Yeah.

0:02

>> So you four months later after all this,

0:06

this was the one where you it got put on

0:08

the schedule that you were going to meet

0:09

with him.

0:09

>> Mhm.

0:10

>> Okay. And you were already at Ford at

0:12

this point.

0:13

>> Yeah. No, it was a Ford model.

0:15

>> Now you're at Ford, so he had made that

0:16

call.

0:17

>> Mhm.

0:18

>> So you you see his name on the schedule,

0:23

you know, you're like, well, I guess I

0:24

got to go. What's your what's your

0:25

initial reaction though? like oh or like

0:29

>> well I just remember calling my agent to

0:31

say like I didn't want to go

0:33

>> and I think well I think she made a call

0:35

to make to probably Katie forward just

0:37

to see but I remember her saying oh I

0:40

have to go you know he has connections

0:41

with secret and things like that so I

0:43

think you need to go and remember at the

0:45

time I didn't know how close the agency

0:48

owner was to Epstein I had no idea they

0:50

were sending each other girls um I just

0:53

thought well that's funny why would I

0:55

have to go see that guy Right.

0:56

>> Um,

0:58

but I went and I I went to that upper

1:01

east side mansion, knocked on that big

1:03

door and walked right in and and

1:07

>> there wasn't like a moment where you're

1:09

like, I'm really about to do this or

1:12

were you just kind of like, they told me

1:13

I have to do this, I'm going to do this?

1:15

Um, of course, there was that thought,

1:18

you know, and I know what happened on

1:21

the island, so I was nervous about it,

1:24

but I just thought, "Oh, well, he helped

1:25

me to get into the agency. They said he

1:27

was great, you know, and she said, "Oh,

1:30

I love Jeffrey, you know, he's a good

1:32

guy." And all that stuff. So, I thought,

1:33

"Okay, he's a good guy now." So, now in

1:35

my head, he did something for me. He's a

1:36

good guy.

1:37

>> And so, I went and met with him and I

1:39

had a really, really great conversation

1:40

with him for about an hour. I talked to

1:42

him about all sorts of things. and you

1:45

know laughed and like you know talked

1:47

about my real goals and ambitions again

1:50

and um gave me

1:52

>> Did he answer the door?

1:53

>> No. No. No.

1:54

>> Someone else answers, right?

1:55

>> No. Like the the butler. The butler

1:58

answered the door.

1:59

>> Juan Allessie.

2:01

>> Probably was Juan.

2:02

>> Okay.

2:02

>> It probably was Juan. If not, I can't

2:05

remember who answered the door the first

2:06

time. It wasn't. It was probably one of

2:07

the maids.

2:08

>> Okay.

2:09

>> But they let you in and they seat you in

2:11

the room until you're ready to go up the

2:12

stairs into his office.

2:13

>> Okay. So, so they take you up, escort

2:15

you to the office, and that's where you

2:16

have this hourlong conversation. What

2:18

the second you walked in there before

2:20

you have this good conversation that I

2:22

do want to hear more about, like

2:24

>> you see him for the first time,

2:27

what's what's the feeling like

2:32

deep breath. Um,

2:37

he made me feel really comfortable right

2:38

off the bat. So um I felt comfortable

2:43

with him I think again like the initial

2:45

meeting um just had like a really good

2:48

conversation with him just about life

2:50

again goals you know um thanked him for

2:55

in introducing me to Katie and becoming

2:58

a Ford model and he asked a lot of

3:01

questions about that and you know what

3:02

kind of events and things I was going

3:04

did I know a lot of models and he

3:07

definitely wanted to know like you you

3:09

know, um, how much Iworked and how many

3:11

people I knew and just how like deep I

3:15

was in the mingling business and knew

3:16

people, which I knew a lot of people

3:17

then. Um, and so I think that was kind

3:20

of exciting for him that I knew a lot of

3:22

other young girls. Um,

3:25

and we just had like a really good I

3:27

just remember a really good conversation

3:29

and he was on the phone with um, a

3:32

really important person and so he made

3:35

it a point to let me know like who he

3:37

was on the phone with. I could hear him

3:39

talking and

3:40

>> and you're not going to say who that

3:42

was.

3:42

>> Well, he was like a billionaire at the

3:44

time and I knew who he was.

3:46

>> It recently came out in the files.

3:49

>> You know, so I heard him talking to him.

3:53

>> Hey guys, three quick things. Number

4:15

>> Um, and then he told me like a little

4:17

secret about him.

4:20

And so he was trying to make me feel

4:21

like really comfortable, you know? Um,

4:24

it's kind of like I was in like one of

4:26

him, one of his people or, you know, he

4:29

was really good. So it was just a really

4:30

good conversation. So,

4:33

>> I thought I thought at the time that

4:35

that was going to be it. I thought that

4:38

was it. So, I kind of like got

4:40

>> You thought you'd never see him again

4:41

after that?

4:41

>> Well, I don't know. I just thought that

4:42

was it. I thought, "Well, that was

4:44

great. Thank you, you know, for

4:45

everything you did for me. Wonderful."

4:46

Like just wanted to get out of there.

4:48

Um, and then I just kind of like got my

4:50

bag and stuff all ready and I tried to

4:52

like get out of there and he just was

4:54

like, "No, where are you going?"

4:58

And then does it clock back like, "Oh

5:00

[ __ ] this is now going to be

5:03

>> he was like, "Let's do a massage."

5:07

>> Just like that.

5:08

>> Mhm.

5:09

>> What goes through your head when he says

5:11

that?

5:12

>> I didn't really have time to think cuz

5:13

he was right out the door to the massage

5:15

room.

5:18

So there goes the next massage. So

5:20

that's when I had the next massage,

5:22

which was exactly like the first one

5:24

without the girl.

5:36

I I can't really. This is one of those

5:38

situations where you want to try to like

5:40

put yourself

5:42

in the shoes of someone like that. And I

5:45

guess I'm happy to say I can't. But like

5:48

I wonder if just the fact that you walk

5:52

through the door considering it was 4

5:54

months later, he had already abused you.

5:56

Now he had you had a job because of him.

6:00

He was put on the schedule and you

6:02

walked on your own valition to his

6:06

place. He was like

6:09

gotcha. Like I I can't think of another

6:12

way to

6:15

is that how you describe it?

6:18

>> The only thing that I know is the fact

6:20

that I saw someone really important. He

6:22

was not allowed to let me out of that

6:23

orbit. I was not allowed to be

6:27

free without me thinking

6:31

he was a good a good guy that I would

6:33

never turn on him or talk about him,

6:36

>> you know? So, I just feel like there was

6:38

a reason why it keeps you in that orbit.

6:40

And so, the massage, whether he was

6:42

getting off on me or not, I think has to

6:44

be done because that's the way of

6:46

keeping you silent again.

6:50

Cuz I don't understand why he wouldn't

6:51

just let me leave. Like why would he

6:53

have to? I mean, we know now that he

6:55

abused that exact way I'm explaining to

6:58

you. Six to eight times a day with with

6:59

different girls. Six to eight times a

7:01

day.

7:01

>> Yeah.

7:02

>> He was jacking off two girls six to

7:04

eight times a day.

7:06

>> And that's what he that's what he liked.

7:09

So,

7:10

um

7:15

I don't really know why he he wanted to

7:17

do those things to me. And I really

7:19

don't know why

7:21

he didn't always do it, but that time he

7:25

definitely

7:27

did. So

7:31

same thing when it was over. Just kind

7:33

of like we're done.

7:34

>> Yeah. Grab your stuff and leave.

7:41

When you walk out of there, is it the

7:44

same kind of

7:46

I don't know, frozen type feeling you

7:48

had the first time? Like just literally

7:50

right over again, or is there anything

7:51

different this time?

7:52

>> Well, it's just confusing because it's

7:54

an actual real massage,

7:56

right? It's not like, let me just pull

7:58

this girl in here and just rape her, you

8:00

know? It's like an actual massage. Like,

8:02

he's really teaching you how to do a

8:04

darn massage. Like, he really needs a

8:05

massage six, eight times a day. And then

8:08

he has to like it's his thing, you know?

8:12

Yeah, but I mean it's that's just like

8:17

it's something entirely different

8:19

though. Like it may start that way,

8:20

okay, but then he's turning that into

8:23

something that's not a massage. It's

8:25

it's pure rape, but you're not there's

8:30

something in your head where you're kind

8:32

of like normalizing the fact, well, it

8:34

is a massage.

8:35

>> No, I would definitely know it was a

8:38

violation of my body. Um, but it just

8:43

I can't even answer to you why.

8:47

Um, didn't I couldn't feel like I could

8:50

leave or scream or do anything,

8:54

you know? I just was just hoping I'd

8:56

never have to see him again. That's

8:57

always what I was hoping I would leave

8:59

and never have to see him again.

9:01

And it's crazy too because you know as a

9:03

as a podcaster too like yourself I've

9:06

interviewed a lot of Larry Nassar

9:07

survivors

9:09

>> and

9:10

my god their abuse is is the exact same

9:14

thing.

9:15

>> Jewish guy who treats them like oh you

9:18

know this is like our little secret you

9:20

know you know I'm helping you out you

9:22

know here's little snacks you know like

9:24

trying to get on their good side while

9:26

he lays them on a table and abuses them

9:28

the same way he's a digital abuser. He

9:29

never had sex with them. He uses fingers

9:31

and tools in their body, you know, and

9:34

they were they were just as confused as

9:35

too. And the Epstein survivors say, "Oh,

9:38

is he doing these creepy massages to

9:39

you?" And the Larry Nassar gymnasts are

9:42

like, "Is he is he is he is he doing the

9:44

same medical procedure to you, too." You

9:47

know, that they can tell is creepy and

9:49

not right, too. But everyone knows it's

9:50

creepy. Everyone knows it's not right.

9:52

Everyone knows he's violating you, but

9:53

nobody says like, "This is an assault.

9:56

This is abuse." Nobody can even say

9:57

those words. I never did. They never

10:00

did. You know, and it's like it's the

10:03

exact same type of abuse they get away

10:05

with because they get off on that. They

10:06

have control over you. Um but nobody

10:10

knows how to identify it. And it's it

10:13

comes with massive confusion.

10:15

>> Yeah.

10:15

>> So when I leave, I'm like confused. The

10:18

guy talked to me for an hour. He's like

10:20

a mentor. He shared little secrets to me

10:22

about soand so. Like

10:24

>> he got me with an agency. Like I I like

10:27

all these things. And then I'm like,

10:29

well, maybe maybe it's not so bad,

10:32

you know, and and

10:35

I would just justify it like, well,

10:37

[ __ ] maybe that's just what we have to

10:38

go through as women, you know,

10:41

you know that we don't have autonomy. We

10:43

don't have we don't have like anything

10:44

over our body to say like, "No, leave me

10:47

alone. Get off me." It's like almost

10:49

really really difficult to say something

10:51

like that when you're in those

10:52

situations. But you're pretty quickly

10:55

like I don't want to say not

10:57

rationalizing, but when you're trying to

10:59

like understand what's going on, you

11:01

that's a thought that's coming in where

11:03

you're like, well, I guess I just don't

11:04

have control.

11:06

>> Exactly. Yeah. I think most of the time

11:08

you feel like when you're groomed, you

11:10

don't have control. I feel like if he

11:12

just dragged me off the street Yeah. I

11:14

think that would fight back and things,

11:15

but I think after you're groomed for an

11:17

hour and then it's a massage and then

11:20

it's the assault, then it's like this

11:23

whole thing of like, wait a second, what

11:24

just happened?

11:26

>> Yeah.

11:26

>> Yeah. And that's his MMO. That's how he

11:29

abused, you know, the majority of these

11:32

girls.

11:34

You know,

11:36

one of the things we don't know a ton

11:37

about to this point, and maybe some

11:40

people out there, if if you've unearthed

11:42

it, you can share evidence in in the

11:45

comments. I'd love to review it. But we

11:48

don't know a hell of a lot about Jeffrey

11:50

Epstein's childhood. We know he grew up

11:52

in Coney Island. He had two parents. He

11:54

had a brother, but

11:56

we don't know of any

11:58

like life experiences he had and stuff

12:01

like that. So if I assumed for a second

12:03

that he was not someone who himself was

12:07

abused a bunch because there are

12:10

prolific abusers out there who weren't

12:11

abused. They just get off on this kind

12:13

of thing and do it. Where do you think

12:16

that

12:18

ability to psychologically manipulate

12:21

people like that comes from?

12:25

>> It's a really good question.

12:29

I would I would think he would have had

12:32

to have learned it from someone. I don't

12:34

know if it's a family member, you know,

12:37

or something you watch on TV. I don't I

12:40

just don't know. I mean, it takes years

12:41

to get to that stage. I don't think it

12:43

just happens overnight,

12:45

>> you know, but probably, you know, a

12:47

little bit here, a little bit there,

12:48

seeing how you can get over people, how

12:51

easy it is to manipulate, and then, you

12:53

know, just working your way up the

12:55

ladder. You can manipulate

12:58

someone at, you know, the high school,

13:00

then you can manipulate someone in

13:02

finance, then you can manipulate someone

13:04

in government, you can manipulate, you

13:06

know, young girls are pretty easy. So,

13:10

um, he used to always say like 25, 26,

13:13

you know, that's when the brains

13:14

developed. So, he never went over 20,

13:17

25, 26,

13:19

>> you know.

13:20

>> Oh, he would say it like that.

13:22

>> Young Yeah. Yeah. girls brain develops

13:25

at 25 26. They would never ever even

13:29

>> because you can't have any it's very

13:30

very difficult to manipulate a woman

13:32

when she's hit 26 years old. They're

13:35

just, you know, have a different way of

13:37

thinking and a worldly view and it's

13:40

harder, you know,

13:41

>> unless you had pre-existing manipulation

13:43

with them.

13:44

>> I mean, you can manipulate anyone at any

13:46

age. You can be 50, 60 and manipulate.

13:48

We see that happen all the time.

13:49

>> I understand. But but it's just easier

13:51

when you're younger obviously because

13:52

it's you know you look up to adults you

13:55

want to believe

13:56

>> you want to believe them and you trust

13:57

them and

13:58

>> and if you're making an assault on you

14:00

look like it's nothing

14:03

>> you know uh

14:06

then sometimes it just becomes like oh

14:07

it's nothing

14:10

>> and in that one-hour conversation he

14:12

really did make you feel like oh he's

14:14

like kind of a mentor

14:15

>> and I was special

14:16

>> flipped you and you were special.

14:20

What

14:23

what about not even necessarily

14:25

something specific with what he said,

14:26

but what about how he was talking with

14:28

you made you feel special?

14:30

>> Well, the fact that I was even able to

14:32

become a Ford model made me feel very

14:34

special. That was very it was super not

14:36

easy to become a Ford model.

14:38

>> Um, you know, I had worked so hard many,

14:41

many years to even get to that stage.

14:43

>> And he's no idiot. He's not sending off

14:45

some girl at random girls to Ford

14:47

Modeling agency. you have to actually be

14:49

able to get signed to that agency. It's

14:53

special enough to sit in front of him

14:54

for that hour, you know, and get the

14:57

best advice in the world. Basically, he

15:00

advises, you know, billionaires and the

15:03

tops of government, and I'm getting the

15:05

best advice,

15:07

you know, really, really good advice. I

15:09

still use to this day.

15:10

>> Like what? just business, you know, I

15:12

was able to form and build businesses

15:16

and um be successful in everything that

15:19

I wanted to do probably from a lot of

15:21

things that he taught me. I mean, he sat

15:23

there and taught me things. It wasn't

15:24

just like surface conversation.

15:27

>> Do you have a not to put you on the

15:29

spot, but do you have like a specific

15:30

example maybe with as it relates to

15:33

running a business or something like

15:34

that that taught you? Um,

15:39

well, I guess I could, but I'll tell you

15:42

something that he used to say to me with

15:44

men.

