Podcast appearances and mentions of Paula Jones

Kathleen Willey: Target: Caught in the Crosshairs of Bill and Hillary ClintonJust in time for Hillary Clinton's 2008 Presidential campaign comes Kathleen Willey's explosive new book that details how her life was changed - and nearly destroyed - by Bill and Hillary Clinton. Target contains never-before-released details of the intimidation campaign launched to silence Kathleen...one way or the other. It provides new insight not just into the death of Kathleen's husband -- on the same day that Bill Clinton assaulted Kathleen in the Oval Office - but into Bill's sexual addiction and Hillary's compulsive enabling, a dangerous combination when partnered with the power of the presidency. Willey makes a persuasive case that Hillary should NOT be returned to the White House in ANY capacity.And, as evidence that the Clintons haven t changed, the terror and harassment continue. Over 2007's Labor Day weekend, Kathleen's home was burglarized. Instead of taking jewelry or computers, the thief took the manuscript for Target, with its explosive revelations that could damage Sen. Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign.It was a break-in all too reminiscent of an incident 10 years ago in which Kathleen was threatened by a stranger just two days before she was to testify against President Clinton in the Paula Jones sexual harassment case. It's déjà vu all over again -- and time to stop the Clinton machine once and for alBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

In this episode of The Compendium, we explore how the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal extended beyond a private affair between President Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky. It became part of a broader effort, with some suggesting it was a "vast conspiracy" aimed at undermining the presidency, using Monica and other women as pawns in a political agenda. We examine how the scandal escalated into an impeachment trial and a media frenzy, with secret tapes at its center. Today, we uncover the truth and untold layers behind one of the most significant political scandals of the 20th century.We give you the Compendium, but if you want more, then check out these great resources:"Monica's Story" by Andrew Morton"The Starr Report" by Kenneth Starr"A Vast Conspiracy: The Sex Scandal That Nearly Brought Down a President" by Jeffrey Toobin"The Clinton Affair" – Documentary series by A&E“Impeachment” the American Crime StoryMessage Kyle and AdamConnect with Us:

Let's cut right to the chase: Ally is looking for a certain kind of man to satisfy her needs, and she's not finding him. This isn't your typical female ask for a life partner or a long-term relationship. It's more a recognition that she's had difficulty finding someone who can get the job done for her. Which brings up an interesting difficulty that women can face: It's actually difficult to find out, early in a relationship, how a guy is going to perform in bed. Or, indeed, if he'll be able to perform at all. And, I suspect dick pix are no help, as they're often taken in a flaccid state, or taken from an angle that just doesn't do justice to the man's true stature. Along the way, we discuss Peyronie's disease, some listener feedback on the podcast and listener questions. And, Mike informs Ally that none other than Bill Clinton, according to a sexual harassment lawsuit by Paula Jones, suffers from Peyronie's Disease. It's an epidemic!

Thank you so much. You're so excited for this episode. Hello, and welcome to the SNL Hall of Fame conversation portion of the episode. Today, I am joined by an amazing guest, a mainstay at the SNL Hall of Fame, for sure. He's been advocated for a lot of great SNL, current SNL Hall of Famers, actually. So, like, what, Will Ferrell? Jamie, how many people have you gotten into the SNL Hall of Fame? I think you're on a pretty good run. I'm trying to think. We've definitely done quite a few episodes. I'd have to look to see what the actual track record is to know the percentage. Yeah, Will Ferrell got in. Yeah, and you were on for Molly? I was on for Molly. I don't think she got in, though. Did she? Well, Molly's a new inductee. Oh, okay. In the latest. Yes. All right. So Molly got in. Christopher Walken.Track 4:[5:09] Yes, that was my episode. So you're on a pretty good hot streak. Okay, okay. I think. Nice. So I think you're the perfect person to come on and chat about Sherry O'Terry. But I'm going to formally welcome you, Jamie Burwood. Welcome back to the SNL Hall of Fame. How are you doing? How have you been? I'm doing good. It's great to be back here this summer. Yeah, just having a good start to the summer, doing some beach time coming up. But yeah, it's been great. Happy to be here. Yeah, beach time for all of us. That's what this summer is about. It's beach time 2024. So I'm glad you're partaking as well. Is there anything you'd like to plug up top before we get started here? Talking about Sherry? Yeah, I feel like TV show graphs is still my go-to account on TV.Track 4:[6:03] Twitter, Instagram, all of the places, tvshowgraphs.com. Yeah, it has the whole library of a lot of the TV-related data deep dives I've done in the past, exploring a few new topics coming up soon. So hopefully as some of the summer travel slows down, there'll be some new stuff up there soon. But yeah, otherwise I kind of have just been chilling the last few months. So enjoying the start of the summer.Track 4:[6:27] Well, I think you've earned it. Your graphs and the website, side that's like quite the rabbit hole like a true tv fan could spend a lot of time going down that rabbit hole it's pretty cool so you you deserve it any sort of break you get you definitely deserve it jamie so today our nominee like i mentioned sherry o'terry right in your will house jamie like i said you've covered the air a few times here on the snl hall of fame and of course today talking about um somebody who's beloved to us sherry o'terry uh jamie for What was it about Sherry O'Terry that may have first got your attention when you saw her? Yeah, I feel like the zaniness and how memorable her characters are. I feel like she's somebody that, in my opinion, doesn't get talked about enough. And in some ways, she is well-recognized. She has her best of collection. I feel like people do acknowledge her role in that era of SNL and just how important it is. But there's just something really captivating about her wackiness and the way that she commits to all of these characters that she does. And I think for me, that was really what drew me in. Like, there's just something about watching a sketch with her where you can't quite look away in a good way, I think.Track 4:[7:47] Yeah, no, I agree. I agree. And I think sometimes, maybe sometimes I feel like I might throw around the term underrated or underappreciated a lot. But I honestly think in Sherry's case, it fits. And I have, I guess there are theories floating out there as to why she might be underappreciated. But if you actually look at her work, look at the type of performer that she was, I do think she probably should be talked about more and be held in higher regard than she is. So I really do think there's something to that, Jamie. It's not just like throwing out there like, oh, she's a little underappreciated. Like with Sherry O'Terry, I truly, truly think she is. So neither of us say that lightly. Absolutely. Yeah, I feel like she's somebody who...Track 4:[8:32] Just her role in that era, I hope that people recognize. And just, we've talked a little bit in the past in some of the earlier episodes, but just the role that she had in showing how funny female comedians on SNL can be. And just this willingness to go all out and commit fully. And I don't think she's the only one in her cast who does that. I feel like Molly, Will, many others embody that. But there's something to me special about Sherry in just the way that she went all in on things. And she's somebody who you could put her alongside Will Ferrell. And I would argue she doesn't get overshadowed. They match each other. And the chemistry just builds upon each other.Track 4:[9:19] And I feel like she had this knack for kind of elevating some of these sketches where she was working alongside other greats, other Hall of Famers. And she not only holds her own but just makes things so much better yeah i mean when you're trying to revive snl and we've talked about this before prior to season 21 they did almost a full house cleaning like molly was a carryover norm was a carryover there may be a few care but it was pretty much cleaning house from season 20 to season 21 and sherry i always thought crucial like almost a performer like that's necessary for the revival remind people just like how just how much that season 21 cast just revived this show yeah absolutely i feel like it was just a shift in a different kind of comedy at a time where the show really needed it right like it was away from that kind of like meaner vibe which had its time and place on the show but i feel like there were just aspects that were starting to feel a little bit tired, starting to feel not really keeping up with what people wanted to see. And I feel like the tone of the show really shifted into this very, like.Track 4:[10:40] Character centric we got lots of the great greatest of all time in my opinion recurring sketches recurring characters in this era and i feel like sherry in particular really embodied that kind of character actress character comedian and just not being afraid to be be silly and people responded to that really well i think and i think that was a big part of why why that era is remembered so fondly yeah i think it toward the end there it got exhausting just like there's a lot of that mean comedy a lot of the bad boy quote-unquote stuff and then we entered a stage you're right of like character driven a lot of goofy like a lot of goofball kind of comedy was very refreshing and sherry was such such a vital part of that as far as her path to snl cliff's notes not a ton honestly sherry seems a little private uh not a ton of known about her personal life she's from philadelphia the philadelphia area moved to la in her 20s she's a groundling so she did a lot of quality sketch training before starting at snl her audition was really great i don't know if you had a chance to see it it's on youtube uh so i encourage everyone to check that out but the her audition was like eight minutes and and what she showed in her audition she did three characters that ended up on the show but right away you can see like why Lorne and everybody else who saw that edition were like, we got to have Sherry. So I don't know, Jamie, if you've ever seen the audition. I haven't.Track 4:[12:08] Yeah, I do like them. I haven't watched hers. If I haven't, it's definitely been a while, so I'll have to go back and do that. Yeah, it's really fun. So she had a great audition. You could see why she got chosen for the cast. So she starts off 1995, season 21, Sherry O'Terry, Will Ferrell, the rest of the crew. So I want to get into it. like.Track 4:[12:30] What characters or sketches, Jamie, do you go to when you think about Sherry O'Terry? Yeah, so let me talk about a few characters because I feel like, honestly, most of my favorite Sherry sketches are around some of her well-known characters. And there are a few that are not, which we can talk about, too. But I feel like for me, a few of the ones that stand out, Rita Delvecchio, that like grouchy Philadelphia is the vibe woman who just is, I don't know if mean is the right word, but just that typical like kind of street smart lady.Track 4:[13:11] She's kind of like a little grumpy, but she's pretty likable at the same time. She's kind of that old lady who does who's like no nonsense she doesn't take any crap from the name especially the neighborhood kids i'm going on the porch for five minutes a piece the first one who calls me gets my slipper okay you kids got the whole street to play ball on but you're gonna play in front of my house that's okay because i keep it now okay i keep it it's mine now all right have your mother come get it i hear you smart ass but there's something very likable about her jamie like it's almost do you get the sense when you watch her do rita del vacchio that it's like a one-woman play it is i just for some for some reason that character in particular and like she does all sorts of different brands of like out there characters but for some reason like that what i just feel like is a connection and just work she does it so well and And the writing in most of the ones that she's done for her, I feel like, have been really solid. I feel like they tend to incorporate the host in a really fun way. Just kind of showing her amidst the neighborhood, I feel like.Track 4:[14:23] You then see kind of the host pop up and either like the neighbor or a kid or like all of these different like characters amidst her life. And it always just like feels really natural. Like I'm always happy when one of those sketches pops up in an episode. I'm like, Oh, we get to spend some time with Rhea. This is great. Yeah, no, it's amazing world building. And sometimes you're right. They'll, they'll work in the host and everything. And every now and then a character will come by a lot of times. It's just her standing there a lot of times by her front door, just like yelling at a neighbor. And she's and sherry's doing this such a good job of filling in the other person's dialogue there so it's just her on the screen but she's doing such a good job of making it a conversation.Track 4:[15:04] That only on screen only she's taking part in like she's so skilled at that and the whole role building this is something that she auditioned with she had this character sherry started building this whole world uh at the groundlings that that's just such a testament to her her talents is like a creative mind i think absolutely yeah i love the one with the the screen door and like the kids who are coming up to the screen door repeatedly that one always sticks sticks with me for some reason and you're right that is another example where it's like yes you have kids coming up to the door but she is like owning the comedy in each of those scenes and is having her like wild reactions to each one of those people coming up so completely yeah yeah and And she even made, in that particular installment, she even made kind of a boring host, Steve Forbes, like a very boring host. She actually made him, incorporated him really well into the sketch. She ended up stealing one of the kids' money that was coming up to take donations. She ended up taking the money and all of that. Yeah, that was a really great one with Steve Forbes. She puts a lot of love into that character. I think that's a great first choice.Track 4:[16:08] Yeah, she definitely does. And then I feel like for my second choice, and there's so many. But I just love Nadine and in terms of like when I was in high school and this era was I was in high school in the early 2000s ish so right around this era um there the whole like Simadown now, catchphrase was huge like I just remember friends I don't even know like when people first started saying it. I don't even think I really realized where it was coming from. And just like people embodying this character that she did on SNL only to like later recognize that connection. Excuse me, excuse me. My husband's been in a motorcycle accident. I think he broke his wrist. Yeah, I can't move it. It's swelling up really badly. Okay, everybody simmer down now.Track 4:[17:06] Listen, I would love to simmer down now, but you see my wrist is shattered. So I would encourage I encourage you to admit me now. Sir, your sass is unappreciated here. So before your obelisk becomes shattered, I suggest you fill out these forms and have a seat and then simmer down. That's correct. I love all of the Nadine sketches. I feel like the one with Garth Brooks is probably my favorite, like returning things at the desk there for the name of the store. But to me, that's a classic one and just, it's so fun. It's so fun. Yeah, yeah, I love it. You're right. That whole, the Simudan now, like just totally spread like wildfire. Always like people used to always do the impression where she's trying to start the car. Yes.Track 4:[17:59] Yeah, like, and then it goes Simudan. Yeah, there's all kinds of like different ways you could say Simudan now if you want to get creative. That definitely stuck. She only did it three times. Yep. And it caught on so well. Yeah, I also love the line, like Donna Summer and how does her name appear in the phone book, like Summer, Donna, like that, that to me is just great, great writing, great delivery, so much. Yeah, all those strained ways to make the connection to Simma down now. I love it.Track 4:[18:30] There's two, Jamie, that kind of when I think of Sherry O'Terry, I really connect with. And I'm going to talk about the one that she did the most, Barbara Walters. Yeah. She did that one 21 times, I think, last summer when the SNN, our friends at the SNN, did their character countdown. I believe Barbara Walters ended up on the list for good reason. I think that this is her best character. And something that Sherry said that she worked really hard at, she studied Barbara Walters quite a bit when she found out she was doing this. And there's been Barbara Walters impressions done on the show before. I think this is the quintessential one. What do you what do you say about her Barbara Walters? It's so good and like I Have heard that Sherry somebody who's nervous about like the impression aspect of the show coming in right and it's Not necessarily what you like maybe think of right away with her But this is I agree one of the all-time best things that she did over her time in the show I feel like it's a perfect example to me of an impression that like I.Track 4:[19:36] Is very, like, draws from the real person very well, but then also, like, plays things up in a way that gives it a life of its own so that it's not just, like, purely a copycat, but, like, becomes funny in its own right. Fidel Castro and I were roommates my freshman year in college. And girlfriends, let me tell you, he may be brilliant, he may be stubborn, but what I remember most is that he had some