Podcast appearances and mentions of melinda french gates

Bill Gates faces backlash after apologizing to staff over ties to Jeffrey Epstein and admitting to past affairs. The panel debates accountability, media narratives, Melinda French Gates' response, and whether powerful elites are finally being exposed in the internet age.

In a February 2026 internal meeting with employees of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Bill Gates acknowledged that he had two extramarital affairs with Russian women during his marriage to Melinda French Gates. According to reports from The Wall Street Journal and others, Gates said one relationship was with a Russian bridge player he met at events and the other with a Russian nuclear physicist he encountered through business activities. He stressed that these affairs were unrelated to any of Jeffrey Epstein's victims and that he never witnessed or took part in any illegal behavior.Gates framed his admissions as part of a broader apology for his past association with Epstein, which included meetings and travel together after Epstein's 2008 conviction that Gates now calls “a huge mistake.” He told the staff that his interactions with Epstein, including involving foundation executives, had cast a shadow over the organization's reputation and that he regretted the decisions. Gates maintained he had “done nothing illicit” while also taking responsibility for the personal and professional consequences of his choicesto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill Gates admits he had two affairs with Russian women, apologizes for Epstein links

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has admitted he had two affairs with Russian women while married to his now-ex-wife, Melinda French Gates, just like the Epstein Files says he did, and on Tuesday issued a groveling apology for his connection to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. This is a stunning revelation, and it begs the question as to why the Department of Justice has not launched a full-scall investigation into the other allegations contained in the files. Who doesn't want that to come to light? To find the answer to that question, we must go to the Oval Office.

They're Australian citizens, but large sections of the public and political sphere don't want to see them come home. A group of 34 Australians, women known as "ISIS Brides" and their children are trying to return home after living in Syrian camps for years. But there are concerns over their arrival back down under, legally speaking though, can we stop them? And should we? And in headlines today, The two men arrested yesterday over the alleged abduction and murder of a Sydney grandfather, have been charged; Former cyclist and swimmer Amanda Reid continues to break new ground by becoming the first Indigenous athlete selected for an Australian Winter Paralympics team; US President Donald Trump has broken his own record, delivering the longest State of the Union address in history; Microsoft founder Bill Gates has admitted to having affairs with Russian women while married to Melinda French Gates and has apologised to his staff for his ties to Jeffrey Epstein; The man whose life was made into a movie about his experience with Tourette's syndrome, has apologised to Michael B Jordan and Delroy Lindo after his tic saw him shout out a racial slur during their appearance on stage at the BAFTAs THE END BITS Support independent women's media Check out The Quicky Instagram here GET IN TOUCHShare your story, feedback, or dilemma!

Melinda French Gates has described her single meeting with Jeffrey Epstein in 2013 as deeply unsettling, stating that she “regretted it the second [she] walked in the door” and later referred to him as “evil personified.” She said the dinner at his Manhattan residence left her disturbed—uncomfortable with both the setting and her then-husband Bill's decision to associate with Epstein. Her unease was so strong that she made her disapproval known directly to Bill, highlighting how Epstein's presence and ties created significant tension in their marriageMoreover, Melinda has indicated that Epstein's involvement with Bill Gates became one of the contributing factors in her decision to seek a divorce after 27 years of marriage. In her memoir and past interviews, she has attributed part of the breakdown in their relationship to what she viewed as Bill's ill-advised meetings and connection with Epstein. The public resurgence of her comments—calling Epstein abhorrent and acknowledging how the revelations caused nightmares—has underscored her continuing disapproval of that association.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comTo contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10573431/Melinda-Gates-slams-Bills-friendship-pedophile-Jeffrey-Epstein-CBS-interview.html

Description: The Epstein scandal has a new, explosive chapter. Following the DOJ's massive 2026 document release, Bill Gates is firing back against claims that he contracted an STD from "Russian girls" and tried to secretly medicate his then-wife, Melinda French Gates. In a rare and emotional interview with 9News Australia, Gates breaks his silence on the draft emails Epstein wrote to himself in 2013, calling them "absolutely false" and an attempt at "entrapment." We break down the most shocking lines from the 3 million newly released pages and analyze why the Microsoft founder says he was "foolish" to ever trust Epstein.

