0:00 Yeah. >> And then you go, "Oh, well, you there's no denying it now." My my position on is completely shifted. I thought >> there's probably some really sick people that have an appetite for that, but I hadn't seen any real evidence for it until these files. And now they're like, "Oh, this is demonic. This is clearly demonic. Why would your name be redacted if you're not a victim?" Like, this is what's crazy about all this. Like, how come you redact some people and you don't redact other people? Like, what is this? This is not good. None of this is good for this administration. It looks [ __ ] terrible. It looks terrible. >> All right. So, as you may know by now, Joe Rogan's been actively avoiding the Epstein files like the plague for the last 2 weeks, as it puts him in sort of an uncomfortable position regarding his
0:47 relationships with these super powerful billionaire elites that he's cozied up to recently. But now that the files are basically the only thing his recent guests want to talk about, there's simply just no way around this for Rogan. Like between the horrifying emails involving children and the administration's attempt to redact the names of Epstein's co-conspirators, there's really no other thing to do than for Rogan to face the ugly reality of it all. So, in his most recent podcast with Dr. Robert Malone, he basically admits that the emails about the children shook him to the core. So much so that his entire position has shifted on the matter and that, you know, perhaps Mike Benz swayed him into thinking that it was anything other than terrifying and shocking. And we're still getting to the
1:32 bottom of it. It's completely changed most people's narrative of what happened. like we had this sort of vague understanding, you know, but when you see in the email like clear evidence that they're talking about children >> in in pretty obscene ways, >> horrifying ways. So that was the thing that like even I when I talked to Mike Benz about that, he was sort of incredulous about that. It's like >> I don't think they would use children. It just doesn't make any sense if it got caught. But it just seems like >> Yeah. If if Mike Benz was incredulous >> that's pretty big. >> I Well, I just don't think we really knew until we saw those files come out and then you go, "Oh, well, you there's no denying it now." My My position on this completely shifted. I thought
2:18 there's probably some really sick people that have an appetite for that, but I hadn't seen any real evidence for it until these files. And now they're like, "Oh, this is demonic. This is clearly demonic." I'm not I'm not watching this. >> I don't even want to I don't even want people send it to me and I go, "Okay." Because I'm for the most part off social media, >> but every now and then someone will send me something that I have to look at. I'm like, "Oh my god." >> Yeah. >> So, just like every human on Earth, Joe is disgusted by what he read in the files and is now completely convinced that Epstein and Co were into some really creepy stuff involving kids. But you see, the crazy part about this whole thing is that Joe Rogan's just now coming to this conclusion, 16 days after the files dropped. I mean, if this were
3:04 10 years ago, the second those files came out, Joe would have had Alex Jones on the podcast for 6 hours straight to deep dive into the rabbit hole with him and get to the bottom of the entire thing. But if you didn't know by now, modern-day Joe Rogan has completely changed, and for the worst, might I add. So, this new Joe instead avoided even looking at the files, stating that he tried to have experts on the show to really break it down to him. >> Have Do you spend a lot of time reading reading them? >> No, I try not to. I try to have experts come on. I try to read. >> You just You can't change it. Yeah. >> And it'll with your head. >> Yeah. It's like toxic. >> You will really get >> It'll stick with your that I And I know I've tried not to. >> Yeah. Um,
3:49 >> so you're telling me that the king of the do your own research crowd isn't looking into one of the biggest conspiracy drops of all time and that he'd rather just have experts on to explain it to him? I mean, I don't even think you need to be an expert to read words in an email. And really, the only quote unquote expert on the matter that he had on was Mike Benz, who was completely biased and stated that Epstein's victims were girls that juiced deals. uh you know in countries that don't necessarily have the same norms about that >> that we do. Um you can very easily see someone getting involved in that just because girls juice deals >> and >> so no one is buying that Joe wasn't interested in the files. Also the guest that he said this to Cheryl Hines well
4:35 her husband is RFK Jr. who also comes up in the files a few times as he apparently went fossil hunting with Jiz Lane and Jeffrey, rode on the man's jet a few times, and is in several pictures with him back in the day. Of course, there's nothing immediately tying RFK Jr. to Epstein's crimes, but he overall seems to have been way more involved with the guy than he admits to. >> So, to be clear, you're not concerned about anything that could come out about you and Jeffrey Epstein. uh my plane rides with Jeffrey Ebstein. I went I took two plane rides with him. Once in 1993 when I went down to visit my mother in Palm Beach, remember Jeff nobody knew about anything about Jeffrey Abstein's nefarious activities till
