#227: The 5th Annual Jeffrey Epstein Celebrity Telethon (feat. Felix Biederman, Liz Franczak, & Brace Belden)
Added 2024-10-25 05:06:45 +0000 UTCHow did the biggest American political scandal since 9/11 become Content Slop? Why do we have a school shooter-based economy? Is information real?
All this, and so much more, with legends @byyourlogic, @liz_franczak, and @TrueAnonPod.

At first I laughed at Brace for bitching about the vape but damn it actually is pretty annoying😆 Great episode, thanks guys

2024-11-17 02:28:01 +0000 UTCAt around the 49:45 mark there's like 6 hits back to back and every consecutive hit was funnier

2024-11-08 21:12:37 +0000 UTCit's the 12- or 13-part series about the PROMIS software scandal and the very sketchy death of Danny Casolaro, who was working on a huge investigation that pulled PROMIS together with loads of other shit, including Epstein long before anybody knew who he was – for some reason I can't remember the series title
Michael S. Judge
2024-11-05 21:19:35 +0000 UTCMJ: Brace describing the dark force released into the world after Epstein’s murder sounds like your description of (a lot of things I think but in particular) the nuke in TP: the Return.

2024-11-02 19:22:59 +0000 UTCI don’t think they’re talking about leftists. They’re talking about generalized amorphous “apolitical” extremely online guys. I could be wrong tho.
Chris
2024-11-02 19:22:17 +0000 UTCCan someone plse explain or give me an example of the type of leftist they describe as “i’m shizo” ? I’ve never seen it. I’m in ireland so maybe its on its way over here who knows …

2024-10-29 11:12:45 +0000 UTCshit thanks for reminding me, i have that Flesh Simulator vid bookmarked but haven't watched it yet
Karl Childers
2024-10-28 21:32:30 +0000 UTCGhost Stories is great, though I would say to anyone looking to jump in that the PROMIS series may not be the best starting point. My first exposure to Matt’s stuff was the first PROMIS ep and I bounced off that hard—it was just very dry and technical, and I wasn’t locked into his more sedate energy yet. I would, tho, recommend his early episode on James Jesus Angleton. It’s self-contained, engaging, and gives a good feel for his whole vibe.
Ashley Naftule
2024-10-28 21:24:37 +0000 UTCIt aint fully slop until Epstine, played by kevin spacey, is a villain in a todd phillips comedy ... but I'm still waiting on a Hangover prequel where Bush, Johnson and Ford wake up one November 1963 morning in Dallas to find that they may have partied a little too hard.

2024-10-28 20:50:35 +0000 UTCIdk I think Programmed to Kill is a very fascinating book and a lot of subsequent research into the interconnectivity of the deep state and the serial killer phenomenon has brought it more credulity. Franklin Scandal, Aberration In the Heartland of the Real, and recently Eye of the Chickenhawk as well as Flesh Simulator’s video Serial Killing for Fun and Profit have a lot of concrete, annotated, FOIA’d, and publicly recorded information that are directly showing you that these dark power networks exist on paper and not just witness testimony. I find this stuff is interlinked with the P2 Lodge, Gladio, strategy of tension, Epstein, etc. all things that D/C has talked about or alluded too. Not to dick ride Jimmy as I found the accusation of the “dirtbag leftist podnetwork” as an intelligence operation annoying and it detracted from his episodes, a lot of which were very well researched using historical documents. I think my main difference of opinion with that sphere of parapoltics is the gnostic christian moral worldview. As for Subliminal Jihad they ended up being way too fucking smarmy and on a listening level I found hard to enjoy, although their series on the history of Palestine and it’s oppression is decent. I feel like it was just disappointing to follow a bunch of these guys for their genuine interest and research into subjects I wanted to learn about and then see them throwing bitch fits on twitter lol

aerides
2024-10-27 18:17:42 +0000 UTCjesus, i just ran "bloempie van eigen tuin" through google translate and if that's a euphemism for what i think it is then that's one of the most chilling phrases i've ever heard. if you're a fan of Death//Corner then i really can't recommend Ghost Stories enough, his work is excellent especially his series on Danny Casolaro & PROMIS which Michael alluded to in this episode.
Karl Childers
2024-10-27 17:39:42 +0000 UTCKind of alarming that nobody warned Felix of the hiss from an audible natural gas leak in his apartment. Fun ep though! It’s nice to hear Michael having a good time crackin wise
Percy Plump
2024-10-27 17:21:06 +0000 UTCThank you, that means the world. Was offline for a year due to sobriety and going through MSJ’s catalogue again for the second time. Approaching it from the concept of “palenkind” or “bloempie van eigen tuin” again due to my mentor’s Indonesian heritage but I still need Epstein and the Dutroux case as focal points, navels, or ciphers.
ardenwezenberg@hotmail.com
2024-10-27 16:52:44 +0000 UTCGhost Stories For The End Of The World podcast just wrapped up an extraordinary series on this subject, i doubt there's very much that Michael or any other podcast could add to their coverage
Karl Childers
2024-10-27 16:43:01 +0000 UTCYeah I understand that. The Painting episodes are good because he just lets her talk the whole time and she basically outlines the entire book with some personal anecdotes of how she researched it and what her life was like while writing it. She is also on the Ghostbusters episode which I personally thought was not very good but I highly recommend the main interview. On the other hand, you could just read her book and skip the podcast as it's the same material. As for his reliability, the others that I enjoyed were about the Templar and rosicrucians and freemasonry and the crusades. Again he has a guest who seems knowledgeable. But in truth I know nothing about those topics (and don't care THAT much) so who knows if it was all bunk. But I'm listening to the United Fruit one now which is something I do know about and so far he's been accurate.
aerides
2024-10-27 16:39:47 +0000 UTCincredible ep, but please share the gofundme to get Felix a mic cover
John Arena
2024-10-27 16:01:36 +0000 UTC@MichaelSJudge will you or have you made anything on the Marc Dutroux case and the "roze baletten", or "pink ballets" and its connections to the Brabant Killers? And if not, do you have any suggestions research wise? Thank you for you and your brother's continued work. Lobi from Amsterdam.

