In this explosive episode, I’m joined by Shaun Attwood to examine why the latest Epstein files have reignited serious questions around Peter Mandelson — and why claims about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein are now facing renewed scrutiny. As more details surface, what once appeared minor or distant is starting to look far more complicated.

What exactly do the new Epstein-related documents suggest? Why are past explanations being re-examined? And how do alleged inconsistencies about Mandelson’s relationship with Epstein fuel suspicions that the full story has never been told? Shaun Attwood takes a careful, evidence-led approach, breaking down what has been reported, what is disputed, and where uncomfortable gaps remain.

A key focus of this discussion is why proximity to Epstein continues to matter years after his death. Shaun explores allegations that Mandelson downplayed or mischaracterised the depth of his connection to Epstein, and why reports involving financial links — including claims relating to Epstein providing money to Mandelson’s partner — have intensified public concern. These are not conclusions, but questions — and questions that refuse to go away.

The conversation places Mandelson’s case within the wider Epstein ecosystem: a world where politicians, royalty, financiers, and billionaires moved in overlapping circles shielded by reputation, discretion, and influence. Why did Epstein gain such extraordinary access? Why did so many powerful figures struggle to clearly distance themselves once scrutiny arrived? And why does every new document release deepen mistrust rather than resolve it?

We also revisit the broader fallout from the Epstein scandal, including its impact on the British establishment and the continuing damage to public confidence. Shaun explains why this story isn’t just about individual judgement — it’s about elite systems that prioritise containment over accountability, and image management over transparency.

Crucially, this episode avoids tabloid sensationalism and does not assert criminal guilt. Instead, it asks a more troubling question: what happens when powerful people appear less than honest about their associations — and why does that erode trust so completely?

Shaun Attwood delivers a clear-eyed, sceptical analysis of why the Epstein files continue to destabilise reputations at the highest level — and why Peter Mandelson’s name is once again under the microscope.

What happens when you challenge the climate agenda from the inside? In this episode, WEF whistleblower Desiree Fixler joins Andrew Gold to explain why she believes parts of the UK’s climate-policy culture now function less like open debate and more like an unquestionable belief system.

Fixler was a senior executive at Deutsche Bank’s $1 trillion asset-management arm. She believed in ESG, sustainability, and the promise of “profit with purpose.” That belief began to unravel when she saw how climate commitments, net zero targets, and stakeholder capitalism were implemented behind the scenes—and how dissent was treated as a problem rather than a safeguard.

In this conversation, Desiree explains what the World Economic Forum actually is, how stakeholder capitalism replaced shareholder accountability, and why ESG, DEI, and net zero targets became effectively mandatory across finance and government-aligned institutions. She outlines how these frameworks are enforced through compliance pressure, reputational risk, and narrative control—often without rigorous challenge.

The discussion also turns to the UK political context. Fixler addresses how climate policies promoted under Ed Miliband and Keir Starmer are being advanced at speed, despite ongoing debate over evidence, cost, and impact. She argues that questioning these policies is increasingly framed as unacceptable, even as businesses, energy markets, and households absorb the consequences.

The turning point for Fixler came when she says she refused to approve public disclosures she believed were misleading. According to her account, raising concerns triggered swift consequences: she was locked out of internal systems, publicly criticised, and eventually forced out of Germany. What followed, she says, were investigations by US and German authorities—and a dramatic reversal of her career.

This episode isn’t a denial of environmental concern. It’s a first-hand account of how policy, finance, and politics align, and what happens when transparency gives way to conformity. Fixler carefully distinguishes between environmental goals and the structures used to enforce them—warning that when scrutiny disappears, mistakes multiply.

If you’ve ever wondered how climate policy translates into real-world decisions—or why challenging ESG frameworks can carry serious professional risk—this conversation offers rare insight from someone who was inside the system.

In this explosive episode, I’m joined by Shaun Attwood to examine why Bill Gates’ association with Jeffrey Epstein continues to resurface — and why attempts to close the chapter have repeatedly failed. Years after Epstein’s death, Gates’ past meetings with him, and the surrounding claims and reporting, remain a reputational shadow that refuses to disappear.