5:21 2006. Oh, he was a public figure in uh and a big philanthropist in New York and many many people knew him. My wife knew his girlfriend, Glenn Maxwell, and uh and they offered us a ride when we were going down to see my mother. I was with two children and my wife on the plane at that time. I knew nothing about Jeffrey Epstein. And then I think one or two years later. We went took my kids fossil hunting in uh in on the Pineriidge Reservation in South Dakota. Of course, you know, I I ran across Jeffrey Hubstein at parties. I mean, at at fundraisers, the Robin Hood fundraiser in New York, of course, Joe Rogan didn't bring that up with
6:07 Hines, though. Like, whenever RFK Jr. came up, they only ever mentioned all the great things he's doing for the administration and everything while conveniently acting too busy and unbothered to look into the files. I mean, Joe paints it like it's this arduous task where he'd have to finally comb through millions of documents to read anything crazy, and that it would leave him mentally scarred. But all the horrifying stuff was already neatly condensed on basically every social media platform in existence. I mean, Joe acts like he's never on social media or anything, but he's literally always talking about the new cool stuff AI can create, and he's even admitted to running his own Instagram. So, right off the bat, Joe's really just exposing himself here. But anyways, shortly after that podcast with Hines, that whole story about the DOJ redacting Epstein's
6:53 alleged co-conspirators came out, and Joe's reaction to it all was pretty telling, too, because he didn't flat out say that the administration was horrible. He instead said it was a horrible look. Like, he's more worried about how it's making them look instead of what it actually says about what happened. >> Um, so Ebstein was saying that, "Where are you? Are you okay? I love the torture video. >> Geez. >> I am in China. I'll be in the US second week of May. What the [ __ ] man? And why is his name redacted? Why would your name be redacted if you're not a victim? Like, this is what's crazy about all this. Like, how come you redact some people and you don't redact other people? >> Like, what is this? This is not good.
7:40 None of this is good for this administration. It looks [ __ ] terrible. >> It looks terrible. It looks terrible for Trump when he was saying that none of this was real. This is all a hoax. This is not a hoax. Like, did you not know? Maybe he didn't know if you want to be charitable, but this is definitely not a hoax. And if you got redacted people's names and these people aren't victims, you're not protecting the victim. So, what are you doing, >> right? >> And how come all this is not released? So, the sheer fact that Joe Rogan says it's making the administration look terrible instead of saying the administration is just outright terrible pretty much tells you everything. Like this entire thing is about optics to Joe. He's more so thinking about the narrative and their reputation like he has been for the past 2 years. So, this
8:26 is not a massive W like people think it is. Like, this isn't Joe turning on Trump like the headlines make it out to be. This is actually Joe stubbornly admitting that his pals are probably horrible people. And let's not forget that he's never even mentioned how Elon Musk was involved in the files, too. Because even though Elon swears that all these emails of him wanting to go to the island are fake, I just find it odd that his own daughter came out on threads saying that she believes that at least one of the emails was true, stating, "I can confirm that we were in St. Bars at the time specified in the emails and therefore I believe they are authentic which is referring to the string of emails between Elon and Epstein where Elon mentioned that he'd be in St. Barts over the holidays and was wondering if he could visit the island. You would
9:12 assume since they're pretty much in the same location. So that one email seems authentic. But of course, Joseph H. Rogan doesn't talk about any of that. You know, Joe's the type of guy to instead have an Elon Musk glazer on his show who downplays the files, says that Jeffrey never used compromising videos as blackmail and insinuated that there were mostly just of age adult women that were around Epstein. >> That's a very specific illicit desire to want underage people. >> Well, a very How do you even find out that someone's into that? Well, I don't think that the majority or anything close to it of of the women were technically I mean I think it was largely >> very young um you know barely legal so
10:00 to speak but and I know that there were cases of underage but I you know I think >> most of it it was just >> most of it was just very very young but not >> not like 20y old not like 13y old type thing and then yeah remember because this is an international enterprise and many of the clients are like uh you know in countries that don't necessarily have the same norms about that >> that we do. um you can very easily see someone getting involved in that just because girls juice deals. And so I I don't think that Epstein so these Epstein files and Joe's response to them are absolutely damaging his reputation just based on the fact that he's not reacting to them like he would have in the past. Like he's not