15:46

He used to cuz he used to send me on

15:48

auditions and when I would come back

15:49

from the audition, I would disappoint

15:51

him like if I didn't do anything with

15:53

the director or I didn't get the part

15:55

and he would say, "Oh, that's just the

15:56

way Hollywood works. You have to just

15:58

um, you know, let the guy think you're

16:00

going to sleep with him. You don't have

16:02

to actually sleep with him, but just you

16:04

know, you know,

16:06

you know, flirt with him a little bit,

16:07

put your hand on your on his knee, you

16:09

know, be a little bit like aggressive,

16:11

but don't have to go there because they

16:13

can't sleep with everybody, you know

16:15

what I mean? So, he would say, "Oh, you

16:16

[ __ ] up." Cuz uh like a lot of times

16:19

he would send me on these auditions and

16:20

he'd want to know every little thing,

16:22

every little thing that happened or was

16:24

said, you know, cuz he wanted to have

16:26

these things on people and how they

16:28

operated and how they were. Were they

16:30

straight up like invite you to dinner

16:32

and then slowly assault you or do they

16:33

straight off assault you? like he wanted

16:35

to know everything. So he would try to

16:37

tell you how to be with a man, but also

16:40

to get ahead like in your career and in

16:42

business and things. So

16:45

um also he would tell me about

16:47

businesses that were coming up that

16:49

women could um

16:52

whatever you were interested in, he

16:53

would tell you, you know, how to

16:55

manipulate those situations to get uh

16:58

your career. Like I had friends that

17:00

were in the art world and friends that

17:01

were wanting to be like TV hosts and

17:04

things like that and he definitely

17:05

showed them how to like manipulate it so

17:07

they could become successful. That's why

17:10

there's many women today who are

17:12

extremely successful who were uh knew

17:16

Epstein when they were younger.

17:18

Does it feel weird that a guy

17:24

so evil

17:27

I don't even really know how to say

17:29

this, but like so evil

17:32

just as like an aside to all the evil

17:34

[ __ ] he did would give people like you

17:37

something that you might actually still

17:39

use to this day.

17:41

>> Yeah. Well, I mean, he was evil.

17:44

>> The people around him were very evil.

17:46

>> Yeah. as you can see in the files. You

17:49

know, there was a lot of evil uh going

17:52

on.

17:53

>> Um I'm not sure if he was giving me evil

17:56

advice. I think it was just like

17:58

business business advice, you know? I I

18:01

don't know. I see it as just business

18:02

advice. I don't think there was anything

18:03

like that was nefarious for me to like

18:06

swindle my way through. But

18:08

>> that's what I was saying. I should have

18:10

said that more clearly. What I'm saying

18:11

is he's an evil guy. He does all this

18:13

evil stuff and that's who he is. And

18:16

then just as a part of his manipulation

18:18

tactics on the periphery, he might

18:20

happen to throw you a bone of a good

18:21

piece of business advice.

18:23

>> He told me if you go for any job, the

18:26

fact that you're a Ford model, you will

18:28

get called in every time. So you make

18:29

your resume, put at the top that you

18:31

were a Ford model, he said every single

18:34

um job that you go for with your resume,

18:37

you'll get called in.

18:38

>> Right.

18:38

>> And it's so funny that it's so funny now

18:41

because I'll look at resumes from people

18:44

that I know knew him. I'll look at their

18:46

resumes that have come up in the files

18:47

and it says they were a Ford model

18:49

>> right at the top.

18:50

>> So he was given this advice out, you

18:53

know,

18:55

so just little things like that, you

18:58

know, that I picked up on, you know,

18:59

that you would listen to from any

19:01

mentor,

19:02

>> right?

19:02

>> You know, it doesn't have to be a mentor

19:03

that's abusing you. A mentor of mentor,

19:05

you know, is giving you life advice

19:07

because he's not going to speak on

19:09

anything but

19:10

>> real things, you know. Um, yeah. I don't

19:14

know if I'm like proud of any of that,

19:16

but I mean, I'm no stupid girl. If I'm

19:17

going to sit there for an hour with

19:19

somebody, I'm going to get like the best

19:21

information, you know, because that was

19:23

the part of making me feel comfortable

19:25

enough for an hour later to do what he

19:27

wants to do.

19:29

>> And also the point you make about

19:30

putting the billionaire on speaker,

19:32

someone you would know,

19:34

>> and like showing you, hey, I can even

19:38

tell you about this guy. You can listen

19:40

in on him. What do you think I can tell?

19:42

It's like psychologically, what do you

19:44

think I can tell about you to other

19:45

people?

19:45

>> And you know what's so crazy too? In the

19:47

files, some of the sneak secrets that he

19:49

told me, I I could see it's like

19:51

validation.

19:52

>> Yes.

19:52

>> In the files, it's like, okay, wow, that

19:54

was true and that was true. I don't

19:56

believe there was anything that man said

19:57

to me that wasn't true.

19:59

>> Anything?

20:00

>> No. I I really don't believe he was

20:02

bullshitting on anything. I think almost

20:05

everything I think everything he said

20:07

was true.

20:09

Yeah. I don't really see why he had a

20:11

lie. I mean, the manipulation, but the

20:13

manipulation wasn't in the lies. And the

20:14

manipulation was just like he always

20:17

came through on what he said he would do

20:19

for you.

20:20

>> I have girlfriends that went through

20:21

four years of university through him,

20:24

>> you know, got their jobs through him,

20:26

things like that.

20:27

>> So, he would keep his promises and stuff

20:29

like that.

20:30

>> Cuz he can.

20:31

>> Cuz he can.

20:32

>> Yeah. He's not like, let's take let's

20:33

take like the the mediocre

20:36

pedophiles and predators out there. They

20:38

they give you pro false promises, right?

20:40

and they get you in and then they can't

20:42

keep you much longer because they're

20:43

always false promises because they have

20:44

no leverage and no power. This man had

20:46

all the power in the world, you know, to

20:48

get what he wanted. That's why he could

20:50

get these beautiful young women and,

20:53

>> you know, and make all these things

20:54

happen for them. And then, you know, the

20:56

leverage of the underage girls in

20:58

Florida, I mean, what was their

20:59

leverage? They're in high school, so

21:01

it's just money, you know, for their

21:02

family. $200 or $300 for their family

21:05

goes a really long way.

21:06

>> And he would go after poor girls around

21:09

there, too. Yeah. Who had parents that

21:10

were in jail or drug addicted parents. I

21:12

know a lot of them,

21:14

>> you know, and they have like major

21:17

trauma from all this

21:19

>> horrific trauma.

21:20

>> No, I mean, I can't even

21:25

>> I think the trauma comes worse for most

21:28

girls when it had to do with Gain

21:30

because it was a woman.

21:31

>> Oh, cuz it was just cuz it was a woman.

21:33

>> Well, because kind of you can expect,

21:35

you know, someone like Jeffrey Epstein

21:36

to abuse you. You're he's older man.

21:38

What else does he want you around for?

21:40

But the older woman, like, what is she

21:42

doing? Why is she pulling in young

21:44

girls? Why are you doing that to young

21:46

girls?

21:47

>> Not many women do that.

21:50

>> You kind of have to be a monster

21:52

>> to go.

21:53

>> She's a monster.

21:53

>> Yeah. To go looking for hundreds of

21:55

girls and then, you know, giving it to

21:57

him, giving giving you over to him and

21:59

then also participating,

22:01

>> you know.

22:02

>> Yes. There's a big difference, as I

22:04

said, than a Sarah Cullen, in my

22:06

opinion. Someone who's probably in her

22:08

20s, who was abused, you know, who turns

22:11

and maybe made wrong choices. Of course,

22:14

she made wrong choices, but Galin is on

22:17

a whole different level.

22:19

>> Yes.

22:20

>> You know.

22:22

>> Yeah. And it's, you know, it's also all

22:25

the people around though cuz it's a

22:27

similar type of psychological question

22:29

to ask like what I asked with Sarah, but

22:33

did you ever hear the two podcast series

22:35

that Tara Pel Mary did back in 2020?

22:38

>> One was like the Maxwells, the other one

22:40

was Epstein.

22:41

>> So Virginia went around with her.

22:43

>> Yeah. And in one of the podcast series,

22:47

it's literally like a documentary just

22:49

recorded, but they go to usually the

22:52

gated communities of different people

22:54

who were associated with Jeffrey Epstein

22:56

and say, "Hey, it's Virginia Robert

22:58

Shuay with you remember me and I'm with

23:01

this reporter tower pulary. Can we come

23:02

in?" And a lot of people wouldn't let

23:04

them in.

23:04

>> Yeah.

23:05

>> Like the chef Adam Perry Lang was like,

23:07

"Oh, I remember you Virginia through an

23:08

emissary, but I can't meet with you." M

23:11

>> the guy Wana Allessie let them in.

23:14

>> Mhm. The driver

23:16

>> the I guess he was like the housekeeper.

23:19

>> I I it's been a while. People go I I

23:22

actually do need to go listen to that

23:23

podcast again because I cited a lot. So

23:25

I I will do that after this. But

23:28

>> he not only let them in, he agreed to

23:31

let Tara record it.

23:33

>> Mhm. And I always say it's one of the

23:36

most difficult things to listen to from

23:38

like a human perspective because you

23:40

feel a million emotions for this guy.

23:42

>> You feel anger that he didn't say

23:44

anything.

23:45

>> You feel

23:47

>> empathy for the fact that he was

23:50

>> an immigrant who signed this crazy NDA

23:53

with these powerful people and then felt

23:56

pressured to not say anything. You feel

24:00

weird that he's sitting with Virginia,

24:02

who he clearly not only remembered and

24:04

knew, but liked a lot

24:06

>> and viewed her as a real person,

24:09

>> and yet you're angry at him because he

24:12

turned a blind eye

24:14

>> to this stuff. I mean, there's so much

24:16

going on.

24:17

>> Yeah, but what power did he have to say

24:18

anything back then?

24:19

>> That's my question. It's like

24:21

>> wound up dead or like nobody would have

24:22

believed him.

24:23

>> That's what I wanted to ask.

24:24

>> And nobody nobody listened to to anyone

24:27

back then. Yeah. So when you look at

24:30

people like that, the gardeners, the

24:32

housekeepers, the people that were

24:34

around him working on like the staff,

24:36

you kind of look at it like,

24:39

and correct me if I'm wrong here. What

24:41

were they going to do?

24:43

>> What could they do?

24:44

>> I feel bad for them because I'm sure

24:46

they have a lot of guilt and shame about

24:47

it. I'm sure they do.

24:48

>> Yes.

24:49

>> I'm sure they are seeing, you know,

24:50

eight girls a day at a house, young

24:53

girls coming in and out the doors. I

24:54

think they're they're not stupid to know

24:56

what's going on. They have to clean up

24:58

like dildos and things out of his room.

25:00

They know what's going on.

25:01

>> Yeah.

25:02

>> But they have no power to say anything,

25:05

>> you know. I mean, obviously, we wish

25:07

they would have. I wish there was some

25:09

FBI files that says they made um a

25:12

report or something, but it wouldn't

25:14

have done anything. They had reports

25:16

from hundreds of girls,

25:19

>> you know.

25:19

>> You see this latest video of the other

25:22

butler that they interviewed

25:24

>> in '09? I still have to look at this all

25:27

the way,

25:28

>> but like they it's on tape

25:30

>> and he was telling him like what was

25:32

going on. I think they arrested him

25:34

>> recently.

25:35

>> Yeah. No, it's from the files. Steve,

25:37

can we pull it up on Twitter? Epstein

25:38

Butler.

25:39

>> I want to make sure I get it right. This

25:41

was like just coming out.

25:42

>> Oh, that was coming out in the files.

25:43

Oh, okay. Good.

25:44

>> Yes. In the FBI.

25:46

>> It's on It's in like a gray tape. If we

25:49

can find Yep, that's it.

25:50

>> Can we pull this up on the screen and

25:52

see what what's what? So this is

25:56

this is a a formerly secret video of

25:58

Jeffrey Epstein's butler trying to sell

26:00

a copy of Epstein's little black book.

26:02

So I guess it was like

26:03

>> Yeah. And then he got in trouble for it.

26:05

Why is he doing time, you know?

26:09

>> Oh, I'm not laughing cuz it's funny. I'm

26:11

laughing.

26:11

>> Yeah. No, I saw I saw this one and then

26:13

he gets in trouble for it.

26:17

>> That's insane.

26:20

Is this

26:22

I haven't had the words for it that he

26:23

goes to jail for that and not the actual

26:25

people that were doing things.

26:28

>> Yeah.

26:29

>> Well, you know the famous line from the

26:32

'08 case, Alex Aosta, who later became

26:36

labor secretary, he I was told he

26:38

belongs to intelligence.

26:41

>> He was told that Jeffrey belongs to

26:43

intelligence. Yeah. Yeah. That's what he

26:44

was told.

26:45

>> So, and that means hands off.

26:48

Yeah,

26:51

>> that would explain the 80 cameras in

26:53

every room.

26:54

>> But just because you belong to

26:55

intelligence doesn't mean you have the

26:56

right to like abuse all these girls.

26:58

>> It's insane.

26:58

>> It's like it's like this godlike thing.

27:01

I can do whatever I want to do. And

27:02

because

27:03

>> you know I have immunity and nothing's

27:05

ever going to happen to me, you know?

27:06

>> Yeah. Like that's the thing that guy

27:08

Alex Aosta has daughters. I believe we

27:10

can check that.

27:11

>> So many of them have daughters.

27:12

>> I know. Exactly. But like

27:14

>> but I think so many of their their hands

27:16

are tied. They can't even do anything.

27:17

That's the problem.

27:19

>> He's running that whole case though.

27:21

It's like

27:23

I don't know.

27:24

>> I don't know either. Um I think there's

27:27

just some

27:29

crazy amount of evidence out there. So

27:31

>> Mhm. Lisa, real quick, I just have to go

27:34

to the bathroom and then we'll come

27:35

right back. Okay.

27:36

>> All right. We'll be right back.

27:38

>> All right. We're back. So,

27:41

God, I have so many questions here, but

27:43

I we did get off from the second half of

27:48

like after you left the second time from

27:51

from his place and you were going back

27:53

like where did you go back to that day?

27:55

You said you had a full day scheduled

27:56

out for you. Did you go back to the

27:58

agency right away or do you not

28:00

remember?

28:01

>> I don't know.

28:05

similar kind of like have to

28:07

compartmentalize it though again.

28:09

>> I don't have no idea. I mean I've not

28:11

even thought about where I went after

28:12

that.

28:16

>> When was the next time you saw him?

28:22

>> So during those years like I would

28:24

travel a lot for work. So um I always

28:27

had the excuse of like not being um

28:30

available as much and I tried to avoid

28:32

him as much as I could. So there was

28:34

there was a few times that I saw him

28:38

over the next couple years.

28:40

Um, and it was pretty much the exact

28:43

same thing I I described in the second

28:46

scenario, the second time I went there.

28:49

>> So he'd talk to you for a while, somehow

28:51

make you feel good again.

28:53

>> Yeah. And then then the massage, it

28:55

didn't happen every time, but it

28:56

happened most of the time. Um, and then

28:59

from there it was mostly just

29:02

uh

29:04

I don't think his thing was to have me

29:06

do these massages. I think it was more

29:08

so I have an audition and he would send

29:10

me on a plane to go to Los Angeles for

29:12

an audition and that person uh a big

29:16

director was in the vials. So, and then

29:19

I found out many years later that other

29:20

girls were sent to that same director.