funky B.O. Whenever I see Fidel Castro, I just think he looks like an extra from MASH. I mean, you know what I mean? With that hat. Don't look at me.Track 4:[20:17] I just love any of the like VIEW segments where she popped up. I feel like those were always just a good time and just like meant for comedy, meant for parody. It was great. Yeah, I loved the VIEW one specifically when she would get mad at Debbie Martinopoulos. And she would do things like she one time she told her to go get in the cage that was a classic moment for me when she's like enough she's like go get get in the cage go now and then debbie monotonopoulos would just go do it and and this is just how she would kind of erupt at her you that was so funny and then she would uh reference like casually spending time with famous people and historical figures like i was in the hot tub with fidel castro when i found out that or just like the name dropping is wonderful.Track 4:[21:05] This Barbara Walters was one that could be used in so many different settings, Jamie. I give points for that. If you develop a character or do an impression, and it could be used on a talk show or weekend update, or this is such a versatile character.Track 4:[21:20] I agree. And again, it speaks to the theme of when she pops up and you're excited to see that character. And i think it's one that i don't think anyone could really get sick of or maybe somebody could but i certainly did not get sick of this one ever like i could see this every episode in her era and be happy with that yeah so this might be like if i was going to show one person an example of why i love sherry it might actually be her barbara walters like like this one makes me so happy for sure like amongst many that make me so happy and i'm sure that make you so happy you know like what what's what what's another character that people just can't miss for sherry yeah i feel like colette reardon is one that we should talk about the prescription pill addict lipstick smeared on the face and this is true for a lot of sherry's characters but i feel like there's just like an aesthetic to like the character she commits to and like a lot of times in similar outfits, makeup, just like you, you see that person and you're like, okay, I get what this is trying to be. And then Sherry just.Track 4:[22:36] It to to another level it's a good thing that the phone's on the fritz because sometimes i gots to shoot methadrine so i can fire up my toro leaf blower to clean my front lawn falls a bitch dick i don't care how you slice it methadrine you ever try a rake.Track 4:[22:57] Oh really any poop after five hours of methadrine fueled leaf blowing i get kind of confused and start making long distance phone calls i don't know how many of the um of the clut sketches there were i know she appeared a few times maybe on weekend update and then a few standalone sketches maybe like five okay yeah yeah yeah it felt like more honestly such a lived-in character yeah i feel like super memorable one um there was one where i.Track 4:[23:28] Feel like a phone is involved like you have pills coming out of the phone and she's trying to eat the pills which amazing physical comedy just this type of character i feel like she does really well and not in a hateful way like it's a character that you kind of have to like walk that fine line with right because it's like a little bit of a extreme scenario but you come away just being like oh my gosh this character is fabulous and and laughing all over well that's one thing that you know when i had john schneider on for the kristen wigg episode and we talked about when she would do characters uh and impressions that she didn't come at it in a mean way so we used as an example like target lady for kristen and wig that could have been done mean but you can tell there was love put into that and i think somebody like colette you know she she's whacked out on all these pills and and her hair's messed up messy lipstick she's always trying to hit on whoever and uh but like there's still an element of just like she sounds it seems like sherry has love for that character she's not trying to.Track 4:[24:36] To totally be mean to those kind of people or whatever. It's just like they almost... All of our characters almost seem likable, even as wacky as they are. That's such a gift, I think. It is. It really is. I feel like it's...Track 4:[24:51] You kind of see the other level of some of these characters and you watch them and you laugh, but you also just are like, oh, I want to spend time in this world and with this person and just see what antics they're up to. And she did that so well. Yeah, absolutely. This is one of the prime examples to me of a comparison that I've made with Sherry. Kind of think she always reminded me of Mike Myers on screen.Track 4:[25:16] Like just her energy. energy uh if she was in a sketch she was best as the the focus the focal point of the sketch she and mike both like every now and then they would kind of play the straight character the background but that's not what they did if it was a mike myers sketcher it was a sherry o'terry sketch i think or maybe she had a co-pilot and will ferrell sometimes or molly or something but she has this she had this mike myers energy about her that i see pop up in characters like Colette I don't know if I'm off base if we love to make comparisons as SNL fans but Mike Myers and Sherry Oteri was always one that that struck me yeah I can definitely see that like the the leadership in the like just like you said sure you could put her in a background role but it's it's almost a waste like you you want to see her in that that spotlight and I I feel like she has that kind of like magnetic quality yeah for sure um well what's uh what's another what's next on your list yeah i feel like we gotta talk spartan cheerleaders we talked okay during the episode but i again i feel like if you ask people on the street about sherry especially like more a casual fan or someone who.Track 4:[26:35] Maybe not like dedicated to this era as much but that, recurring sketch I feel like is just cemented into pop culture history in a really cool way and I feel like whenever I go back and watch some of these it, am impressed at just how her and Will feed off of each other. It almost feels like improv in some ways. Like, oh, yeah, as much as they're like, the writing is great, not to discount that, like, it just feels like they are in the moment just having fun as two performers, just like.Track 4:[27:11] Each going off of each other. And it, there's just an energy to these ones to me that I feel like is hard to top yeah you're right and i think no that's actually a credit to the writing that doesn't discount in any way i think paula pell who helped them write these was probably the third spartan cheerleader in these in these sketches like she did an amazing job but you're right like like uh showcasing sherry's talents unreal physical performer.Track 4:[27:36] She the way sometimes that she would just leap into will ferrell's arms and they would she would do this weird pose and or will ferrell would just like carry her around in a weird way like sherry Sherry was just fearless, such an amazing, fearless performer. I hope that when people see the cheerleader sketches, they're just not focused on Will, because Sherry's arguably topping his performance in this, honestly. I always thought Sherry was the better performer in these sketches specifically. I agree, actually. And I'm not sure how that dynamic played out in terms of, like, Like, was Will tempering in, like, letting her really be the super zany? And, I mean, he was pretty zany, too, so it's all relative. But I feel like that's the thing that surprises me the most re-watching these is, like, everyone knows, like, Will Ferrell. He's huge. He's, like, had such a big career. People think, okay, Spartan Triller is him. But you watch these and you're like, oh, my gosh, Sherry was killing it. And, again, not only, like, matching him but in some cases, like, going beyond. And that's really cool because I think, again, not everybody...Track 4:[28:46] Thinks of that but when you watch it it's there it really is oh my god ariana can you believe summer's over already i know craig i already missed my summer job at kenny rogers roasters i'm still getting the newsletter though.Track 4:[29:03] Well i'm glad my lifeguarding job is over i did not enjoy taking off my shirt no no craig tomorrow morning we are going to be real spartan cheerleaders this has got to be our year, It was an awesome idea to practice all night. Yeah, and my parents will never know I'm gone. I put my brother's blow-up doll underneath my sheets. Oh. Yeah, she would do these little things as Ariana, like, to give the character neurosis. Like, if it was a little sigh or nervous laughter or something like that, she was very expressive in her face and just the little, like, breaths that she would take. Like, something as a sketch performer, I always admire when I notice those little things, those little small beats that you know sherry thought about does naturally whatever but they're out there and uh yeah this is um if if not barbara walters maybe the cheer maybe ariana the cheerleader uh could be up there as far as like the quintessential sherry especially physically like as a physical performer i'll put ariana right up there and then one other recurring her in character that I want to make sure we talk about. And I think we only got this one a handful of times, but Althea, the little child who in one sketch is on a plane and another is on a bus, Sherry just going full-on annoying.Track 4:[30:27] Child in her layers of pink jackets and clothing and just embodying that... Hyper, chaotic, says-anything kid. I especially love the one with Chevy Chase as the pilot. I feel like to me that's the one that stands out. Dr. Burke, we're going to visit my Aunt Jane in Colorado, where it's called. My Aunt Jane has a life partner. Her name is Judy. They're not married. They're life partners. Life partners! Life partners! Althea, Althea, come on out. Watch the controls now. With my nose will any flight attendant please report to the cockpit any flight attendant please report to the cockpit run to the cockpit.Track 4:[31:21] That's the one actually uh the althea on a plane she actually auditioned with that too so that's like part of her audition really yeah she had the cap and everything like the whole the glasses like it was fully formed in the audition like it didn't seem like they changed much at all from the audition to to the air it does feel like one that like i feel like there's certain characters where they feel like okay this person like cared to develop this and it has that kind of like personal touch and i can absolutely see that with this one right it just seems like a character that she knows that she can embody very naturally um yeah this is just a really fun And I feel like, especially in the plane one with Chevy, the deadpan-ness of his character and the annoying.Track 4:[32:11] Just chattering away child of her character is just, it's such a fun, fun match and made for an awesome sketch. Yeah, for sure. and she would say things like not just weird things as a child but she would say like really precocious like things that like an adult would say or maybe she's repeating what an adult told her but but she would kind of like surprise the audience a little bit or the person she was interacting with by saying something really mature and adult like something beyond like you shouldn't know that or you shouldn't be saying that that's kind of interesting that you're saying that so i like that layer to this character it's a really fun one agreed yeah no i i feel like this is one that just feels very like true to sherry and like everything that she embodies yeah there was a uh along the lines i think of like the colette or alfea there was a one-off i don't know if you had a chance to see this one um her name's roberta it was sherry did this like in the the sixth episode of her first season. So she played somebody named Roberta and it was this dad work colleague who invited herself over to Thanksgiving dinner.Track 4:[33:22] So it was just very weird energy. She was very inappropriate. I'm surprised this actually wasn't a recurring character because this happened really early on in Sherry's career. But she just said these weird things that she thought were just normal, but everybody at the table was like, Oh my gosh, I think, I want to say Jennifer Aniston was in the sketch. But y'all should go look up Roberta because it's like a spiritual cousin to somebody like Colette or Althea or even Rita, like one of these just crazy characters. So I wanted to throw out that a one-off. Oh, that's so exciting. Are Sarah jetting off to Paris? Have you ever been to Scranton?Track 4:[34:06] Nope. Don't count it out. The beauty of the skyline alone made me do a double take. I stayed at the airport Ramada. Ooh, Ramada. It was funny because they hadn't washed the sheets. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. How is that funny? You didn't let me complete the tale. Oh, wow. The other one-off one that I love is with John Goodman playing Adele as the, like, flirty office character. Character just like basically coming in kind of dressed in her like scantily clad outfit um, saying things that are very obvious innuendo and then like going the next mile of explaining every little thing like this this one to me is just like really funny and again great great writing and like all of the different like innuendos that they throw out there, but she super committed, just like very physically on every person in the sketch. It was a fun one. Yeah. Well, this boy's got one thing in his pants that I'd like to wrap my sweaty little mitts around. I'm talking about putting my hands on your penis.Track 4:[35:33] Yes, and again, there's no confusion there. Adele, we got it. Thanks. Well, speaking of getting it, I'm gonna head over to the old icebox and get my oyster platter.Track 4:[35:48] What you looking at, fellas? this is a broke yeah she's totally owning the room in that too like like the office like she's just kind of making her way going to uh everybody i think i remember at one point she um says something suggestive to rachel dratch yes and rachel dratch is like i'm just an intern, i'm just a temp yeah why are you doing this and so yeah yeah that was a really funny one yeah that probably could have been a recurring character yeah as well i could have seen like obvious innuendo lady or yeah like in different settings like we had the office setting and put her in other like various professional worlds i feel like would have been yeah for sure uh there's what if so i i think i said something like she puts a lot of love like it doesn't seem like she, dislikes her any of her characters if there was one where she it was more so making fun of a type and maybe you could sense like there's some sort of meanness underneath the surface it was with the morning latte one yeah oh yeah we gotta talk about that yeah yeah morning latte she and will the dynamic duo again they first did this and i think in season 23 and then they just did a run of them uh famous ones with like chris farley was in a was in a really famous one just a lot of like hyper dumb energy jamie i love these ones yeah these these are great i feel like just that.Track 4:[37:14] Perfect morning talk show shtick and I know we've seen that from like a few cast members over the years but something about this one and this pairing we talked a little bit about like the improv vibe a little but I get that from this as well I'm just like two great people sitting down having fun I know Sherry has mentioned this as like one of her favorite recurring sketches at at some point and it it does just feel like fun fun riffing and just a little bit different from some of her other characters um in a way that's that's kind of fun like yeah crazy but like in a in a different way and more of that like contain talk show still weird but different kind of weird, yeah they're just so funny like they were uninformed about what was going on in the world So we're recording this the day after Joe Biden announced he was stepping down as the Democratic nominee. This is something that the morning latte people would be surprised by the following morning. Or they'd be like, did you hear that Joe Biden? They would just say it with such surprise because they don't follow the news, but they're supposed to be talking about a part of this morning show. They have terrible taste in movies. Cass, how was your weekend? Did you and Eli finally see Good Will Hunting? No, I did something even better. We saw Spice World. Ooh.Track 4:[38:41] That's supposed to be good. Frank, have you seen Spice World yet? I don't know what that is. Oh, well, I'll tell you. You know what I found myself saying after I saw this film? Move over, hard day's night. No kidding. Yes. No, I'm saying these gals are fabulous. That's what I've heard. Yeah, they have got more talent than anything out of Britain or England. Wow. Wow. Wow. Do you like when sketches have like, familiar beats within the sketch how is that for you as a viewer i i do really like that actually i feel like they're i don't know if it's like the comfort or just the style of i don't mind that at all as long as the the jokes are there to kind of hold it up still i i like that and i feel like for this one in particular there was something about that just like kind of.Track 4:[39:31] Sim like i don't know if that's the right word but just like not quite there a little bit like like you said, in their own worlds, combining that with the talk show format was enough to me. Sometimes you don't have to try to reinvent the wheel or do something crazy. It worked because the performers were great. And I think that's a testament to Sherry and to the cast. For sure. They would always involve their producer. So a lot of times the host would play. So John Goodman, Chris Farley, they would involve the producer. I love the bit where Will would say a word and sherry would interrupt him and confidently give a definition that was wrong and she would just say it so confidently like and of course that means this and then will would say no like i just i yeah i love those beats they did a perfect caricature of those cheesy morning show i was part of a morning zoo radio show so i can kind of relate a little bit to that this is something you don't think it's talked about enough and maybe within like snl fan community sure but like i I feel like there needs to be just, like, a giant reel of all of these, like, just great quotes and great moments from this. I feel like it holds up. And sure, some of the pop culture stuff is very much a relic of the time, but the jokes and the...Track 4:[40:48] Dim-wittedness of these characters and how funny that can be i think does really hold up yeah yeah absolutely go back and like deep dive like binge on these morning lattes i found some on tiktok so i googled search and then they came up on tiktok a lot i've been seeing that more and more for snl clips like and i'm i'm not a big tiktoker but i am like okay this is this is kind of refreshing to me that like that's out there in another way for people to kind of discover moments from the show's years past. Yeah, I don't know the TikToks very well, but if they have a lot of SNL sketches, I'll probably visit a lot more. Yeah.Track 4:[41:26] She did another, we talked about the Barbara Walters impression. She did another impression that really stood out to me, but I want to give the floor to you. I want to see if our brains align with maybe the next one that's on your mind. I'm just kind of curious. A little experiment here, Jamie. So what do you got for us next? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, my, this one's probably going to be, I think the only other one I had for a recurring that I definitely wanted to talk about was Zimmerman's. Okay. I don't think that's what yours is, because you were saying yours is an impression, right? Yeah, exactly. But I want to hear your thoughts on the Zimmerman's, though. Oh, I mean, the Zimmerman's, gosh, so, so fun. So we have her and Chris Kattan as this like super always breaking out into very inappropriate over-the-top sexual moments and just like can't keep their hands off of each other and, these are just so funny to me like going from the like sexually charged madness to nothingness and to often like blaming the other person in the room like the other couple or whoever else is around in the sketch for like, oh, you guys are inappropriate, or oh, how dare you, like, I feel like that, that in some cases was like the, the conclusion, but the...Track 4:[42:46] Just these moments of like kind of like one upmanship of the just how over the top like sexual energy how much they can bring to the table was just so genius so fun to watch and to re-watch like i feel like if folks haven't revisited these in a while they to me really hold up in terms of the the physical comedy and like just some of the moments and just how some stuff that i'm actually like okay you got that on on tv i know obviously it's late at night and that's the business of snl but um yeah some pretty like vulgar stuff i feel like they got in there which which was fun they did i know it was pretty risque and chris katan's a cast member who i've had a mixed kind of relationship as a viewer with i wasn't always the biggest chris katan fan but i think sherry brought some good parts of chris katan out in these sketches they have a a similar energy so i can see how their kind of energies play off each other well even though i think i really think sherry's a much better sketch performer than chris katan had better snl career but i think she brought out the good parts of chris katan yeah in these that's why i do like watching these agreed yeah i feel like that was a pairing that i enjoyed.Track 4:[43:58] Seeing and i have a similar kind of thing with chris katan of like different doses or different moments is like the right amount for me but i do feel like there's a little bit of a a parallel to me i do hear them sometimes get talked about in like similar conversations and just as some parallels i think with with the roles they played um and just their like relationship with the show itself but this one to me is just like taking those parallels and.Track 4:[44:29] Like putting it to good use because there could be a world where and sometimes this did happen like both of them was too much for one sketch but this is like you're pairing them romantically and like telling them to just go all at it and have fun with it and it it works yeah no i completely agree this is worth a deep dive for a lot of snl fans this is fun a fun revisit and it captures the era a lot because we were talking about like goofball sketches coming off the heels of of not so goofball maybe more mean stuff like yeah so this is like a good example of kind of that goofball energy she did an impression that.Track 4:[45:05] Judge judy oh yeah yeah i really really love she played judge judy like perfectly no nonsense tough lady um fun interplay between her and tracy morgan as the bailiff uh so i really enjoyed her judge duty judy i thought it did great justice to the real judge judy hey hey hey hey look at me look at me i'll take a pig to the butcher when i want to eat baloney. Got it? Hey, got me? Hot judge, cold cuts. All right, Miss Diamond, what sort of training do you have? What's your background as a clown? I never took no courses, but my mother really encouraged me. Whenever the circus came to town, she would drop me off and leave me there for a few days.Track 4:[45:49] Did your mother teach you how to make those disgusting animal balloons? No, they are my own design, tight ass. Hey, hey, hey, hey. Hey i'm the only tight ass in this courtroom it's right here right here okay yeah i gotta go back in and watch because that's what i i didn't watch for my my rewatch here but i remember yeah from from years past so um yeah if that one is available easily i'll i'll revisit that one again i think that a lot of them are on tiktok so like just the little beats like she came up with little sayings that were funny she would say things like i'll take a pig to the butcher or when I want to eat bologna or I'll grind the organ when I want the monkey to dance and just like these little Judge Judy-isms. Judge Judy actually came on as herself one time and I thought that was pretty fun. Like sometimes I'm hit or miss on like when the actual person comes on. But I think Sherry...Track 4:[46:43] Sherry reacted pretty funny to the real Judge Judy. And she kind of interjected sometimes. And Judge Judy would tell her to go away. And so I thought that was fun. So I think Judge Judy, she did about five of them. I think so. So I think it's worth a revisit for Sherry O'Terry. Another really good impression, I think, Judge Judy. So Jamie, post-SNL, Sherry O'Terry. So not a ton. So she did guest appearances here and there. She was in Shrek the Third, Grown Ups 2. who I'm a big Curb Your Enthusiasm fan, so she was in a memorable episode of Curb for me. A lot of voice acting for animated shows. She was in Scary Movie, the first one, but she never found a project to lead. So do you think it was like a missed opportunity by studios or did something about her style not translate post-SNL? Yeah, it's an interesting one. I feel like her comedy on the show was very much going all in on these zany wacky characters and I could see that leading to a situation of how do we actually take this and put this in more of a film or TV, outside of sketch comedy role I think that, is part of it I know she's talked a little bit about how she.Track 4:[48:02] On SNL it was about comedy first as opposed to like acting outside of sketch comedy and how people have a tendency to kind of like then put you in that lane and i i think that that may be part of it she's someone who like when she does pop up though i always really enjoy seeing her and like curb is a perfect example she's great on that um she had a guest star yeah exactly yeah she popped in on crazy ex-girlfriend which is one of my my favorite shows like was was happy to see her there um so I I'm okay with that and I don't know what like her goals are like what she wants or wanted from her career but I am okay that some cast members aren't like.Track 4:[48:51] Blockbuster every month kind of vibe that that's not the direction their career took like i.Track 4:[48:58] Like seeing her when she has pop up i hope we continue to see those little bits and pieces and i do love her in the comedy roles and and i don't know if that's again what she wants or if she's wanting to was wanting to expand beyond that but i'm happy having her pop up in some of these great shows from time to time no i completely agree like they're not all going to be will ferrell and just take the like be a blockbuster movie star it's not gonna happen with every uh cast member so i'm completely with you i think the thing that maybe is more unfortunate that's impacted her legacy on snl amongst fans is i don't think she's come back to snl yeah like really at all since she left the show in 2000 and i think that kind of sucks jamie i think that's unfortunate i don't know particular reasons why i've kind of heard maybe some stuff But I don't know about you, but I think we're missing out on like Sherry O'Terry not coming back to the show. Agreed. I feel like she's less integrated to like the click of SNL where you see, okay, this person has a show. They're going to bring in all their SNL friends. And you just see this kind of world.Track 4:[50:05] And there can be many reasons for that. Again, I know there are like different theories of like, oh, she was tough to work with or this and that. And, like, I personally have kind of tried to give her the benefit of the doubt among that kind of discourse just because I don't know what happens. I haven't – nothing that's been horrible where I'm like, oh, my gosh, we cannot talk about this person in the history of SNL. I feel like she is somebody who –.Track 4:[50:34] Again, is not super connected with, like, some of the other folks in the show, and I don't know why, and I don't even know that, like, I could. There may be valid reasons for that. There may be invalid reasons. I don't know. I guess what I will say is, like, it's a bummer in the sense of, like, I would love to see her come and host, and she would be a phenomenal host.Track 4:[50:54] So if those circumstances change and she does become more integrated and we get to see more of her in that context that would be an amazing bonus but also if it's a situation where she did her time and that was a period in her life and now she's doing other things i'm okay with that too but yeah yeah the more sherry the better yeah right i know and i don't want to it's hard to speak to like the dynamics between her and her cast members because we weren't there we don't know one thing that she has said though she said she was nervous a lot around the office and she said she would get really nervous before sketches she was nervous during the week so she said she was like this ball of nerves yeah when she was at snl she craved the approval from lorn she really did she she told a story about how norm had to kind of talk her down before a sketch or something like like she just was always just this ball of nerves and maybe she was so nervous that like it kind of prevented her from forging those tight bonds and because i would love like we see dratch come back we see molly shannon we you know sherry o'terry was such a significant arguably bigger than like a dratch or somebody like that but i mean do you think like her not coming back has hurt her legacy a little bit i think it it makes her maybe less known or less talked about in like the fabric of the history of the show to me it doesn't change the like legacy of of what she did for the years and the seasons that she was on the show and doesn't diminish the work.Track 4:[52:23] It maybe contributes to this kind of underrated vibe that comes across because I feel like.Track 4:[52:31] As a result of not being in some of those places, she does get talked about less. And so then when she is talked about, it's like, oh, wait, don't forget about Sherry. She was amazing, too, and also part of redefining this era. So I think that's where I see the connection. Yeah, I'm with that. I think our discussion here hopefully has caused people to go back and remember and just kind of say, like, oh, yeah, Sherry Oteri, she actually was that great. So hopefully this can go towards serving that. So now's the time, part of the show, where you kind of speak to the voters, you speak to the audience, you're speaking to the water cooler.Track 4:[53:08] And, I don't know, Jamie, tell them, why should SNL fans still hold Sherry in high regard as a great cast member? Absolutely, yeah. So Sherry was part of this crucial era of redefining SNL, saving SNL, really showing folks a new way that SNL can be funny. I feel like she was a trailblazer for female comedians on the show. I feel like she paved the way for a lot of the greats that we saw in years to come alongside her cast. I feel like the timing that she had, her ability to excel and really own these character-based sketches was phenomenal. She had this incredible ability to do over-the-top, crazy, fun characters so well, which were so important to that era of the show and what it was all about. Out and I think she really deserves her credit and and props for for that role that she played so I absolutely think that Sherry should be remembered as one of the greats and for playing a critical role in in SNL's history.Track 2:[54:37] So there's that thank you so much thomas and welcome back jamie burwood really great to hear your voice extolling the virtues of sherry o terry i gotta tell you when thomas started to talk about impressions that Sherry O'Terry was part of. And he mentioned Barbara Walters. I was immediately taken back. And I just think that character really exemplifies a lot of what she was capable of and able to do. It's silly, but it's on the mark. And it's a lot of fun. Let's take a listen.Track 5:[55:40] Good morning, I'm Meredith Vieira, and welcome to The View. We've got a fabulous show today, right ladies? Oh, we certainly do, Meredith. We certainly do. Okay, let's take a look at the news. Paula Jones went face-to-face with President Clinton today. He gave his deposition regarding her sexual harassment suit. Now, Star, you're a lawyer. Yes, I am. Now, President Clinton allegedly exposed himself to Ms. Jones and allegedly asked for sex and allegedly Ms. Jones said no, which disappointed the president, allegedly. You know, I was paired with Paula Jones in a three-legged race at Larry King's Fourth of July barbecue bash. And she assured me that President Clinton's member had more twists and turns than the curly fries at Arby's. It's true. Well, I just don't understand what the big deal is. I mean, if a guy whips it out, you just have to be assertive and say, like, hey, don't whip it out, you know?Track 5:[56:41] You're very young, Debbie. Very, very young. All right, this next story is amazing. Chicago physicist Richard Seed wants to open a clinic that would clone human babies. Amazing, right? Now, allegedly, he's going to clone a baby by the year 2000, and what this means is that he's going to take a baby and using signs, he'll make an identical baby to that baby really, really soon. Mm-hmm. You know, there are three people that I would clone. Albert Einstein, Diana, Princess of Where's, and Hugh Downs, my co-host this week on 2020. Well, if I had a clone, I'd make out with myself.Track 5:[57:31] I'm just kidding. Do not speak again. Our guest today is a big star. She is one of the big actresses in the world, allegedly. Please welcome my girl, Glenn Close. Hey!Track 5:[57:58] You are strong and inspirational, and you are one of the whitest women I've ever seen.Track 5:[58:06] I'm delighted to be here. Glenn, you have done so much. Acted in award-winning films. Performed on Broadway. Only one question remains. What do you think of me? Well, Barbara, I admire you tremendously. I've always thought that you would... Oh, you know what I have to ask you about? I want to ask you about that scene in the big chair where you let your husband get that other lady pregnant. Mm, I could not do that. Because I am a do-right woman, and I have to have me a do-right man. Yes. We know that about you, Star. That's done in a nutshell. That's done in a nutshell. Oh, Glenn, I have a question about John Malkovich. What's that? He is so sexy. Ugh. Oh. What's the question? Oh, speaking of questions, it's time for the question of the day. Okay. Today's question comes from Marlene Kimball of Tulsa, Oklahoma. And, Glenn, this question should be really good for you. If you could change one thing about your face, what would it be? Well, nothing. This face has served me very well. Well, I think women need to embrace the uniqueness of their flaws. Wouldn't you all agree?Track 5:[59:31] I don't go in for plastic surgery. If I could change one thing about my face, which is allegedly very big, I would tell those doctors to suck some of this fat out of my neck.Track 5:[59:42] Well, thank you, Glenn, for coming by. That's it? Oh, my God. You know what I just realized? You're the mean lady from 101 Dalmatians. Cruella de Vil. Yeah, now I know who you are. You're evil. Stand over there! Go! Stand over there! Quicker! Stick around. In our next segment, we'll be talking about female circumcision with Naomi Judge.Track 2:[1:00:11] Oh, man. Yeah, that brings back some memories. That's like the original View cast that they were parodying there. And allegedly, I will say, Sherry O'Terry has a path to the SNL Hall of Fame. I believe it. Not a first ballot Hall of Famer, I don't think. We'll get more on the water cooler this week and see what Joe and Shari have to say.Track 2:[1:00:41] Next week, we are discussing Garrett Morris with our friend Darren Patterson, and it should be another great, great episode for you all. Now, that's what I've got for you this week. So, if you would do me a favor, and as you're leaving and walk past the Weekend Update exhibit, turn out the lights, because the SNL Hall of Fame is now closed.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/snlhof/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Kildare woman Paula Jones joined Oliver to tell him all about her huge pinch me moment being brought up on stage by her idol, Adele.

