Mega Edition: Prince Andrew And The Debacle With The BBC (9/8/26)

About this episode

Prince Andrew was warned before he ever sat down with BBC Newsnight that the interview could do far more damage than good. His public-relations adviser Jason Stein reportedly urged him not to participate, favoring a slower strategy designed to rehabilitate Andrew’s image without subjecting him to a lengthy, unscripted interrogation about Jeffrey Epstein and Virginia Giuffre. Stein’s advice was ignored, and he left Andrew’s team shortly before the interview. The risks were compounded by the format: the BBC had agreed there would be no advance vetting of Emily Maitlis’s questions, meaning Andrew would have to defend his relationship with Epstein and respond to the allegations against him in real time. Despite those warnings, Andrew apparently believed that directly addressing the controversy would allow him to put the scandal behind him. Instead, his explanations about Pizza Express, his inability to sweat and the photograph showing him with Giuffre turned the interview into one of the most damaging public-relations disasters in modern royal history.

There were also warnings surrounding the images being captured during the interview, although those came primarily from the Newsnight side rather than Andrew’s advisers. Photographer Mark Harrison has said the production team instructed him to keep shooting because they feared Andrew might become angry with the questioning and abruptly walk out, potentially making any photographs of that moment historically important. Instead, Andrew remained remarkably upbeat. Harrison photographed him before and after the interview and later recalled that Andrew appeared pleased with how the session had gone, reportedly remarking afterward that he thought it had gone well. Those photographs became part of the story themselves, particularly images showing a smiling Andrew alongside a visibly more serious Maitlis. The contrast captured something that would become central to the fallout: while journalists and viewers quickly recognized the interview as catastrophic, Andrew initially appeared unaware of just how damaging his own words and the accompanying images were about to become.

Prince Andrew and his disastrous BBC interview will go down in history as possibly one of the worst performances of all time. If they gave razzies for performances and interviews this would be at the very top of the list. Well during that interview there was a picture that was allegedly snapped and according to sources at BBC and elsewhere the picture is pretty embarrassing

for Prince Andrew. So we were talking about what could this picture possibly be and now there's some reports coming out of what that picture is and today we have an episode dealing with that. Our article is from the mirror headline. Prince Andrew laughed his head off an unseen picture from Car Crash BBC interview. This article was authored by Matthew Dresch. A jaw-dropping photograph of Prince Andrew reportedly shows him in hysterics during his disastrous interview with BBC News Night Reporter Emily Maetless about his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and it tells you everything you need to know about the man. Him laughing in a situation like this while under the microscope encapsulates everything that is wrong with this idiot. He truly thought that he was gonna get up there and gaslight all of us. Get up there and turn on the old charm. Bro you

don't have any charm. You're not gonna charm anybody and the only reason anybody ever wants to associate with you is because you're the Prince. If you are just a regular old Joe Schmo working down at the local grocery store you think anybody would want to hang out with you. Prince Andrew you're not a man of personality. You're not a man of intelligence and you're certainly not a man of means. But what you are is a callous pig and the fact that you get caught in a picture laughing hysterically while you're giving such a serious interview with such serious content it just goes to show you that you are exactly what we thought you were. Prince Andrew reportedly laughed his head off during his car crash BBC interview about Jeffrey Epstein. A BBC picture that apparently shows the Royal in hysterics has been described as jaw dropping so when we were first

talking about the picture I was wondering what it possibly could be. I mean what could you what could you snap and get this guy caught up in while he's at the palace getting ready to give an interview right I thought it was a pretty vague statement. Oh we have a picture okay but if there's a picture of him laughing during all of this again the optics are terrible and when you're somebody in a public position like Prince Andrew you better damn well but make sure that the optics match up because if not you're gonna get hammered for it especially when you're already under the microscope the way the joe exotic of the Windsor family is. The photograph was taken during the Duke of York's disastrous newsnight interview with Emily Maillys in 2019. Prince Andrew desperately tried to defend his relationship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein during the interview and denied claims he slept with Jeffrey Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts and that's

