th, Sunday, I'm in Galway at Leisure Land. Come on, Galway, give me some crack. Then after that, on the 28th, I'm in the Aineck in Killarney. Can't wait for a bit of Aineck. March, I'm up there in Carlo. That's nearly sold out. Visual Arts Centre in Carlo, about 10 tickets left for that. 23rd of March, the Cork Opera House for the Cork Opera Festival. Not the Cork Opera Festival, the Cork Podcast Festival. Although me gigging at an opera festival would be good crack, wouldn't it? The Cork Podcast Festival, which I can never pronounce properly every year. Two lads around that are lovely fellas, right? Check out the Cork Podcast Festival's website, see what else is going on.
Then in April, Castle Blaney. Where the fuck is that? And then I'm in Limerick. Where the fuck is Castle Blaney? Let's get this out of the way. Where is it? Monaghan, Patrick Cavanagh territory. All right, Monaghan, let's have some of you. Then back in Limerick there, at the University Concert Hall. Come along to that. And then we'll... Oh, I have a gig in Sheffield, have I? When the fuck is Sheffield? Bollocks, when is that? Is it July? Sheffield there at the Crossed Wires Festival. Where the fuck am I playing in Sheffield? City Hall, is it? They're gonna get pissed off at me if I fuck this up.
Listen, I'm doing a gig in Sheffield in July at the Crosswires Festival and I've just, I've forgotten where the gig is, but sure, fuck it, it's months away and I'll figure it out. Then England, Scotland and Wales tour, next fucking October 26, right? Brighton, Cardiff, Coventry, Bristol, Guildford, London, in the Barbican, Glasgow Gate, said Nottingham. Man to fuck. So look loads of you were asking me to talk about Jeffrey Epstein.
The thing is, right, so, fair play to the conspiracy theorists, alright, you were right about a lot of stuff. Unfortunately, you were right. What a lot of the conspiracy theorists were not right about was who was doing it. You've elected into power Donald Trump, right? So the people who are funding right wing groups around the world, the people who want you to turn against immigrants, the people who want you to turn against feminists, trans people, women, the people who want you to hate wokeness, the people who tell you everyone
is a Marxist communist and they want to destroy the world, the people have told you to turn against woke, they're funding all of that, okay? So those people are actually the ones who, they really want you to be against immigrants and feminists and trans people. They really want this so that we have the type of division that distracts us from what they're doing. I think they funded things like QAnon, the alt-right, they also funded conspiracy theories about a shadowy global paedophile elite to make it look ridiculous
so that some people would never touch it because it is so ridiculous. Like adrenochrome, I think it's ridiculous. So even if there is torture of children happening.
It's not so that they can milk the glands of children to get like an elixir for eternal youth. Similarly, I don't think that these people are actually interdimensional shapeshifting lizards belonging to some ancient alien bloodline. If some type of satanic worship or ritual is involved, it's not supernatural. It's, it's a way to have group cohesion. It's, it's, it's hazing. It's, it's group grooming. I think a much more helpful way for us to look at it is we're witnessing organised crime. So criminals, organised crime at a
grand scale. And what all of these people have in common is immense power and wealth. And we should never let those people tell us what to argue about. Okay. Because it's all a way to get us fighting amongst each other so that they never have to be held accountable at all. Chaos and exhaustion is the goal. And I think the ultimate goal, and you can see this with the likes of Peter Thiel, um, and the Dark Enlightenment fellows like Curtis Yarvin. They want to abolish democracy and nation states so that they can form freedom
cities. And again, freedom city, they want to have areas where only billionaires live and there's no laws or rules there. I think they want to, in the face of climate collapse, I think they're trying to replace a huge amount of the population with artificial intelligence robots. I know this sounds fucking nuts, but you can see it unfolding. They're putting a lot of money into artificial intelligence robots that can perform the work of the working class. They want to move to a type of technological feudalism where, and you can see this now with.
How huge, giant investment funds invest in, in property. So they don't want a future where people own their own property. They want a future where we perpetually rent. So everything is perpetually rented, not just your home, but access to resources like food, water, the technology that you use. Everything is, will be shifted towards a subscription model where you're not really even a consumer anymore. Everything is, you're subscribing or renting and you're tied to that. And then likely because of what Palantir is doing, which is Peter Thiel's company,
they're going to use AI to try and have some type of social credit system where your access to the things that you can rent is denied if you don't behave properly. If you look at Trump and his Freedom Council and some of the proposals, what they want to do to Gaza, the city that they will rebuild in Gaza. Like if you look at the plans that they have explicitly laid out, the people in Gaza won't have cash, they'll have like digital credits, like Disney dollars. So there's full control over how they spend.