Paula Jones, a trust and estate attorney, discusses the complexities of estate planning and taxation for U.S. citizens with international assets or family members abroad. She highlights the U.S. system of taxing worldwide income and assets, in contrast to other countries' residency-based taxation. Paula also talks about other subjects she specializes in - gifting to foreign beneficiaries, managing dual jurisdiction tax laws, and considerations for U.S. citizens living or retiring abroad. The importance of coordinated legal counsel across different countries to navigate these issues efficiently is emphasized. Tune it to the new episode of Financially Ever After Widowhood podcast, where host Stacy Francis and guest Paula Jones, unravel the subtleties of tax systems worldwide. The U.S. taxation system requires citizens to report and pay taxes on their worldwide income and assets, regardless of their residency status. Estate planning becomes more complex for individuals with international assets or foreign family members due to varying laws and regulations across countries. When gifting assets to non-U.S. citizens, it's crucial to understand the tax implications and regulations that affect such transfers. Navigating dual jurisdiction tax laws is essential for U.S. citizens with international ties, as they must comply with tax regulations in multiple countries. U.S. citizens living abroad need to be aware of key financial and legal considerations, including tax obligations and estate planning while residing or retiring outside the U.S. Trusts and estate planning tools can be used to effectively manage and protect assets across borders, providing solutions for international asset management. Coordinating legal counsel across different countries is vital for handling complex estate and tax issues effectively. International tax treaties play a significant role in reducing double taxation and simplifying cross-border estate planning. Ensuring compliance with both U.S. and foreign tax regulations is essential to avoid legal complications and financial penalties. Seeking expert advice is crucial for navigating the complexities of international estate planning and taxation successfully.

Episode Summary: In this episode, host AB Ridgeway delves into the comparisons between the hush money trial involving former President Donald Trump and the past incidents of high-profile litigation, particularly that of former President Bill Clinton. He navigates through the complexities of the legal cases, highlighting key differences and addressing misconceptions perpetuated by social media and the press. AB encourages listeners to engage critically with the information presented and offers a perspective grounded in faith and moral principles.Key Takeaways:Legal Distinctions: While there are parallels drawn between Trump's hush money trial and Clinton's past settlements, it's crucial to understand the legal nuances. Clinton's payment to Paula Jones settled a civil lawsuit and was public and legal, whereas Trump's case involves felony charges and allegations of campaign finance violations.Media Narratives: AB highlights the role of the media in shaping public perception and emphasizes the importance of discerning factual reporting from sensationalism. Social media users often spread inaccurate comparisons, contributing to misconceptions surrounding the cases.Moral Reflection: Drawing from scripture, AB underscores the significance of personal accountability and moral integrity. He urges listeners to reflect on the implications of immorality, emphasizing the importance of seeking forgiveness and moving forward with integrity.The Power of Money: Despite the allure of financial solutions, AB warns against the illusion that money can solve moral dilemmas. Both cases exemplify how unresolved issues of immorality can resurface, irrespective of financial settlements.Faith and Forgiveness: AB encourages listeners to prioritize spiritual growth and forgiveness, emphasizing the transformative power of faith in navigating life's challenges. He reminds listeners of the universal need for forgiveness and redemption in the journey towards spiritual fulfillment.Quotes:"Money can only get you so far, and we've noticed that. People think with money problems will go away, but as we see here even with a million dollars, $130,000, the problems of immorality and not settling with your sin can come back to haunt you for a year, four years, or even 25 years.""For both of these individuals, I hope that they have scripture close to them. I hope that this is a lesson for my listeners that listen, you need to control your sexual immorality because you don't want these things to catch up to you 20 years later, 25 years later.""We've all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. I'm sure everyone makes mistakes in one form or another but what we need to do is forgive ourselves, allow God to forgive us, move forward and don't try to cover things up with money."

Hello. How are you? How are you hanging in there? I hope you're doing okay. I'm doing semi okay. It's been a lot inundation with this very real, very damaging type of abuse. One thing that you may or may not know is folks who have experienced spiritual abuse and folks who have experienced sexual abuse.They're very similar to each other. Spiritual abuse and sexual abuse are very, very similar. The impact is very, very similar because it is so, so vulnerable. You are so vulnerable when this happens and it violates our intimacy and it violates our very souls in a way that maybe other abuse doesn't. So if you are traumatized.By the abuse that you experienced in a church [00:01:00] or a high control environment or religious environments in your family. There's a reason for that. It makes a lot of sense. It's very, very serious trauma. So one of the things that we discussed in this episode is how the folks who. experience sexual abuse when they go to the religious institution where they experience that abuse and say, Hey, help me, this happened, this was awful, please help me.When they get dismissed or falsely accused or sidelined or silenced, that that is sometimes worse than the sexual abuse that they experienced in that institution. This episode is with Marie Griffith. She is the author of Moral Combat, How Sex Divided America and Fractured American Politics. It's an intense book.A lot of research went into this book. She's also a scholar [00:02:00] and a professor of religion at Washington University. And one of the things we will also discuss in this episode is how she literally taught a class on abuse in the church in a secular university. What? Crazy, crazy, crazy. Great conversation, lots of mind blowing moments about the connection between sex and sexual abuse and the rampant abuse that is happening in the evangelical church right now.Enjoy, or don't enjoy, but take it in for sure. And as always, take care of yourself, get some rest, give yourself some time after this episode to go for a walk, take a sip of water, breathe. You're okay, wherever you are, you are okay, take a deep breath, you are safe, you are here, you are now, you are present, you're going to be okay.[00:03:00] Here is my interview with Marie Griffith. Katherine: Hi, Catherine. Oh, how are you? How are you? And I have your big book here. This was a lot of work. She took this.Marie: And that was like I don't even want to tell you how many years. I mean, it was really sort of 15 years. I did other things as I was doing that, Katherine: but yeah. Yeah, just like the amount of research that went into just like one chapter I was like, this was a very large endeavor. But how are you this morning? How are you doing? How is your writing? Is it like a writing sabbatical? Is that kind of what this season is called?Marie: Yeah, I'm on, I'm on research leave. You know, it's just a standard leave that scholars get every few years. So but yeah, it's focused on working on this book about sexual clergy, sexual Katherine: abuse. Oh, my gosh. Did I know that? Did you tell me about that? I don't know if I knew from Marie: that [00:04:00] I had taught that course on the abuse crisis in modern Christianity.And so the reason I taught the course was because I started doing research on clergy sexual abuse in both the U. S. Catholic Church And evangelical groups, particularly the Southern Baptist Convention, although not only Katherine: the Southern. Okay. I don't know if I knew that the book itself was about clergy sexual abuse.So I definitely want to hear so much about that. Really excited to talk to you. I'm just like, as I'm like reading this book, I'm like, okay. We just need to be friends because I like everything that you research and everything that you're, I'm like, it's all like stuff that I'm like thinking about constantly.And then just like even reading your book. And then when Megan told me that she literally had a class on like abuse that is happening in the church, I was like. Wait, who, like, led this? Whose idea was it to have this class? Like, tell me, tell me so much more. And so that's why I was, like, very [00:05:00] interested to talk to you.And so I would just love to hear very just to start how you got into doing what you're doing and how this became important to you. Marie: Sure, sure. Yeah. And thank you so much. I really love your podcast and admire the work that you do too, Catherine. So thank you. Well, I am from Chattanooga, Tennessee originally.I was raised Southern Baptist. I grew up in the 1970s and 1980s. So as you may know, that was a time of just tremendous change in the culture, but also for Southern Baptists in particular, and within evangelical Protestantism more generally. The church I grew up in was a really, I thought of it as just a very kind of, you know, ordinary.Church, it was 1st Baptist Church Chattanooga, you know, the kind of flagship Southern Baptist Church of the city. But the, the kind of tensions in the Southern Baptist Convention. Between, [00:06:00] you know, for shorthand, let's say the fundamentalist and the moderates, because that's, you know, what they called each other, at least at the time was really strong.And my mother was the pastor's secretary over a number of years, and she cared deeply about these issues. My dad was the deacon chair for a number of years. So this was dinner table conversation. What was happening within the denomination and. My parents were both moderates. And so I kind of heard that side of it.And it was really painful. A lot of the pastors that I had that worked at our church felt very betrayed by things that happened, convention politics and all of that. And when I left for college, I thought I left it all behind. I mean, it was really painful enough that I just turned my back on a lot of that.But I found myself studying religion and really sort of wondering how all of that came to be. So in some ways, I mean, I think that has, explains a lot about my career, why I became a [00:07:00] scholar of American religion. I've focused on evangelicals. I focused on women. I focused on debates over women's roles, sexuality, and sex.And now clergy sexual abuse. So it really is. There's a personal story behind that, as I think it is for so many scholars. Katherine: Absolutely. And then have you been able to trace? So you're working on a book right now about clergy sexual abuse. And then your book that I was reading before we interviewed.Moral combat. The subtitle is how sex divided American Christians and fractured American politics. Have you been able to trace? The link from this divide to clergy sexual abuse, is that pretty, a pretty clear link for you? Marie: I think so. And, you know, I, critics may argue with me, and they have every right to argue with me, but what I see from the sources, the [00:08:00] long historical sources that I've looked at over many archives that really begin in the really the late 19th century, but certainly by the 1920s and the birth control movement has been a real power struggle within American Christianity, Catholicism as well as, as, as Protestantism, I should say over leadership, over theology, and maybe more than anything else over the appropriate role of women and, and how to think about gender, how God created men and women.and what their appropriate roles are supposed to be. I think we can see that debate starting with The birth control movement, really going back before that, but my book started with the birth control movement, moving through debates over literary censorship sex education in the public schools, homosexuality, same sex rights, abortion, reproductive rights, sort of all the way through.And so, you know, that's, that's an [00:09:00] oversimplification to some degree, but I do think that those wars over sex. over gender, over, over women and, and women's roles in the public sphere and in the family explain an awful lot of our conflicts culture wars conflicts as they are. And, and I do think that's what's led us to the current moment and the, the real fervor over clergy sexual abuse.Katherine: Yeah, and just all of it packaged together when you, and when you put sex sexual abuse itself, and you, and you realize that sexual abuse itself is really not about sex, it is about power, and you, and you see the power dynamic happening in these debates, and like, it's about who's going to get it. To be in charge, basically and, and then you add that in with this dynamic of sexual abuse happening and like less about just [00:10:00] urges that need to be fulfilled, but more about like who gets to be in charge and who gets to have a say and who gets to decide.It makes so much more sense through that lens than just like. Sex addiction which is what it sometimes gets boiled down to, but it's, but that's, it's way more than that one. It's something this rampant. And so I see the connection. And it's, it's, it's pretty, it's pretty clear to me. But I would love to hear So you taught a class and what was the class called?Can you confirm the name of Marie: that? Sure. Yeah. The class was called the abuse crisis in modern Christianity. Katherine: Okay. And what led you to teaching that class? And then what were, what were the, the, what was the process of getting that class to Marie: be taught? Yeah, yeah, no, and it's maybe my favorite class I've ever taught, so I just want to say that at the outset, which sounds strange [00:11:00] because it was also the most painful class I've ever taught, the most difficult class I've ever taught.You know, you all, this sort of Me Too, Church Too movement that's been so extraordinarily important over the last, seven or eight, 10 years, again, going longer than that, even, but really these this past decade. I have so many undergraduate students who have come to me with stories of sexual assault or sexual abuse, and I realize it's something that college students are grappling with.All the time. But there are, at least in the institutions where I've taught, there are almost no classes, you know, that address that it's it's sort of we're expecting our student life personnel and our R. A. S. And people who aren't even trained in some cases to kind of be the ones to manage. sex on campus or the sexual lives of our students.And so, and as I was doing the research on clergy sexual [00:12:00] abuse and just realizing how rampant some of this has long been and still is, it felt like something that I thought students would take a real interest in. So I taught the course, I put it on the books for fall of 2022. I limited it at first to 15 students and I immediately, when registration opened, it immediately filled up and I had.double that number of students on the wait list. And so I wound up with about30 students that, that were there off all undergrad, except for one graduate student. And that was, that was Megan. Katherine: And then and so you didn't have any trouble like hot, like saying, Hey, I want to offer this class. Was that something that you did you have any hurdles with the institution offering the class?Marie: Well, that's that's a very good question. You're the first person to ask me that. As it happened, I was at the time the director of the Danforth Center on Religion and Politics, which is our unit. And [00:13:00] so I was able to just offer the class and it really didn't go through any kind of Katherine: formal approach.I could do whatever I want. Marie: if I teach the course again, which I definitely plan on doing, it's possible that I would get some pushback. But the course really it was, it got very high course evaluations. I think the students were saying, these are conversations we all need to be having, and we're so thankful to be having it.So I think I would be able to make the argument that this is an important course Katherine: to keep on the books. Absolutely. And then you had, I know that Megan had mentioned I think like a former nun and like a former prosecutor that you had in. Was it more of a like a, a workshop style, lecture style, or was it more like you teaching and then you would occasionally have people come in?Marie: Yeah. Well, the course met twice a week for an hour and 20 minutes, and I did very little lecturing. I mean, I would set out the context, you know, for a short period [00:14:00] at the beginning. But as you say, I brought in a lot of experts. I brought in lawyer, a lawyer who has