This conversation focuses on what has been publicly reported, what has been acknowledged, and what remains contested. Shaun Attwood breaks down why Epstein’s proximity to figures like Gates still generates scrutiny, even when wrongdoing has been denied and no criminal charges have followed. Why do certain stories stick while others fade? And what happens when elite explanations don’t satisfy public curiosity?

We dig into the most controversial elements of Epstein-related reporting, including claims about Epstein’s role as a social broker to powerful men, and why Gates’ judgment in maintaining contact with Epstein has been so widely questioned. Shaun carefully separates evidence from rumour, explaining how reputational damage can persist even in the absence of legal findings — especially when transparency feels incomplete.

The discussion also revisits Epstein’s broader network and why billionaire and political circles continue to attract attention in this case. Names like Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and others repeatedly reappear not because of proven crimes, but because of patterns of access, secrecy, and silence. Shaun explains why Epstein’s power came not from what he did openly, but from what he was able to facilitate behind closed doors.

We also touch on the ripple effects of these associations — from media scrutiny to internal fallout — and why Epstein-related stories tend to expand rather than resolve. When elite figures speak carefully, issue partial explanations, or express regret without clarity, suspicion often grows rather than subsides.

Crucially, this episode avoids sensationalism. It does not make medical claims or assert criminal guilt. Instead, it asks a more unsettling question: why do powerful people keep underestimating the damage caused by proximity to someone like Epstein? And why does the public remain unconvinced long after official statements are made?

Shaun Attwood delivers a blunt, grounded analysis of why the Epstein scandal still ensnares some of the world’s most influential figures — and why reputations built over decades can be destabilised by a few unanswered questions.

In this explosive episode, I’m joined by Shaun Attwood to examine one of the most provocative and controversial claims circulating within the wider Jeffrey Epstein scandal: the allegation that Epstein may have played a role in introducing Melania Trump to Donald Trump through modelling and social networks connected to Epstein’s world.

This conversation is not about making definitive claims. It’s about carefully examining what is being alleged, where those claims originate, and why they have resurfaced now. Shaun Attwood breaks down the reporting, timelines, and unresolved gaps that fuel ongoing speculation — while clearly distinguishing between verifiable facts, disputed accounts, and unanswered questions.

Why does Epstein’s name continue to surface in stories involving powerful political figures long after his death? How did his social reach intersect with modelling agencies, elite parties, and influential networks in the 1990s? And why do these connections remain so difficult to fully clarify? Shaun approaches these questions with scepticism rather than sensationalism, focusing on patterns of access and influence rather than gossip.

We also revisit Epstein’s broader reputation as a social operator — someone who moved easily between wealth, politics, and celebrity — and why his proximity to powerful individuals continues to undermine public trust. Even where claims are denied or lack legal findings, the absence of transparency leaves space for suspicion to grow, especially when official explanations feel incomplete.

Importantly, this episode avoids tabloid framing. It does not assert guilt, wrongdoing, or intent. Instead, it asks why certain stories persist, why Epstein-related narratives keep expanding rather than closing, and what this reveals about how elite systems protect themselves from scrutiny.

This isn’t just about one allegation or one relationship. It’s about power, access, influence, and how uncomfortable questions are managed when they touch the highest levels of society. Shaun Attwood provides a measured, grounded examination of a claim that many find shocking — not to inflame outrage, but to understand why the Epstein scandal continues to cast such a long shadow.

If you want a serious discussion that separates evidence from speculation and asks hard questions without jumping to conclusions, this episode is essential viewing.

Before prison, before international notoriety, before everything collapsed — there was a very different chapter of Pieter Tritton’s life. In this episode, better known to many as Posh Pete, he looks back on a hedonistic period in Cardiff that now feels almost unreal in hindsight.

At the time, Tritton was a university student who had drifted into an intense social scene fuelled by excess, status, and proximity to fame. Cardiff’s nightlife in the late 1990s and early 2000s was a strange collision of music, celebrity, and money, and Tritton found himself embedded in it. He describes wild house parties, backroom gatherings, and an atmosphere where limits barely existed and consequences felt distant.