Yesterday, a bomb was dropped into the controversy surrounding the Epstein Files, and it came from Bill Gates ex-wife Melinda French Gates. She went on NPR and allowed herself to be asked about the references to Bill Gates in the Epstein Files. Were they true or not true? What she said, multiple times, catapulted the Epstein Files into the stratosphere, taking them from ‘conjecture and speculation' to rock solid truth. Bill and Hillary Clinton have now agreed to testify under oath about Epstein, setting a precedent that may just bring down the entire DC cabal. Donald Trump, mentioned 5,300 times in the Epstein Files, says he now wants to ‘nationalize the elections'. I bet he does. Today we show you the stunning beginning of the end, and what comes next.“Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.” Ecclesiastes 10:20 (KJB)

This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter. Melinda French Gates knows everyone wants to talk about her divorce. She gets it, and she's covered it her new book, Next Day, about handling life's transitions. But also, what she wants to talk about is change. How we pick ourselves up after those big moments that knock us off course, whether it's the end of a relationship, losing a job, becoming a parent, kids leaving home, losing someone or a a big career shift. Transitions, she knows, are moments of both struggle and opportunity. French-Gates is the computer scientist, philanthropist and advocate who, along with her former husband, Bill Gates, founded the Gates Foundation, raising and donating billions of dollars to improve health outcomes for some of the most vulnerable communities in the world. After her separation, French-Gates established her own philanthropic organisation, Pivotal, to advance issues that affect women and girls. In this episode of MID she talks about how to tap into that inner whisper that becomes a roar, what her life looks like post-divorce and what she wants everyone to know about moving on 'The Next Day'. You can buy Melinda French Gates' book here. Find more MID here.

According to reporting from former insiders at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and investigative journalists, Gates pursued a relationship with Epstein beginning around 2011 — not for friendship, but because Epstein claimed he could leverage his wide-reaching social network to help Gates secure a Nobel Peace Prize. Epstein allegedly told Gates's foundation staff that he could open doors to influential “Nobel influencers,” positioning himself as a back-channel fixer for elite favors. Their contacts reportedly culminated in a 2013 meeting in France with Thorbjørn Jagland, then-chair of the committee that awards the Nobel Peace Prize — a move widely interpreted as an attempt to put Gates in closer proximity to the Prize's decision-makers.Despite that outreach, the efforts appear to have failed. Gates has since publicly called his dealings with Epstein “a huge mistake,” saying in interviews that he first met Epstein hoping to raise philanthropic funds but that nothing materialized. The association, however, severely damaged Gates's reputation, helped catalyze his divorce from Melinda French Gates, and raised deep questions about how the super-wealthy may try to game institutions meant to reward genuine service and altruism rather than influence and social connections.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Bill Gates has once again been pulled back into the Jeffrey Epstein maelstrom as newly resurfaced records and correspondence reignite questions about the true depth of his relationship with Epstein—long after Epstein's 2008 conviction made his reputation impossible to ignore. The latest disclosures include communications involving Gates' philanthropic circle that appear to show Epstein positioning himself as a broker of influence, attempting to connect Gates with political figures and high-level networks. These revelations undermine the long-standing public narrative that Gates only met with Epstein a handful of times for benign philanthropic purposes and had no meaningful partnership with him. They also intensify scrutiny over why one of the most powerful and well-informed figures in the world continued to engage with someone already known as a convicted sex offender.The renewed spotlight has also revived the internal controversy surrounding Gates' personal life, including widely reported tensions within his marriage as Melinda French Gates repeatedly objected to the association and later described Epstein in strikingly harsh terms. As more details surface, Gates' attempts to minimize the relationship appear increasingly strained, especially with each new record that contradicts earlier public statements. What was once portrayed as a minor footnote now looks like a strategic, mutually beneficial connection—raising the central unresolved question: Why was Bill Gates willing to maintain contact with Epstein after the world knew who Epstein truly was?to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

The Covid Inquiry led by Baroness Hallett has concluded that the UK did too little too late in response to Covid-19, that the lockdown could have been avoided if steps such as social distancing and isolating had been introduced earlier. Joining Anita Rani to give their response to the findings and tell their stories of that time, are musical theatre actor Ruthie Henshall, whose mother died in a care home during Covid and Naomi Fulop, from Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice UK, who also lost her mother during this time.