29:23

So, it was things like that. And then

29:25

there was an episode where he told me to

29:27

go to uh it was after a movie premiere

29:30

and I went to a like a Hollywood

29:32

afterparty

29:34

um after premiere party and the owner of

29:37

the Ford Mauling agency was also there

29:38

with some girls and then uh there was

29:42

this like celebrity that was like all

29:43

over me and I you know kept saying like

29:45

get away from me. He was way way way

29:47

older than me um and like gross or cod

29:51

or whatever and I was just like leave me

29:52

alone. Um, and I was complaining to um

29:56

my bookers and stuff from the Ford

29:58

agency, you know, that this guy was

29:59

bothering me. Um, and then I just we we

30:03

left, you know, that restaurant and we

30:05

went to a couple other parties and then

30:07

I found myself with, you know, Katie

30:10

Ford and some other models back at this

30:13

actor's house at his suite at his hotel

30:15

in the Upper East Side. Um,

30:19

and I was in there for a few minutes and

30:21

then they left. I was in the bathroom

30:23

and I was there left alone and then from

30:27

there um I was assaulted by that big

30:30

that celebrity very well-known celebrity

30:34

in that room. So I at that time I had

30:37

just thought well like dumb luck you

30:39

know on my part that it ended up that

30:41

way. But I ended up finding out years

30:44

later through like now we're 2020 and

30:47

I'm deposed for cases and I'm telling

30:49

stories of what happened to me and my

30:52

attorneys are like, "Oh, you've been

30:53

trafficked." And then they're like, "Who

30:55

did what?" You know, and then all this

30:58

stuff started coming out. Um,

31:00

and um, I found out during that time

31:04

that

31:06

um, that Katie Ford had been in on

31:09

things with Epstein and that she Epstein

31:12

had sent me to her, but she was sending

31:15

girls to him. And so I just started

31:17

getting really upset about it because,

31:19

you know, here I am thinking I worked my

31:21

way, you know, and becoming a Ford

31:23

model. And now to find out, you know,

31:26

there was some ne nefarious, you know,

31:29

ways of me becoming a model had to do

31:31

with this these agency owners. And then

31:33

they were like in cahoots with like

31:35

bringing these young girls to parties

31:37

around these older men and kind of like

31:39

pushing you off to these men while you

31:41

just think that you're special and just

31:43

hanging out with these people, you know.

31:46

Um, and there was a much darker reason

31:49

why they were bringing you around to

31:50

these places. And so that was that was

31:53

really hard for me to to like comprehend

31:57

and

31:58

know that that's what what was really

32:00

going on

32:04

in those early years when you're a Ford

32:07

model and this stuff is intermittently

32:09

happening.

32:12

You know, you had said you'd always

32:13

wanted to be a model and everything like

32:14

that.

32:16

Were you able to ever have fun doing

32:17

your job too or was the joy taken away?

32:21

>> No, I did of course like I loved I mean

32:23

we would travel on shoots to exotic

32:25

locations, different countries, you

32:28

know. I really enjoyed the actual job of

32:30

modeling. Um I mean it was pretty

32:32

strenuous. I wake up really early. You

32:33

have to take really good care of your

32:34

skin and your body. I mean it was around

32:37

really creative people, you know. Um, I

32:41

love the artistic expression of it, but

32:43

you know, there was all sorts of things

32:45

going on where you were constantly

32:47

around these creepy men who, you know,

32:50

predatory men. And, um, also finding out

32:53

that a lot of the women were involved

32:56

never really sat right with me. It never

32:58

does when these older women are putting

32:59

you, you know, around these older men.

33:02

Um,

33:04

>> basically, it's basically trafficking

33:05

you to these men without without you

33:08

even knowing it. Absolutely.

33:09

>> And I feel bad for a lot of these girls

33:11

who are just trying to live out their

33:12

dreams, you know, like I was and uh put

33:15

in these situations where they never

33:18

really should have been in. So that

33:20

episode was really weird. Um didn't find

33:24

out what was really going on with that

33:26

until just two years ago.

33:28

>> Um

33:30

there was also agents who,

33:34

you know, weird things were going on. So

33:36

these model agencies not only were

33:38

sending girls to Epstein, they were also

33:40

bringing you to these parties around

33:42

other older men and they were also um in

33:47

with a lot of politicians and like

33:49

senators and things like that.

33:50

>> So you would see those people there.

33:53

>> So I'll tell you about this this I don't

33:55

think I've ever brought this up had time

33:56

to really tell this story, but so now

33:58

I'm a Ford model, you know, feeling

34:00

good, you know, living the life, having

34:03

a a great career. I would go out often

34:06

with Katie Ford and her husband Andre

34:07

Balos. Now, Andre was very handsome and

34:10

charming. Um, and the girls didn't

34:12

really mind him being around um because

34:14

he just, you know, he was very

34:16

good-looking. Uh, but it was always this

34:19

thing of like it's kind of weird like

34:20

she's with this guy, you know, and then

34:23

we would start seeing him around a lot

34:26

with whenever she wasn't around. There

34:28

would be Uma was around, you know, with

34:31

Herman, the actress. I think he later

34:33

married. Um, so there was these things

34:36

that were just right in your face.

34:38

>> Um, that didn't really make sense why

34:40

these adults who were married were

34:43

>> right

34:43

>> having their mistress or or whoever

34:45

right in front of you. There was just

34:46

weird things like that. So, one day I'm

34:49

at the agency and one of my bookers and

34:52

Katie was there and some of the old the

34:54

other agents were there and we're like,

34:56

you know, we had a guy in the other day

34:57

who was like checking out comp cards and

35:00

was like, "Oo, who's Lisa Phillips?"

35:02

like she's really cute and they were

35:04

like um he's a really important person

35:07

and you know we think you should go on a

35:09

blind date with him and so I was just

35:10

like are you serious like I've never

35:12

gone on a blind date and they were like

35:14

yeah you know you should go out with

35:15

this guy and I was just like okay

35:17

whatever and so you know they organized

35:20

this blind date for me and so I remember

35:23

being with my girlfriends by this time I

35:25

lived in the Upper East Side and um I

35:27

had got ready uh for this date and they

35:30

had told me to wear like a really nice

35:31

dressed cuz we were going to a really

35:33

nice dinner party. And so they had their

35:35

hand in all of this for the date. And so

35:37

I didn't think anything of it because I

35:39

just thought, "Oh, it's going to be some

35:40

young hot guy. It'd be fun,

35:43

you know, so like stupid back then, you

35:45

know, like who who thinks about this

35:47

kind of stuff." And so, um, you just

35:50

trust your agency. And so I get all

35:53

ready. I'm in this like pretty dress.

35:54

And then I I go running out. I remember

35:56

it was a Range Rover. And I go to open

35:58

the door and I'm like,

36:01

"Are we picking up your grandson?"

36:04

And he's like, "No." I'm like, "Your

36:07

son?" And he's like, "No." And I'm like,

36:09

"I'm going out with you." And he was

36:11

like, "Yeah, like get in. It'll be fine.

36:14

Just get in. You know, I know." And he

36:16

names the Bookers and stuff like that.

36:17

I'm like, "Are you serious?" Like, I

36:19

just couldn't believe it because the guy

36:21

looks so old.

36:22

>> Yeah.

36:23

>> Like like a gr my grandfather white

36:25

hair. He was old and I was like I didn't

36:28

understand it. So I get in the car, you

36:31

know, and he ends up being actually

36:33

really nice. He's a state senator.

36:35

>> Oh, they always are, right?

36:38

>> He's a senator. So I'm just like, okay,

36:41

this man takes me around the corner,

36:43

Upper East Side near Madison and 70s

36:46

something around the corner from

36:48

Epstein's house. We go into this house

36:52

up into an elevator into this this

36:56

beautiful dining area and where he seats

36:59

me down for dinner and I'm sitting next

37:01

to Al Gore and Tippy and I'm just like

37:06

this is year this is the year 2000 2001

37:08

and I'm just like huh and I remember

37:12

like you know I'm I'm pretty c cultured

37:15

and whatever and you know talking about

37:16

art and politics I have no idea what

37:18

these people are talking about. And I

37:21

remember after the dinner, you know, so

37:22

I just hold my own. After the dinner, I

37:24

was like, "Why did you bring me to this

37:27

dinner?" I was like, "Aren't you

37:28

embarrassed to be there with me? You

37:30

know, you're so much older than me." He

37:32

was like, "No, this no big deal." And

37:34

I'm like, "Are you serious?" And I

37:37

remember asking him like, I had no idea

37:38

what they were saying the whole time.

37:40

And he was like, "Oh, if you just read

37:41

the New York Times every day, you'll

37:42

understand everything, you know?" And I

37:45

was just like, "This is just the

37:47

weirdest world."

37:49

Um, and then he dropped me off at the at

37:52

my house and I remember running upstairs

37:53

and telling my girlfriends like, "You

37:55

won't believe what just happened." I was

37:56

like, "The

37:57

>> So, we just did dinner."

37:58

>> Yeah, it was just dinner. It was really

38:00

nothing. Um, dropped me off. Granted, I

38:03

never went back out with him again

38:04

because now that I know how it works,

38:06

probably would have been abused at some

38:08

point, but I didn't. I never went back

38:09

out with that guy cuz I just thought,

38:10

"How weird is that?" And I remember

38:12

going back to my agency like the next

38:14

day or whenever I went in there and

38:16

being like, "You know, you hooked me up

38:17

with a like a 70-year-old man

38:20

>> who was sitting next to the dude who I'm

38:22

guessing by the timeline had just lost

38:24

the most contentious presidential

38:26

election ever,

38:28

just casually."

38:30

>> And why would you bring someone like me,

38:33

you know, someone so young with you to

38:36

such an important dinner with all like

38:39

political people there? you know, the

38:41

the climate, everyone that was around.

38:43

Why would you be so like candid not to

38:46

think like that's kind of I even said to

38:48

him, "Aren't you embarrassed of me to be

38:51

there with you?" You know, there's

38:53

probably like a 50y old I mean a 50 age

38:57

gap here. It was just nothing. Now I

39:00

understand that why it's nothing, you

39:02

know, but uh back then I just was like,

39:04

"You guys are weird."

39:07

And that was my model agency that put me

39:10

on a blind date with this guy knowing

39:12

full well and didn't even say to me,

39:14

"Look, he's going to be a little older

39:15

than you, you know, didn't even like say

39:18

anything to me." That's how much like

39:20

they just like use and abuse you, you

39:22

know, just you're like a little pawn in

39:24

their whole little game, you know? They

39:26

just don't really give a [ __ ] They

39:28

probably wouldn't have cared if I was

39:29

assaulted by that guy that night.

39:30

>> No, I don't think they would have. Yeah,

39:32

>> I think that's probably part of the

39:34

expectation

39:35

that you were having enough fun doing

39:39

the job of modeling and as you said

39:41

having these other experiences around

39:43

the world and whatever that you were

39:45

able to kind of separate those two. But

39:48

as someone who spent yours as a model

39:50

and then spent a lot of years working in

39:52

the industry as a modeling scout, like

39:54

looking back on it now and knowing what

39:56

you know, are you kind of like this is

39:58

such a gross industry? Yeah, I mean this

40:01

was Yeah, I mean that's the reason why I

40:03

tapped out about two years ago. I was

40:05

like done.

40:07

>> What was the breaking point?

40:08

>> Well, I mean all this stuff was coming

40:10

up and I had been through these

40:11

depositions uh with Virginia G. Frey. I

40:14

was deposed for her case and with JP

40:16

Morgan I found out lots of information.

40:18

>> Um

40:19

>> bookmark that. We'll come back.

40:21

>> Yeah. just so many things and I was just

40:23

like also sitting in the offices at one

40:25

of the most prestigious agencies in the

40:27

world and still having girls and boys

40:30

come in saying, you know, this person

40:31

touched me and this person like tried to

40:33

hit on me and this person assaulted me.

40:34

I'm like still

40:38

like this is still going on. Um where

40:41

where's the protection,

40:43

you know? And I just was getting fed up

40:45

of it. So, I really decided right in

40:47

that moment like I'm getting out of this

40:49

business and I'm going to go right into

40:51

podcasting because that's the thing to

40:52

go into right now. I'm going to start a

40:53

podcast and I'm going to talk to

40:55

survivors. I'm a survivor. I'm going to

40:57

start telling my story and I'm going to

40:59

listen to survivor stories. Um, and I

41:03

just ended up just doing it very quickly

41:05

about about two years ago. I just went

41:06

right into it and started doing it.

41:08

>> Good for you.

41:09

>> Yeah.

41:10

>> Oh, I also have to hook you up with

41:11

Sarah Edmonson as well. And I had her in

41:14

here. She was really her story was

41:16

really amazing too. You guys would do a

41:18

great podcast together.

41:19

>> Yeah.

41:19

>> But do you know

41:22

I think unfortunately

41:24

when you now see something so blatantly

41:28

made in the open and people not going to

41:30

prison.

41:32

You know, you ask yourself, "Wow, this

41:34

stuff's still happening. Why?" Well,

41:35

here's why.

41:37

>> Because other people look at it and they

41:39

go, "Well, look, even those guys don't

41:41

go to prison. They were doing cannibal

41:43

shit."

41:44

Exactly. That's why someone like Pam

41:46

Bondi had the responsibility to at least

41:48

acknowledge people who have been

41:50

assaulted.

41:52

Acknowledge them. The fact that you

41:54

don't even acknowledge him just spreads

41:56

like wild fire throughout all survivors

42:00

everywhere.

42:02

>> Don't speak up.

42:03

>> Yeah. And she's a woman.

42:04

>> You're not going to get anywhere.

42:06

>> She's a woman, too. That's really like

42:08

double. You don't have you have no idea

42:11

how many people in the modeling business

42:15

have been abused. I mean most models

42:17

will be like me two times, six times, 10

42:20

times. It happens so much, you know,

42:23

with young ambitious women, not just

42:25

modeling, entertainment world,

42:27

>> music world is even worse. Um, you know,

42:30

but anyone who's working their way up

42:32

the ladder to, you know, have a

42:34

successful career,

42:37

>> you know,

42:37

>> yes,

42:38

>> stuff happens.

42:39

>> Goes right back to the manipulation he

42:41

did in the first conversation where he

42:42

said he asked you about your dreams,

42:43

your family, and

42:45

>> all the all the good stuff.

42:47

>> You're talking about the most preeminent

42:50

industry examples of places where that

42:52

is what they sell. When you talk

42:54

modeling, when you talk entertainment,

42:56

when you talk Hollywood, it's like only

42:58

a select few make it. You really want

43:00

it, right? How bad do you want it?

43:03

>> Mhm.

43:03

>> And they pray on that.

43:05

>> Yeah. And unfortunately, that's how a

43:07

lot of the sex trafficking rings today.

43:10

That's the foundation of them.

43:11

>> Yeah.

43:12

>> You know, they they pray on those dreams

43:14

and that's how they say, "Oh, well, come

43:16

to Vegas. Come to Vegas." And then we're

43:18

going to introduce you to the right

43:19

people, whether it's a music business or

43:21

whatever. and they come to Vegas and

43:22

then they're right into the trafficking

43:24

ring.

43:25

>> How How did you You said you got married

43:27

in ' 06.

43:28

>> Yes. Mhm.

43:29

>> How did you meet your husband?

43:31

>> Do we really have to go into that?

43:32

>> You don't have to. No. No. Sorry if

43:34

that's not something

43:35

>> We're divorced.

43:37

>> Your ex-husband. Sorry.

43:38

>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um

43:41

I mean I mean I was in Malibu.

43:46

>> It's a nice place. We don't have to talk

43:48

about that. I had a beautiful, you know,

43:50

I just it wasn't

43:53

>> I didn't I hadn't I hadn't um confronted

43:58

>> um my trauma. I hadn't gone through

44:00

therapy and stuff. So, I brought a lot

44:02

of that into the relationship, chose

44:04

someone who

44:06

>> um didn't end up being a very good

44:09

relationship for me. And so, um I ended

44:13

up raising my children all by myself.

44:16

>> Wow.

44:16

>> Yeah. I ended up leaving Yeah. I ended

44:18

up leaving him and moving to New York

44:20

again in in 2011 with two two young boys

44:23

and um just realizing I have to do it

44:26

all myself. Ended up going kind of back

44:28

into the modeling world and many of the

44:30

people that I knew helped me out and I

44:31

started a scouting agency um and

44:34

protecting models uh finding models and

44:37

managing them and placing them with big

44:38

agencies. So I was pretty successful

44:40

working in that business and I had two

44:42

little babies at the time and

44:44

>> and then found out a few months later

44:45

that I was pregnant. Um

44:48

and um that was really difficult for me

44:51

because I already had two young babies

44:53

by myself and and realized now I was

44:57

pregnant same father but

45:00

>> didn't even know I hadn't even shown or

45:02

anything you know and I was three and a

45:03

half months pregnant.

45:05

>> So I ended up raising three boys three

45:07

young boys on my own.

45:09

>> That's amazing though that you did that.