The land is treated as a redevelopment asset, not as a homeland. Gaza would be a humanitarian zone rather than an autonomous political entity. The population would be viewed as like aid recipients rather than citizens. Just this weird AI-controlled technocracy ruled by Trump's Board of Peace, as he calls it, right? And these are the plans that are, that's out in the open. That's what they want to do to Gaza. And my gut feeling on that is just like in the 1970s, when the US toppled the, the government of Salvador Allende in Chile and replaced him with Pinochet.
That's when neoliberalism was tested on an entire population, right? Chile was used as a test tube for the entire privatization of all public infrastructure. What became Reaganomics or Margaret Thatcher's policies was first tested deliberately by economists from Chicago, the Chicago Boys, that was tested out in Chile in the seventies. And my hot take, my gut feeling, is that that's what they want to do to Gaza. They want to test a new type of technocratic AI form of population control that would then be deployed to the rest of the fucking world while the billionaires live in freedom cities.
Like a medieval feudalism where only the rich live behind the castle walls and everyone else is in the wild wilderness outside of it, competing for resources. The only thing that can stop that is unity. Unity amongst the 99% of the human population. Polarization is going to accelerate it. So what you see with the Epstein thing? It's, it's, it appears to be a big, massive blackmail operation for the most powerful people in the world, doing the most horrendous shit imaginable. Cause a lot of them, that's what they want, that's what they're into, that's what they enjoy.
And then about trying to bring people into that club, to condition them into that way of behaving and using peer pressure or drugs or coercion to get them to behave that way or to do it dishonestly. Maybe somebody went to Epstein's island, thought it was just a big, cool party with rich people, ended up, ended up meeting a girl at that party, thinking that she was overage and that it was consensual. Then having sex with that person, there's a hidden camera and then afterwards it turns out, oh, she's actually underage. You thought that she was maybe 20 or 21, but that's not the case at all.
And she didn't have sex with you out of free will, she was coerced into that. And we have footage of it now and you're very wealthy and powerful and now you have to toe the line. I would wager that there was also some of that. How does it get to that point? And, and again, like I said, judging by the files, it would appear that Epstein works for both Mossad and the CIA. Ghislaine Maxwell, her father was Robert Maxwell. Robert Maxwell was definitely with Mossad. You, you have to go back to prohibition in America. Do you know what? Even farther than that, I'll take it to, to, this is a hot take
episode, lads. This is a ramble. I'm gonna take it to Limerick in the early 1800s. I'm aware how insane this sounds, but you'll just have to trust my process. So, monster in Ireland in the early 1800s. There was, I suppose what you'd call deeply entrenched gang culture. In 1815 in Ireland, before the famine, the genocide, the population of Ireland was about eight million people. There'd been nearly 200 years of the penal laws, which meant that you had a massive peasant population who, for 200 years, had no access to, they
couldn't vote, land, housing, complete disenfranchisement of an entire population. Social dysfunction, alcoholism was rampant. The colonized population of Ireland in the early 1800s, people turned against each other in the form of what was called faction fighting. There were multiple gangs who would meet up on fair days and kick the living shit out of each other, murder each other, like literally kill each other with sticks and shillellys and harleys and bash each other's brains in. Because when a population is colonized for that long, power is stripped away.
The British colonial power is so powerful that you can't, you don't even know where to start fighting them. People just turned against each other and that anger came out as faction fighting. And there was loads of gangs. You had gangs like the White Boys, who were kind of political, but then you had other ones called the Caravats. And the Caravats would fight the Shanavests. And the Caravats were the Caravats because they had Caravats like little neck scarves and then the Shanavests would wear vests. And this was enough for these groups to meet, get drunk and murder each other, literally kill each other. This was concentrated mostly around Munster, so Tipperary, Cork, Limerick.