exactly what it was it was a denial he thought he was gonna get up there and he thought he was gonna be given a platform to deny what he had done and nobody was buying it nobody was down with it and everybody was disgusted by it. If he had anyone supporting him before that interview those numbers dwindled significantly in the aftermath. The Royal Reached or reported 12 million pound out of court settlement with Miss Roberts earlier this year after she filed the sex abuse lawsuit against him in New York. The settlement was not an admission of guilt on Andrew's part and he has always denied wrongdoing look it doesn't have to be an admission on his part okay his behavior in my opinion anyway is an admission of his role in all of this an innocent man doesn't act this way in fact an innocent man is absolutely fired up and pissed off and ready to defend his name if his name is being dragged through the mud you don't

kick the can down the road for years and years and years and years people have been saying you've done you've done this for how long how many people as Prince Andrew sued for libel or defamation oh none oh that's right because the dude couldn't prove it in court even Brettler and Marty Singer told all boy it was time to bail so what does that tell you might not be an admission of guilt but it's damn sure in the neighborhood earlier this month BBC photographer Mark Harrison said the picture of Prince Andrew laughing during his newsnight interview would embarrass the royals he told the Daily Mail the photo has been seen by only a few people but it would be a big deal for the royal family there's a lot more from that day that is not yet in the public domain and that's a lead we all know what what a lead is and they're trying to sell their content over at BBC so of course they're gonna pump it up you know put some air in those tires and I'm all for it if you have good content and you want to you want to have a lead here and open it up for further discussion great let's get

let's get to it let's see the picture though I could see why the royal family wouldn't want to see it I mean let's be real Prince Andrew laughing in the middle of this interview talking about sexual assault rape Jeffrey Epstein human trafficking Galein Maxwell underage kids that's the time to laugh now it's the time to have a big belly full of a laugh probably not a good idea a source told the son people of filo was reckless for him to laugh during such a sensitive interview yeah no shit I mean you don't have to know the caram and you don't have to have been raised in Buckingham Palace to know how bad that looks but he probably didn't realize the seriousness or consequences of laughing or how would look on camera it's always he didn't realize he didn't this he didn't that I mean is the guy like mentally challenged or what because it sure seems to me like he's pretty slow maybe he should have somebody to

take care of him maybe he should just be like put into the tower the tower of London and kept under observation so he doesn't blunder around anymore you have to bear in mind that after the interview he thought it had gone very well only to be subsequently hit by a wave of negative reaction I have no idea how you could think that this went well and I don't know how your people around you didn't say to you bro this was a disaster we need to get ready to do some clean up work because you're gonna look real bad after all of this share former newsnight producer Sam McAllister could publish the unseen picture of Andrew in her upcoming book about the interview the BBC interrogation is reportedly set to become a movie potentially starring Hugh Grant the interview had disastrous consequences for Andrew who shortly afterwards stepped down as a senior royal amid the huge public backlash I've heard that Hugh Grant isn't going

to be involved in this project after all so I'm interested to see who they get to play Prince Andrew his attempts to defend himself against Miss Roberts claims in the interview were roundly mocked because he didn't attempt to defend himself he attempted to smooth his role over and act like it was no big deal and act like him hanging out with Epstein had nothing to do with any of these girls getting abused he refuses to see the issue here and the issue you dumb fuck is you he claimed he went to pizza express and woking on the day of one of her claims and also insisted he could not sweat the royal also came under fire for describing his convicted pedophile pal Epstein's behavior as unbecoming imagine explaining Epstein and his behavior as anything besides sick twisted disgusting and just saying it was unbecoming really you know what's unbecoming you you're unbecoming Prince Andrew when Miss Mailless shot back

saying unbecoming he was a sex a sex offender Andrew replied yeah I'm sorry I'm being polite I mean in the sense that he was a sex offender like here you go here's a shovel dig the hole a little bit deeper for yourself Andrew also tried to defend the decision to stay at Epstein's house after the pedophile was convicted of a child prostitution charge all right first of all you can't be a child and be a prostitute one of these papers going to add that to what they're talking about as if it's just whole home go about your business oh there's child prostitutes that's okay let's go to the bow day and get a ham egg and cheesers the fuck that should launch people into orbit seeing those words child prostitute what is this the year 765 he said it was a convenient place to stay at the end of the day with a benefit of all the hindsight that one can have it was definitely the wrong thing to do imagine staying the night at Jeffrey Epstein's after you know he's a convicted pedophile and then having the