Juan Sacchi
2024-10-27 15:48:05 +0000 UTCthat wendy painting interview does sound fascinating, i might check that out. there's certainly something to be said for separating wheat from chaff but when someone displays such poor judgement in throwing around flimsy accusations and credulously repeating bunk it makes me have to question everything else they say too & then i can't trust anything they say without verifying it from other sources, at which point why bother with the crankish source in the first place
Karl Childers
2024-10-27 14:18:40 +0000 UTCIt didn't go anywhere bc the narrative, which I don't believe, is he "only" trafficked in teenage girls (which is horrific enough, but doesn't hit people like little kids and/or little boys), and they killed him pretty quickly. Which left a ton of dead ends that he never got to illuminate in court. Somehow he ran the biggest pedophile network on earth with no customers, which of course is bullshit but we can't prove it. All we have is a dead guy and a black book. The Belgian establishment has had great luck convincing its people that Dutroux was a "lone nut" but the investigation still went on a lot longer and gave them a harder time. They had all those 'X witnesses.' The American establishment nipped that shit right in the bud. All your average person can do is go "huh, that's weird."

2024-10-27 07:19:53 +0000 UTCI've never understood the appeal of SJ. I tried a few episodes and can't get through it at all. Just innuendo like you say, and if you know anything about some of their topics, you really see the holes in it all. PTC had some good episodes. Ive listened to a handful. Dude does seem like he's a crank, the Beatles and McGowan stuff is silly for example. But he once let Wendy Painting talk for like 12 hours straight and it was like taking a fascinating trip inside her mind, I learned so much. His episodes on Walter Breen are also good, also the ones on crusades and early secret societies and their lore. He did a long 15 part series about United Fruit that I've just started. His voice is annoying, altered I think, and he's definitely paranoid and credulous about some things but I think there's plenty in PTK catalog worth listening to. (I ignore the personal accusations, don't care about that at all.)

2024-10-25 23:46:57 +0000 UTCi'm barely on twitter so i missed that, but i did listen to SJ a couple of years ago for a bit until i realized that everything they say is just innuendo without ever staking out any concrete claims. if i am right about the DMs coming from SJ i intuited it on a vibes level just from seeing those two as trolls. as for PTK i've never heard a non-crank talk seriously about mcgowan so idk i never checked it out. sounds like PTK's not beating the crank allegations tho

2024-10-25 22:58:26 +0000 UTCoh boy that “discourse” was fun, kinda sucked to see because I did enjoy PTK a lot as a resource and some SJ but like wasn’t fun to see them being aggro towards Death Corner.
Pear Is A Patsy
2024-10-25 22:53:28 +0000 UTCI think it cuz I was listening to it in my car for the first 15mins and it had some eq fuck my ear setting that made the gurgling so pronounced, when it’s just playing off the iphone it’s a non issue, can barely pick it up. Eitherway great ep, not a car listening one though or maybe my car just sucks. I dunno.

Brian Levy
2024-10-25 16:04:23 +0000 UTCI think a big reason why the intelligence/deep state blob, whatever you want to call it, is never far from these stories where powerful individuals get away with doing truly depraved shit for years on end, is that one of the functions of the intelligence apparatus is stress-testing (or means-testing) the outrage of the majority of us who exist outside those circles of power. I don't intuit that Ed Buck was as much of a hub as Epstein - many many more threads crisscrossing the cork board with Epstein. But he's a useful example nonetheless: when you do x to x number of x individuals for x number of years, x number of civil rights groups are needed to compel the state to bring charges, and your penalty is x years in prison, which you will serve at x facility.
Rohmer Simpson
2024-10-25 16:00:35 +0000 UTCEd Buck, one of the most harrowing stories of this type for sure. Major Democratic donor/power player in SF Bay area who was luring vulnerable Black young men and boys to live with him and then intentionally getting them hooked on meth till they achieved the cadaverously skinny look he was erotically fixated on, then most likely murdered them with laced drugs. *edit* Looked it up and it turns out he was LA-based, not SF