45:11

>> Yeah. I can tell you through my 30s,

45:14

entirely through my 30s, never was in

45:16

any relationship. I raised my boys early

45:20

from my 30s to to till I was 40 years

45:22

old. Raised my kids all on my own. It

45:25

was the best years of my life, but the

45:26

hardest years of my life, you know, here

45:28

in in New York City. Yeah.

45:30

>> Yeah.

45:31

>> It wasn't until 2017 I moved with my

45:33

kids. I I always promised my kids like,

45:36

"Mommy is going to make it. she's going

45:38

to take care of you and we're going to

45:39

move to Los Angeles and we're going to

45:40

have a view of the ocean and we're going

45:43

to have like the best life. And in 2017,

45:45

I made that dream come true for them and

45:47

moved them to Laguna Beach.

45:48

>> Oh, it's awesome.

45:49

>> Yeah. Yeah.

45:51

>> A little different than New York City.

45:52

>> Yeah. I just wanted to be near the ocean

45:54

and, you know, have little surfer babies

45:56

and have that beautiful California life.

45:59

And so, you know, I was able to give

46:01

that to them, you know. Um, yeah. But it

46:04

wasn't until I was 40 when I started

46:06

dating again. my kids were a little

46:08

older.

46:09

>> So when you're when you're raising them

46:11

on your own for all these years though,

46:13

like you said, you weren't confronting

46:15

what had happened to you and everything.

46:17

Did it change obviously like you're you

46:21

were you revolved your whole life around

46:24

your kids and and made unbelievable

46:25

sacrifices for that and are clearly a

46:27

great mom. Did it change at all how you

46:31

look at your kids from like a protective

46:33

mother standpoint once you went back and

46:35

thought about the things that had

46:37

happened to you and then kind of looked

46:38

at them like oh my god

46:40

>> oh yeah I'm very protective mom but I

46:42

mean I want have I want to have

46:44

independent children you know and I want

46:46

them to think for themselves and do

46:48

whatever they want to do in their lives

46:49

and I will always support them 100% but

46:52

I'm very protective of them um

46:55

I mean as any parent should

46:58

Um but though through those years it was

47:00

just them and and me you know it was

47:03

really really beautiful. So um I didn't

47:06

have any relationships and I didn't want

47:08

to you know I had a failed marriage. I

47:11

just chose really the wrong person for

47:12

myself. We had nothing in common.

47:15

>> He was Norwegian descent and you know

47:17

didn't really bond with them and

47:20

basically kind of gave them up in a way.

47:22

And so, you know, I was in survival

47:25

mode, I think, through my 30s. Yeah.

47:27

>> Building a business and basically in

47:29

survival mode, just all by myself,

47:31

>> living in New York City, which is not

47:33

cheap.

47:34

>> Um, you know, and really did it all on

47:36

my own. And it took me about two or

47:38

three years. And I, you know, had a

47:41

successful business and I managed tons

47:42

of models and and um really enjoyed it.

47:46

and then was offered a position, you

47:48

know, at women management and the

47:50

industry industry models to be the head

47:53

scout. And then I started traveling

47:55

around the world again um as a a scout

47:58

for a Japanese agency and that's when I

47:59

started going to all these countries and

48:02

>> and you know doing the big scouting

48:04

work.

48:04

>> You get to take your kids with you

48:06

>> uh for some but but not really. They

48:07

were young.

48:08

>> Yeah.

48:09

>> Um thank God for my mother-in-law. She

48:12

she would come and stay with the kids

48:13

and stuff. Thank God for her. I would

48:15

never have been able to have, you know,

48:18

the career that I had without my

48:19

in-laws, you know, taking care of the

48:20

kids.

48:21

>> Oh, so they're great. They stayed in in

48:23

your life.

48:24

>> Yeah. I was Yeah. I mean, um, wasn't so

48:27

great in the beginning, you know, when I

48:28

left their son, but, you know, after a

48:30

while, they they love their grandkids

48:32

and they were there for them. And

48:34

>> anytime I would leave for, you know, a

48:35

week at a time to take care of business

48:38

and travel the world, you know, for my

48:40

job, they would take care of the kids

48:42

and I was so grateful for them. Yeah.

48:44

That's cool.

48:44

>> Yeah.

48:44

>> Yeah. I didn't mean to step into

48:46

something personal there with with your

48:47

husband. The the only reason I was

48:49

asking

48:49

>> I just never ever talk about him. So

48:51

>> yeah, that absolutely fine with me. The

48:53

the the only reason I was asking about

48:55

that in general was because I was trying

48:58

to figure out what you know mentally got

49:01

you to a place to be able to trust

49:03

someone enough to date them seriously

49:05

and then marry them in the short years

49:08

after

49:09

you know you're being abused by Jeffrey.

49:12

Like you said, the last time you saw

49:13

Jeffrey was 04. Is that right?

49:15

>> Yeah. And I and I left straight to Los

49:17

Angeles. I was an actress. I had, you

49:19

know, one of the best managers and

49:20

talent agencies. I was auditioning,

49:23

you know, um, you know, I I I loved I

49:26

loved being actress and a model. I

49:28

really really loved it. I just never

49:30

really liked, you know, what I was

49:32

really up against,

49:33

>> right?

49:34

>> Which was, you know, it's a nefarious

49:35

business. It's it's not a very upfront

49:38

and honest business. um there's a lot of

49:41

people that just want to take advantage

49:42

of you and I could clearly see that. Um

49:45

because of the level where I was what I

49:47

was working at and the friends that I

49:48

knew um I could clearly see what was

49:51

going on and I didn't like it and so you

49:54

know my husband you know he was

49:55

Norwegian descent um and it was a sweet

49:58

man and he was in commercial real estate

50:01

and I really believed in him and I

50:03

really thought I was you know going to

50:05

marry him. I mean, let's face it, I was

50:07

pregnant, but I I was trying to make

50:09

things work with him. You know, I really

50:11

wanted things to work and and be with

50:12

him, but um you know, found out very

50:16

quickly that, you know, wasn't going to

50:18

be a really good relationship. So, it

50:19

wasn't really my choice, you know, not

50:20

to be with the father of my kids, but it

50:23

just um was just, you know, the way it

50:27

happened.

50:28

>> Yeah. Now, you had talked about like

50:32

over these years you see Jeffrey very

50:34

intermittently and sometimes there's

50:37

abuse, other times there weren't. Would

50:40

would there be something like in a time

50:42

where you went and talked with him and

50:44

had a conversation where it didn't end

50:46

in abuse? Would it be because it's in a

50:48

public place or something like that? Is

50:49

that the only reason it wouldn't happen

50:51

or

50:52

>> I think the only reason why it didn't

50:53

happen was because there was someone

50:54

else there that he could abuse. Oh.

50:59

Like for instance, I was brought to his

51:01

house for a couple parties. He would

51:03

call me like, "Oh, I'm out with my

51:04

friends. I'll bring your friends." You

51:06

know, that kind of thing. And just

51:07

naively just being, "Okay." Like

51:09

thinking it's another like party to go

51:10

to.

51:11

>> Um but then you'd walk in and you go up

51:13

until like the the I guess it was the

51:16

the li the library with a big table and

51:19

there was just all these old men sitting

51:21

around like these nerdy old men. It's

51:22

like, "Okay, why are we here?"

51:24

>> You know, stuff like that. You know,

51:26

Gain would be there sometimes, you know,

51:28

but they would be much older men.

51:30

>> Did you ever talk with her at length?

51:32

>> I I mean, I met her. Yes.

51:34

>> Yeah.

51:35

>> Um, well, I mean, she was from or went

51:37

to school in Oxford and I lived in

51:38

Oxford growing up, you know, when I was

51:40

young and so,

51:41

>> you know, had some conversation with

51:43

her. I mean,

51:43

>> what did you think of her?

51:44

>> I mean, she was very charming and

51:46

eloquent and, you know, beautiful and

51:48

stylish and definitely was charming and,

51:52

you know, just that's all I thought

51:53

about her. I didn't really think

51:54

anything else.

51:56

>> Um I didn't really know anything back

51:58

then about her like like we do now. So

52:01

>> um but she was very much interested in

52:03

getting to know the other girls, you

52:05

know, and or she was definitely an

52:06

organizer of

52:08

>> the only woman there with a bunch of

52:10

men. Um so definitely like the organizer

52:12

of of the girls being introduced to the

52:16

men or I saw a couple friends like

52:17

sitting on their laps and things like

52:19

that and it was definitely a flirty

52:21

environment. I mean, I found out years

52:23

later I one of my friends was brought

52:26

into the room a room with one of the

52:28

other men and assaulted and things. So,

52:33

um,

52:33

>> how did that make you feel when you

52:34

found that out?

52:35

>> Well, it wasn't didn't make me feel

52:37

good, you know, since I had brought them

52:39

there. Um,

52:42

it made me feel really bad about that,

52:44

but I I didn't know then really what

52:47

happened. This was years later I found

52:48

out about it. So it wasn't really told

52:51

like we weren't really like I said

52:53

nobody really

52:54

>> said anything about it back then.

52:57

>> What

53:00

when when you would be invited to a

53:03

party like this and then they'd say

53:05

bring friends and then you do

53:08

and you've had bad things happen to you

53:10

but then you also said you had that

53:11

other side of the relationship where

53:12

he's like oh he's kind of a mentor and

53:14

helping my career. Is that like kind of

53:17

looking back on you as as as a young

53:19

very young woman when this was

53:21

happening? Is that kind of what made you

53:22

be like, "Yeah, it'll be fine. If

53:24

they're there with me, it'll be fine."

53:25

Like, is there that thought in your head

53:27

that like nothing will happen if it's

53:29

all of us there?

53:31

>> No. Well, not really. I just I just knew

53:35

that

53:37

anyone who knew him

53:40

benefited from it. I would say that they

53:42

got kind of what they wanted. So, a lot

53:44

of times they wanted to meet him. So,

53:46

like a lot of times I didn't want to

53:48

introduce my friend, but it's like, "Oh,

53:49

your friend helped you get that. Can I

53:51

meet him?" It was like that kind of

53:52

thing, you know, and so these are my

53:56

really close friends. It wasn't like I

53:58

went and

53:59

>> picked somebody off in in the street and

54:01

they're like, "Okay, meet coming in."

54:02

These my really good friends like,

54:03

"What? you know, you got to go to NYU,

54:06

you know, or you got to, and it's like,

54:08

oh, well, okay, if you want to meet him,

54:10

like knowing, well, well, he does like

54:11

these creepy massages and just so you

54:13

know, you know, like it was kind of like

54:15

that.

54:16

>> You did say that

54:16

>> sometimes, you know, um, but I don't

54:20

think I ever thought or knew that they

54:22

would be assaulted. Sometimes you, and a

54:24

lot of survivors say this, like a lot of

54:26

times you think it's only you

54:28

>> because they're not saying that it

54:29

happened to them, you know? So, um, I

54:33

didn't really know the extent of these

54:35

assaults until, you know, modern day. I

54:38

didn't really know then what was what

54:40

was really going on with them. I mean,

54:43

sometimes you would ask them and they

54:44

would say no. So,

54:48

I didn't

54:49

You have to understand the way we think

54:51

about Epstein today is nothing like we

54:53

thought back then. A lot of people just

54:54

didn't really talk about him so much.

54:56

>> That's right. You didn't even have the

54:58

top of the iceberg scraped back then.

55:01

Yeah, until it became a conversation.

55:03

That was that wasn't until late 2003,

55:05

early 2004 when it became a

55:07

conversation.

55:08

>> I think it was even after that, right?

55:11

>> Well, well, he was still involved with a

55:13

lot of my friends and other people 05

55:16

06. But for me, I was out early 2004.

55:18

>> Okay. And it was only because a

55:20

girlfriend of mine came to came to me

55:23

and said that she was abused through

55:26

Jeffrey, you know, and she said she said

55:28

she went to go see him on the Upper East

55:30

Side apartment. I guess mansion. Um I

55:33

guess

55:36

>> it had never been that bad, but there

55:38

was a situation where he had told her

55:42

with that that demon look in his eyes

55:43

like, "You need to go in that room right

55:45

now and you need to have sex with with

55:46

him." and she was scared and she did it.

55:49

She went into the room and somebody came

55:51

in, had sex with her, just dismissed her

55:53

and left. It was a kind of this quick

55:56

thing which [ __ ] her up, you know, cuz

55:59

that wasn't what she was wanting or

56:02

expecting. And then from there, that's

56:05

when that's when everything opened up

56:07

because then she was the first one to

56:09

say, "This man made me do something."

56:11

It's like, "What? Like he made you?" And

56:14

then we started questioning like well I

56:16

wonder if like when he would call us to

56:18

go maybe that's what he wanted us to do

56:20

you know but this is this was like a

56:22

force thing with her like Virginia Frey

56:24

explains in her book go do that you know

56:28

um and so when she said that she was

56:30

just like you have no idea who Jeffrey

56:32

is and like what are you talking about

56:34

like what do you mean and so we called

56:36

the friends over we're all talking like

56:38

what do you mean what did he make you do

56:40

what what's going on here so it was more

56:42

of like this oh my gosh Gosh, are you

56:44

serious? This this type of conversation

56:46

that we never had before. So, this is

56:49

three or four years in.

56:52

Um,

56:52

>> so now you hear it from other people.

56:54

>> Yeah. And things are unraveling. Yeah.

56:56

>> So, it's a completely different um way

56:58

of thinking about this man.

57:02

Did you guys at any point in that

57:05

conversation when this is coming out,

57:08

did someone suggest to call the police

57:10

or something like that or was it assumed

57:12

that it's like, yo, this guy's powerful.

57:14

We got to stay away.

57:16

>> Well, we talked about it um about

57:18

contacting the FBI. There were there was

57:20

definitely talk about it, but nobody

57:22

wanted to do it.

57:24

>> We just wanted to to what we talked

57:27

about was just the best way to get away

57:28

from him so we didn't have to see him

57:30

again. That was just what we spoke

57:32

about. I'm not I'm not quite sure if she

57:34

ever saw him again after that. I'm

57:36

thinking no because she moved away after

57:38

I moved away. We all just try to get

57:40

away from New York where he knew that he

57:42

spent most of his time.

57:48

>> And he would before this though he would

57:50

like call you you were saying too. So

57:52

that would be a lot of the contact where

57:53

he's like go meet with this person in

57:55

Hollywood or go do this audition then

57:57

ask you about it afterwards. That was a

57:58

lot of your communication with him,

58:00

right?

58:00

>> Well, in person, yes. Or maybe a phone

58:03

call. That's when he was pretty serious

58:04

cuz he's right to the point.

58:06

>> Yeah.

58:06

>> Um, but sometimes it would be the

58:08

secretaries calling for things and you

58:10

would you would have the chance to say

58:11

no or I'm out of town or tell them I'm

58:12

out of town,

58:13

>> you know, and maybe they would just try

58:15

to hound somebody else to do something,

58:17

you know. Um, I never really

58:20

thought that those horrible things were

58:23

happening. I just kind of thought, okay,

58:26

if he sent me for an audition and I was

58:28

assaulted or somebody tried to have sex

58:30

with me that it was just that separate

58:32

situation between the two of us. I had

58:34

no idea that it was because of he was

58:36

sending me for that reason. I just knew

58:39

when I got back, I always thought it was

58:41

strange. And even at Capito Hill, when I

58:43

talked to all the girls and we sat down,

58:45

I would say, "Did he groom did I would

58:48

say, "Did he ask you whenever you got

58:50

back from meeting with anyone exactly

58:53

what happened?" And they were like, "Oh

58:54

my gosh." He wanted to know exactly

58:56

every single detail of everything that

58:59

happened from the moment you sat down

59:00

with him and talked to him, how he how

59:02

he approached you, if he tried to

59:04

assault you, if he tried to, you know,

59:06

what he said. Every single one of them

59:08

said the same thing. And we're just

59:09

like, "Wow, that's what I always thought

59:11

because I always thought it was weird.

59:13

He would ask me so many questions about

59:15

one little inc incident about one stupid

59:17

audition, you know, but then there were

59:20

girls sent to the same audition.

59:23

So you So let's take a director, right?

59:25

He's getting auditions from innovative

59:28

artists and Abram's artists and all the

59:30

different agencies they're sending, you

59:32

know, their talent to spec specifically

59:34

for this role. But then Epste is sending

59:37

10 girls.