audacity to try and defend that decision oh well you know I look back on it now it was the wrong thing to do yeah you think but at the time I felt it was the honorable and right thing to do and I admit fully that my judgment was probably colored by my tendency to be too honorable but that's just the way it is imagine saying this oh you're you're you're honor dictated that you had to stay the night over at the didler on the roof's house huh what sort of twisted broken ass honor system do you live by Epstein took his own life allegedly while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges in 2019 a spokesman for the Duke of York declined to comment oh I'm sure he did I am sure he did so we were wondering what that photograph might have in store for us and it looks like it's a picture of dumbass laughing like he has no cares in the world when in fact he's under the microscope for being involved in one of the largest

human trafficking rings we've seen and this moron thinks it's the time to laugh that my friends tells you everything you need to know about the joe exotic of the Windsor family if you'd like to contact me you can do that at Bobby Kapoo Chi at proton male dot com that's be oh BBY CAP you CCI at proton male dot com you can also find me on Twitter at be oh BBY underscore CAP you CCI the link that I discussed can be found in the description box all right what's up everyone and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles so there's a news night photographer who claims that he has a picture of Prince Andrew that would rock the monarchy if it was ever made public now what the hell kind of picture could he possibly have we've already seen the picture with Prince Andrew having his arm around Virginia Roberts with Maxwell in the background so what

else could this guy possibly have that would make the monarchy get rocked well let's jump into this article from the Daily Mail and let's find out headline newsnight photographer claims to have picture of Prince Andrew that would rock the monarchy if it was ever made public this article was authored by Emily Prescott and Katie Hind a photographer working for the BBC during Prince Andrew's car crash newsnight interview claims who have taken a shocking picture of the royal that would shake the monarchy if it ever became public now what sort of picture could you possibly get during this interview did Prince Andrew show up in his chownies or something dude showed up in a pair of bikini bottoms I what kind of picture could you possibly get that would make rock the monarchy mark Harrison declined to reveal what he captured but said it would embarrass Prince Andrew and the royal family if it were released it is understood

that the Duke insisted the picture never become public but Mr. Harrison hinted that it may feature in a forthcoming film about how the BBC secured the interview a dramatization producers may feel free to recreate their own version of the jaw dropping image so a lot a lot to one pack there we know about the movie coming up called scoop about the Prince Andrew interview and Hugh Grant that was allegedly tied to it but he came out and said that no that he has nothing to do with it so we'll have to see who they cast for it but I'm guessing it's gonna be a pretty explosive movie right pretty interesting you can count me and look put the pre-sell tickets on sale I'll buy some now point of the story is I'm definitely going to see it a source close to the newsnight interview who has seen the original photograph said that if if it became public it will be shocking especially if it's decontextualized what

could it possibly be now I really don't have any idea so those of you listening out there shoot me some emails and tell me what you think this picture might be that'll be so embarrassing I mean they took the picture at the palace he was there with Beatrice and Amanda thirst so I don't know exactly what he could have been doing that could have been captured in photo photographic form but according to the photographer here he has something our jaws dropped to the floor when we saw it it would cause Andrew much embarrassment and imagine how high the bar has to be to cause him embarrassment after everything that has happened all right what now I really need to know what this picture contains we saw the picture of him with Virginia and it's more shocking than that as just stated the bars pretty high for us to be shocked when it comes to the

Joe Exotic of the Windsor family the Duke effectively became a pariah following his catastrophic interview with Emily Maetless about his relationship with pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein and claims which he always has denied that he had sex on three occasions with sex trafficking survivor Virginia Roberts you mean Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts right so this guy Prince Andrew certainly a pariah there's no doubt about that I don't think there's any sort of discussion that could dispute that but if this picture is this explosive don't you think that the BBC should just put it out and not wait and tease people for the big release in the movie Mr. Harris in an award-winning portrait photographer set of his shot it has been seen by only a few people but it would be a big deal for the royal family

there is a lot more from that day that is not yet in the public domain all right we could look at this two different ways right we could look at this as them having the goods and get excited about getting to see those goods eventually or we could say to ourselves are you just trying to promote for your new movie and if you are that's cool I'm totally fine with it but you know don't be disingenuous oh there's so much more that the public hasn't seen well why not why hasn't the public seen it the source added it's the kind of thing which would make the public drop their cornflakes it is definitely not what Andrew would want one out there and apparently he insisted that it remained secret it was not one of the shots the BBC released so there's a lot here this is Dave Roberts if you're heading into summer without a medical emergency kit you're taking a risk most people don't think about until it's too late summer coldslinger and can turn into sinus infections that last for weeks getting sick right before vacation can derail everything and we're traveling

