To understand the monster, you must first meet his makers.

Part 1 of The Epstein Files is a journey into the swamp that created him. We uncover the interconnected worlds of Adnan Khashoggi, the arms dealer who brokered secret wars; Robert Maxwell, the spy who ran a media empire; and Roy Cohn, the political fixer who taught a generation how to wield power.

This is the story of a failing, privatized deep state and the new, more ruthless machine that was built from its ashes. This is the story of Jeffrey Epstein's apprenticeship, and, as it happens, Donald Trump's.

Last episode we explored the eschatological underpinnings of Iran, Israel and the USA driving them toward conflict in the Middle East, but it left us with a burning question.. What's the deal with the Temple?

For millennia, this sacred space has been a source of immense spiritual power and wealth. Join us as we lay out it's entire history, from its genesis with King Solomon, to its capture by the warrior-banker monks of the Knights Templar, all the way through the empires that have risen and fallen fighting to possess it.

This is the story of the world's most contested piece of real estate.

Ok, buckle up, leave your preconceived notions at the door and let's have a proper look at the underlying elephant in the room in the conflict between Israel, Iran and America. This is a look at the mainstream explanations of the conflict from each side, combined with the Religious Zionism, Christian Zionism and Shia Islam, side by side, what they believe and what steps they are each following in an attempt to bring about the end times.

It's gonna end fine, I swear.

We looked at the rise and fall of the East India Company, but what came next? This episode, we tunnel into the diamond-encrusted heart of imperial ambition. The life, times, and frankly terrifying wills of Cecil Rhodes, a man who didn't just want to annexe countries, but the future itself. Discover how his dream of a secret society to ensure Anglo-Saxon global dominance was taken up by the formidable Alfred Milner and his "Kindergarten," evolving into the influential Round Table groups. We'll trace the money trail back to the ancient Square Mile – the City of London – and yes, we'll be mentioning the Rothschilds. It's the hidden architecture of early 20th-century power, laid bare. Grab your shovel.

Looking at Theosophy, The I Am Activity, The Galactic Federation, American Psyops and how it all relates to the Q operation as we continue where we left off last time.

We have a refresh on the foundations of the pro-Trump Qanon conspiracy theory.

Having a look at the recent ASIO threat assessment before moving on to Trump, DOGE and the playbook for autocratic capture that Orban is exporting to the world. Plus a little rant on AI at the end.

What do you know about the creation of the Liberal Party? Something, something Menzies. Something about the middle class maybe, and just good times until somewhere along the way Labor got in and ruined everything. Then the Liberals must have lost their way and here we are, right?

Allow us to clear that up for you.

Featuring special guest Joel Hill from The Conditional Release Program.