10:45 talking about Musk in them and he hasn't talked about Peter Atia either or any of the other guys that he once had on his podcast who are now linked to Epstein. Like when he talked about how he was mentioned in the files for not going to the island, he didn't even mention the name of the guy who linked Epstein and Rogan together, Lawrence Krauss. And he definitely knew that guy's name. >> How long it was going on. >> I'm in the files for not going. >> Huh? >> Yeah, I'm in the files for not going cuz Jeffrey Epstein was trying to meet with me. >> Oh, I did see that. >> Yeah. And I was like, what? >> You're like, no thanks. >> Yeah. >> Aren't you glad? >> Yeah, but I would have never went anyway. It's like it's not even a possibility that I would ever want. Especially after I Googled him. >> I was like, "What the [ __ ] are you talking about?" This was like 2017. One of my guests was trying to get me to
11:30 meet him. >> I was like, "Bitch, are you high?" >> Like, "What the [ __ ] are you talking about?" >> For what reason would you what what would be >> if I was a a guy who is like sucking up to the rich and powerful. If I was really interested in hanging out with rich and powerful people, >> you know, it's crazy. Um, >> so things are toppling fast for the guys who once gave Donald Trump a back rub on their podcasts for three hours each and a lot of them are jumping ship now. Like Andrew Schultz seems to have fully turned on the administration and the people in the files lately. As on his most recent podcast, he completely tore Peter Ailla to shreds since Peter, I guess, gave some attitude to the flagrant guys when he went on their podcast and acted above them when they asked him what the best supplements were. So now they're torching him for
12:16 being obsessed with Epstein and how he showed up in the files saying he had Jeffrey Epstein withdrawal along with how he told Epstein that there are no calories included when you go down on a woman. Like the average person that had sent insane emails to Jeffrey Epstein is probably not coming on the podcast and being a dick when Mark asks him what his stack is. the average person. >> That was great. I just love the fact that he was [ __ ] on you. But >> oh my god, Mark was so happy when he when he read Peter and see his name all over the files and Peter was acting like the loosest [ __ ] on the planet. He wouldn't even tell you what supplements he took and he's [ __ ]
13:02 emailing Epstein. Oh, I wish you had your life. You're such a naughty little boy. What was this personality that he was devoid of on this podcast that he asked to come on? >> I know. >> Yeah. I asked him about supplements and he was like, "I don't want to talk about supplements." >> And I was like, "Is [ __ ] carb free?" And he was like, "Dude, I'm glad you brought up. >> Glad you asked." >> Yeah. >> No, I know you felt good about that one. >> So, it's just pretty funny that Andrew Schultz and Joe Rogan both had on Peter at yet only Andrew Schultz is talking about Ita. Meanwhile, Rogan's pretending like he has zero clue about the entire thing. And there's absolutely no chance that he didn't see Peter Aia was in the files. Like he even publicly put out a statement about it and it was being posted everywhere for a couple days there. Rogan simply just too cowardly to
13:48 say anything about it. But anyways, Andrew Schultz also went in on Trump, Patel, and Bondi and how they seemingly and allegedly lied about the files for so long, which obviously Joseph would never in 100 years do. >> Put pressure on the right people. Okay, so now that we know that everybody from Trump Patel Bondi Bongino like everybody that was involved in this, ah, this is just a hoax. We don't have anything like >> they're all on record saying versions of this right? >> With the latest trunch, all of that is a lie. Yes. Right. We has it been proven effectively that is complete falsehood. >> What exactly is a falsehood? the statements that this is just a Democrat hoax and this is I don't even know what that means.
14:35 >> I guess he's trying to frame it like this is a witch hunt against me. I did nothing wrong. They're trying to use this to slander my name >> and they wouldn't use it when they were in power. Like to me they also know like both sides are incriminated in this. >> Mhm. So, even though flipping on Trump and that crowd after helping them get elected is annoying and super low of Schultz, it's still better than riding with the guy through thick and thin like Rogan's doing. Like, Andrew is doing what all of Joe Rogan's fans thought he'd do. But news flash, guys, Joe Rogan isn't the same guy as he was in 2018. Like, he's in way too deep here. I mean, there's even theories going around saying that Rogan's allegedly texting and calling Trump all the time, meeting him at the White House and just in general getting the script before his
15:21 podcasts every day. Not to mention Joe buddying up with all these creepy billionaires on his podcast more and more. Like, he's in way deeper than a lot of his comedy pals. But hey, you know, at least he has Tony Hinchcliffe, which is so funny. I mean, after all this is said and done, the only comics left in Austin will be those two. And speaking of Tony Hinchcliffe, he just embarrassingly defended Trump's affiliation with Epstein on his show, Kill Tony. I covered that on my brand new Patreon channel just yesterday. So, if you want to support the channel, head over there and subscribe for five bucks. The links in the description down below. Either way, this whole thing just looks super bad for all of them, even for the ones turning on Trump. Like, as I've always said, they doomed themselves when they got involved with politics. I mean,
16:07 no one's ever asked them to talk about this stuff or interview all these figures, but they went down that path and supported some really twisted, powerful people, and no one's ever going to forget that. But anyways, that is it for the video. Thanks so much for watching.