finding a doctor and pharmacy is stressful that's why I ordered medical emergency kit it's like having an emergency care and a pharmacy right at home it includes essential prescriptions like a moxasillin and generic Z-pack to treat a wide range of common and serious illnesses so if you wake up sick at home or on the road you already have what you need no waiting for your doctor no hours at urgent care no pharmacy lines no copays just match your symptoms to the right prescription in your guidebook or call their telemedicine doctor standing by start on your med sooner and feel better faster every home needs at least one medical emergency kit 40 years online in minutes and it's shipped to your door and say forty five dollars with promo code blue at urgent care kit dot com slash blue that's promo code blue at urgent care kit dot com slash blue it's fall in jeep country and during the driving to fall sales events get a great deal on four by fours that refuse to be contained like Jeep Wrangler confidence built into every drive with the most awarded SUV ever Jeep Grand Cherokee and freedom that can't be denied with the open air freedom and jeep

daily mail and the sun and you could call them tabloids they are but guess what they were right about Prince Andrew they were right about Jeffrey Epstein they were right about Bill Clinton they were right about the land Maxwell so you got to give them their credit and they've been all over this story since jump street but BBC well we all know how BBC has protected people like Jimmy Savile in the past so what would make us think that'll be any different this time around I feel the same way about the BBC as I do about the other legacy media organizations there is of course a chance that it will will at some point come out for all to see perhaps if the price is right of course the movie about the interview is happening so that is a possibility oh the price is right again it's always about the money right if the price is right the price is right the price is right well how much how much are you charging to get this picture and let's crowdfund it I got the first couple hundred bucks towards it let's do this I

mean what does that even mean if the price is right so you're telling me you're gonna try and make more money off of the suffering of the survivors how about just release all the information you have if you have information if you have a picture it's just like that mark doogan guy mark John doogan or whatever the hell is name is the guy that said he had a bunch of videotape and this that the other thing and certain people bought into it right what did I tell you from jump street dude has nothing he has Guangil not a nothing and once again proved to be right wasn't it there's so many people my point here is there are so many people involved with this case with this story that are just so palbent on turning it into a financial windfall for themselves that they don't really care about the survivors now it's okay to make some money right you're you're allowed to make some money I have no problem with that but when the whole entire thing is about money and secure in that bag and not about getting just

as for the survivors that's when I have something to say about you and it's certainly looks like the BBC is trying to you know make a few bucks here when the reality is as a news organization you should just be releasing this stuff to the public filming starts on scoop in November based on a new non-fiction book by former newsnight producer Sam McAllister about how the BBC secured some of its landmark interviews including the bombshell encounter with Andrew at Buckingham Palace on November 14th 2019 and look I'm all for the movie right any more information we can get that we can pick through and put the reconstructed bones back together I am all for it that's why you never hear me get too fired up about these documentaries or shows like the one that was just on stars about Galen Maxwell not great right but again if it opens the door for some people to see what's going on and get fired up about

what's going on or what has one on then I'm all for it and when it comes to making money like I said look that too everybody got to eat right nobody should be doing shit for free but the BBC trying to profit on the back end three four times look you're a news organization let's see that picture in February Andrew settled the sexual assault case miss Roberts filed in the US under her married name for an undisclosed sum under the deal the Prince made no admission of guilt oh well that might be the case but let me see a show of hands out there of people who think he's guilty oh that's right I can't see any hands that are down oh so we all think he's guilty okay that's cool reality though he didn't have to take any guilt he didn't have you know his record wasn't showing that he's guilty but in the eyes of the public and the eyes of society as a whole there's nobody more guilty than this scumbag and again remember it's not just the enabling while that's gross and scummy as well Andrew is directly

related to the actual abuse and that's a whole different level for me once you're involved in the actual abuse or accused of that you're a whole different kind of scumbag and if you got a picture BBC that's gonna embarrass this scumbag further let's see it the Princess spokeswoman declined to comment on the photograph last night and the BBC did not respond to a request to do so well folks there it is the story about the photograph that they allegedly have that can embarrass Prince Andrew even further what that photograph is I have no idea but if you have an idea why don't you shoot me an email send me a message on Twitter so I can get clued in to what you know all right folks that's going to do it for this episode if you'd like to contact me you can do that at Bobby Kapuchi at proton mail dot com that's B O BBY C AP you C C I at proton mail dot com you can also find me on Twitter at B O BBY underscore C AP you C C I the