In 2000, Melinda co-founded the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which has - to date - donated over one hundred billion dollars to charitable projects. She and Bill Gates married in 1994 and divorced in 2021, after 27 years of marriage. Melinda has since left their joint enterprise and set up her own, Pivotal Ventures, which has one purpose: to put power into the hands of women.

Bill Gates has once again been pulled back into the Jeffrey Epstein maelstrom as newly resurfaced records and correspondence reignite questions about the true depth of his relationship with Epstein—long after Epstein's 2008 conviction made his reputation impossible to ignore. The latest disclosures include communications involving Gates' philanthropic circle that appear to show Epstein positioning himself as a broker of influence, attempting to connect Gates with political figures and high-level networks. These revelations undermine the long-standing public narrative that Gates only met with Epstein a handful of times for benign philanthropic purposes and had no meaningful partnership with him. They also intensify scrutiny over why one of the most powerful and well-informed figures in the world continued to engage with someone already known as a convicted sex offender.The renewed spotlight has also revived the internal controversy surrounding Gates' personal life, including widely reported tensions within his marriage as Melinda French Gates repeatedly objected to the association and later described Epstein in strikingly harsh terms. As more details surface, Gates' attempts to minimize the relationship appear increasingly strained, especially with each new record that contradicts earlier public statements. What was once portrayed as a minor footnote now looks like a strategic, mutually beneficial connection—raising the central unresolved question: Why was Bill Gates willing to maintain contact with Epstein after the world knew who Epstein truly was?to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Melinda French Gates has said she became uneasy about Bill Gates's repeated meetings with Jeffrey Epstein as early as 2013, warning him that she did not like his association with Epstein and that she “made that clear to him.” One account states that she met Epstein exactly once and left feeling the encounter was deeply unsettling, describing him as “evil personified.” Melinda is reported to have discussed divorce preparations with lawyers by 2019 in part due to concerns about Bill's ties to Epstein, indicating that the Epstein relationship was among a number of issues she believed made their marriage unhealthy or untrustworthy.Bill Gates has publicly acknowledged that his interactions with Epstein were a “huge mistake” and said he was “foolish to spend any time with him,” explaining that he initially believed Epstein might help with philanthropic fundraising but that in retrospect the relationship did not yield positive results and damaged his reputation.Virginia Roberts Giuffre has publicly alleged that Bill Gates was present on Jeffrey Epstein's private island (Little Saint James). This claim has circulated in interviews, public commentary, and survivor-oriented discussions in the Epstein network context, and has been referenced in reporting and commentary surrounding Gates's relationship with Epstein. She has stated that she encountered him within Epstein's environment and that he was part of the orbit surrounding Epstein's trafficking and social circle.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In a recent Wall Street Journal interview, Bill Gates revisited his controversial relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, acknowledging that meeting with the convicted sex offender was "a huge mistake." However, Gates's admission of “foolishness” rings hollow to critics, who question why such a highly intelligent and influential figure would repeatedly associate with Epstein, even after his criminal history was publicly known. Gates claimed he engaged with Epstein in hopes of advancing global health philanthropy, yet no tangible benefits emerged from these meetings, raising concerns about his judgment and motivations. Critics argue that Gates's wealth and power afforded him ample resources to explore other philanthropic avenues without involving a figure as toxic as Epstein.Additionally, Gates's attempts to downplay the personal fallout from his ties to Epstein invite further skepticism. Reports suggest that Epstein tried to exploit their acquaintance by threatening to expose an alleged affair involving Gates, adding a layer of complexity to the narrative. Gates's repeated meetings with Epstein—despite his then-wife Melinda French Gates expressing discomfort—cast doubt on his sincerity and decision-making. His efforts to frame the relationship as a lapse in judgment fail to address the broader implications of why someone in his position would disregard ethical concerns for potential personal or professional gain. This relationship has left a lingering stain on Gates's reputation, with critics questioning whether his contrition comes from genuine regret or the need to repair his public image.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill Gates Addresses His Friendship with Sex Offender Jeffrey Epstein: ‘I Was Foolish'Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