prosecuted these cases and worked a lot with sexual abuse survivors.I brought in Catholic survivors. I brought in a Catholic survivor who is now working for the Catholic church on prevention programs. You know, and has very much considers himself a devout Catholic still archivist, just a whole range of different types of people. We talked to journalists. I just wanted them to really see Things from a wide range of perspectives.I will say that when I started the course, most of my research until then had focused on the Catholic Church. So it was maybe overly focused on Catholicism. And I wish I had had time to do more. with evangelicals, with Mormons their orthodox Jewish cases and coverups of sexual abuse. Muslim communities in [00:15:00] the U.S. have grappled with this. So, you know, it's almost an overwhelming amount of material and WashU is a very multicultural, multi religious university. So, you know, I think covering these power dynamics, as you say, this is not just about sex, it's really about power and gender. Covering these across different religious traditions, I think is a really important, Katherine: you know, thing to do.Absolutely. And I still think that the Catholic church is the most well known. I was at a, I was at a class. Sunday night and I had your book with me to just like read while when there was like not stuff going on or while I was like waiting for people and and somebody was like, Oh, what's, what's that book about?And so I like, I talked a little bit about the book and then said, I was interviewing someone who taught a class and abuse in the church. And they were like, Oh, like the Catholic church. And I was like, well, I was like actually like I focus on like the evangelical church. And the person that I was talking to you was actually someone who like attends.Church [00:16:00] and and so it was almost like they just like had no idea that that, but that was like happening within the actual like regular everyday evangelical churches, I think a lot of evangelicals will still try to like, think, oh, that's a Catholic church problem and that happened over there in the Catholic Church, when it is.very rampant in the evangelical church across every denomination. Like I haven't, I have not met or encountered the denomination yet. That was like, Oh no, we're good. We don't have that. That doesn't, that doesn't happen. And so I'm really, really grateful that you were teaching that class and just like thinking of the students that got to be in there and be a part of it.And I got to have that conversation. I'm just like. Woo, would I, would I love, you know, I went to seminary and I'm like for grad school and I'm like, would I have loved to have a class like that in seminary? Yes, but they're not going to have that kind of class in seminary. Like critiquing the church that they're like creating ministers for.[00:17:00] And, and someone asked me that the other day of like, did you ever have a class on like abuse in the church? And did anyone ever talk about like clergy abuse or spiritual abuse or anything in seminary? I was like, no. It was like it did not exist. It was like that didn't happen at all. Marie: Well, I think, I think you're absolutely right.I am hopeful. I feel like in a lot of the conversations that I'm having now, and I, you know, I'm doing interviews with survivors, but also with. Pastors with people working for the church, developing curricula and training programs, you know, for pastors in seminary. I mean, I actually feel some hope that there's so much energy around bringing some of that knowledge into the seminary classroom requiring.No, in some way, either at the local church level or at seminary. Now it's difficult because as you know, church autonomy is a hugely important principle for groups like Baptists [00:18:00] and other, a lot of other evangelical groups. And so requiring a church. To have a training or requiring certain courses, even in seminary is it's it's hard.And I think a lot of these denominations right now are debating this issue. But still, I think people realize more and more. I mean, the Southern Davis Convention has had Terrible PR over the last several years around its own cover ups of sexual abuse. It's starting to look as bad as the Catholic Church's cover up, right?And so I think Southern Baptist leaders I've talked to, they know they've got to do something. And not just for optics, they've really got to do something, you know big to, to bring knowledge to this issue. So I am hopeful that some of that, what you didn't have in seminary You know, the next generation is going to have some version of Katherine: it, at least.Absolutely. Yeah. Cause I just, I mean, you can't ignore it at this point. It's, it's everywhere. It is everywhere. What was the response? [00:19:00] So you said that you got a really good response from your students in terms of just like evaluations at the end. What was some of like the personal response of students within the class?Marie: Yeah, and I want to say, you know, I gave a lot of trigger warnings at the outset. In the course description, I said, if this is a personal issue for you, Really think hard before you take this class, but come talk to me and I can help you find resources if you want to find resources, but I warned people we're going to read graphic, you know, accounts of sexual abuse.It's hard, even for those of us who are not survivors and I do not consider myself a survivor. It's still it's grueling. It's wrenching it. Keeps you up at night when you read the stuff. So I, I really warned students and I warned them on the first day of class and, and all of that nonetheless, you know, kind of midway through, I knew that I had three or four students who were struggling they [00:20:00] were not getting their work in, you know, I reached out to them and they admitted to me, like this was bringing stuff up for them.So I found myself just saying, don't worry about deadlines. Like take care of yourself, you know, and I told students in class if you need to take a break when we're in class, you know, I've never said this in any other class, but I'm going to tell you now you can walk out and walk around and get a drink of water and come back when you can.And I'm not going to penalize you for that. I, you know, your mental health. is most important here and come talk to me. So students expressed appreciation, you know, in their evaluations that I had been flexible about that as I think anyone should be. One suggestion they did have for me about changing in the future is that my very first minister probably should have been a counselor, probably should have been someone who could come in and talk about trauma and not just the trauma that abuse survivors that we're reading about have suffered, but trauma that you might feel.You know, absorbing [00:21:00] these stories. And so I take that to heart. And I think when I teach the class again, I teach the class again that I'm going to do that first and make sure that I've got better supports set up for students. If, if the, the sort of secondary trauma or tertiary trauma of reading and absorbing all of this gets Katherine: to be too much.Absolutely, absolutely. Yeah, I can imagine that that would be, that would be. A great idea. To start it out that way. What were some of the people that you brought in, was there someone that like really stood out to you that a story that they told really resonated with you? Marie: Yeah. Well, you know, they, they all stand out for me, but I'll just tell a couple of stories that I think the students found particularly meaningful. And I should say again, to go back to the personal and the student said, it wasn't just hard for them. You know, they loved the class.They loved getting to think about this and process this. And I think they all. felt that this would really shape them going forward. Help [00:22:00] them be better friends and, and helpers of other people who've gone through trauma. You know, I think for a lot of us who aren't survivors, we don't realize how deep the trauma goes until you read and learn.You've got to be educated about that. And I think these guests really helped do that. So I had guests two of the guests have been. Leaders in an organization called snap the survivors network of those abused by priests, which was founded primarily as a Catholic organization for Catholic survivors of clergy abuse, and they really went back into first kind of realizing that the abuse that they had experienced, trying to tell going to church authorities and having in their cases door slammed against them over and over again.And that the trauma of that was worse than the original sexual abuse itself. Right. I'm sure you hear this over and over again. Very Katherine: common. Very common. [00:23:00] Marie: And I think for students to hear their story, but also, you know, they helped create SNAP. They've been public spokespeople across the country. They have helped so many people, so many victims.And, you know, I think educated so many of us who are not victims. about this, that the students found them really inspiring. That was, that was really great. And David Clossie, who was the longtime leader of the SNAP, I'm just lucky because he lives here in St. Louis. And so he was able to visit our class in person along with Barb Doris who was also a SNAP leader, but he's a very emotional person still.And he cries a lot and he'll tell you that. So he'll tell stories and he is, his emotions are right there. But he has also processed it. He has sort of come out on top of it and he's just a really inspiring figure. So students really loved hearing from him. Another standout, I'll just mention just one more.We had a local lawyer and I won't mention her [00:24:00] name because she's really had a tough time. She has worked on a lot of different clergy, sexual abuse cases in the states of Illinois and Missouri primarily, and the laws here. are really, really tough. I would say they are stacked against victims in a lot of very concrete ways.And she talked to us about that and really educated us about the law. And it got so bad for her that after 25, 30 years or so of practicing and working in that area, she just was burned out. She realized that she She could even be a suicide risk after all that she had to leave. And so she went and is now in a completely different field of law.And the students were really, I think, moved by her. Some of my students want to go to law school. They want to work in that area, but they also recognized, you know, what she had to say about the toll that this can take on people. Who really try to find justice for survivors, because it's a lot [00:25:00] harder in some states than others, but it's hard everywhere.Yeah. Katherine: You know? Yeah. It's just, yeah. It really, the justice system doesn't work in favor of of someone coming forward and saying, this happened. Especially if there's, if there's not like, Capturing physical evidence of something like that is just not easy. If it if it even is possible. Yeah, that is, that is really really incredible.Did you have anything else to say about the class and then I would love to just talk a little bit about book. Marie: . No, I would just say that I would encourage if anybody is interested in thinking about teaching a class like this for undergrads, for grad students, seminary students, feel free to contact me, rmg567 at gmail.com. And also I'll just say, I'm still, you know, interviewing survivors and people and would love to hear from folks, but I would just really encourage people to consider doing it. I think. Think it's a very, I, I'm so glad that I was able to do it, [00:26:00] and I will keep teaching that class until I can't teach anymore in retirement.Katherine: Oh, I'm so glad. I'm really, really glad that there are dozens and dozens of more students who are going to get that class so I'm really glad to hear that. So switching to talking about this book, Moral Combat that I mentioned.Earlier, the subtitle has sex divided American Christians and fractured American politics. And then I want to hear about a little more about the current book that you're working on as well. But my main question about this book is why sex? Why is sex such a big deal? What is it about sex that is making it this thing that divides people?Marie: Catherine, that is the question. That is absolutely the question. That's really the question that sent me on the journey to write this. And I don't know if even now I have an answer to it. And really, I came to it thinking like, you know, sex is not a big [00:27:00] topic in the New Testament. It's really not compared to caring for the poor.Caring for the poor, caring for people, helping the world, helping those in need, visiting the prisoner, feeding the hungry. Those are the themes, right? Those are the crucial, crucial themes. They're not the only themes, but that, to me, is so obviously the core that Jesus taught, that that should be the obsession.And it's not. It's, it's not, it's not to say churches don't care about those things, of course they do. Catholic, Protestant, they all care about those things, but the thing that has seemed to be the obsession is around disciplining people for their sexual behavior. And that just struck me and, and it was true in my Southern Baptist upbringing.I mean, that was just like, you know, a very strong theme in life generally. So I think I've always wondered. Why is something like [00:28:00] that so important? And you know, it's partly, I mean, our sexuality goes to the core of who we are, right? In every aspect of our lives. And if we wanna discipline people into being certain kinds of people, that's sort of a really key area.You know, that, that the rules need to be sort of upheld and abided by. But to me, I honestly feel and I know a lot of folks would disagree with me on this, but I think a lot of Christian leaders have really gone way beyond anything, you know, biblical to create systems and structures and rules. That, that weren't really of, of great interest or concern to Jesus or to to any of these early teachers.The early church fathers, you know, once Jesus is dead and Paul's dead and the kind of church is sort of coming into being in the early centuries, those leaders carried up, cared a lot about sex and disciplining the flesh and celibacy of [00:29:00] course, and, and thought the body was evil and thought sexuality was sort of this evil demonic force.That's kind of where a lot of this influence comes from. If, if you, if you're more interested in going back to a biblical view of Christianity, I just think a lot has been invented, has been weaponized, has been interpreted a specific way to make sex more important than it, than it really ought to be for, for Christian for Christians generally.Would Katherine: you say if... If it's about power, let's just theorize that it's about power. Is there a possibility that sex is just an easy thing to control? And it's more just like open and, you know, like, you can hide it but like something like, attracted to the same sex and you want to have that kind of relationship or, or like that physical act of Being with someone and having [00:30:00] intercourse and like, like those are just like physical things and it's just like an easier thing to control and because it's more like out there could that be a reason why this is the thing if it's about power?I don't know.Marie: No, I think that's definitely part of it. And of course, sex is tied to reproduction, too, right? So it's not just about sexual behavior. It's about, you know, women bearing children and whose children will they be bearing. So, you know, we know that in cultures all across time and place that we've been able to study, sex is also very important in societies.It's not just Christians who have made sex important. So I want to be clear about that. And part of that is because it is still, in many cases, about power. Men want to know that the children their wives are bearing are their children. Like, that's, that's one thing that anthropologists have, have a lot of times talked about.Kinship relations and, you know, these kinds of things. So, sex has been important in part because it is... [00:31:00] deeply tied up in in reproduction. And, and I think our reproductive politics today, a lot of the, you know, the, the refusal to see that the way to reduce the abortion rate is to make contraception more available to prevent problem pregnancies and unwanted pregnancies.But you don't see this huge push on the part of Christians, mostly. To provide free birth control and to make sure that there's sex education in the public schools of a certain kind, those issues often, you know, are still kind of, you know, forbidden and go with anti abortion politics. So I think the reproduction part is really a key part of this, but, but yes, I think it is also about power and.restricting women's movements, restricting you know, this huge portion of their lives and, and, and making a certain model of marriage, you know, seem like the norm, seem like the God ordained norm. There's one norm for marriage and, and that's [00:32:00] it. And you know, really, I think there's had to be a lot of.Inventiveness to make that seem like, you know, something that God so deeply cared about right, Katherine: right, right. So would you say that aside