link that I discussed can be found in the description box what's up everyone and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles recently we heard from the producer who was responsible for setting up the Prince Andrew interview with BBC and her name is Sam McAllister and she had some pretty interesting insight to offer well in a new article from the Irish Mirror we're getting some more details from her about what exactly what went down and how Prince Andrew had this idea that he did this great job after this interview whereas the rest of the world who witnessed it who watched it who listened to it they came to a different conclusion for the most part and this interview was the beginning of the end for Prince Andrew folks no doubt in my mind that this was the beginning of the end how many times have people said open your mouth and insert your foot

because that certainly is what Prince Andrew did and he's going to pay for it for the rest of his life and I look at it as karma almost right why are you giving an interview to the BBC before you even speak to the FBI what are you really trying to accomplish you're not trying to help the people who are abused obviously you're trying to save a little bit of face and frankly these people have been allowed to save face for a way too long in fact these people have been so protected folks let's remember that ABC and Amy Robock quashed an interview with Virginia Roberts that had all the goods on these people in 2015 so all of you folks out there who didn't know much about this story and might have heard just little tidbits and decided hey there's not enough out there I have to go and find my own information well you can thank the legacy media for failing at their job to inform you correctly because they've had all this information

even longer than I have but they sat on it they refused to give it to you all because they didn't want to lose access to people like the joe exotic of the wings or family and could there be anything more absurd who the hell cares if you lose access to these sick disgusting people the idea as a journalist is the whole people of power accountable and to educate the rest of the citizens that's why it's called the fourth estate and that's why the media is given such great privileges but they failed big time here folks 100% without a doubt failed not only failed you but more importantly it failed the girls who were abused because if this story could have gotten out earlier how many girls would have avoided this fate and I'm never going to let the legacy media live it down today we have

an article like I said from the Irish mirror and headline print sandry was a bomb waiting to go off as fresh details emerge from his disastrous interview this article was authored by Teresa Gotein Martinez and Michelle Cullen Sam McAllister who was responsible for setting up the Duke of York's explosive interview in November of 2019 has written a memoir scoops in which she detailed the bizarre event so if you were her why wouldn't you parlay this into something write a book write a story do the circuit you know make a few bucks from it I say good for Sam McAllister she was the one who set this all up she was the one who put it in the motion so she should definitely be the one to get the nod in the credit you see a lot of the lot of these times the journalist gets the credit right but behind the scenes it's the producer the field producers who are setting all of

this up finding people to interview figuring out topics and then these high paid newsreaders that you see on TV Rachel Maddow Sean Hannity the rest of these boobs they just get up there and they parrot whatever their producers find out or figure out and they get all of the all of the alcholades they get all of the pets on the back and most importantly they get all of the money when in reality it's these producers that are doing all the hard work so people like Sam McAllister when they're able to double down and make a few dollars on the stuff that they did by flipping a book or something like that I say go for it it's hard enough trying to carve out a chunk when you're somebody who's involved in the media or creating content so if there's a money making opportunity for you and its base solely on your work especially you should definitely jump at that appearing on this morning to discuss the unforgettable appearance of Andrew on

the flagship program which Sam speak about his friendship with convicted pedophile and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein Mr. Miss McAllister was asked by ITV presenter Holly Willoughby whether she thought the Duke 62 regretted agreeing to the interview look I certainly didn't work on getting the interview for with Prince Andrew here but I'm pretty sure it's right up there in his top five regrets of all time right along with hanging out with Epstein well maybe that isn't a regret after all he had a chance to say that he didn't so who knows what his biggest regrets really are but this has to be at the top of the list right given this interview outing yourself for a complete moron for the whole entire world to see before it was just people who were paying attention to the royal family right a lot of you out there follow the royal family and stuff you all knew that Prince Andrew was an absolute boob frankly until the Jeffrey Epstein story I had no idea who he really was besides the Prince of England I