59:40

Yeah,

59:41

>> there's a difference that he's sending

59:42

these 10 girls, you know, for an

59:44

audition. He's not a movie agent, you

59:47

know what I mean? So, that should have

59:50

been the first red flag right there, but

59:51

people are introduced to directors.

59:53

Doesn't matter who you are. Um,

59:56

I think back then I was just excited to

59:58

go on audition with a really big

59:59

director, right?

60:00

>> Yeah.

60:01

I had asked you earlier

60:04

where people maybe if they aren't abused

60:07

learn to groom like that and you said

60:10

someone has to teach them and

60:14

there is a lot of evidence that one of

60:16

the people who taught Jeffrey Epstein

60:17

about this stuff was admin Kosigible

60:19

that's a separate issue but what you're

60:21

saying right here and I'm not saying

60:23

this to make light of it at all I'm just

60:25

drawing a parallel is a sadistic version

60:28

of like an NFL coach watching a lot of

60:31

tape and learning every single thing

60:34

about the other team when he would call

60:36

you and ask in my opinion just hearing

60:38

you describe it and ask you about every

60:40

single thing that happened. He's

60:42

studying

60:43

>> to see what the other person does or if

60:45

they were cuz you said he would say to

60:47

you like, "Oh, he didn't do anything or

60:48

something like that." And then he'd be

60:50

like disappointed or something. So

60:51

>> the disappointment might have been so

60:53

sick that he's like, "Oh my god, they

60:55

weren't good enough to get her to do

60:56

like

60:57

>> Yeah. Could be on that. Oh, that's a

60:59

level of depravity that's uh a little

61:01

beyond

61:03

beyond the bill. Wow.

61:09

>> Have you have you f Did you follow the

61:12

Diddy case at all?

61:13

>> Yeah. Mhm.

61:16

>> Did any of that surprise you?

61:18

>> Did he?

61:19

>> Yeah.

61:19

>> Well, I mean, in the early 2000s, Diddy

61:22

was around a lot and everybody knew

61:24

about his parties you didn't want to go

61:26

to. I mean, there were the white Well,

61:27

there were the white parties, you know.

61:30

>> I mean, I went to a white party. I mean,

61:31

everybody wanted to go to the white

61:32

parties, but like

61:34

>> um you know, the after parties I never

61:38

went to or um most people I know didn't

61:40

go to those and and they had a

61:42

reputation of you didn't want to go to

61:43

those parties. So, that was very well

61:45

known back then. I also knew like a club

61:48

club owner that used to say that you

61:50

know

61:52

he's gone to those parties and and you

61:54

know about the bisexuality and things of

61:56

Diddy and stuff. It was pretty well

61:58

known back then. Very open.

62:00

>> Yeah, it's pretty well in the music

62:01

industry back then um that a lot of

62:04

those men were doing those types of

62:05

parties and stuff. So the different the

62:07

difference with with Shan Combmes is

62:09

that he drugged. There was a lot of

62:10

drugs around.

62:12

>> And with Epstein, he liked you to be

62:14

very present and there was never any

62:15

alcohol or drugs around.

62:17

>> So you never saw him drink or anything

62:19

like that

62:19

>> or he would never give you drugs or

62:21

alcohol.

62:22

>> He wanted you to be present and he hated

62:25

drugs and alcohol.

62:26

>> Yeah.

62:26

>> Like he looked down on you if you did

62:27

them.

62:29

>> You know, that's the difference with

62:30

Pittdy. I think there was lots of drugs

62:32

and alcohol involved. I mean, I think

62:34

there was even drugs in the baby oil,

62:36

>> right? So I think there was it was very

62:38

different. um environments,

62:42

but still, you know, sadist abuse, you

62:46

know.

62:48

>> Yeah. Now, when you met Virginia Robert

62:52

years later, right?

62:53

>> Mhm.

62:54

>> Well, actually, before I get to that,

62:57

cuz you've mentioned it a few times that

62:58

I think we should talk about that. when

63:00

when he

63:02

first did you know that he got arrested

63:05

in ' 07

63:07

08 and that case happened. Were you

63:09

aware of any of that?

63:11

>> Yes, of course.

63:12

>> At the time.

63:13

>> Mhm. I just didn't follow it closely.

63:16

>> Okay.

63:16

>> And I didn't pay like a lot of attention

63:18

to it. I definitely didn't pay a lot of

63:21

attention to it.

63:22

>> So, you didn't know the details of like

63:23

there were 43 12 and 13 and 14 year olds

63:26

coming.

63:26

>> Did anybody know that then?

63:27

>> I don't I don't think so.

63:28

>> So, no. I just knew that they were

63:29

underage girls. And then I would speak

63:32

to some of my friends about it. Gosh,

63:34

did you know that Jeffree was with

63:35

underage girls? And then

63:38

and then um I had to remember there was

63:41

this one time that my girlfriends and I

63:43

we flew on a on the airplane down to

63:46

like West Palm Beach and we were

63:48

supposed to be going to Miami. We ended

63:49

up in West Palm Beach and um

63:53

I remember one of the girls Reena Oh,

63:55

she's been pretty outspoken.

63:57

>> I remember. And yeah, Reena called

63:58

Jeffrey and was like, "Oh, we're

64:00

stranded in West Palm. You know, we need

64:01

a we need a ride." And he had he

64:04

organized a car to pick us up to take us

64:06

to Miami. And when we got into the car

64:09

to take us to Miami, there was a really

64:11

young girl in the car. And I remember we

64:14

were just like, "Why is she here?" Like,

64:16

that's so weird. Um, and I remember we'd

64:20

always spoken about it. Why was that

64:21

young girl in the car? And then now we

64:23

know why there was a young girl in the

64:25

car. But um that was the only thing that

64:28

I ever saw that would I would never have

64:31

thought that he was into anyone

64:33

underage.

64:35

He was very very adamant if any of the

64:37

girls that were around were over 18. And

64:39

that's what I always saw

64:42

>> and that was that's what I always

64:44

thought anyway. They could have been

64:45

underage but I never knew. Um the girls

64:48

on the island I found out were underage

64:50

but I never knew then that they were

64:51

>> the ones you were there with. M

64:54

>> I never knew they were. I mean, I'm sure

64:56

maybe they were told to lie and say they

64:57

were overage or we probably didn't even

64:59

talk about it.

65:00

>> That's the thing. That's the thing about

65:02

like the blackmail and stuff like

65:04

>> Mhm.

65:06

>> All you got to do if you want to

65:08

blackmail someone like that is let me

65:11

think of a really blatant example

65:13

because I don't know how this would

65:14

work, but you have rooms came up. some

65:18

guy goes in to have what, you know, even

65:20

on camera might appear to be consensual

65:23

sex, but let's actually assume it's not,

65:25

but it might appear that way in a court

65:26

of law. You might be able to make the

65:27

argument.

65:29

>> But if someone comes in afterwards and

65:31

pulls out the driver's license

65:33

>> or the passport or whatever

65:35

identification of that person and just

65:37

holds it up to the camera,

65:39

>> you're [ __ ]

65:39

>> Yeah.

65:40

>> It's done. Mhm.

65:42

>> And so there are people because it's so

65:44

hard to skim through all this and be

65:46

like, could this person be innocent?

65:48

Could everyone just looks guilty and you

65:49

and you just want to go off with all

65:51

your heads.

65:52

>> But there are people who have said like

65:55

people who are viewed as as perpetrators

65:58

of this stuff who have said exactly what

65:59

you just said, which is

66:00

>> I always saw them with young women,

66:03

>> but I never saw them with a 12 or

66:05

13year-old or 14year-old or something

66:06

like that. They were always of age. And

66:09

so I was like, all right, whatever. And

66:10

it's like when I hear people say that,

66:13

I'm like I could see how the fog

66:17

>> sets in. But to me, it's like

66:21

looking at it from their perspectives.

66:23

>> All right. You going to an island with

66:25

the guy

66:26

>> and it's you and him and like a few

66:28

housekeepers and like [ __ ] 10 women.

66:31

That's not a little weird.

66:32

>> Yeah, exactly. Even even just even just

66:34

the 16 to 22 year olds that are on the

66:37

island,

66:38

>> you know, is a little weird to have a

66:39

whole bunch of young girls on the

66:41

island, you know. Do do these men even

66:43

know that their passports are taken away

66:44

and they can't leave until he says they

66:46

can leave?

66:46

>> That's crazy.

66:47

>> You know, stuff like that.

66:48

>> Who took your passport again when

66:51

>> Well, um Well, Epstein would take the

66:53

passports of the girls when you go to

66:55

the island

66:56

>> personally.

66:56

>> Yeah. So you So you can't get away.

66:58

Yeah.

67:01

>> Oh man.

67:03

Yeah.

67:04

>> Yeah. So, people don't know all this

67:05

stuff is going on and and you don't

67:07

really know which men knew of young

67:09

girls or they're really young girls. You

67:11

just don't know until you read the files

67:13

and you do an investigation, you know? I

67:15

mean, you have Bill Gates saying, you

67:16

know, I had sex with a Russian girl. Was

67:18

it a 16-year-old Russian girl or was it

67:20

a 22-year-old?

67:22

You know,

67:25

I mean, she's not coming forward, but

67:27

like

67:28

what do you know? You know, you got a

67:30

STED from her. you know that was

67:32

>> that you're trying to hide from your

67:33

wife. I mean I love Melinda Gates.

67:36

>> Oh, she's gone.

67:36

>> Oh, I love her. She's just going off.

67:39

And that's what we need. Women who say,

67:41

you know, enough is enough.

67:42

>> She's an Epstein survivor, you know.

67:45

>> Well, yeah.

67:46

>> She survived him.

67:47

>> Yeah.

67:47

>> You know, because her husband was locked

67:49

in there and saying all these years,

67:51

"Oh, I just don't know that guy that

67:53

well."

67:54

>> The best line ever. He's like, "Well,

67:55

he's dead." So,

67:57

>> yeah, he's dead. Yeah. You think you

68:00

think all your skeletons in your closet

68:02

go away just cuz he's dead?

68:03

>> That's not an answer, my man.

68:06

Oh my god. Oh, it's so bad.

68:10

>> When did you Did you not meet Virginia

68:12

Roberts until 2019 when

68:15

>> Yeah. Well, I never actually met her in

68:17

person. I've only spoken to her on the

68:19

phone a few times. Yeah. I reached out

68:21

to her because she spoke out in 2019

68:23

about Prince Andrew,

68:25

>> right? And I reached out to her because

68:27

I knew of two things about Prince Andrew

68:29

and I wanted just to corroborate her

68:30

story or support her. The first one was

68:33

seeing him on the island and the second

68:35

one was my girlfriend. She was made to

68:37

have sex

68:38

>> and she told me it was a prince.

68:41

>> Was that the one who went into the room?

68:42

Yeah.

68:43

>> And came back and blew the whole

68:44

whistle.

68:44

>> Yes, that was the one.

68:46

>> And that was with in the in the mansion.

68:49

>> Well, she had told me it was a prince

68:52

and I said, "I met a prince on the

68:53

island."

68:54

>> Yeah. I wonder. So, we put two and two

68:55

together.

68:56

>> Um, and then Virginia spoke out and said

68:58

she was abused by a prince. And I, you

69:02

know, during during those years, I

69:03

started speaking out. I didn't really

69:04

have a support system. So, I reached out

69:06

to the survivors, Virginia and the other

69:08

Mara and the other girls that were

69:10

>> um there and um

69:13

started talking, you know, with them

69:14

about our stories and how it lined up.

69:18

>> It was the same years. So

69:20

>> what cuz you were you said you were at

69:22

least aware a case was happening in '08

69:24

when it was happening 0708

69:27

in 2019 when he got arrested obviously

69:29

the story went crazy mainstream and that

69:32

is a big difference here they kind of

69:33

like shove the other one under the rug

69:35

when it was happening what made you go

69:37

whoa and have it all like have your

69:40

moment and when was that moment where it

69:41

all came back and you're like holy [ __ ]

69:45

I was trafficked assaulted all this

69:47

stuff and I've never talked about this

69:49

like what was that moment?

69:51

>> Well, the traffing, the assault, all

69:53

that stuff took years to come out. Um,

69:55

so there wasn't that moment, but there

69:56

was a moment when he died when

69:59

everything came like off my shoulders

70:01

>> with him dying was when I was finally

70:04

able to say, "Okay, wait a second.

70:08

I had I had a just a reaction to it that

70:10

just was it was really profound." So, I

70:14

wanted to to know answers and I wanted I

70:17

just wanted to know like like what was

70:18

going on. There was so many things back

70:20

then and I just wanted to reach out to

70:23

people and and try to you know

70:25

understand the story and that took took

70:27

several years because when I spoke out

70:29

in 2020 21 you know it was really to

70:32

support other survivors in their

70:33

stories. It wasn't even like I had even

70:35

really gotten to my story yet. Um that

70:37

came a little bit later with being

70:39

deposed for things and talking about it.

70:42

the Epstein fund. I started talking a

70:44

little bit more about it. Um the more I

70:46

started

70:46

>> Wait, the Epstein fund.

70:47

>> Yeah, there was this, you know, Virgin

70:48

Island Epstein fund. I didn't get a

70:50

payout or settlement of it, but a lot of

70:52

the survivor 200 something survivors

70:54

did. Um but I but I was um I did go and

70:58

tell my story. That was almost like, you

71:01

know, like almost being reabused again

71:03

because those women were not empathetic

71:04

at all. And so I kind of shunned away

71:07

from telling my story. So it took me

71:08

some time to get there.

71:10

Um,

71:11

>> when did you start therapy?

71:14

>> Two years ago, so it took some time.

71:16

>> Oh, wow.

71:17

>> Yeah.

71:17

>> So, not at all. Right.

71:18

>> Well, actually, no, I did start therapy

71:20

right after that, but it didn't really

71:22

work for me. It was just talk therapy

71:23

and it didn't really do anything for me.

71:25

Just talking about stuff.

71:26

>> What was different about the therapy?

71:28

>> The therapy that I got two years ago was

71:30

EMDR therapy. And so EMDR is when they

71:34

use like a a flashlight and they go back

71:36

and forth like this and your eyes go

71:37

back and forth like this and you go into

71:39

that kind of like memories that are

71:42

stored and you bring those up and you

71:45

talk about them and then you kind of

71:46

restore them. And so it's like this this

71:49

kind of like hypnotherapy.

71:51

It's very popular with uh trauma victims

71:55

and um it works. It works and um it's

71:58

very traumatic to bring bring these new

72:02

actually old thoughts and memories back

72:04

but then you kind of car

72:07

compartmentalize them and um take them

72:11

delicately

72:12

you know sensitively to talk about them

72:15

and then kind of put them back and then

72:17

there's pulse pulsating things in your

72:20

hands that so the memories are going

72:22

back and forth in your head the flashing

72:24

lights the music and so it's going back

72:27

into that part of your memory that's

72:29

suppressed and trust me mine was deeply

72:32

suppressed in there. Oh,

72:34

>> so it took a little bit of time, but you

72:37

would definitely have outbursts and, you

72:39

know, moments of like breaking down and

72:42

crying fits and things like that trying

72:44

to get through it because you don't

72:45

really want to go there as you're

72:46

starting to re-remember things. And

72:50

unfortunately, it goes into your

72:52

childhood and

72:54

um the abuse maybe that you had in your

72:56

childhood that you don't really want to

72:58

talk about because I tend to be like, I

73:00

had the best childhood. I traveled all

73:02

around the world and I had everything I

73:03

wanted. You

73:03

>> said earlier

73:04

>> I've always said that, you know, but

73:06

EMDR taught me, you know, girl, you did

73:08

not have the best childhood. You did not

73:09

have a support system.

73:11

>> You didn't feel safe. You didn't have

73:13

the emotional capacity to, you know, be

73:17

loved in the way that you needed. Like

73:19

my parents bought me everything I

73:20

needed, you know, and they will say

73:23

today, well, you know, and when you

73:25

lived in New York those eight years, you

73:27

know, I came there, gave you 15 grand

73:29

for your for your divorce. You know, I

73:31

was there for you. But I'm like, you

73:33

lived there for eight years. You never

73:34

came. You never helped me out for eight

73:36

years. You came one time in eight years.