from it being a sex thing, that it really is a gendered thing? I know you had mentioned that earlier and like more about dare we say it's control of women and it's not just about.celibacy and like purity. It's really about the purity of women. Oh Marie: yeah. I, I, I think the sources bear that out very, very clearly that the, you know, the, the sort of purity obsession has always been the purity of women. It's not to say men's purity hasn't been talked about and emphasized to a degree, but men have been far less punished for sex outside of marriage and sometimes not punished at all compared to the, the sort of discipline.of women for, for, for that. So [00:33:00] I think it's very much about gender. The book, Moral Combat, you may remember, you know, I start the book with the suffrage movement, the women's suffrage movement, because that, to me, in some ways, is, is one of the, the kind of, of the core culture war issue we we almost think now so women got the right to vote in 1920, of course, and we kind of think of that as like, Okay, well, that happened and then everything you know, everybody accepted that.But in fact, there was so much energy against allowing women to vote, you know, it was very close that the, you know, the states had to ratify, you know, this amendment Tennessee my home state was the final one to ratify it. I'm proud to say. My grandmother was a suffragist who, who marched for that, but it wasn't easy.And the animus against women voting or women having something like equal rights, at least in that one sphere, you know, that animus didn't go away. And so I think a lot of what [00:34:00] you see in these later movements against birth control. Against homosexuality, against sex education, against reproductive rights.The roots are there in the anti suffrage movement. So it's very much about women, about a desire for women to stay in their place. And let me say clearly, it's not just men who have wanted that. I don't write this as a men against women yeah.just as many women are invested in that kind of patriarchal hierarchical system because they benefit from it in some way economically, socially. And so patriarchy, or I want to say misogyny, these are systems held up, I think equally by men and women in many, many cases. And and that's a crucial part of the story that we also sometimes I think tend to forget.Katherine: Yeah. And I think it's a, it's harder. , I would just say from just like [00:35:00] purely from a personal personal perspective to see women fighting so hard for these things. And when I see women upholding it and defending it just it feels very different and it lands very different than like a man.Upholding it and and defending it as well. But it's also true. It's also very, very true. And, and I, and I learned that very quickly working in and very patriarchal spaces that just because there was a woman in the room didn't make it safer and didn't necessarily mean that women were actually respected in that space., and yeah, absolutely. And then I don't remember the name of the person, but the person that was fighting for Susan's Someone maybe fighting for contraception and like the main argument was that it was gonna allow women to be loose and, and have sex with anyone they wanted. And, and she was just like, give us a, give us a break.Maybe we just like, just want to have freedom. Maybe that, [00:36:00] maybe that's what it, maybe it has nothing to do with promiscuity and just like, just like that being the argument, like, and that is. It's still the argument and that's why I like the church isn't, you know, pushing contraception and making contraception available as a, as a potential solution to mitigating abortion is because it's, it's that same thing, like present day, that same argument is just going to give them license.Yet we're not talking about that for men, like men who don't have to most of the time. deal with a fear of getting pregnant. Like that's not something that men have to carry. So we're not worried about them. We're not worried about it in that, in that context. And so, oh my gosh, there's so many, so many things.Is there anything else you want to say about that? And then I'd, I'd love to hear about your, your latest that you're working on now. Marie: Sure. I think you're right. I mean, just. stress. I think what [00:37:00] you're saying is we're still having the same debates that we were having in the 1920s.It's a maybe a modernized version of it. But I do think our contemporary debates over abortion and and even to some degree, sexual abuse, sexual harassment, you know, I write about Anita Hill and Clarence Thomas and also about Paula Jones and Bill Clinton, the kind of sexual harassment wars of the 1990s, some of which has been a little bit Thank forgotten.Those were really critical to because it was about how are women treated in the workplace and what is okay and what is not okay. And it's shocking to think what we used to tolerate. You know what? I mean, my mother, who's now in her eighties, she'll tell me what she tolerated as a secretary, you know, in the 19 sixties and seventies and in the church.Well, yes, in the church and outside the church, both the kind of soft sexism that we all accepted. Not so soft sometimes. So anyway, I would just say that I do think we learn a lot from history [00:38:00] and that reading up on these earlier debates, I think really sheds important light. On the kinds of arguments that we're still having now, both within the church and within our larger culture.Yeah, Katherine: and then just like the context of history about just like history just like repeats itself and then repeats itself and repeats itself and, and it's typically about one group of people or one set of people wanting to be in charge, and in America, it's about like the religious right. It seems wielding Christianity and this war for morality as the way to have power and be in charge and just even just thinking about like very recent election and political figures who, who didn't give a shit about, actual Christianity.They just got people. You know, whipped up into a frenzy and made them fearful of, , the trans, the trans [00:39:00] agenda, the figurative trans agenda. And before that it was the gay agenda, and then the feminists, and the feminists are after your children, and and then, and then now, like, making abortion the thing and it's about, like, saving children, but it's not about saving children, it's about this, like, control thing and so that to me is, I mean, just intersects with my work, and is, is pretty scary to me that this, And there was kind of just this out of body experience a little bit just like reading the book and thinking about that and then I'll have those moments at times of like, this was the sect, and I came from a very fundamentalist world that was, was very militant in fighting abortion and getting, you know, Christian people that they claimed were Christians into politics and fighting, against like sex, sex education in school because it would just give people license to promiscuity.They were very, very militant and it's just a very out of body experience to think like that was a sect that I used to be a part of. And I believed they were good people, and [00:40:00] some of them are very good people and, and that the outside world was bad, like those, those bad people that are pro abortion or pro, pro same sex marriage, and to think just like how militant it was.Now, like looking back on it and just like how just active it was and genuinely good people within it. Absolutely. 100 percent at the same time, people who are just wielding this for power and, and wanting to like claim all of this power in the name of Jesus. And it's, it's scary. It's, it's real.Marie: I would just say I, yeah, that is, that's it's so true. I, I see it as a true tragedy that Christianity has been so weaponized in this country and elsewhere, not just in the U. S. And all the time and energy and money that has gone into some issues at the [00:41:00] expense to, in my mind.Of the poor and the suffering and other, you know, really critical issues and how blase we are about economic inequality in this country and, and the state of the poor and suffering of many kinds. To me, it's a tragedy, you know that that we allowed ourselves to get so hung up on particular issues, and have just been almost blinded.To what I see is really the core message, Katherine: In the Bible. How does that. Message tie in with what you're working on right now. Marie: Yeah. Well, it's you know So now this is a hard it's a it's an even more grueling Project as you can imagine because a lot of my sources now are interviews And I really spent a few years now and i'm really in the thick of it now that i'm on leave Interviewing, you know, survivors mostly, but also family members, pastors, you know, people, as I said earlier, just like [00:42:00] my class, different visitors coming from different places, but the vast majority are survivors, survivors of childhood sexual abuse, of abuse when they were teenagers, and also adults, you know, adults, largely women I've interviewed so far, but of course there are men too, you know, who have been abused as men sexually abused.And abuse happens everywhere. You know, abuse happens absolutely everywhere. The church is not, you know, the only place it happens. But cover ups feel different in different spaces, I think. And the, the degree of the cover up in the church, Is so disillusioning for so many people, the spiritual abuse, the spiritual damage that that has caused people in many ways.That's sort of the big takeaway for me right now is just how profoundly damaging. Sexual abuse is for people when they are not believed, when they are not treated with love and care. [00:43:00] And, when they are prevented from seeking justice, it's crazy making. I mean, people can just go absolutely crazy.And the degree, you know, the levels of substance abuse and all kinds of. You know, self destructive behaviors that emerge from that is just stunning. And, we've learned a lot about this since 2002. And that 2002 is an important year because that was when the Boston Globe broke the big stories, the early stories about abuse in the Catholic Church in the, in the archdiocese of Boston.And, you know, that kind of began this trajectory of attention to the abuse crisis, at least within the Catholic Church, and then more recently in Protestant groups, too. But I think we still have no idea the scope, the scale, the damage that has been done and is still being done because of the cover ups, because of bullying by pastors who refuse to acknowledge this problem [00:44:00] and women who enabled them pastors wives or, or church staff or others who just don't want to believe this is true.And so really, enable abusive environments to thrive. It's a hard subject. And, you know, I want to write a book people want to read. So I've got to find a way to be, you know, I want to say Here's what we do, like here's where hope is because otherwise who wants to read a book that's such a downer? But I think we all need to be better educated about the realities out there so that we can be equipped to know what to do about them.Katherine: Mm hmm. Is there any Distinction made or is this part of the scope of the book where you're outlining just the difference between someone who experiences that sexual abuse and cover up within a spiritual context versus. Or, you know, Hollywood, is there a distinction made at all?Marie: Yeah. And, you know, a lot of the guests who came to my class, we asked them this and I asked [00:45:00] survivors this, I think so because so let me separate out Catholics and Protestants here because one, one big difference between, I think what Catholics are taught about priests and what Protestants are taught about ministers is the sort of stature of the priest.So traditionally Catholics were really taught that priests. It's were of a higher order, almost a human being, they, they had a sacramental status closer to God. They were the closest thing that anyone was going to get to God. And the kind of deference that that created is part of why children felt they couldn't tell if a priest abused them, because it was, this was God.And I think the damage for them, it was as if God Had done the abuse and that's very hard to get over and I've heard this from some Protestants, too I think evangelicals at least for me don't have quite the same, you know, the the pastor is still a human being He's perhaps been called, he's [00:46:00] got a calling.And so there's still, you know, a lot of deference given to him. But I thought when I started this project, okay, there's a difference in how pastors are viewed. But I am coming to realize that in a lot of these evangelical churches, It's pretty close to the same as the Catholics were taught that pastor.He's on a higher level And what he says, people believe there's been a lot of abuse of women working for churches. You probably know if I had a lesson for listeners right now, I would say if any pastor comes to you And asks you to come work for his church A red flag up in your mind because he, if, if the pastor needs a new church staff, they need to open the search.They need to go through HR. They need to have a whole process like companies have, like universities have not, you are being targeted. I think in many, many cases, if someone comes to you and says, Hey, you know, you're doing a great job in the church. Come work for me. I have heard so many [00:47:00] stories from women now.That's where it starts. Or, or maybe she was already being grouped, you know, she's come to the pastor for counseling, she's having difficulty in her marriage or some kind of difficulty with her children. And just, there's a certain kind of pastor who will target the vulnerable in that way.Now, let me say clearly the vast majority of pastors are not abusers, I definitely believe that. But. There, there are a lot more than I think most of us are aware of people or maybe that because once they reach that position of power, they become sort of convinced of their own authority in a way and they become abusive.I don't know the psychology of it. I don't know how all that works. But I think that's really critically important for people to, to recognize. Katherine: Absolutely. Yeah, and I would say like maybe the distinction between like the Catholicism, the elevation of a priest is it's elevated institutionally, whereas, at least what I have seen [00:48:00] when it's a pastor in that place they've sort of put themselves there, and it's not necessarily.Institutionally across the board, that's what the institution is pointing people towards, but they have managed to get into that position and created that for themselves. Marie: That's a very good point. I hadn't thought of that. And I think that's a very good point, but the ones who are best at it, they persuade everyone in the congregation that they deserve to be in that place.Right. But you're right. It's the kind of, the, the charismatic leader, you know, the Ravi Zacharias or, you know, at the local level, whatever, you know, person that is. But you're right. They managed to kind of accrue that charisma and that sense of leadership themselves. Katherine: Yeah, and maybe the institution comes after in terms of picking it up and not addressing it and not feeding into it.Chicken or egg. I don't know which comes first. Well, this has been really great and I'm just, I feel like there's so much more to talk about, [00:49:00] but I will wrap us up there. Is there anything else that you wanted to share as we Wrap up the interview part. Marie: No, I would only ask if anyone listening is interested in talking to me.I really am. I am trying to interview as many people as I can survivors, but also people who want to work for reform in the church and don't know how family members. friends of people that they worry are being abused. Counselors, anyone, if you are interested in speaking with me, my email is open. R. M. G.567 at gmail dot com. And I would welcome correspondence with people. I am willing for anyone who wants to be anonymous, to be anonymous. I'm keeping confidentiality from people. A lot of people have very good reason to be confidential. They have children. Sometimes an abuser is, is someone's spouse or ex spouse, and they really don't want their children to know, right?There's all kinds of reasons. And I'm sensitive to that and we want to protect anyone and not [00:50:00] re traumatize them. But yes, I welcome anyone to contact me who would be Katherine: interested and your timeline for. When they hear this episode versus when your book is coming out. So timing, when is, when are you hoping to finish?Marie: Well, I'm a scholar, not a journalist and scholarship is slow. So this book is going to be, you know, a few years in the making realistically. So it's not like I've got a deadline, you know, of the end of October or something, I I'm on leave all of this year, the 2023, 2024, I could. Here and Katherine: anytime. All right, great.And I will put that information in the show notes so people can easily access and thank you so much for your time and all of the work that you're doing. Marie: Thank you, Catherine, for all the work you do. Yeah, I love your work and you keep at it. Katherine: Thank you.Thank you so much.