had no desire to research him I didn't care I really just didn't care about him or anyone in the royal family for that matter and I still feel the same way when this saga closes you know I really have nothing else to say about the royal family honestly it's just I have bigger problems I guess you know I always talk about how my yard is if my yard's dirty I can't talk about my neighbors so I have my own problems here in the United States to worry about I can't worry about you know the royal family but Prince Andrew's bitch ass oh yeah bro you're on the radar forever now and as long as you stick around and you keep hanging out with the royal family and trying to make your way back well people like me are going to make your life miserable and the collateral damage unfortunately for you and the royal is is going to be the royal family she replied I think he was a bomb waiting to go off he wanted to say something he wanted to vindicate himself reports the express now I know that seems ludicrous

now but nobody thinks they're going to do a bad interview he thought he would explain himself and he thought this would all go away so I suspect if you went back he would still do an interview but I doubt it would be with Emily and I doubt it would be with newsnight oh I doubt that as well he'd probably go and do the interview with the guy that got all of those Maxwell family interviews whatever that dude's name is over in England the guy that was crowing about how Maxwell's innocent and this is all a setup the blah blah blah blah whoever that clown is I don't even remember his name but that's probably the person he would have went and had the interview with or maybe he would have set it up with one of his boys in New York Mr. Clogs himself George Stepanopoulos maybe Katie Curric weren't they all at Prince Andrew's little Shware dinner that Jeffrey Epstein through through form and again I don't know about you folks but me personally I've never been to dinner with one child abuser never mind multiple in January the

Duke of York was stripped of his military titles in the face of the legal battle over accusations by Virginia Roberts 38 Miss Roberts said she was coerced into sexual encounters with Andrew in 2001 by Epstein and his longtime co-conspirator General All-around Scuzzbag fellow child abuser Golan Maxwell on three different occasions Andrew who was always denied the allegations against him in March agreed to pay a multi million pound sum with no admission of liability to bring the civil sexual assault case to a close it's funny how everyone's so cautious when they talk about Andrew as well you know what I'll say it I wish the royal family would sue me because I have news for you we're going all the way to discovery I would sue I would I would go all the way to discovery with these people so I don't know what all these journalists are so scared about oh I don't want to slander him how can you slander a scumbag like this at this point a man that was willing to stand on the

sidelines well abused girls suffered a man that according to Virginia took part in the abuse himself as part of the settlement which is not an admission of guilt the Duke vow to demonstrate is regret for his association with Epstein by supporting the fight against the evils of sex trafficking and by supporting its victims this is so ridiculous it says ridiculous is putting a line Maxwell and Dan Berry with other victims of human traffickers as if that won't be triggering to them but this is crazy Prince Andrew is going to become this fighter against human trafficking the controller of widows the friend to orphans the patron saint of lepers that's what he is all of a sudden please miss me with the bullshit please but this did not save the prince's reputation which virtually died as the newsnight interview was broadcast

miss McAllister said she still can't believe some of what the royal set on camera she couldn't believe either that the interview was eventually going to happen she told miss Willoughby and Phillips a show field who who would say yes to being on newsnight when you're accused of the things you're accused of here of there I never for a second believe that this negotiation would be successful yeah me either how in the hell would Prince Andrew ever agree to this it is so bizarre that this dude would agree to this it's just I don't even be nowhere to begin the producer went on to explain that Princess Beatrice whom Andrew invited to the final negotiations made the difference between yes and no hey look his daughter is doing the right thing she wants to believe her dad right I want to believe my dad I want to believe that my dad's a good man how many of us believe our fathers are superheroes almost so of course if someone's saying this about your dad you're not going to believe it right and

you're gonna say to your dad hey dad just go go clear the air go get on the record and tell these people what's up I know I'd be pushing for my dad to tell the truth and I'm sure that's what his daughter was doing here the dukes eldest daughter was a real curveball for the production team is miss miss McAllister said miss McAllister explained I turned up to the negotiations a little bit brassy and Prince Andrew said oh by the way I have brought someone with me I thought it had to be a lawyer and then round the corner Princess Beatrice appeared when asked how she dealt with the princess being there the producer answered I asked her tentative questions as she was just looking at her dad look it has to be a bit uncomfortable right you're about to blast this dude with a bunch of serious questions about sexual abuse and his relationship with a notorious pedophile and he brings his daughter so again not Beatrice's fault but Prince Andrew once again trying to use his children as a shield and real men