73:38

>> You know, that's not the love and

73:40

attention and what I needed then. you

73:42

know, you know, the type of people who

73:44

say, you know, all these things that you

73:46

did wrong but never gave you that

73:47

support to make it better, you know, to

73:50

leave your child in in survival mode and

73:53

which is I I was in for so long, you

73:55

know, and so EMDR taught me, you know,

73:58

you didn't have a safe place. You didn't

74:00

have that love that you needed. And

74:03

granted, now I have it with my children.

74:05

So I had to bore people to get the love

74:08

and support that I needed. And trust me,

74:10

it's the best love and support I'll ever

74:12

have. Unconditional love.

74:14

>> So, I do have it now, but um EMDR

74:17

therapy, it's it'll take you by the

74:20

balls and like it makes you really look

74:23

deep and hard into things. But because I

74:25

had that was the reason why I'm able to

74:27

be this person in front of you that's

74:30

powerful and brave today. If I didn't

74:32

have EMDR therapy, I would never been

74:33

able to be this person in front of you.

74:35

>> I needed some type of hard therapy. Um,

74:38

and to be able to hold space for people

74:40

in my podcast of their, you know,

74:42

traumatic stories. I I go to EMDR um, on

74:47

Wednesdays for two hours for myself

74:49

>> actively doing it

74:50

>> for myself and on Thursdays I go for the

74:53

survivors, you know, I go for their

74:55

stories because it's traumatic.

74:57

>> So they do you guys do it in a group

74:59

setting? No, I go for myself just to

75:02

work on what Lisa needs to work on

75:04

personal stuff and then after I work

75:06

with survivors and do this, you know,

75:09

this work is not easy

75:10

>> to talk. You know, you're doing it with

75:12

me talking to survivors and hearing

75:14

their stories, especially domestic

75:16

violence and stalking and all the things

75:18

child abuse that we go into on my

75:19

podcast. I have to go to EMDR therapy to

75:22

deal with the trauma from others.

75:24

>> Yeah. Yeah.

75:24

>> of taking on their trauma because I'm

75:26

the one sitting there crying where

75:27

they're the bold and brave ones talking.

75:30

So, you know, it's a lot of work. I'm

75:31

surprised you're not in therapy for it.

75:34

>> I think, you know, I I get to talk with

75:39

so many different types of people. I do

75:41

all different types of content. And

75:44

thank God because if I had to do I mean

75:49

this is amazing today but if I had to do

75:51

one like this every day I I probably

75:53

would be in therapy because you do

75:54

really

75:56

>> first of all there's like a

76:00

great delicacy to one like this because

76:03

I don't want you talking about things

76:04

you don't want to talk about. There's

76:05

also cameras rolling and everything too.

76:08

And I want you to feel comfortable and

76:09

all that, but I'm also trying to

76:11

understand something that's not possible

76:13

for me to fully understand, but do it

76:15

enough that I can

76:19

get it to a place to where you can at

76:21

least share an experience that other

76:24

people out there can be like, "Oh my

76:25

god, wow,

76:26

>> I never thought of it that way." Or

76:28

something like that. And when you do

76:30

that, I mean, these aren't

76:34

happy stories. You know what I mean?

76:36

>> No. But they're so important to tell.

76:38

Like you just said it, like

76:40

>> so people can understand and think, "Oh,

76:43

I never thought of it that way." That's

76:44

the whole point of doing it is for you

76:46

to get a better understanding of how

76:49

things work, how how these master

76:51

manipulators operate, how people groom,

76:54

>> how they how they can sexually assault

76:56

you over and over. Why do you keep going

76:57

back? all these questions, you know, and

77:00

so people can really understand, you

77:02

know, the complexity of of abuse,

77:06

especially when it comes to a serial

77:07

predator like an Epstein, you know,

77:10

>> even just like a Cosby,

77:11

>> you know, even understanding how these

77:14

actresses went to go meet with this guy

77:16

and how they were drugged and raped and

77:18

don't even know what happened to them,

77:20

right?

77:20

>> You know, how how everyone has their

77:23

like MO and

77:25

>> and how they can get away with it for so

77:27

long. I I speak out for those reasons.

77:29

And also the other half of it is because

77:30

I want to be there for survivors. And I

77:32

I'm always representing hundreds if not

77:35

thousands of survivors every time I step

77:37

up on Capitol Hill, every time I'm on

77:39

the podcast, every time people send me

77:42

hundreds of messages all the time.

77:44

>> Right.

77:44

>> I was just in Ireland, you know, all the

77:46

messages that come in from people in

77:48

Ireland who are like, "I have something

77:50

I want to tell you." You know, and just

77:52

like getting it off their chest.

77:54

>> Yeah. Like this is something that is a

77:56

huge massive movement that's happening

77:58

right now where people are actually

78:01

being aware for the first time speaking

78:05

it out loud of their abuse that they had

78:07

because we all one in three one in four

78:10

have had some type of of abuse whether

78:12

it's just like your narcissistic

78:14

girlfriend

78:16

you know you know all different forms

78:18

there's all different forms you know and

78:20

two really the worst forms of it

78:23

>> when you were doing what's it EMDR it's

78:26

called? When you were doing EMDR for the

78:28

first time in 23 or 24 years ago when

78:31

you were doing it

78:32

>> and it made you look back on your

78:34

childhood and everything. This is also,

78:36

if I'm not mistaken from what you

78:38

explained earlier, this is also since

78:41

you kind of ceased having a relationship

78:42

with your parents, right? And your

78:45

parents, at least the way I understood

78:47

it, please correct me if I'm wrong,

78:50

it kind of stemmed from them not being

78:54

comfortable with you talking about this

78:55

or sharing your experiences and they

78:57

kind of abandon you from that. Did that

79:00

make it

79:02

I don't know if the words easier but

79:04

give you a clearer path to maybe look at

79:06

your childhood differently through the

79:08

lens of this therapy because you were

79:10

now past the point where you're like God

79:12

at a moment I needed them the most. My

79:13

parents literally said you're gone.

79:17

>> Yeah. The moments I needed them the

79:19

most, they were they weren't there for

79:20

me. That was the years when I lived in

79:22

New York City when I had three young

79:24

children. They weren't there for me. M

79:26

>> um

79:28

and not to say they don't have their

79:29

reasons, but I mean I'm their child.

79:31

There's never any reason in my book.

79:34

There's no reason that I'm going to turn

79:35

my back on my child there. They they

79:37

couldn't there's never anything they

79:39

could do. So I don't understand that. Um

79:42

I did ask my mother uh I did ask her and

79:47

I think it was 2023 in January. Um,

79:49

there were some text messages that went

79:51

from my mother to an ex-boyfriend who

79:55

had seen me on a documentary and had had

79:58

reached out to me, you know, and had

80:01

formed a relationship with me and he

80:03

pretended like he was a friend and um my

80:06

parents had met him and, you know, he

80:08

was a really good Christian guy and um

80:14

and after getting to know him um he was

80:17

very clear that he wanted to to abuse

80:20

me. You know, he wanted to have a

80:21

threesome with me. He wanted to choke

80:23

and spit on me. He wanted to do all

80:24

these sexual things with me. And I

80:25

didn't want to have a relationship with

80:27

him. And I don't know, my mother, for

80:29

some reason, took his side cuz he was

80:32

like this good Christian man. And on

80:34

paper, he was like this good guy. And

80:35

she didn't understand why I didn't want

80:37

to have a relationship with this guy,

80:38

even though I was trying to tell him he

80:40

was abusive. So, we had this big falling

80:43

out over this this particular man.

80:45

>> Did you tell her what he wanted to do?

80:47

Yeah, I did tell her. But for some

80:49

reason, a lot of parents, I don't know.

80:51

I' I've come to realize a lot of mothers

80:55

want their daughters to be in a

80:56

relationship. No matter if it's abusive

80:58

or not, they want to have that

80:59

relationship where, you know, this

81:01

wealthy man is taking care of you and

81:03

your family. Oh, he said he was going to

81:04

take care of your kids and put them

81:05

through college. Yeah, mom, but he told

81:07

me he wanted to choke me and spit on me,

81:08

too. you know, so there was just all

81:11

this crazy stuff going on with this

81:13

person who had definitely groomed and

81:16

manipulated my mother. So, long story

81:19

short, um I'm just trying to explain why

81:21

I don't speak to them anymore.

81:23

>> Yeah, it's clocking for me.

81:24

>> So, things were things weren't weren't

81:26

good with my parents after this

81:28

relationship with this particular man.

81:30

Then six months went by and so January

81:32

comes about and I'm looking at my phone

81:34

and text messages are coming in from my

81:36

mom, but they're not to me. They're to

81:39

the other guy that had broken up with 6

81:41

months earlier. And I'm like, "Oh,

81:43

that's funny. Why is she texting him?"

81:45

But I read the text messages and she's

81:47

telling him how I should have never left

81:49

him and he was the best thing that ever

81:51

happened to me and shame on Lisa. And so

81:54

I finally had the guts because normally

81:56

I'm just like, "Oh, my mom, you know,

81:58

she just must be a bad moment or

82:00

something." I was always sticking up for

82:02

her. But in this moment, I hadn't spoken

82:03

to her in a while. And so I said, "Oh,

82:05

mom, you know, why are you talking to

82:07

this person like that, you know, and I

82:09

can clearly see that you're saying, you

82:11

know, oh, I don't even talk to Lisa

82:13

anymore." And I'm like, "Well, I didn't

82:15

know you weren't talking to me anymore,

82:16

and you know, that's news to me." And I

82:19

said, "Well, what's the problem?" And

82:21

she goes, "Well, I'm ashamed of you."

82:23

And so she wrote it and I can read the

82:25

text message. I'm ashamed of you. And I

82:28

was like, "Oh, that's funny. You're

82:29

ashamed of me, but you're not ashamed of

82:31

this guy who's like sleeping with

82:33

70-year-old, you know, ratchet call

82:36

girls, you know?" Um, which I had like

82:39

eight pictures I sent to her of him with

82:41

these ratchet call girls. Like this came

82:43

out about him, but she was ashamed of

82:45

me, you know, who's this mother of of

82:48

kids who was just trying to be in a a

82:51

real relationship. So is this all this

82:53

stuff came out where my mom clearly

82:55

said, you know, like I'm ashamed of you.

82:58

And that was the last text message I

82:59

ever got from her. It was the last

83:01

message. And that was January of 2023.

83:04

And so for me personally, that was the

83:06

hardest relationship I had ever had to

83:08

let go of. Um it it took me a year to

83:12

deal with the fact that she didn't want

83:15

to be in my life.

83:16

um she wanted to be in my life to

83:20

everyone else around, you know, to

83:22

pretend like she was in my life, but

83:23

that's how she really felt about me

83:25

>> on her terms. That's

83:26

>> Yeah. And it was hard for me. Um, so I

83:29

needed that EMDR therapy really bad be

83:32

to be able to me that was the biggest

83:33

heartbreak of my life because not only

83:35

did that did I had to let go of her

83:39

because of her and her flying monkeys

83:41

and all the other people had to let go

83:42

of my aunts and my cousins and my my my

83:46

um my sisters and brothers because you

83:48

know that she you know infiltrated to

83:52

them you know how she thought about me

83:54

and I didn't have a chance to like save

83:57

myself And so now I'm

84:00

had to deal with this um through this

84:03

therapy. Took me a long time. It

84:05

probably took me a good year and a half

84:06

to finally get to the point where my

84:08

therapist started to drill in my head,

84:09

you know, your mother's never been there

84:10

for you. She's never supported you.

84:12

She's never probably really loved you

84:14

the way that you needed. You need to

84:16

move on from this. And so I finally got

84:18

to the point, probably was more

84:20

recently, where I'm just at the point

84:21

where I'm like, you know what? if you're

84:24

not good for me, if you're taking other

84:26

people's sides than your own daughter,

84:28

like I have to step away. So, I got to

84:30

the point where I was creating these

84:32

boundaries finally for the first time in

84:34

my life,

84:35

>> I'm there now. I'm I'm literally locked

84:37

in now. Like, nobody's coming in unless

84:39

you are really fully supportive of me.

84:42

And that means anyone who's even trying

84:43

to get in a relationship with me, any

84:44

man, nothing. So, you know, of course,

84:47

because of that reason, I've been single

84:49

for a few years. Um,

84:52

um, leading up to a year ago and um, you

84:55

know, just had to create these

84:56

boundaries.

84:58

But that gave me actually for the first

85:01

time that power to take my power back

85:03

and be like, you know what, I'm only

85:05

going to have people that love and

85:07

support me around me, which meant there

85:09

wasn't that many of them. Uh, and then I

85:11

had to go find the people that love and

85:12

support me like you and other podcasters

85:15

and other survivors and other people

85:16

that we've formed now this real family,

85:19

you know, of support system. Um, that's

85:22

beautiful and I never really had before.

85:26

>> I'm I'm sorry that happened. That's uh

85:29

whenever I hear that and I know like Dee

85:31

can speak the same way like it just

85:33

makes me feel really lucky. Like I

85:35

>> you were so lucky parents, you know what

85:37

I mean? like

85:39

>> you're very lucky. It just doesn't

85:42

I had another guy in here talked about

85:45

his mom on her the fourth husband or

85:48

third husband I can't remember was like

85:50

the main one from his childhood some

85:52

abusive stepfather and there was a day

85:54

where she told him

85:59

I love you but I love him more

86:02

>> which means she she didn't love her kid

86:04

that just like doesn't even process to

86:06

me and hearing what your mom says like

86:08

literally taking the side of abusers I

86:10

might add, you know, I think I kind of

86:12

was like getting at this earlier, but

86:14

now that you've gone back in

86:18

therapy and like looked at this,

86:20

do you feel like your mom maybe never

86:22

loved you or she just doesn't know how

86:24

to show or feel love?

86:29

>> Well, I think that I was always aware of

86:31

it. You know, I was always aware of it,

86:33

but I never wanted to admit it.

86:35

>> You know, I never really wanted to be

86:37

fully abandoned by her. So, I didn't um

86:41

that was actually the third time I had

86:43

seen messages like that that

86:44

accidentally went to me or that I'd

86:46

seen. It was the third time.

86:49

And so, the first couple times I just,

86:52

oh, it just can't be true. It was just a

86:53

mistake or, you know, she can't really

86:55

feel that way. But by the third time, I

86:57

was like, Lisa, wake up. You know, this

87:00

this person's not on your side. And I

87:02

had to realize that,

87:04

you know, but when when they make it

87:06

look like to everyone else that you're

87:08

the problem and not them, that I feel

87:10

this way and she's the one who doesn't

87:12

want to be in my life. No, it's not

87:13

really that way. I'm the one who I feel

87:15

like has always desperately wanted my

87:17

family to be in my life and be

87:20

supportive like I feel like I am of

87:21

them. Um, but we don't always choose our

87:25

family. You have a wonderful family and

87:27

you're so blessed for that. Yeah, you

87:29

don't.

87:29

>> To me, that's the most beautiful thing

87:30

in the world. But it's the reason why I

87:33

dedicated my life to my children to be

87:35

the best thing for them. And my my kids

87:38

know that that mommy's like 100%

87:41

100% for them. And they feel safe, you

87:44

know, they feel really safe. And that's

87:46

I think what all kids really really need

87:47

is to feel safe.

87:49

>> Well, that that that's 100% true. And

87:52

also like that's the best case scenario.

87:56

Like what you don't want to do is

87:57

continue the cycle.

87:58

>> Yeah.

87:59

>> The the brave thing is to be able to and

88:01

the right thing is to be able to break

88:03

the cycle and

88:05

>> be the opposite of all the things that

88:07

you were missing. And it sounds like

88:08

obviously you're doing that. So that I

88:10

mean that's the silver lining on the

88:12

other side doesn't change that these

88:14

things happen to you. I'm sorry about

88:15

that.