What makes this conversation compelling isn’t name-dropping for its own sake, but context. Tritton reflects on how environments like this normalise risk, inflate confidence, and quietly reshape a person’s sense of reality. When everyone around you appears successful, untouchable, or connected, it becomes easier to believe the rules don’t apply — or that you’re smarter than the dangers everyone else ignores.

Andrew Gold presses Tritton on the psychology of those years. How does a scene built on indulgence blur moral boundaries? Why do moments that feel glamorous at the time later reveal themselves as warning signs? And how much did that lifestyle contribute to decisions that would later cost him nearly a decade of his life?

Crucially, this episode avoids romanticising the past. Tritton is blunt about how shallow, fragile, and ultimately hollow that world was. What looked like freedom was actually momentum — carrying him toward outcomes he didn’t fully grasp until it was far too late. The parties didn’t cause his downfall, but they helped create the illusion that nothing ever would.

Now speaking from experience rather than nostalgia, Tritton offers a sobering reframe of that era. He explains how quickly social scenes move on, how little protection status actually provides, and how people disappear the moment things go wrong. What remains, he says, is accountability — and memory.

If you’re interested in the unseen pathways that lead from privilege to catastrophe, the social mechanics of excess, or how fast a life can pivot without warning, this episode offers a rare, reflective look at the moment before everything changed.

What really happens when you challenge the World Economic Forum from the inside? In this episode, whistleblower Desiree Fixler joins Andrew Gold to explain why she believes the ideas behind the Great Reset, championed by Klaus Schwab and the WEF, have created a system vulnerable to abuse, opacity, and large-scale misalignment between rhetoric and reality.

Fixler was a senior executive at Deutsche Bank’s $1 trillion asset-management division. She believed in ESG, sustainability, and the promise of “profit with purpose.” That belief began to fracture when she saw how policies associated with the WEF were implemented behind closed doors — how incentives worked, how dissent was handled, and how quickly questioning became unwelcome once global frameworks were in place.

In this conversation, Desiree explains what the World Economic Forum actually is, how stakeholder capitalism replaced traditional shareholder accountability, and why net zero, ESG, and DEI became effectively mandatory across finance and corporate governance. She outlines how alignment with WEF principles can become more important than outcomes, creating conditions where transparency is replaced by compliance.

The turning point came when Fixler says she refused to sign off on public disclosures she believed were misleading. According to her account, raising concerns led to swift consequences: she was locked out of internal systems, publicly criticised, and ultimately forced out of Germany. What followed, she says, were investigations by US and German authorities, bringing wider scrutiny to practices she claims were ignored internally.

This episode is not a denial of environmental responsibility or global cooperation. Instead, it’s a first-hand account of how power, policy, and finance intersect — and what can happen when ambitious global agendas are insulated from challenge. Fixler carefully distinguishes between stated goals and the structures used to enforce them, arguing that without scrutiny, even well-intentioned frameworks can produce damaging results.

If you’ve ever wondered what the Great Reset means in practice — beyond slogans and headlines — this conversation offers rare insight from someone who supported the system before questioning it. Desiree doesn’t speculate. She explains what she says she witnessed, why she spoke up, and what it cost her to do so.

A new drop of Epstein-related files has reignited global scrutiny — and one image now circulating has become a focal point for renewed public concern. In this episode, I’m joined by Shaun Attwood to examine why this photograph, revealed as part of the latest Epstein files, has struck such a nerve and what it tells us about the wider scandal surrounding Prince Andrew.

Why has this image resurfaced now? What do the newly released documents actually add to what we already know — and what don’t they prove? Shaun Attwood approaches the issue carefully and methodically, separating confirmed reporting from speculation, and asking why certain images become symbolic even when the full context remains contested.

We dig into the long-running scrutiny of Prince Andrew’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, and why each new document release reopens questions that many assumed were settled. This includes the continuing fallout from Virginia Giuffre’s accusations, the reputational damage to the royal family, and why official statements and legal outcomes have failed to close the conversation in the public mind.