do not bring their family into these sorts of matters that's for damn sure real men don't find themselves in these sorts of matters but here Prince Andrew is and well a real man he is not all right folks that's gonna do it for this episode if you'd like to contact me you can do that at Bobby Capucci at proton male dot com that's be oh BBY CAPU CCI at proton male dot com you can also find me on Twitter at be oh BBY underscore CAPU CCI the link that we discussed can be found in the description box what's up everyone and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles so Prince Andrew's dumbass is back in the news and we're hearing from one of his pals a lawyer who is a defamation lawyer named Paul Tweed who said he advised Prince Andrew about speaking to BBY C and giving that newsnight interview he told Prince Andrew that it was an absolutely terrible

idea but like usual Prince Andrew well he knows better the Queen also told them not a great idea buddy but of course Andrew thought he was gonna get up there and gaslight everybody and tell the whole world that he was an innocent man and instead it was the opposite reaction wasn't it everybody took a look at that interview and said to themselves what an absolute ski vats this dude is he didn't offer any bit of evidence he didn't offer anything that would change my mind anyway about what we have learned about this dude and besides a bunch of nonsense coming from surrogates and people around him there's nobody that's serious that's talking about Prince Andrew making a comeback or anything like that that's all just fantasy land stuff that his camp floats out there you know the four or five people that are still around them they float that out there and they see what happens what's the reaction gonna be but the reality for Prince Andrew is the party is over he's never coming back he's never gonna be

welcome to back in the polite society and most certainly not as a representative of the English people today we have an article from the Daily Mail dot com headline I warned Prince Andrew it was a bad idea to agree to the infamous newsnight interview Duke of York's lawyer pal says this article was authored by Vanessa Allen and Claudia Joseph you have to be one dumbass moron to think doing that interview is a good idea there was never a point in time when that interview should have even been a thing for Prince Andrew the answer should have been no thank you all pass and if you're innocent or if Jeffrey Epstein was black mowing you or something you should have went to the authorities and sat down with the FBI and spilled the beans you didn't do anything like that what you did was you retreated behind your mom skirts Prince Andrew was warned it was a bad idea for him to discuss his links with this grace financier pedophile Jeffrey Epstein on Newsnight a friend revealed

yesterday lawyer Paul Tweed said he advised the Duke of York again speaking to the BBC about his links with the convicted pedophile and then told the senior aide is he mad no way no no no he said Andrew ignored his vice and made his mind up to tell his version of events to the broadcaster and when you have a friend of yours who's a lawyer telling you this a good lawyer and you know not somebody you're paying but a good lawyer who's just a friend and they're advising you not to have this conversation on national TV it's probably a good idea to listen to what they're saying and if not well you only have yourself to blame and Prince Andrew once again has made a cage of his very own design that he's living in this man has created all of his own problems nobody created these problems for him nobody told him to pal around with Epstein nobody told him to be a general all around dickhead he chose to do all of that just like

he chose to ignore the good advice of his friend here Paul Tweed and do the interview the disastrous 2019 interview and its fallout effectively ended Andrew's role in public life the Duke admitted he had visited Epstein shortly after the billionaire financier pedophiles released from jail for soliciting underage sex and said that was the wrong decision yeah you think the wrong decision the Prince of England a Prince of the blood going to hang out with a convicted pedophile sleeping on his couch break and bread with him and doing more knows what else I think it's safe to say that that ranks right up near the top of bad decisions of all time he said he did not regret his association with Epstein as it had some seriously beneficial outcomes and gave no apology to Epstein's victims no he didn't he sat there and acted like he was being victimized or something like he was being wrongfully targeted bro everything

you did with your boy Epstein everything you did with all of the other undesirable scumbags you were hanging out with you have to know at some point was gonna come home and those chickens were gonna roost but when you're somebody like Prince Andrew and you have these kinds of narcissistic traits you don't see that for what it is you don't see that there's a problem with what you're doing because guess what you can never be wrong right you're always in the right on Prince Andrew I've never been reprimanded I've never been punished I've never been told no so why should I be told no now and that's the way Prince Andrew has always lived his life and thankfully he had a nice dose of reality during this interview when basically a bucket of cold ass water was dumped on his head and he was told it was time to wake up but unfortunately he seems to still be sleepwalking through life the interview is now at the center of a two-part channel for documentary Andrew the problem Prince the program includes

