That's the reaction a lot of people are having when they first try Cupid Mayon. Yeah, it's the one with the red cap and the little baby on the bottle. You've probably seen it at the grocery store. And this mayo is different. Most mayonnaise uses whole eggs. Cupid only uses egg yolks, which gives it this rich umami flavor.

1:00It's smoother, deeper, almost buttery. Once people try it, they start putting it on everything. Egg sandwiches, fries, burgers, chefs use it, restaurants use it, people who really care about flavor use it, put it on just about anything. Then you'll understand. Cupid, the original Japanese mayonnaise. Dave Roberts here. There you are, surrounded by fans, sharing wings, sharing drinks, high-fiving random strangers. Everybody remembers the game. Nobody remembers the guy coughing behind you until a few days later. At 2 a.m., you wake up with a fever and your throats on fire. Now what? Urgent care, clothes, ER, slam, telehealth, maybe.

Sinus and ear infection, UTI, stomach bug, travelers diarrhea, and more. On hand before you need them.

In this episode, we're picking up where he left off with a just daily transcript from his trip to Congress. Question, in the email you write, quote, I realized the danger in sending this email, but it was great to be able today to give you in New York City a long, heartfelt hug. To my friend, thanks Jess. When you wrote, quote, I realized the danger in sending this email, what did you mean by that? Answer again, maintaining a relationship with a convicted felon was a dangerous thing to do. And in hindsight, I regret it. Question, so you weren't referring to all him violating his house arrest by being in New York? Answer no, I think he was in New York under house arrest.

3:02Question, were you ever aware of him violating the terms of his house arrest? Answer, I was not. Question, okay, thank you. I have a few more questions for you about visits to Mr. Epstein's properties and a few clarifications. You said earlier that you never went to Mr. Epstein's Palm Beach home. Is that correct? Answer, correct. Question, you said earlier that you went to Mr. Epstein's ranch in New Mexico once, correct? Answer, correct. Question, did you spend the night? Answer no. Question, so you were in Albuquerque for, I think you said a business meeting, correct? Answer yes. Question, and then you drive to the ranch? Answer, I had a driver drive me to the ranch. Question, and I think you said it was about an hour. Answer, I think so. Question, so you had someone drive you to the ranch. That's about an hour. And then you said you went horseback riding to, took a shower, and then you went to the hot tub. And then you had someone drive you back somewhere else that evening, answer the same driver who drove me to the airport and I flew home. Question, how many hours would you say

4:03you spent that Zorro ranch? Answer, an hour, maybe an hour, an hour and a half. Question, so it was an hour of travel time each way and an hour to an hour and a half at the ranch, answer right. Question, that's a lot of travel time for very little time spent at the ranch. Answer for a whole day, no, an hour again. It was described to me as the largest ranch in New Mexico. I had the time. Didn't seem that special. Question, I would like to introduce as minority exhibit AE in email between Leslie Groff and Mr. Epstein from October 30th, 2009. Bates number is EFTA02434380. Question, in the email, Ms. Groff writes, quote, Jeffrey just wanted you to know that Jess is all set and organized to stay at the ranch tomorrow night. Is your testimony that you did not spend the night at the ranch? Answer, yes. Question, why do you think Ms. Groff was under the impression that you were going to spend the night? Answer, I don't know.

5:03Question, I would like to introduce as minority exhibit AF, an email chain between you and Mr. Epstein from October 18th and 19th, 2009. The Bates number is EFTA01300295. Question, in the first email, Mr. Epstein writes, quote, London, when. And you respond, quote, could I swing by your house in London on the afternoon of the 27th? Answer, yes. Question, did Mr. Epstein have a house in London? Answer, yes. Question, where was it? Answer, I don't remember. Question, you have no recollection. You spend a lot of time in London, correct? Answer, yes. Question, where you have no recollection, where his house in London was. Answer, I never went to his house, but I think it may have been on Mayfair, but I don't really know. Question, do you remember if it was a standalone house or a townhouse or an apartment? Answer, no. This says it's a house, but I don't know. Question, are you aware that Mr. Epstein had at least four flats in Kensington and Chelsea that he used to house women that he trafficked? Answer, no.

6:04Question, could you have been a woman referring to those flats here? Answer, I was referring to his house in London. Question, why would you have wanted to swing by? Answer, because again, I thought it was one of the larger houses in London, and it would be interesting to see. Question, in all the years that you were friends with Mr. Epstein and all the time you spent in London, you never went to his house? Answer, no, because when I was, he gets cut off, we're going to go off record. They come back on. Mr. Ashworth, the majority does not have any further questions at this time. I understand the minority has a handful more questions that they're going to go through, and then we'll be finishing up. Thank you, we'll go off the record. Oh, of course, the GOP has nothing to ask daily, right? A bunch of clowns. Question, I'd like to ask you some questions about Mr. Epstein's island, Little St. James. You said today that you went twice, once in 2005, and once in 2015, correct? Answer, and that I translated through it a third time.