88:16

>> Well, people love in different ways. I

88:17

mean my parents were very functional,

88:19

you know. They gave me everything they

88:20

wanted. We traveled around the world. I

88:21

mean, I had, trust me, everything I ever

88:23

wanted, you know, and they were great

88:25

parents. So, I always had that like

88:27

narrative all the time, like I had the

88:29

best upbringing, the best childhood. I

88:31

lived on a boat and I did all these

88:32

things, you know, but then it's like my

88:34

therapist is like, "Look, lady, wake up.

88:36

You didn't have emotional support. Give

88:39

me a reason. Give me a time when you had

88:41

emotional support." I never had to

88:43

realize I never had it. I spent months

88:44

away, you know? I never knew how to miss

88:48

people. Like I would I didn't know how

88:51

to I didn't have that emotion of missing

88:53

someone. Like I would go away for three

88:55

or four months at a time away from my

88:57

family and I never miss them. I would

88:59

have friends or roomies,

89:02

you know, who would be like, I just miss

89:03

my mom so much. I miss my dad. My dad's

89:05

everything. They would get little notes

89:07

from him or I miss my boyfriend. And I

89:09

never really had someone to miss. Like I

89:12

never had that feeling of missing, you

89:14

know? I only had it like in the last

89:16

year. I finally met someone a year ago,

89:20

>> you know, who we have this wonderful

89:22

friendship, you know, that this this

89:24

foundation

89:26

of, you know, just safety.

89:30

>> Like finally, for the first time in my

89:32

life, the first time in my life, and I'm

89:33

in my 40s now, a safe relationship that

89:36

isn't based on knowing that guy just

89:38

wants to sleep with me or just wants my

89:40

body, you know, which is, you know, a

89:43

lot of uh women have this type of

89:45

relationship with men. That is the

89:47

ultimate compliment from a guy's

89:48

perspective. The number one compliment

89:51

that you can ever get from a woman is

89:55

when they say, "I feel safe with you."

89:56

>> Yeah. Right.

89:57

>> It's true. It

89:58

>> is. Is it true? Yeah.

90:00

>> And I, you know, I'm sure that sometimes

90:04

there's people who take advantage of

90:06

that, which is awful, but it sounds like

90:08

you've you finally found something where

90:11

you genuinely feel that way and have

90:12

seen that exhibited over a long period

90:14

of time, and that's great. I'm happy for

90:16

you with that.

90:17

>> Thank you.

90:20

>> Have you talked to your dad at all? Is

90:22

your dad in the same boat as your mom or

90:25

>> Well, my dad was just the type that

90:27

never reached out. He never called or

90:29

texts. My mom my mom always did it. So,

90:32

she was always the one that I spoke to.

90:34

So when she um wrote that text message

90:37

to me in January 2023 and I stopped

90:40

reaching out

90:43

I stopped trying um no I didn't really

90:46

hear from my dad that much after that.

90:48

Um he came out recently for you know

90:51

something um with my family and you know

90:54

he saw a plaque on the wall that said

90:56

like you know

90:59

like top entrepreneur or or was it like

91:03

top um

91:06

like one of the 10 top people to look

91:08

out for in 2024. One of the well sorry

91:11

one of the one of the top influential

91:13

influential people to look out for in

91:15

2024. It was like a headline like that

91:17

with my picture and he pointed at it and

91:19

said, you know, I'm really proud of you,

91:21

>> you know. So, that meant a lot to me.

91:23

That's all I ever wanted, you know,

91:25

words of affirmation or my love

91:26

language. And so, all I ever wanted was

91:28

to feel like my parents were proud of

91:30

me,

91:31

>> you know. I

91:32

>> never really felt that through my life.

91:34

So, that that felt good.

91:35

>> Interesting.

91:36

>> Yeah.

91:36

>> And you still don't have a relationship

91:38

with your siblings. You said your mom

91:39

would like kind of pit you guys against

91:42

each other as kids.

91:44

>> Yeah. up until Yeah. present day.

91:47

>> How what's the age gap between each of

91:49

you? Older brother, younger sister?

91:50

>> No, my brother's a year younger. My

91:51

sister is three years younger.

91:53

>> Okay.

91:55

I said, "Wow, you guys are pretty close

91:57

in age, too. You're not tight.

92:00

That makes sense."

92:03

>> Well, come to find out, a lot of

92:04

siblings aren't tight.

92:08

>> It sounds like though there's a lot of

92:10

siblings because I was an only child, so

92:12

I can't speak to this from experience.

92:14

But I know I see what you're saying

92:16

there, but I'll see a lot of

92:18

relationships where siblings aren't

92:20

tight, but there's

92:23

>> it's more like um

92:24

>> mutual respect or

92:26

>> no, what's the word? Like there's

92:27

underlying tension, but there's very

92:30

clear shared lived experiences that they

92:33

>> can go to. And it sounds like you didn't

92:36

really have that part.

92:38

>> Yeah. Yeah, I didn't I never understood

92:39

that because I had girlfriends that did

92:42

not have a close relationship with their

92:43

sisters, but they were sisters. They

92:44

were still get together, the family, and

92:46

they're still sisters. Even though they

92:48

weren't close

92:49

>> and I know guys that hate each other,

92:51

you know, their brother, they hate each

92:52

other, but like whenever they're

92:53

together and holidays and stuff, they're

92:54

still brothers.

92:55

>> You know what I mean? It's just like I

92:57

never really had that close family

92:59

dynamic. And we were a very small

93:00

family, so I didn't I just didn't have

93:03

that. That's why

93:05

why I took marriage seriously, why I

93:07

wanted to have a big family. I, you

93:09

know, I always wanted to have kids and

93:10

have that my own family to have, you

93:13

know, a really close, you know, knit

93:15

relationship. But, uh, you know, I do

93:17

have that now.

93:18

>> You've done that. Yeah. It's awesome.

93:20

>> Are you are you religious at all or have

93:21

you ever been religious?

93:23

>> Well, I mean, I wasn't raised under any

93:25

religion. My mom was a Roman Roman

93:27

Catholic, but we weren't raised My

93:28

father just let us believe, you know,

93:30

figure it out on our own. I mean, I've I

93:32

feel like I'm very very spiritual, you

93:34

know. I do a lot of

93:36

>> um you know, meditation and I have like

93:38

this retreats and things I go on. I feel

93:40

very

93:42

>> um spiritual, but I'm not like a

93:44

religious person. No,

93:45

>> no.

93:46

>> But do you believe in like a higher

93:48

power?

93:49

>> Oh, for sure. Yes. A definite uh higher

93:51

power. I believe in God. Yeah.

93:54

>> I'm not a religious person either, but I

93:56

certainly believe in God and certainly

93:58

believe in a higher power. And

94:00

>> I try to live my life assuming I'm

94:04

humble and not knowing what comes next

94:06

and I'm going have to answer for things

94:07

I do here. So do as much good as

94:09

possible, right? And I think everyone

94:12

has to kind of have their own

94:13

relationship with that. So

94:14

>> however people get to that is great with

94:16

me.

94:17

>> Yeah. But I gotta tell you, reading

94:20

through these files and

94:24

seeing the things that they're talking

94:26

about and the things they did and

94:28

hearing about personal experiences that

94:30

you've shared today and other victims

94:32

have have shared and again all the stuff

94:34

we don't even know about yet.

94:36

>> It is impossible

94:38

to not look at this and say there is

94:42

Satanism going on, whatever that is. I

94:45

don't even I'm not the guy that can

94:47

define that. There's way better people

94:48

in the comments sections that could

94:50

actually like really define that. But

94:53

do you have a similar experience when

94:55

when you read about this and see these

94:57

things like the like [ __ ] this is like

94:59

ritualistic in a way?

95:02

>> Well, Satanism is real.

95:05

It really is a

95:08

I mean the Epstein world is a cult.

95:11

>> It's a cult.

95:14

is if you look up anything about cults,

95:15

this is has the exact same the leaders,

95:18

you know, and the followers and the the

95:21

major grooming that's going on and and

95:24

if you look at the rituals and stuff

95:25

that they do, the pretty disgusting

95:26

rituals that they do. Um

95:29

uh it is a form of devil wor worshiping

95:33

and yeah I mean I think with one extreme

95:36

you have to have the other and the

95:37

beautiful light and the god and the

95:39

peace and you know the the beautiful

95:41

universe and things that we know are

95:42

real as well you know

95:44

>> um I don't really get into all the other

95:46

religious stuff and people can believe

95:47

whatever they want to but I do believe

95:50

there's there's a very dark evil with

95:52

with also the beautiful light. Um, and I

95:56

feel like we're all trying to get to

95:57

that beautiful light right now

96:02

and try to take some of that evil away

96:04

now that we're aware of what's going on.

96:06

We're hoping somehow to move away from

96:09

it or or shift something that we can't

96:12

those people aren't able to do those

96:15

>> hor horrendous things anymore.

96:17

>> There's there's got to be something. We

96:19

can't just now know what's going on and

96:21

not do something about it. what that is

96:23

and how we're going to get there. I have

96:25

no clue. You know, that's we're all have

96:27

to figure out right now. But we have to

96:29

keep trying because now that we've seen

96:31

how dark that goes, how could you sit

96:33

around and just let that happen?

96:36

>> I agree 100%, Lisa. It's, you know, and

96:40

I hope something does. But you you've

96:43

described that look in Jeffrey Epstein's

96:46

eyes a few times. I believe the word you

96:48

used was like demonic, like the demon

96:50

look.

96:50

>> Mhm.

96:51

>> Yeah. That shift. Yeah.

96:53

>> Do you think there's

96:55

something more to that? Meaning like if

96:59

demons are real then he was possessed by

97:03

one or was one?

97:05

>> Yeah. I mean there's a lot of conspiracy

97:08

theories about how far that goes with

97:10

like the lizards and the vampires and

97:12

all this crazy stuff.

97:15

Anything is possible.

97:17

>> Like I don't I don't like to say nope

97:20

that can't be possible. I don't know. I

97:22

do know there's some demonic stuff going

97:24

on there um within him with with G Galen

97:28

with um with many of them. I mean, it

97:31

was clear as day if you read it on the

97:32

files. So,

97:33

>> and I'm not like, you know, making

97:35

making anything up. It's it's clear as

97:37

day. So,

97:39

>> I don't know. For me, it's very scary

97:40

and there's a reason why a lot of people

97:42

have a lot of fear around it. Yes. You

97:44

know,

97:44

>> and Les Wexner's even he even talked

97:47

about it openly in the past. Now

97:50

>> I guess you could say it's a figure of

97:51

speech poss meaning possibly but I don't

97:54

think it is. I think I think it was an

97:56

honest

97:57

>> 40 and slip if you will but he talked

97:59

about in De Can we pull this up? It was

98:02

in the 80s or 90s there was a big

98:03

article spread on him maybe in GQ. I

98:06

could be misremembering it but we'll

98:08

we'll I'm sure De will find it. It was

98:10

in GQ.

98:12

>> Okay. But he he talked about he's

98:16

possessed by I believe it's called a

98:18

dick, which is a Yiddish word for demon.

98:21

>> Boy,

98:22

>> and literally says it and and it's like

98:24

it drives him and it and it makes him do

98:27

the things he does.

98:28

>> Now, in a court of law, you could say,

98:30

"Oh, he's just saying he's trying to

98:32

drive towards wealth or whatever." But I

98:34

>> He just said that,

98:35

>> right? When I see the evil

98:36

>> bachelor billionaire,

98:38

>> right? When I see an evil of a guy like

98:39

this, Yeah. Th got it right here. And

98:42

he's actually saying something like

98:43

this. It's like DIBB YK or something

98:46

like that.

98:47

>> Yeah, they protect him for whatever

98:48

reason in the files and everything. They

98:51

protect him. That was one of the things

98:52

at the Pam Bondi hearing when they I

98:54

think it was Massie who brought it up,

98:55

right?

98:56

>> And he had to demand they release that

98:58

name on it was his.

99:00

>> Yes. That there were six names that

99:02

Roana said after he and Massie went and

99:05

visited the DOJ to review it and then

99:08

walked out and and said them. And I

99:10

still have to do I recognized a bunch of

99:12

the names. I still have to do more

99:13

homework on the other ones. The one that

99:15

I gave a [ __ ] about immediately was that

99:17

he was one. And it's like

99:21

>> five meions of

99:22

>> Yeah. Five mentions. There it is. Yeah.

99:24

Yeah.

99:25

>> All right. So, in the Can you just zoom

99:27

in a little bit, DeF?

99:29

>> Thank you, brother. So, in the morning,

99:31

Lesie Wexner became a billionaire. He

99:33

woke up worried, but this was not

99:37

unusual. He always wakes up worried

99:40

because of his dibbe which pokes and

99:42

prods and gives him the itchiness of

99:45

soul that he calls shikus. Some

99:49

sometimes he runs away from it on the

99:51

roads of Columbus or drives away from it

99:53

in his Porsche or flies away from it.

99:56

Can we get the next

99:58

>> instance?

99:58

>> Yeah, the next instance.

100:00

>> That's already creepy.

100:01

>> He met his dick again when he climbed

100:03

Veil Mountain and changed his life. All

100:05

right, let's go to the next one. I want

100:06

to see where they defined it. All right,

100:08

here it is. Perhaps it's time to

100:10

reintroduce Lesie Wexner's Dick, the

100:13

demon that always wakes up in the

100:16

morning with Wexner and tweaks and pulls

100:18

at him. When he was a boy, his father

100:20

called it tumel, a churning, so he feels

100:23

quote molten and unformed, pricricked by

100:26

the spiritual pins and needles. He met

100:29

this demon again when he was 40 and

100:31

already worth half a billion when he

100:33

climbed the mountain.

100:35

>> Wow. I mean,

100:37

>> what the heck?

100:38

>> Yeah, I feel like if I I feel like a

100:40

lawyer could work with that.

100:41

>> Why did they even Why did they even

100:43

print that?

100:44

>> They did saying

100:46

>> Okay, so he says that the DICE saying

100:48

more. What next? He went too fast and

100:52

got into trouble in 1979. He turned

100:54

operations over to some other [ __ ]

100:56

dude and did the buying himself. He was

100:58

always competitive. So the dick drives

101:00

him Yeah.

101:01

>> for more more and more money. Wow.

101:05

>> That's the other thing with these

101:07

people, Lisa. It's clear they like when

101:10

people talk about Satanism in this

101:12

stuff. It's it manifests not just quite

101:15

literally through like maybe doing some

101:17

weird ritual and bowing before a ball or

101:20

you know the devil, but it manifests in

101:22

worshiping things and worshiping

101:25

materialism and worshiping things that

101:27

you put above the value of humans.

101:31

>> Yeah.

101:32

Now, I do have to say this to be fair,

101:34

just like journalistically. Nancy Mace,

101:37

>> who I appreciate, has been really

101:39

pushing some things recently to try to

101:42

get this out.

101:43

>> She did say when they released the

101:46

files,

101:47

>> obviously they're awful, but she said

101:49

that she was told to be careful with

101:52

information you see related to, you

101:55

know, government reports and stuff like

101:57

that, like from 2020 and on. And the

102:01

reason she said this is valid.

102:04

>> Basically, once this case went

102:06

mainstream, you know how it goes. Just

102:09

like just like Harvey Weinstein probably

102:11

abused [ __ ] 2,000 women,

102:14

>> but like 40,000 women accused him of it

102:16

because they could get in on it. Your

102:18

schizophrenic neighbor could say that

102:20

that happened.

102:21

>> So, I will say I have read like some cuz

102:24

the FBI obviously they [ __ ] up their

102:26

job a ton here. Their job is to just

102:28

review any lead that comes in. So you

102:30

will see dead serious straight emails of

102:32

just FBI person one to FBI person two

102:35

saying like all right uh witness claims

102:38

that blank blank blank and there's no

102:40

like opinion on it. They're just

102:41

reporting to their colleague what they

102:43

said.

102:43

>> But there's quite a few emails I mean

102:45

hundreds of them that are way before

102:47

2020.

102:48

>> That's correct. That's correct. I'm just

102:49

saying for this one right here where

102:51

it's stated this is a December 2020 one.