insights from the news 19 which film the interview journalist Emily Mailless and producer Sam McAllister lawyers for one of the Epstein survivors and Andrew's friends Mr. Tweed a defamation lawyer and longstanding friend of the Duke said he was told about the plans for an interview a month before it was filmed speaking to Andrew as a friend he said look that would not be a good idea sir he's he then got a call from Andrew's then Chief of Staff Amanda Thursk saying the Duke had decided to do the interview and we know that Amanda Thursk lost her job as well she's no longer working with the Prince who the hell knows what she's up to but she got canned in the end as well anybody who was okay with Andrew doing this interview should be fired and look like the rest of you I'm over the moon that he did it anytime one of these clowns wants to get on TV open their big fat yaps and expose themselves I'm all for it but as far as he's concerned and as far as his camp is concerned oh I'm sure there were many

nights of people staying up with Audita freaking out that this idiot was going to do this interview and when you have a good friend of yours like Paul Tweed telling you bro you're making a big mistake you should probably listen mr. Tweed told the channel for documentary I said is he mad no way no no no that's a bad idea you should not do it Amanda just said look Paul I've got to go I'll call you later the phone was put down abruptly and that was it so instead of taking the advice of his lawyer friend mr. Tweed here he's taking the advice of all of the yes men that are around him and that's the biggest problem when you're surrounded by yes men and nobody has the courage to ever say to you look you're acting out of line you're talking out of the side of your neck you're being stupid well you're just gonna go on and continue to be stupid and you know what they say right play stupid games and you win stupid prizes and Prince Andrew is the king of winning stupid

prizes so obviously the Duke for better or for worse had made up his mind he was going to do it the Duke made that decision on his own against most advice mr. Tweed said Andrew was a very decent straightforward individual but believes he had been very naive in his dealings with Epstein oh give me a break it's always naive this naive that vaughan ghoul naive he knew what he was doing and he chose to chill with Epstein even when Epstein was outed so I don't want to hear shit about oh he's naive he didn't know who Epstein was he didn't know what Epstein was up to everybody knew he said the relationship was totally ill judged totally inappropriate and he believed Epstein had set up a notorious photo of himself with the Duke in New York Central Park in 2010 we know that's not true either we've heard from the photo the photographers who took the photo who said they just happened to see this situation unfolding and we're in the right place at the right time Andrew's camp though they floated the idea that this was all a setup Epstein had served an 18-month

sentence for soliciting sex from an underage girl in Florida and had been released from prison just months before Andrew visited him in New York he was later found dead in his prison cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges so your boy gets out of jail right for sex offense and then you the Prince of England decide you're gonna fly across the pond and go stay at his house and then you're gonna tell us you did all of that because you wanted to tell him you didn't want to be friends anymore that's your story that's the narrative you're sticking to no wonder your friends didn't want you to do that interview mr. Tweed who has represented Andrew's ex-wife Sarah Ferguson in civil litigation said the effect of the newsnight interview on the Duke and his family has been horrendous but believed he could return the public life saying I would never say never in any case well must be smoking mushrooms because there's no way Prince Andrew is ever coming back to public life

unless of course he provides some evidence that shows that his accuser is not telling the truth you have that evidence let's see it but until you can provide something as far as evidence is concerned shut up and go back to the stable and muck the shit in the newsnight interview Andrew denied claims from one of Epstein survivors Virginia Roberts that she was trafficked to have sex with him in 2001 when she was 17 he told Ms. Mailless he did not remember meeting Ms. Roberts and he was at a birthday party at a pizza express and woking on the day she said that they met him going to a pizza express and woking is like Bill Clinton going to your local pizza hut it's not going to happen he also denied her recollection of him sweating heavily as they danced out a nightclub in central London and insisted he had been unable to sweat after an adrenaline overdose during the Falklands war meanwhile there's tons of pictures of dumb dumb over here sweating through a shirt

Andrew paid a reported 9.6 million pounds settlement to Ms. Roberts after she launched the civil lawsuit in New York accusing him of sexual abuse although he continues to deny any wrongdoing Ms. Roberts lawyers Sigrid McCauley said the newsnight interview gave her a road map to tear him apart in the civil claim 100% again I've said it from the beginning and I'll continue to say it folks Prince Andrew is his own worst enemy all right folks that's going to do it for this one all of the information that goes with the episode can be found in the description box airline
