    Andrew of Arabia: The Imagined Future of Andrew’s Arabian Hideaway (11/5/25)
    Nov 5 2025
    This season, the scandal goes global. After a spectacular fall from grace, a certain royal exile trades his crown for a keffiyeh in what can only be described as the most bizarre royal reinvention since abdication became trendy. Whisked away by an Arabian billionaire with a taste for damaged prestige, the disgraced duke lands in a desert mansion where luxury drips from every gold faucet — and the only thing drier than the climate is his credibility. The British press calls it “a fresh start.” The rest of the world calls it “a cover story wrapped in SPF 50.”

    Welcome to Prince Andrew of Arabia — the sun-scorched satire you didn’t know you needed. In this absurd royal odyssey, the Queen’s most infamous son discovers that while the desert may hide many sins, it can’t bury them all. From falcons to faux humility, from scandal to sandstorms, watch as the world’s least self-aware aristocrat tries to turn disgrace into destiny — and ends up sweating under a hotter spotlight than ever before.

  • Lawmakers Demand Answers From The DOJ About Why The Epstein Investigation Was Shut Down (11/5/25)

    Lawmakers Demand Answers From The DOJ About Why The Epstein Investigation Was Shut Down (11/5/25)
    Nov 5 2025
    Lawmakers led by Jamie Raskin are demanding full transparency from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) over the abrupt termination of the investigation into alleged co-conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. According to the letter from Raskin, nearly fifty survivors supplied detailed testimony identifying at least twenty individuals as part of a sophisticated trafficking ring, yet the probe—originally active under the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York—was transferred to DOJ headquarters and effectively halted in January 2025. Investigators then issued a memo stating they had found no evidence warranting further charges, a conclusion Raskin faulted as ignoring the victims’ credible disclosures.

  • The Blame Game: Feds vs. Banks in the Epstein Scandal (11/5/25)

    The Blame Game: Feds vs. Banks in the Epstein Scandal (11/5/25)
    Nov 5 2025
    Federal regulators say the financial sector — particularly big banks — failed to act on obvious red flags in the case of Jeffrey Epstein’s financial network, and now they’re pointing fingers at each other. Agencies like the U.S. Treasury Department and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency assert that banks should have detected and reported Epstein’s suspicious transactions years ago and triggered law-enforcement action. Meanwhile, some banks claim they did file reports or raise internal alarms but regulators ignored or delayed follow-up investigations, essentially accusing federal agencies of failing to enforce or respond to the alerts.

    On the flip side, financial institutions argue they were operating under murky guidance and rely on regulators to interpret complex anti-money-laundering laws — now they say the feds didn’t act promptly or clearly once files were submitted. This blame-game has escalated as lawsuits proliferate: banks claim regulators pushed responsibility back onto them, while regulators argue that banks willfully overlooked their compliance duties and expect bail-outs or leniency rather than accountability. The result is a stalemate where neither side wants to claim full fault, and victims of Epstein’s crimes are still waiting for clarity and justice.

  • The Billionaires Playboy Club: A Memoir By Virginia Roberts (Chapter 20) (11/5/25)

    The Billionaires Playboy Club: A Memoir By Virginia Roberts (Chapter 20) (11/5/25)
    Nov 5 2025
    Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s unpublished memoir The Billionaire’s Playboy Club recounts her recruitment into Jeffrey Epstein’s world as a 16-year-old working at Mar-a-Lago, where she says Ghislaine Maxwell lured her in with promises of opportunity and travel. The manuscript describes how she became trapped in Epstein’s orbit, allegedly forced into sexual encounters with powerful men, including Prince Andrew, and ferried across his properties in New York, Florida, and the Virgin Islands. Giuffre paints a detailed picture of coercion, psychological manipulation, and the disturbing normalization of exploitation within Epstein’s high-society circle.


    In this episode, we begin our journey through that memoir.

  • The OIG Report Into Jeffrey Epstein's Non Prosecution Agreement (Part 55-56) (11/5/25)

    The OIG Report Into Jeffrey Epstein's Non Prosecution Agreement (Part 55-56) (11/5/25)
    Nov 5 2025
    The Jeffrey Epstein non-prosecution agreement (NPA) of 2007-08, reviewed by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR), detailed how federal prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida negotiated a deal that effectively ended an active federal investigation into Epstein’s alleged trafficking and abuse of underage girls. The agreement granted broad immunity to Epstein and unnamed “potential co-conspirators,” allowed him to plead guilty to state charges instead of facing major federal sex-trafficking counts, and did so without informing or consulting the victims before the deal was executed. The OPR found that while no evidence of corruption or impermissible influence was uncovered, the decision represented “poor judgment” by the prosecutors.


    Further, the report underscored significant procedural deficiencies: victims were not made aware of the NPA, the USAO did not meaningfully engage with them in accordance with the Crime Victims’ Rights Act’s principles, and the immunity granted in the NPA curtailed future federal prosecution of Epstein’s associates—even as investigation into other victims and broader criminal conduct may have persisted. In short, the OPR concluded that the case resolution was legally within the prosecutors’ discretion, but deeply flawed in its execution and fairness to those harmed.

  • Andrew And All Of His Empty Bluster About Meeting The Allegations Against Him Head On

    Andrew And All Of His Empty Bluster About Meeting The Allegations Against Him Head On
    Nov 5 2025
    In late 2019, Prince Andrew sat down for his now-infamous BBC Newsnight interview, claiming that he would “meet the allegations head-on” concerning his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and the accusations made by Virginia Giuffre. He insisted that he had “no recollection of ever meeting” Giuffre, denied any sexual contact with her, and even offered an alibi involving a family trip to Pizza Express in Woking. The Duke portrayed his relationship with Epstein as one of poor judgment rather than complicity, saying he only stayed friends with the disgraced financier to sever ties “honorably.” His insistence that the association had been “very useful” for business and social connections further fueled public outrage, painting him as detached and tone-deaf in the face of serious allegations.

    The fallout was swift and brutal. What Andrew described as an attempt to clear his name became a PR catastrophe that effectively ended his public life. The interview was condemned for his lack of remorse, his robotic demeanor, and his failure to express sympathy for Epstein’s victims. Within days, major institutions and charities cut ties with him, and Buckingham Palace announced that he would be stepping down from royal duties indefinitely. His promise to cooperate with U.S. investigators later proved hollow, as American prosecutors repeatedly complained that he had not made himself available for questioning. The man who vowed to “meet it head-on” instead retreated into silence, leaving his credibility — and his legacy — in tatters.