102:54

So I have to say that

102:56

>> I'm aware of that. I mean I I you know

102:58

I'm the person well a lot of the

103:00

survivors are that came forward um you

103:04

know other victims come forward and they

103:06

speak to us about the you know uh their

103:08

assaults and things like that and many

103:11

many girls or women um I don't know if

103:14

there's this thing of you know Epstein

103:16

survivors being like the rock stars

103:18

these days you know people looking up to

103:20

them but quite a few have come forward

103:21

saying they're Epstein survivors and

103:23

then you get into their stories and then

103:25

you realize I've never even met

103:27

right?

103:28

>> You know, so I'm aware of that. Uh

103:30

>> remember the 911 lady

103:33

>> who who like ran the victim's fund and

103:35

claimed she was there and she literally

103:37

lived in Spain at the time and was

103:39

caught years later.

103:40

>> Yeah. It's ridiculous.

103:41

>> It's unfortunate because it hurts the

103:43

real victims.

103:43

>> No, exactly. I I agree. you know,

103:46

>> but that's, you know, as you said,

103:48

there's many emails prior to 2020

103:50

between these people where they were

103:51

talking in code about stuff and you

103:53

can't even like

103:55

>> rule out the stuff that it's it's just

103:58

like

103:59

it's nuts to me.

104:00

>> Yeah,

104:01

>> it's nuts. Now, when when when he died,

104:04

obviously you said this all kind of came

104:06

forward. What was your first thought

104:07

when he died? You're like, did you think

104:09

there's no way this guy unal aliveded

104:11

himself or do you think it's possible

104:13

that he did?

104:15

>> Um, I mean, the day that I found out was

104:19

pretty traumatic. I just focused on the

104:22

fact that he was dead.

104:24

>> Um, it wasn't until a few months later I

104:27

started speaking to other survivors and

104:28

started like thinking about the story

104:30

and started doing some documentaries and

104:32

things like that. So, it unfolded over

104:34

time. Um,

104:39

I'm trying to think of your question.

104:41

Um,

104:47

I think when I really thought about it,

104:50

there was no doubt in my mind that he

104:52

was probably murdered and not

104:55

>> taking his own life. I never thought he

104:57

took his own life.

104:59

Um, I just don't think just knowing the

105:02

type of person that he was that that was

105:04

something that he would do. I feel like

105:06

he had so much on so many people that he

105:08

wouldn't have a reason to and he would

105:09

have gotten off on it in some way

105:11

somehow,

105:12

>> right?

105:13

>> Technicality or something. They would

105:14

have made something up for him to get a

105:16

because I think that he was necessary

105:18

and needed by for whatever reason he was

105:21

there. So, um

105:26

I don't think they would have uh I don't

105:28

know. So many people say nowadays that

105:30

he's alive. Like I so many people say

105:33

that. I mean I I don't even think it's

105:34

true because only because I hope it's

105:35

not true. Um and the reason why I spoke

105:38

out was because he had died. Um I think

105:42

a lot of survivors are in fear if he

105:44

really is alive. Not that he can really

105:45

do anything now, but you never know. Um,

105:48

I think there's just a lot of fear that

105:50

comes with this man and just, you know,

105:54

being in the public eye and speaking out

105:56

about it just because there's just so

105:57

many layers of it.

106:00

>> So, I don't know, but I definitely don't

106:02

think that he

106:04

committed suicide.

106:06

>> Yeah, I I've always I agree.

106:10

>> And I've always thought he is in fact

106:12

dead. And as of right now, I still think

106:15

that.

106:15

>> Yeah. But once again, it's like after

106:17

all the crazy [ __ ] we're seeing, I have

106:19

to say it's on the table that maybe

106:21

>> he's not. I I had a guy Candace Gib

106:24

Gibson in here who became friends with a

106:26

couple chefs that worked on the cooking

106:28

team

106:29

>> afterwards.

106:30

>> Oh, yeah. Yeah.

106:30

>> And they think he's alive.

106:32

>> Why?

106:32

>> They said they said there's no similar

106:34

to the logic you said. There's like they

106:37

said a there's no way he would have he

106:40

would have offed himself because he was

106:41

too narcissistic.

106:43

>> And he always thought he could get out

106:44

of it. But why do we think he's alive?

106:46

>> Because they believed I Kendis was like

106:49

unclear on some of it. But

106:53

essentially like they believed he had

106:54

too much power and too much influence

106:58

over too many very important people to

107:01

not have some sort of outswitch.

107:04

>> Yeah.

107:05

Yeah. That's what I would have thought

107:07

that he always thought that he was going

107:08

to get away with it. So and be

107:11

protected. that's the reason why he was

107:12

able to do all that he was doing. Um,

107:16

but then again, if he was dead, they

107:18

already have everything. I mean, someone

107:21

has those videos from all of his homes

107:23

that saw everyone who went in and and

107:25

went out and who went into what door and

107:28

out of what door. So, almost like what

107:30

do they need him for when they have

107:31

everything that he could possibly tell

107:33

them, I would think is there,

107:35

>> right?

107:36

>> So,

107:38

I don't know. That's a hard one.

107:42

What if you look at all these people who

107:44

are like a part of the cover up now and

107:46

trying to not release this? They're

107:47

still, as of the time you and I are

107:49

talking, there's still two and a half

107:50

million documents that they say they're

107:52

never going to release. Forget redacted.

107:54

They're just never going to release

107:55

them. You know,

107:57

>> if they're never going to release three

107:59

more million documents, what the heck is

108:02

on them?

108:02

>> That's that's what I'm saying.

108:04

>> How can it be any darker, more

108:06

disturbing than what we've already seen?

108:08

Because that's what it means when they

108:09

say we're not going to release it.

108:11

There's a reason

108:17

there. There's like nothing on it. We're

108:19

not going to release them because

108:20

there's nothing on it. Obviously, there

108:22

is the worst stuff on it.

108:26

It's so hard to think about because

108:31

like look at the JFK thing, right? Just

108:33

with this example, you'll see where I'm

108:35

going with this. If you could point to

108:38

and I think again like the government

108:41

killed the guy. There were high level

108:43

people at the Pentagon and CIA

108:45

>> who did it.

108:47

>> I don't know let's say there's 100,000

108:48

people working at those two places at

108:50

the time.

108:51

>> Mhm.

108:52

>> Realistically

108:53

99,900

108:55

and some of them had no idea that was

108:57

going to happen that day.

108:58

>> Mhm. but they work at the Pentagon or

109:00

CIA or these places that have a name on

109:02

the door where very highlevel people

109:05

made the decision under the jurisdiction

109:08

of those organizations to do it.

109:10

>> If the American people ever got full

109:12

proof of that

109:14

>> and found out those places are shuttered

109:16

the next day.

109:18

>> And the reality is

109:21

for all the horrible [ __ ] that we know

109:23

organizations like that do. I mean it's

109:25

been well documented on this podcast the

109:27

horrible [ __ ] CIA does. There's there

109:29

are objectively also people there who

109:31

are actually doing their job and you

109:32

know stopping a terrorist attack.

109:34

>> Yes, of course. Exactly. That's the same

109:35

thing I think.

109:36

>> So what I'm saying is the weird thing is

109:39

with something now bringing back to the

109:41

Epstein case. If it were powerful enough

109:44

people that like the whole house of

109:46

cards came down, if all the information

109:48

came out at once and then like the the

109:52

[ __ ] country ceased to exist, if I'm

109:55

sitting on the other side and I know

109:58

that that's what's going to happen if

110:00

the information comes out,

110:03

I I can't even imagine having that

110:05

decision because you are covering up the

110:07

most vile crimes known to man.

110:09

>> Yeah.

110:12

Yeah, I agree. I don't know with when it

110:14

comes to cases like this, I just try to

110:15

look at the facts. So, let's let's say

110:17

let's say he did commit suicide, why

110:22

then everything would have just been

110:24

fine the way everything that the the

110:26

guard would have been awake, that there

110:28

wouldn't be missing tape, that

110:30

everything would just would just be in

110:32

place, right? But then why are there so

110:34

many things out of place that didn't

110:36

function right or why are there so many

110:38

discrepancies around just a suicide if

110:42

he really did take his life?

110:43

>> That's right.

110:44

>> Yeah.

110:45

>> It's very strange.

110:46

>> I mean this all you have to really look

110:47

at. If it was just so cut and dry,

110:50

everything would be in place like it was

110:52

a normal day. But why on that day

110:55

>> perfectly?

110:57

>> Everything just didn't go right. Why

111:01

>> do you see the document in the files

111:03

where they had the date the day before?

111:05

>> Yeah. Why is there so many weird They

111:08

make so many stupid mistakes.

111:10

>> You know,

111:12

>> the other thing that's so strange about

111:13

this case is it reveals how small the

111:16

elite circles really are. Everyone knows

111:19

everyone. You can trace a guy in 1974 to

111:22

someone in power now who's who was his

111:25

that guy's friend's golf buddy.

111:27

>> Oh, yeah. Well, because when you make a

111:29

certain amount of money, when you're in

111:30

that bracket, you only hang around those

111:32

people.

111:32

>> Yes.

111:32

>> Yeah. And it's a much smaller amount of

111:34

people.

111:35

>> Yeah.

111:35

>> Yeah.

111:36

>> Did you when you would be in in the

111:38

rooms like where you go in there and

111:39

it's all these old weird dudes?

111:43

>> Was there a feeling of like

111:46

there's them and they look at us as

111:48

like, oh yeah,

111:50

they're here, but they're not they're

111:52

not with us. They're just here at our

111:54

pleasure.

111:54

>> Yeah. I mean, of course, they don't

111:55

really want to get to know you,

111:57

>> right?

111:57

>> Yeah. It's almost just kind of weird

111:58

that you're even there,

112:00

>> right?

112:00

>> Yeah.

112:01

>> Now, what do you think of the whole

112:02

Gilen thing going on? Because now she

112:05

just pled the fifth or whatever, which I

112:07

guess is her constitutional right to do,

112:08

but she's been sent to a minimum

112:10

security prison.

112:11

>> If that was even her,

112:13

>> if that was even her,

112:14

>> didn't even look anything like her.

112:15

>> The nose was definitely

112:17

>> his whole face. It was so weird.

112:20

Like that really freaked me out. That

112:23

was the first time I saw like where is

112:24

Galen? Where did she go? That is not

112:27

her. They put like a fake Galin in there

112:30

>> to answer the questions, you know.

112:33

This whole thing gets like weirder and

112:35

weirder.

112:35

>> It gets weirder and weirder.

112:37

>> Where do they take her?

112:43

I mean, I really do hope that's her, but

112:44

if they took her out of there, like this

112:46

is just the weirdest. We live We live

112:49

like in the Twilight Zone,

112:52

right? It's like you can't make this

112:53

[ __ ] up. all all the things that like I

112:57

said used to be like come on now it's

113:00

like that's on the table and I'm trying

113:03

like in my

113:03

>> but these things were were were told

113:05

years and years ago

113:07

>> you know people just died once they

113:09

talked about it y

113:10

>> you know

113:11

>> now it was like you can't kill everybody

113:12

now it's all out there you know

113:15

>> yeah it's hard like to do it

113:18

journalistically too cuz you're like you

113:20

want to stick to all the facts and then

113:22

you see a lot of code words and stuff

113:24

and you're Like we don't have full

113:26

facts, but man, if that were a mob case,

113:28

that looks You look guilty.

113:30

>> Yeah.

113:31

>> Right.

113:31

>> Mhm. Yeah.

113:33

>> And how about the fact that all these

113:34

people

113:36

>> Yeah.

113:37

>> feel so comfortable

113:39

>> in their position in society

113:43

that they openly send all this stuff on

113:46

email, open source email to each other.

113:48

>> Well, they never thought anyone was

113:50

going to look at those emails. They

113:52

never thought anyone was ever going to

113:53

see those emails. They never thought

113:54

they were ever going to release it,

113:58

those files.

113:59

>> All right, let me go one step further

114:00

with you, though. I don't know if this

114:02

changes your opinion, but we're talking

114:04

about billionaires and stuff. What

114:06

happens with billionaires a lot?

114:08

>> Mhm.

114:08

>> They get sued.

114:09

>> Yeah.

114:10

>> What happens in civil courts when you

114:12

get sued? You have discovery, which

114:14

means your emails are discoverable. I

114:16

don't think they ever thought epines

114:17

were going to be.

114:19

>> There's no freaking way they're writing

114:20

that type of stuff. Yeah.

114:22

>> Thinking it's ever going to be out

114:23

there. I mean, Bill Gates never thought

114:25

any of that stuff Bill Gates never

114:27

thought any of that stuff was ever going

114:28

to be out there. There's no way. I'm

114:31

sure they fought like tooth and nail to

114:33

make sure those wouldn't come out. But

114:35

>> yeah, some of it's out now.

114:37

>> Well, it's just the only thing that's

114:39

happening to these men is they're being

114:42

embarrassed in society. That's all.

114:44

People get to laugh about it for a

114:45

little while and they get to go on with

114:47

their lives.

114:50

>> I hope not. I hope I hope some of them

114:54

really do see justice with this.

114:57

>> Well, that's up to our justice

114:58

department, isn't it?

114:59

>> Yes, it is.

115:00

>> Whether they want to do something about

115:01

it or not.

115:02

>> It is.

115:02

>> I mean, they have they have total

115:04

capability of doing so. They have

115:06

everything in front of them to make the

115:08

right decision and to, you know, go

115:11

after them civily or criminally.

115:14

>> Absolutely.

115:14

>> Yeah. Let's see what happens. Let's see

115:16

what unfolds.

115:18

Well, I really appreciate you not only

115:21

going through everything, but also being

115:24

brave enough to speak out about this for

115:26

so many years now and represent not just

115:29

as you said the voices for this case who

115:31

can't speak out or might even be dead

115:34

and really can't speak out, but also the

115:36

voices for people around the world and

115:37

other cases who feel

115:40

>> pressured to not be able to say

115:42

anything. It's it's a really important

115:44

example you're setting every day and and

115:46

I

115:46

>> thank you. I hope you can see the uh

115:49

can't change what happened to you, but

115:52

you know the positive force you're now

115:54

using on the other side of it to make

115:56

some change. I think it's really really

115:57

amazing.

115:58

>> Oh, that's awesome. Thank you for saying

115:59

that. I do see the difference now. And

116:02

being there and doing this and I I never

116:05

thought if you told me a year ago that I

116:07

was going to be at Capitol Hill and at

116:09

the State of the Union, like all these

116:11

things, I would never have believed you.

116:13

But it's it's so important and I you

116:15

know I can't stop now and I look forward

116:18

to season two of my podcast where I can

116:19

have more survivors on and you know and

116:22

have them tell those stories and have

116:23

them have their moments as well.

116:25

>> Yeah. We got to get we got to get Sarah

116:27

on there.

116:27

>> That's what we all need. We need we need

116:29

those moments, you know, that make us

116:30

feel like we have some justice.

116:32

>> Absolutely.

116:34

>> All right. All right. Well, Lisa, thank

116:34

you so much and I I wish you and all the

116:38

victims all the best and hopefully you

116:41

actually see some justice for all the

116:43

things that happened here.

116:44

>> Yeah, thank you.

116:45

>> All right. Appreciate that.

116:47

>> Everybody else, you know what it is.

Interactive Summary

The speaker recounts her experiences with Jeffrey Epstein, detailing initial reluctance to meet him due to his reputation, but ultimately complying due to agency pressure. She describes the manipulative tactics used to make her feel comfortable, including discussions about her goals and ambitions, and even a call with a billionaire. However, this was followed by unwanted massages and sexual assault, which she initially struggled to process due to the grooming and her belief that Epstein had helped her career. The transcript highlights the psychological manipulation involved, comparing it to other abuse cases. It also touches upon the broader issues of exploitation in the modeling and entertainment industries, the complicity of some women in these systems, and the difficulty survivors face in identifying and reporting abuse. The conversation then delves into Epstein's childhood, the nature of psychological manipulation, and the complexities of his relationships with powerful individuals. Later sections discuss the impact of the abuse on the speaker's personal life, including her relationships and motherhood, and her journey towards healing through therapy. The discussion also touches on the dark aspects of Epstein's world, including cult-like behavior, potential Satanism, and the influence of powerful figures, as well as the challenges faced by victims in seeking justice and the ongoing struggle for accountability. Finally, the speaker reflects on her family relationships and her spiritual beliefs, emphasizing the importance of safety and unconditional love.