7:07Question and what year was that? Answer, I don't recall. Question, okay, I'd like to introduce as minority exhibit AG for Flight Manifest from February 2005. These manifest indicate that you, your wife, your two daughters flew from JFK to the Virgin Islands on Mr. Epstein's private plane on February 18, 2005. You were joined by Mr. Epstein, Glenn Maxwell, and three young women who work for Mr. Epstein among other things. These manifest also indicate that you, your wife, and your two daughters flew from the Virgin Islands to Palm Beach on Mr. Epstein's private plane on February 21, 2005. And at the same time, three young women who work for Mr. Epstein accompanied you. Finally, there's a manifest showing you, your wife, and your two daughters flying from Palm Beach to Titoboro, New Jersey on Mr. Epstein's private plane on February 22, 2005. We'll go off the record briefly to give you time to review the manifest.

8:08Question, if you, your wife and your daughter flew to the Virgin Islands on February 18th, and then did not fly back until February 21st, did you stand Mr. Epstein's island between the 18th and the 21st? Answer, I apologize. I don't see the name of my family, nor myself, on the passenger manifest. Question, sure, the manifest are confusing. If you look at the first page, you'll see the date of the flight is February 18th, and the trip number is 322. Answer, right? Question, you can see Mr. Epstein is the first passenger. He's listed as number one. If you go down to number 12, it says Jeff. It then says female guest. Female female, answer, yep. Question, if you flip the next page about halfway down the page, not quite, it says February 18th, 2005, flight 322. James Staley, Ms. Staley, redacted and redacted. Answer, okay. Question, so what we believe, because these are the same flights on the same date,

9:09is that Jeff is a typo, and that should say Jeff. Answer, right? Question, and that the three female guests are your family members. Answer, okay. Question, so did you and your family stand Mr. Epstein's island between February 18th and February 21st? Answer, as I said, my wife and I visited the family and visited Epstein, and this sort of confirms that. Question, so you stayed on his island. Answer on his island, yes. Question from the night of the 18th through the 21st. Staley, along with the doobens, yes. Question, that's different from what you had testified to previously, correct? Answer, no, why? How so? Question, I believe you told the financial conduct authority that you spent a single night on Epstein's island with your wife. Answer, I thought it was a single night, but this implies that it was two nights or three nights. Question, you did testify before the financial conduct authority that you recall, this is according to their decision, that you recall visiting Mr. Epstein's island

10:11with your wife and spending the night there in 2005 or 2006. So it appears it was your whole family, and it was more than one night, correct? Answer, it appears that way, yes.

11:22CUPY only uses egg yolks, which gives it this rich umami flavor. It's smoother, deeper, and almost buttery. Once people try it, they start putting it on everything. Egg sandwiches, fries, burgers, some fans even swear by dipping pizza crust in it. And once you notice it, you start seeing it everywhere. Chefs use it, restaurants use it. People who really care about flavor use it. Never try it, grab the bottle with the red cap next time you're at the store. Put it on just about anything. Then you'll understand. CUPY, the original Japanese mayonnaise. CUPY, the original Japanese mayonnaise.

12:49CUPY, the original Japanese mayonnaise. Answer no. Question. Other than the people listed on the manifest in the first page of the exhibit, was anyone else on the island? Answer. I don't even know whether all these people were on the island. I just remember my wife, my family, and the doovins were on the island. Question. And do you remember anyone else on the island? Who wasn't necessarily on the flight to the island? Answer no except for the people that worked there. Question the manifest show that you fly from virgin islands to Palm Beach on February 21st.

13:49And then from Palm Beach to Titorboro on February 22nd. So it appears that you also spent the night in Palm Beach. Is that correct? Answer. That's what this appears to show. I don't recall that. But that's what this appears to show. Question. Do you remember where you stayed when you spent the night in Palm Beach? Answer no. Question. Would you have stayed at Mr. Epstein's home in Palm Beach? Answer no. Question. You're confident that you would not have stayed at his home? Answer. Answer very confident. Question. Why is that? Answer if I was traveling with my whole family. I wouldn't stay at someone's house like that. Question. I'd like to introduce his minority exhibit AH to emails from you to Mr. Epstein on January 15th, 2010. The Bates numbers are EFTA 01300416 and EFTA 01821546. In the first email you say arrived at your harbor, someday we have to do this together. In the second email you say quote, that was cool. And Mr. Epstein responds, yep, great seeing you.

14:51And again, both of these are from the same day. Was this another trip to Mr. Epstein's island? Answer no. I believe this was me arriving on my boat. He owned a marina in St. Thomas. And I believe I was talking about me sailing. I believe when he said his harbor, I believe it was to the marina. Question in the second email, which again is from January 15th, you say that was cool. Answer. Answer no. Do you know what you're referring to? Answer no. Question if you were just arriving at Mr. Epstein's marina. Would you have seen him? Answer possibly. He may have come over and looked at my boat. Question so when he said, yep, great seeing you. Is it possible that he was at the marina? Answer yes, it's possible. Question is also possible. This was an instance in which you visited little St. James. Answer, I don't think so because it says, arrived at your harbor. And again, I think the harbor refers to the harbor in St. Thomas, where he owns a marina, but I'm not sure. All right folks, we're on a wrap up right here. And in the next episode, we're going to finish up with the Jess Staley transcripts from his trip to Congress.