You had all these different incredibly violent gangs, 1810, 1815. In Limerick, there was two gangs called the Three Year Olds and the Four Year Olds. And they used to bash each other's brains in. They used to be one gang. Just, I'm not pulling this out of my arse. I'm taking this information from one of my favourite fucking history books. It's called Irish Peasants, Violence and Political Unrest from 1780 to 1914. It's an academic book. So you had these gangs in Limerick, the Three Year Olds and the Four Year Olds in like 1815. They were initially one gang, but they had a falling out over the age of a pig, which is hilarious.
But they fought over the age of a fucking pig. Is it three years' age? Is it four years of age? I don't know, now we're two different gangs. They bashed their heads in so much that... There's a little bridge in Limerick City called the Sylvester O'Halloran Bridge. It's closed off now, but you can walk over it. Sylvester O'Halloran was a sergeant in Limerick City around the time that these faction fights were happening. The reason there's a bridge named after this sergeant is that he actually advanced modern brain surgery. And the reason that he advanced the modern brain surgery is because when he was practising, the Three Year Olds and the Four Year Olds was to smash each other's heads in so badly
that he would put their brains back into their heads and he advanced brain surgery. Here's what I'm trying to get to. That violent faction, the gang fighting.
That's 1815, 1820, 1830. Then the famine hits. And we lose half our population. We go from a population of eight million people to under four million people. Two million people die in a genocide. And then the other two million, they emigrate, they leave, they go to Australia, but mostly they go to America, Chicago and New York. So New York starts flooding with the poorest of the poor, Irish immigrants who have entrenched gang culture. They're discriminated against and they end up in, in like hundreds of thousands of them in the slums of New York, particularly around an area called the Five Points of Manhattan.
It's now Canal Street. If you've ever been to Canal Street near the Brooklyn Bridge, that was the Five Points. It was a sunken slum where in the 1840s, it was just Irish people and recently freed African American, recently freed African Americans who had been slaves. So the Irish then bring the gang culture and then you don't have three year olds and four year olds or caravans and shanavets anymore. You get gangs called like the Dead Rabbits who beat the living shit out of each other, the same as they did back in Limerick, back in Tipperary. Now their kids are doing it and you've got gang culture in New York City, in the slums of Chicago.
It's like 1850, 1860 now. A lot of those Irish, they turned on their African American neighbours and lynched them because some of those Irish were sent to fight in the civil war and they blamed their African American neighbours for the reason for that. They turned against them. Really, it was the, it was the rich, wealthy fucking Yanks going, here's some poor Irish, send them down to fight. I don't want to go down and fight. I ju- I was escaping war back home in Ireland. I'm here in New York. I don't want to go to the fight for the fucking Union or against the Confederates. I don't even know what that is. Oh, you're fighting for those black people over there for their freedom. And then the Irish turned against their African American neighbours instead of going to
the rich people and saying, fuck you. Anyway, the Irish bring gang culture to New York City, to Chicago, to Boston, the whole shebang. Then you've got the 1860s. Italy is, is a new country.
Before Italy was a country, it was a series of different duchies, like royal states, the Bourbon Empire, I think it was called, I could be wrong there. Anyway, look, in 1860, the southern part of Italy, in particular fucking Sicily, a little island at the bottom of, of Italy, is in a state of social collapse. There's no law and order, or there's no central rule. So, so Sicily in 1860 is incredibly poor and it's lawless. And Sicily is an agrarian community where they're growing and exporting tomatoes and lemons.
So what's happening in Sicily with tomatoes and lemons being grown, there's no police.
So bandits, criminals are now like stealing money from the people who are trying to, from the industrialists and the farmers who have a bit of money, who are growing crops. Now there's no police, so they're getting robbed. What do the wealthy farmers do? Okay, there's no police and getting robbed. I don't want someone robbing my money or my lemons or my tomatoes. I'm gonna need security. So the wealthy farmers go to the local hard lads and say, there's no police. Will you be my security? So the local scumbags are like, okay, I'll be your security.
I've got guns, I'll protect your lemon grove, I'll protect your tomatoes. But then what happens is the hard lads that are doing security, then they, they're, they're the same ones that are stealing the money. So now they get protection rackets going, so they go to the farmers and it's like, pay me money.