The discussion also widens to Epstein’s elite social world and the uncomfortable questions it raises about access and protection. We examine why associations with Epstein — including figures from political and billionaire circles — continue to attract attention even when involvement has been denied or disputed. What does proximity mean in environments where power, wealth, and reputation overlap? And why do some connections fade quietly while others become permanent stains?

We also address the royal dimension, including Sarah Ferguson (Fergie), and how Epstein’s access to royal circles transformed this from a criminal case into one of the most damaging reputational crises in modern royal history. How did Epstein operate socially? Why were warning signs missed or minimised? And what does this reveal about how elite networks protect themselves?

This episode avoids tabloid hysteria and online pile-ons. Instead, Shaun Attwood offers a grounded, sceptical examination of why the Epstein story keeps evolving — and why a single image, released years later, can still deepen mistrust and reopen unresolved questions about power, access, and accountability.

Why does one of the most famous comedians in the world seem completely unaffected by backlash, criticism, or outrage?

In this episode, comedian Simon Brodkin explains what he believes sets Ricky Gervais apart from most performers working today, why Gervais appears so resistant to public pressure, and what that reveals about the current state of comedy.

Simon describes how most comedians now instinctively anticipate reaction before they even write, and how that anticipation shapes what gets said, what gets softened, and what never leaves the notebook. Against that backdrop, he explains why Gervais’s approach feels so different — and why that difference attracts both admiration and frustration.

Rather than talking about individual jokes, this conversation focuses on mindset: the willingness to tolerate disapproval, the acceptance of being misunderstood, and the ability to separate personal worth from public reaction. Simon reflects on why that emotional separation is rare, how difficult it is to maintain, and why it becomes more valuable the more visible someone becomes.

He also explains how audience expectations have shifted, how performers internalise those expectations, and how some people become immune to them while others are shaped by them. Through that lens, Simon explores why Gervais continues to work in a way that feels unchanged while much of the industry around him has quietly adapted.

If you’ve ever wondered why some comedians seem unbothered while others feel constantly on edge, or why certain figures remain creatively free while others appear constrained, this episode offers a clear and personal explanation.

This is not about defending or attacking anyone — it’s about understanding the psychology behind creative independence, and why so few people are able to sustain it once fame, attention, and risk enter the picture.

In this episode, veteran broadcaster Colin Brazier joins Andrew Gold to make a case many in modern media are reluctant to hear: that journalism needs figures like Andrew Neil — and that so-called “tabloid instincts” are often closer to the public interest than elite newsroom consensus.

Drawing on more than 25 years in television news, Colin reflects on how journalism has changed from robust, questioning reporting to something far more cautious and self-protective. From standing behind police tape at major terror incidents across Europe to returning to editorial meetings in London, he describes a profession that slowly lost its appetite for confrontation — especially with power, institutions, and fashionable ideas.

Colin explains why Andrew Neil’s approach matters. Not because it is provocative for its own sake, but because it prioritises clarity, scepticism, and accessibility. He argues that tabloid journalism, at its best, asks the questions ordinary people are already thinking — without euphemism, jargon, or moral pre-editing. In contrast, much of today’s mainstream media, he suggests, now speaks about the public rather than to them.

The conversation touches on a crucial turning point around the 2015 migration crisis, when newsroom framing and language began to shift decisively. Colin explains how ideological pressure can shape everything from guest selection to what counts as a legitimate question. Over time, scepticism — once journalism’s defining trait — was replaced by reassurance and consensus.

Rather than dismissing tabloid journalism as crude or irresponsible, Colin reframes it as a necessary counterweight to institutional groupthink. He explains why figures like Andrew Neil succeed not because they flatter audiences, but because they respect them enough to be direct — even when that makes colleagues uncomfortable.

This isn’t nostalgia or media infighting. It’s a serious discussion about incentives, trust, and why large sections of the public have stopped believing what they’re told. Colin argues that journalism regains credibility not by policing tone, but by restoring its willingness to challenge assumptions — wherever they come from.

If you’ve ever wondered why blunt interviewers resonate while polished coverage falls flat, this conversation offers rare, experience-driven insight into what journalism has lost — and what it needs to recover.
