And yeah, that's why it's important for me to not get too caught up in the Epstein files, because it's such an anomaly of a topic and world event. And for me, it's important to prove that I didn't get lucky, and that there's actually something here. And that's the ambition about doing Wardesk. Wardesk at the end of this month is going to cross a hundred thousand downloads. And for a channel that has never had any content, any audience, it's a brand new naked channel.

And there are a few more additional depositions still to come, including the co-executor of Epstein's estate and the committee subpoenaed Bondi to come back and testify again, this time about how Epstein died.

“… at two? Yeah, we still have our third topic. Okay. That's what I was going to say. And so speaking of things I don't like, it's so hard to keep these. No, it's so hard to keep young people focused. Yeah, yeah. I'm the unfocused one. I'm the one that I'm the one taking us off track. Sure. OK, speaking of things that are dark, I just want to quickly talk about the congressional investigation of Epstein and DOJ's handling of the files. So this week, Epstein's accountant testified, the Clintons testified in the last few weeks, and so did Les Wexner, Epstein's former employer.