Or else your lemons are getting stolen. So pay me money, pay me protection money, a racket. So Sicily falls into absolute fucking poverty chaos. So then you get this wave of very poor Italian immigrants coming into the slums of New York, where the Irish are, the Irish are already like hardcore entrenched gangs, but not really criminal. They're just kicking the shit out of each other and getting drunk like they did back in fucking Limerick. Now the Italians come in, some of those Italians are like, I'm gonna start a business, I'm gonna have a shop. But then some of the other Italians are the scumbag security guards that were
extorting and demanding protection money from the farmers who were growing lemons. So those fellas go, there's no lemon groves here, there's no tomatoes being grown, but they're shopkeepers. So I'm gonna go to the shopkeepers and say,
"Give me money or your shop is going on fire." And this is about 1870 now, that becomes the mafia. That, that's the Sicilian mafia in New York. So now you have organised criminality. They're criminals like the Irish in the slums, except it's a business model now. So this has happened in late 1800s in every major east coast American city, Chicago, New York, fucking Pennsylvania, Boston, whole shebang. You've got the Irish and the Italians, 1870. The Russian Empire, the Russian Empire falls apart. Now, there was a load of Jewish people living in the Russian Empire.
They were banished to an area called the Pale of Settlement, which would be what Ukraine is now, I think, right? When the Russian Empire fell apart, 1870, those Jewish people now didn't have any protection and there was huge pogroms, right? Anti-Semitic ethnic cleansing of Jewish people in the Pale of Settlement. So now you had all these Jewish refugees. Now they're heading over into the same slums of New York, Boston, Chicago, where you've got... Italian mafia beginning, very violent Irish gangs. And then these Jewish people coming from, from the Russian Empire. And now they're in the same slums and they now start forming gangs to protect themselves
from the, the Irish and from the fucking, the, the Italians. So what you start to see by 1900 then is the mob, the emergence of organised crime, money lending, gambling, prostitution. The Irish were hitmen. They used to do murder for hire. That was the Irish thing. In particular, they used to love killing English people if at all possible. But even though you still had gangsters and criminals in the slums in, let's say 1910, it wasn't massively organised. They weren't making huge amounts of money. But then prohibition comes in, in the twenties. Prohibition lasted from 1920 to 1933.
Alcohol became illegal. And that was the most stupid thing that America ever did. So now you had an incredibly violent cohort of very poor Italian Jewish and Irish mobsters. And they started to be the ones who were supplying alcohol because it was an illegal drug. But the thing is with alcohol, like everyone wants a drink, everyone. So it's not like cocaine or heroin where only some people want it. With fucking drink, everyone wants it. So speakeasy start to open, nightclubs.
It's fucking big business. The Irish, the Jews and Italians are all running it. African Americans were too, up in Harlem and parts of the Bronx. But if you're ever wondering why were the, like the Italians and the Irish and the Jewish more successful? Racism, it's because of racism. With the Irish, if you weren't a gangster, your brother was a policeman, or your cousin was a politician, same with the Italians and same with the Jewish gangsters. Access to power, to corruption, bribery, judges, politicians, so it could run more smoothly. But with African American gangs, you didn't have a brother or a cousin who was a policeman,
or who was a politician, or who was connected. So racism always kept that down. So you start to see your big names emerging, like Al Capone in Chicago. And how that prohibition thing connects to Epstein, right? And I know this is sounding nuts.
When alcohol became the illegal drug, and remember now it's illegal. So if you go to a speakeasy, it's not a licensed premise. It's also a brothel now as well too, you see. Because everything's illegal now. You're in an illegal place, so anything can happen. There's gambling, prostitution, and drink in the same place. So now you have, wealthy people are turning up to the speakeasy. Now you've got politicians, judges, the mayor, civil servants, people involved in unions, people who would be middle class or upper class are now fraternising with criminals because that's how they access alcohol. And then one of the gangsters, his name is Meyer Lansky.
Meyer Lansky is portrayed in, I think it's The Godfather Part Two. He's the Jewish gangster that gets them all to go down to Cuba to form like a national crime syndicate. That's based on a real thing. Meyer Lansky and the Italian Lucky Luciano, they formalised gangs into a business, like organised crime, real money. There was accountants now. There was financing. There was money laundering. This was business now. And Lucky Luciano was running brothels, and Meyer Lansky was stuck into this. And Meyer Lansky was the first one to start going.
All in a second, there's a bunch of politicians who have families and stuff, and they're coming to these brothels. And some of these brothels are gay brothels. So you've got a mayor over there with a wife and kids, and he's actually gay. We could take photographs of him in situations that would literally destroy his life. We can get photographs of that. And then we can go to that judge or that politician. And we can blackmail that person and get them to change legislation. We can get them to not prosecute certain people. We can control these powerful people
because we're providing them with drugs and sex. And Meyer Lansky was the one who introduced that. Then you get to the 1940s. The Irish aren't as involved anymore by the 1940s because the Irish became involved in police, firefighters, unions, and politics. But the Italians and the Jewish are still at it by the 1940s. World War II is kicking off. And now, US Navy intelligence, and this is well documented, it was called Operation Underworld, US Navy intelligence start to draw in the assistance of the Italian gangsters and the Jewish gangsters.
Remember, Italy in World War II was Mussolini, the fascist. So, and the fucking, the mafia were no fan of Mussolini because Mussolini kicked the mafia out. So they, they got Lucky Luciano to help the US military with, I think it was sabotage and stuff over in Italy. And then they had Meyer Lansky with his union connections to act as security, right, for the docks in New York. But then after World War II, the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover with the FBI, who was a fucking prick. Remember I said earlier about Operation Chaos? That was
a J. Edgar Hoover FBI thing. Operation Chaos and COINTELPRO. Now, it's long suspected that J. Edgar Hoover was gay.
And it's also believed that Meyer Lansky had proof of J. Edgar Hoover being gay, had photographs of him with gay sex workers, but also by the 50s and the 60s, the FBI and the CIA were using the sexual blackmail that they had learned from the likes of Meyer Lansky and Lucky Luciano. They were now using this. The CIA had a programme called MKUltra. Now, again, this is incredibly fucked up, but it's, it's, it's part of the public record. This was once conspiracy theory, and now it's kind of out in the open,
and it's just conspiracy. So the CIA, from the 50s to the 70s, were running MKUltra, and they had another project called Operation Midnight Climax, where the CIA, taking techniques from Meyer Lansky and, and the Jewish mafia and the Italian mafia, the CIA were running brothels now. But in these brothels, they had two-way mirrors. And they were, so you'd have middle-class family men turning up to these brothels, then the CIA would emerge from the two-way mirror with photographs and say, we have you now, there's photographs.
And they would dosed these men with LSD without their consent to see if they could control their minds. I know that sounds insane. Look it up. Operation Midnight Climax and Operation MKUltra. Now, go back to New York in its 70s, and a fellow steps in by the name of Roy Cohn. Roy Cohn was a liar, but he was a dirty fucker. Roy Cohn would have had interactions with Meyer Lansky. So he was a liar, but he would use sexual blackmail.
And Roy Cohn, he was, he was a liar for gangsters, okay? So he'd been a liar for Meyer Lansky, he'd been a liar for the Gambino family. He was a fixer. You have these underworld criminals who are like, don't wanna go to jail, wanna keep doing illegal shit. How do you do that? Well, you have a fucking liar and this liar has got sexual blackmail material on senators, politicians, judges. So if a judge comes down on a member of the Gambino family or Meyer Lansky, Roy Cohn steps in and meets the judge and says, here's photographs of you in a brothel. Are you sure you wanna pursue my client? And then it disappears.
Roy Cohn then becomes the mentor and liar of young Donald Trump in the 1970s. He began, Trump at this point is, Trump's dad was rich. It was real estate. Roy Cohn is instrumental to the rise of young Donald Trump in the 1970s through these techniques of extortion and blackmail of people in power, all sexual blackmail. Donald Trump wants to build a building. He can't get money for it or there's legislation in place that he says he doesn't have to do it. Then Roy Cohn gets blackmail on whatever judge or politician is standing in the way and then it happens.
If you wanna see that in detail, there's a fucking brilliant film by the name of, it's called The Apprentice. It came out last year and the actor Jeremy Strong plays Roy Cohn. Jeremy Strong is, is Kendall from Succession. Amazing fucking film. It's about the rise of Donald Trump, young Donald Trump and how Roy Cohn was his mentor. It's incredible. Roy Cohn works with Trump, the seventies, the eighties. And then into the fucking middle of that steps Jeffrey Epstein into that circle. Roy Cohn was definitely working with the FBI, probably the CIA as well.
Those are all kinda tenuous links, but what you see there, you see a thread. Of sexual blackmail, at first with organised crime. Then US intelligence services start to work with organised crime. And you go from Meyer Lansky, Roy Cohn, Trump, Epstein. Somewhere along the way, fucking CIA, Mossad get involved. I'm guessing with Epstein, it's, so he did work with Ghislaine Maxwell's dad, Robert Maxwell. And you can see this in the files and Maxwell, he was a hundred percent Mossad. Most definitely. So what I'm trying to get at with this phone call.
You're looking at organised crime. That's what this is. But we don't call it that because these people are so powerful. You don't fucking call it that, but that's, that's what we're witnessing.
This is organised crime on a grand scale and it appears to be operating above the law. I'm aware this podcast is absolutely insane. You were all asking me to talk about Epstein, so I spoke about it. What was the point of that podcast?
It's for people who feel so confused that, you know, you have no language for what's happening whatsoever. So that tries to add explanation or narrative or story or words to it. I think viewing it in that human way where it's, this is organised crime. This is power. This is about blackmail coercion and the evilness that rises to the top in an evil system. I think that's a much more healthy and helpful way to look at something so terrible. Without needing to resort to interdimensional shapeshifting lizards, illuminati, ritual. Even if there is satanic rituals and shit like that, it doesn't have to mean anything.
It's not supernatural. Ritual can be an initiation. Ritual can be, brainwashing isn't the word, but bringing someone into a club. Like there's some weird shit in the Epstein files. Like there's reports of him wanting Mormon blood.
There's reports of him wanting very specific artefacts from the Muslim faiths and you're just going, what are you at? Ritual doesn't have to be supernatural. Sorry, super supernatural, supernatural. It's used to construct legitimacy. What's an example that you don't bat a fucking eyelid? My voice is going, eyelid? Ritual, it's too late, it's too late. Something you don't bat an eyelid towards would be when fucking King What's-his-face got coronated there over in England. What's, Andrew's brother, fucking Charles. You saw him getting his coronation on TV.
Nuts, but four hours long, all right? Hi. This strange fucking ritual with different gowns and different crowns and songs and music and what you're witnessing there is a ritual. It's not a satanic ritual. They went for a, like the, the English king's coronation ritual is taken from how the pope, how a pope is turned into a pope. When the King of England becomes King of England, what the fuck does that mean? What does it really mean? What it means is, I'm, I'm a fellow called Philip, right? And my great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was
a profoundly violent, profoundly violent psychopath by the name of William the Conqueror a thousand years ago. And all of my ancestors were fucking psychopathic murderers and they murdered and killed everyone, including children, right? And they did this to conquer land. And once they successfully conquered this land and murdered everyone, right? Which we call colonisation. Once they did that, then we all put on silly hats and do these dances and this legitimises our power and God is involved somehow. So that's what a coronation is. It's legitimising something fucking abhorrent.
And the abhorrent thing is colonisation. The fuck do you mean, you're king, you stupid fucking prick? Who the fuck are you? Philip, you gold. These people are your subjects, are they? Are you somehow more than human? That's what that ritual is about. A king? The fuck is that? He's some, he's some cunt called Philip. Who the fuck is he? The ritual of coronation. The ritual. The clothes, the costume, the music, the solemnity of it. It legitimises power, makes things feel okay. So if there's a bunch of ritual involved in any of that crazy mad Epstein shit, even on his fucking island with the temples, it's just that. It's a way to coerce billionaires into depravity, to make them feel this is okay.
They're human beings. They're deeply flawed fucking human beings. And what they're doing is wrong. And it exists in, in this realm. It's not supernatural. The devil isn't involved. All that shit does is it makes it feel untouchable. No, no, no. They're, it's organised crime. They're criminals. Criminals are doing criminal things in an organised crime. And they're very good at it. I don't even know how long this is now. Let me check. Let's say this is a long one. 90 minutes, lads. Fair fucking play to ye. Fair play to ye.
I'm after hitting a vape. I haven't vaped in ages.
The information that I got there in the second half, the connecting it from Meyer Lansky to Roy Cohn to Epstein to Trump. I want to give a shout out to a journalist called Whitney Webb. She did all that research there. And she's done, for years, has been one of the few, one of the few journalists looking at the Epstein shit from like an evidence-based rational point of view and, and framing it as a giant blackmail operation. The Illuminati conspiracy theory shit. All that crazy stuff is a distraction. Interdimensional shapeshifting lizards. That's all a distraction.
And it's unhelpful. These are human beings doing bad things. All right, dog bless. I'll catch you next week. In the meantime, wink at a swan, genuflect to a snail.
We still have a cat.