Juanita Broaddrick - Bill Clinton & The Clinton FoundationJuly 17Juanita Broaddrick is an American former nursing home administrator. She alleged that she was raped by U.S. President Bill Clinton on April 25, 1978, when he (aged 32) was the Attorney General of Arkansas. Clinton declined to comment on the issue.Rumors had circulated about such an event for years and it had been recorded in a letter prepared by a Republican rival of Clinton's around 1991, but Broaddrick refused to speak to news media until 1999. In a sworn statement in 1997 with the placeholder name "Jane Doe #5", Broaddrick filed an affidavit with Paula Jones's lawyers stating there were unfounded rumors and stories circulating "that Mr. Clinton had made unwelcome sexual advances toward me in the late seventies. ... These allegations are untrue". She then recanted that statement to investigators of potential misconduct by Clinton led by Kenneth Starr, while insisting at the time that Clinton had not pressured or bribed her in any way. Starr declined to further investigate the issue, and mentioned it only in a footnote of his final report.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

Kathleen Willey: Target: Caught in the Crosshairs of Bill and Hillary ClintonJust in time for Hillary Clinton's 2008 Presidential campaign comes Kathleen Willey's explosive new book that details how her life was changed - and nearly destroyed - by Bill and Hillary Clinton. Target contains never-before-released details of the intimidation campaign launched to silence Kathleen...one way or the other. It provides new insight not just into the death of Kathleen's husband -- on the same day that Bill Clinton assaulted Kathleen in the Oval Office - but into Bill's sexual addiction and Hillary's compulsive enabling, a dangerous combination when partnered with the power of the presidency. Willey makes a persuasive case that Hillary should NOT be returned to the White House in ANY capacity.And, as evidence that the Clintons haven t changed, the terror and harassment continue. Over 2007's Labor Day weekend, Kathleen's home was burglarized. Instead of taking jewelry or computers, the thief took the manuscript for Target, with its explosive revelations that could damage Sen. Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign.It was a break-in all too reminiscent of an incident 10 years ago in which Kathleen was threatened by a stranger just two days before she was to testify against President Clinton in the Paula Jones sexual harassment case. It's déjà vu all over again -- and time to stop the Clinton machine once and for alThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

After Foster's death, Parks was gunned down.The Clinton's were surrounded in scandal. During the Paula Jones sexual harrassment scandal, some of the key witnesses commited suicide.

In this week's episode, we explore the concept of presidential body counts from two unique perspectives - scandalous affairs and mysterious deaths. Join us as we delve into the recent allegations surrounding Donald Trump's indictment over his financial ties to Stormy Daniels and the impact it could have on his legacy. We'll discuss the details, speculate on the future, and share our thoughts on the probability of the indictment coming to fruition. But we won't stop there. Prepare for an even more thrilling exploration as we uncover the long-standing rumors and conspiracy theories surrounding the Clintons and their alleged connection to dozens of mysterious deaths. From high-profile accidents to untimely demises, we'll examine the facts and conjectures that have fueled these controversial claims.   Follow us on social media & Subscribe to our newsletter: https://linktr.ee/theaustinjadams   Full Transcription:       Hello, you be to full people and welcome to the Adams Archive. Today is going to be a fun one. This week's episode is all about presidential body counts. You heard me write Presidential Body Council, and for some presidents that means something a little bit different than for other presidents, but we're going to explore both of them. From Donald Trump's recent alleged indictment, which is yet to happen over his financial woes payoff of Stormy Daniels, a porn star who allegedly he had an affair with. We'll get into the details, but that's one way of looking at a body count, , and then another way of looking at it is when it comes to, I don't know, Multiple, multiple dozens of bodies that surround the Clinton family. So I thought that would be a fun way to approach this. A little bit different than what everybody else is talking about. So we are going to jump into it all. Why is President Trump being indicted? What is going on with it? Why is it not seemingly happened yet? Is it even going to happen? I have some opinions about that. And then we'll get into the history of the Clinton family's body count. Stick around. It's gonna be a fun one. All right. But before we do that, go ahead and hit that subscribe button. Just takes about two seconds of your time, but it'll make you feel all fuzzy inside knowing that you are now a part of the Adams Archive Movement. That's right. All right. Hit that subscribe button. I would appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. Leave a five star review if you are already subscribed. Uh, if you've already left a. And if you haven't, head over to the austin adams.subs.com and, uh, you'll be able to get the podcast companion, all the links, all the articles from this week's, uh, podcast, all the fun stuff. So head over there right now, austin adams.subs.com. And that's all I got for you for right now. All right, let's jump into it. The Adams archive.   All right. Now there is one reason that Trump hasn't been arrested. One reason there's only one. And you wanna know why? Because it's all bullshit. . It's all bullshit. The whole thing. The entire indictment. Okay. I, it's, it's crazy that this has even made headlines with how silly this entire legal situation is. Right. It's an obvious play by the judicial system. It's an obvious play, uh, by the left to kind of keep the smear campaign rolling. . So let's, let's talk about it. So the reason that Trump is being indicted right now is not because he paid, like every single article that you find about this says hush money,  he paid hush money,  and that's not even, that's not the reason. Right. The, the paying somebody hush money is not in the way that it was done illegal itself.  And, and essentially it wasn't hush money, it was an nda. He essentially paid a porn star, stormy Daniels, an n d a, to not come out with some type of expose in 2000 and sixteens, right around his presidential run. So he basically paid her to sign an NDA and say, we're not gonna talk about this,  we're not even gonna address this. Now, I'm not saying Trump didn. Get into it with Stormy Daniels. Um, and we can't add that one ding ding to his body count. Um, but that's, that's not the conversation at hand,  it's not, I guess, illegal to have sex with a porn star even when you're married. . It might be morally, ethically wrong to do so, but it's not something. President is going to go to jail over,  there's all these talks, like, oh, is he gonna be in handcuffs? Is he gonna be like, put into general population in, in the county jail prison system? Could you imagine what that would look like? A apparently there, there's everybody's saying that there's gonna be, like, the Secret Service is gonna be the one to get him, is it gonna be the secret service? Is it gonna be, you know, the, the local municipality, uh, police force? Right. Um, Who knows. And, and again, I don't think this is gonna happen. I do not think this will happen I think it's all bs. I don't think anybody's going to indict him. I don't think a jury would ever rule in favor of this, like silly, like basically, essentially what they're trying to charge him for is not the fact that he. Screwed a porn star when he was married. It's the fact that he paid her this NDA money through some type of, uh, some type of home equity line. That's what it's about. Basically, he, he mismarked where the money came from through his lawyer and then paid his lawyer back through monthly fees, is what they're alleging. Right. So it's like a, a movement of money ploy. It's, it's a financial misdemeanor. It's not even a felony. It's not even a felony that they're trying to charge with him with. It's a, it's a misdemeanor that they're trying to charge him with and they're making this huge fuss over. If you or I. First of all, I would never, nobody would ever care. Right. But. You'd probably get a letter from the irs. Nobody's showing up at your house. They're not commissioning thousands of police officers to shut down the road so that they can put you in handcuffs and get a little video of you walking to the police car and saying your Miranda rights.  This is all a little show. This is all a little facade, and we're gonna talk about maybe some things that I think that it's covering up for, but that's what I think about it it it, the, the crimes that they're accusing him of committing, first of all, even if they're accurate. And even if he did do these things, they're silly.  They're silly. You're not, you're not, you're, you're, you're, it's a smear campaign. It's not an actual movement to get him arrested. It's not an, it's, it's a weaponization of our judicial system to the, one of the worst, most like, egregious ways that we've ever seen that happen in the United States. He's a former president,  whatever you think about Trump, he's a former p. Right. Even Nixon was pardoned,  like obviously, I, I don't think Biden's gonna pardon Trump even if he gets, you know, not that he would need to based on a misdemeanor charge, but this whole thing is silly. It's, it's all bs. So. Let's, let's read this article here. It says, as the political landscape continues to heat up in the anticipation of the upcoming election, former President Trump finds himself at the center of a controversial case in Manhattan that has yet to result in an indictment. This case, which resolve revolves around a 2016 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels, has sparked heated debates on whether the judicial system is being weaponized against Trump to hinder his chances of winning an. The fact that no former US president has faced an indictment begs the question, is the current political landscape going too far in pursuing charges against Trump? His historical accounts of presidents accused of felonious activities such as Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton revealed that these cases were pardoned or settled without charges. Howing a stark difference in the treatment of Trump's. Right, and that's not even to talk about Bill Clinton was literally getting one off under the desk. Under the desk in the Oval Office, talk about salacious acts and, and he was not being charged for it,  he, he like literally left office on that note and, and did not get charged, never went to jail. There was nobody, there was no rogue da like going out on a limb trying to go after him. I don't think that's what's happening. Obviously, this, he's, he's going after him specifically because of this payment. It's, it's, it's so ridiculous, the entire reasoning. So let, let's keep going. It says, furthermore, the crime in question seems to be a mere misdemeanor relating to the use of funds, which has already been disproven in the email released by Michael Cohen's counsel. The letter clearly states that Mr. Cohen used his personal funds to facilitate the payment that neither the Trump organization nor the Trump campaign reimbursed him directly or indirectly. It also argues that the payment does not constitute a campaign contribution or expenditure, and therefore the f e c of lecture jurisdiction over the matter,  and so, so Trump. Truth doubt. This is such a stupid term truth. Trump sent out a message on truth social with a letter that everybody is saying basically that they've already written this off. This has already been proven that it was not his money that was being paid out. Right. And whether it was a slight of hand or whatever, it's all still silly. But it goes on to say that amidst the fren he created by Trump's declaration of his potential arrest and a speculation of an imminent indictment, it is crucial to examine the facts and the broader implications of this. Well, it may seem like a mere misdemeanor. The unprecedented nature of his legal battle against a former president raises concerns about the potential weaponization of the JU judicial system for political game. And we saw this at Mar-a-Lago with documents that nothing ever came out of. Right. We saw this with the Russia, Russia, Russia, uh, hoax as the people would call it.  We saw this with, with it, it, we saw those so many times by now. The fact that any news station is even like, or, or maybe you can see the news stations and why they would give this samari, but the fact that any people in the political sphere, or even in the common. Civilian world is giving two shits about this. The fact that this is every headline on every news station across the country right now is silly. There's been so many attempts at arresting Donald Trump, and we know by now that absolutely nothing is gonna come of it. Absolutely nothing is gonna come.  No. If, if they would've had some great way of arresting Donald Trump, don't you think that it would've came out by now? Don't you think that during, you know, 2020, don't you think after Januarys. Sex, which, you know, he still hasn't been charged for anything there. Right. How many times have they tried to come after Trump and how many times has something actually come out of it? Zero. None. There has not been a single case where they, out of the multiple, multiple times that they've gone after Donald Trump, where anything at all has actually. Come of it,  this goes on to say that as the grand jury's decision remains uncertain, the public must remain vigilant and question the motivations behind the case. Is it the genuine pursuit of justice or is it merely a political tactic? Aim at discrediting Trump and diminishing his chances. In the upcoming election, history has shown that similar cases involving former presidents were treated with mere lenient, more leniency, and it is up to the citizens to ensure that the judicial system remains impartial and unbiased in its pursuit of justice. Now let's talk about that.  What I think out of this, and what I've heard several, several times by now, is that this is going to do nothing but help Donald Trump. This is going to do nothing but incite his followers to know. That exactly what he said all along is what's happening,  the swamp, the, the gators out there lurking beneath the surface. The murky political surface are just coming after Donald Trump once again with some, you know, and, and, and maybe it's not even the, the, the whole swamp. Maybe it's one guy trying to make his name off of some bs,  it, it, it's just the. So many negative things that come out of this for the left and so many positive things that come out of this for the right. Again, if nothing happens out of this, what do you think is gonna happen for his followers? What do you think is gonna happen when, when everybody realizes if they haven't already, which is be kind of silly on their part, that this is nothing but like a political game,  all this is gonna do is, is get his crowd, his followers, to further be motivated to go out and vote and to keep the narrative going.  I, I do not think, I do not think that this is the, this will be the end of Trump, and I don't think literally anybody who even believes that this is gonna go to a trial or he's gonna actually be arrested, think that either,  so if this is not going to hurt Trump in any way, all it's gonna do is. All it's gonna do is, is bring mo more voters out in 2024. And it's done nothing too. But like the Trump first DeSantis situation here is, is pretty interesting. DeSantis has come out and, and said that, well, I'm, I'm not gonna actively pursue Donald Trump because Trump basically went to Mar-a-Lago, um, during all of this. In Florida, and DeSantis said that, well, I, I'm not gonna go after Trump. I'm not gonna allow them to come in here and, and do that. I'm not gonna play the game. Now, I don't know what that actual division of power actually looks like. Like does he have the power to stop them from coming in there? I don't believe so. If it's a federal government, but it is New York going for him. Right. He, he's not gonna, um, they're, they're not gonna go. I don't know. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out and, . I just think nothing's gonna come of it. That's my personal opinion. And then maybe I'll be wrong and, and maybe we'll see a big huge, uh, headline tomorrow of, of Trump in, uh,  Trump in, in handcuffs being walked into a jail cell right now. Could you imagine like, there, there's gotta be somebody who can make a car, at least a cartoon of Trump getting arrested, going into general population, and then just like getting swarmed by people. And, uh, you know, all, all of the. People in the jail cells around him in general population and just . Like there's, there's gotta be a somebody who can make a cartoon of him just like beating the shit out of all of these inmates that are trying to attack him. But imagine how many people would be motivated in a jail cell to try to attack Donald Trump. I don't know. It's it, there's, there's a funny cartoon there somewhere that somebody could make. Um, alright, so let's keep moving on right there. There's far more people who should be being arrest. Then Donald Trump right now,  maybe it's Hunter Biden for one,  maybe we talk about Hunter Biden. Maybe it's the, I don't know, underage pictures of his niece that were found on his laptop, allegedly,  maybe it's the, uh, the, the, the text messages were he's basically grooming that same niece of his to meet up with him in a bathroom in some store, alleged. Maybe it's the, the, the $10,000 he asked his father for to pay off Russian prostitutes. Allegedly. Maybe it's the facilitation of his father's, uh, political power to the Chinese or to. Barisma in or to Ukrainian companies that have to do with Biolabs, allegedly . I'm sure there's a few things that we could point to that Hunter Biden could be arrested for. Maybe it's the crack pipe in his mouth,  like if there was a picture of Donald Trump with a crack pipe in his mouth, sucking on Stormy Daniel's toes. That would be something that everybody could rally around him being arrested for, but there's not. But you know who there is a picture of that  is Hunter Biden and nobody's going to arrest him.  There's, there's far better reasons. Maybe we should go after George Bush for, you know, getting us involved in a 20 year war over false pretenses,  may, maybe there's something there,  maybe there's something for him making billions and trillions of dollars for the military industrial complex,  maybe there's something around the Clintons,  maybe that, we'll, we'll get to in a minute. Maybe there's, I don't know, maybe go after Sam Hunt for, for.  doing demo. Seances during the Oscars or, or wearing clothes that make him look like a tightly wrapped skirt steak? I don't know. May, maybe there's some other people that we should talk about here that should be arrested Not, uh, not Donald Trump. And his payment. Oh, did I mention that this was all six years ago,  this wasn't even a recent hush money scandal. Right. This was, this was almost more than half of a decade ago that this happened. . Right. Speaking of George Bush, I saw this on Reddit a little bit ago, but like speaking of George Bush, where did all the terrorists go? Right. Has anybody else noticed that since the onset, like after the pandemic and everything and the US has withdrawal from Afghanistan, terrorists worldwide have just hit the snooze button on going after the, the, the, the west , they're just, they're just off sleep and in some cave somewhere. Right. That they just didn't realize the pandemic's over and are still quarantining. Right. It's it, they took a gap. From, from their terrorist activities,  for, for 20 years, terrorism topped the charts as the, the main conversation in every mainstream media, every mainstream media platform from Fox News, cnn, anywhere that you would look,  they were talking about the Taliban, they were talking about Al-Qaeda. Where, where'd they go?  Where are they? Where, where, where are they? What, what's going on there? Like, just. , well ex, you know, except for those pesky little January 6th terrorists who only, who only happened to show their faces just in time for the government's political narratives. Right. Just in time for, uh, a o c to hide under a desk and take a selfie video.  Yeah. The only terrorists we've seen in the wild just so happened to be wearing American flags,  on, on their shirt, or hanging from their trucks. . Right. Quite convenient. Right. And, and, and this is another thing that I saw this Reddit thread allude to is the fact that you would think during lockdowns terrorism would've been at its worst,  there was already a massive amount of public fear,  there was already so much fear in the public psyche, right. Were were terrorists more scared of covid than they were of the United States military?  No Taliban, no Al-Qaeda,  they, they swapped their, you know, tightly laced combat boots out for some Crocs, and they're just playing  Call of Duty all day instead of, you know, crashing planes into large buildings, allegedly uh, right. Seems pretty weird,  there's, there's still no more terrorists attacks going.  anyways,  even North Korea seems to have like calmed down a little bit. Although I guess I saw something the other day that there was like 800,000 soldiers who happened to volunteer for North Korea and they were calling on the United States like being ready for some type of war with the us. Nothing to see there,  at least nothing that the mainstream media wants you to talk about cuz I only saw it on real News. No bull. Um, if you don't, haven't heard me talk about them in a while, real news, no bullshit or real news, no bs uh, or online. Uh, that's their handle on like social media or real news. Not bs.com is their website. Their, their social media is a little bit better than their website. Their website I, I paid for, but I don't feel like I get much out of it. Um, but great way for, you know, actual individual journalism along with Atlas News is another good one anyway. Right. Like ever since Trump, there's been no terrorism whatsoever,  no. Nobody's, you know, popping their head up. There's no, there's no new like, leader that we're allegedly going after,  um, I don't think Trump completely wiped out Al-Qaeda,  we basically just handed them the keys along with 80 billion worth of military equipment, and, you know, now we're just not hearing from them after massive deals for cobalt mining. in Afghanistan with China nonetheless.  Mm. Kind of weird. I don't know what to think of that, but I did find it interesting. Right. Another thing that I find interesting that we no longer see in the news, like speaking of lost narratives, Trump has sex with some random porn star allegedly, and now there's no more aliens,  it's magical how all the U f O conversations.  gone. ,  there's nothing to be talked about in the news right now about, uh, uh, aliens, UFOs, spacecraft. Uh, you know, there, there's no conversations being had right now. Like all of a sudden the aliens went away just in time for Donald Trump to be indicted for, you know, paying off a porn star six years ago. Kind of bizarre,  isn't it strange how the world of politics and media. Absolutely blindside us with information just to, just to hype us up,  it's like this, this one month news cycle,  one minute we're all on the edge of our seats waiting for the next congressional hearing on UFOs, and all of a sudden Trump pays off a porn star and all of our interests and, and aliens just takes a backseat.  That's, that's an interesting concept to me is like how often. Like how, like how do we break that? How do we break the, the, the attention on the news cycle? Because if it's not aliens and literal motherships, like there was articles about a mothership releasing drones from space into our solar system.  You want to talk about priming,  if that's not actually happening, what are they priming us for? Cuz that's even far more concerning. But the fact that all of that news coverage, all of that news media like I did, you walk into work after fricking M S N BC comes out and says there's a mothership releasing drones into our world, And there. Nobody talking about it,  steve's still being an asshole in sales,  uh, Monica is still, you know, not, not getting you over the email when she should be like, George is still dropping the ball in hr, um, recruiting new people for your department. Like nobody's talking about alien motherships. What, what is it? What would it take for us to have a long standing attention on. Well, apparently it takes Donald Trump paying off a porn star.  like that has gone far more into the human psyche for a longer period of time than alien motherships. Right. I I, I don't even know where to take that. It's, it's just so bizarre to me, right. How, how much programming is involved, right. Like you would think. Alien Motherships being released, you know, releasing drones into our atmosphere. And, and the, the, um, the collective unconscious would be on that, like Hunter Biden on the floor looking for a piece of Dr. Crack,  like  just sifting through the carpet, looking for crack. But no. Instead we're focusing on Trump's financial movements for a misdemeanor crime that he allegedly committed six years ago. It's all a little interesting to me right now on the backs of that. Now let's, let's actually talk about the Hunter Biden situation. Cause I think , I think there's some few things that you missed there. Like if you haven't dove deep into the Hunter Biden laptop, I did two full episodes on it. Two full deep dives into the conversations months and months and months ago now.  You wanna talk about who should actually be being arrested,  you want, you wanna. Who's on the right side of, of, of history? Look at who, the judicial system, who, who the mainstream media has been weaponized against.  It's Trump, it's it's Covid. It's Ivermectin, it's Joe Rogan. It's, it's the conspiracy theorists. It's Robert Malone.  You want to, you want to know who the people are, who are telling the truth. Look to who the government is trying. Actively silence. Look to who Snoop's next article was written about. Right. I've, I've been using probably too many good news sources recently, like Real News, no bullshit, like Atlas News, like some of these independent journalists like Matt Taibbi. I should probably just start going to Snoops with all of the conspiracy theories that have been proven to be true lately for my facts.  Just, just assume everything on Snopes is. And that's where the best news stories are. Um, it seems like a better way of going about it, but if you actually go back to the Hunter Biden laptop, one of the most interesting cases that is not very much talked about, I gu I guess there's been some more recent con like pictures that came out showing potentially Lady Gaga. Like smoking next to Hunter Biden. Like I, I saw a meme about Hunter Biden with, it was like Hunter Biden about to have sex and it was him with like some military hat on with like 25 GoPros  around his head. Uh, it seems like literally everybody that that man has ever had sex with, he felt the need to take a picture of um, one of them potentially being Lady Gaga allegedly. Cuz there was a very, very, very. Uh, similar looking woman in the picture with him with almost identical hair, nose, facial structure that he was standing next to, um, taking a, a selfie with. But another interesting one is, uh, what is her name? Gosh, Obama's daughter. Right. What is Obama's daughter's name? It's like millennia or it's not millennia. That sounds like a, what is her name? Let's see if we can find it here. Yeah. Not Natasha Malia. That's what it was. That was pretty close,  malia Trump. Trump, Malia Obama . There was pictures when she was underage during the time where apparently Malia Obama was in a picture naked, allegedly with Hunter Biden, where she actually like had a debit or a credit card that somebody linked back to her because you could see a portion of her name on it with cocaine on. There's so much in that laptop and, and nothing's happened with that. That's why it's just so crazy to me that Trump is even being talked about.  There's so many things that our judicial system, there's so many people that they should be going after, maybe, I don't know, maybe the woman who just left office, the speaker of the house. Uh, maybe you should be going after her for the 50 billion or whatever that Pelosi made from actively day trading. The very things that she was currently working on, writing legislation surrounding, you know, or her husband. Now there is one thing that I found, you know, another thing that came up, which was that there was additional footage about, uh, Pelosi's husband and the hammer situation and stuff. And it doesn't exactly appear as it initially came off when the story came out where it was like potentially his male lover, but I don't know, maybe it was  who, who knows. Maybe I'll check Snopes to see if, if, uh, they have anything to say about that. All right. But as I said at the beginning of this, there's two ways to think about body counts. The first. Is Trump's body count in the sheets. The second way,  is actual body bags. And when we're talking about pot, uh, potential body counts for presidents. There's really one name that sticks out and it's the Clintons. So we will jump into that in just a moment. But first, go ahead and hit that subscribe button.

That is easy and passive, but you have an app up on your phone right now. And you are listening to this app, and one out of six of you, at least one out of seven of you that is listening to this right now, one outta 10, have not left a review, have not hit that five star button,  and it would help tremendously. If you are still listening to this podcast, I know you know how easy it is to leave a five star review. So go ahead and click that button and then next time, next episode, when we're talking about these things, the craziness that is going on in this world, You'll know, you'll have that fuzzy feeling in your stomach.

And I will drink during that time and then I'll toast you and then I'll take another sip. Here we go. Hear that. Thank you so much. I appreciate you. Now let's move on. Speaking of presidential body counts, why is there not an indictment about the former Clinton Aid who literally shot himself in the chest and then hung himself 30 miles from his house and the shotgun just so happened to be 30 feet from his body after he did so? Right. If anybody's going to be Indic. Right. Speaking of presidential body counts, if anybody's gonna be indicted, it should probably be the people who have the same last name and have, I don't know. 53 people around them who have in some way, shape, or form been connected to them that have unlived themselves, So for years, the Clinton family has been surrounded by a seemingly endless string of mysterious deaths,  many of the deceased had ties to the Clintons and even some possessed potential damaging information. This says the coincidences are too numerous to ignore, and the intrigue only intensifies. Examine each case. I'm gonna go on to list an astonishing list. Over 50 people here who have been tied to the Clintons that have unlived themselves or been directly killed, that have been tied back to them in some way, shape, or form. But at first, Let's go ahead and pull up this, this audio here. There's a couple clips of some people that you might appreciate, uh, talking about the Clinton body count as we preempt this wonderful, beautiful list here together. All right, so the first one let's listen to is going to be from the two Bears one, uh, cave Podcast, , which is Tom Segura. Um, talking about this, which I find to be pretty funny. . All right. And here we go. Are insane. Yeah. That you just get so like everybody's just like you want in on this? Yeah. Also, would you like to give a speech? Yeah. It's 500 grand. Yeah.  for you to talk about what, what it was like to be president? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. When I was president it was pretty wild. Yeah. Like it's fucking, that's, you get 500 grand for that shit. Big time. They do a series, write a book.  15 million advance, and they're not giving you that money to curry favor. They're doing it cuz they really wanna hear what you have to say. Yeah. They wanna hear what Hillary Hill, you know, we gotta regulate Wall Street. And then you look at her tour schedule, she's like, bear Stearns, JP Morgan , you're going. That's weird. Yeah, no, that's a fun one, by the way, when you talk about conspiracy theories. Yeah. The most fun. , I think is the Clinton family stuff. Like, and, and it's fun because there's a lot of, there are, it's like, uh, six degrees of separation, but six degrees of death with death. Clinton. Yeah. So many people that are like associated former employees, colleagues, they're like dead, dead, dead. Yeah. then, uh, what is it, Clinton Road, Epstein's playing like, I don't know, half a dozen times or more. He, I think he was the pilot of it at one point. Yeah, , I think he was driving it. He was always on that thing. He was fucking on that thing, dude. And they're like, ask him about ep. Yeah. I mean he was like a gold fire. We're talking about money . Yeah, that's it. He was like a gold medallion, like frequent flyer, frequent fly a lot of miles on that plane. What'd you do when you got to that island? Ah, we golfed the beach. It's a beach. Yeah. Golf. You've been to an island? Yeah. Great golf. Yeah, we golfed on that tiny little uh, uh, secret island. The amount of people that have died. That we're close to them. It is. It's like a have you look up Clinton body count. Yeah, it's a little weird. It is a little weird. It's a little weird. It is a fun one. I would get into . It's got his own Wikipedia , is it? Oh, it's a discredited conspiracy theory. Excuse. No, they pulled up Wikipedia and there is actually a Wikipedia page all around the Clinton body count that is the title of the Wikipedia. Clinton body count. There's so many, and then there's this creepy picture of both of them standing there with these murderous smiles on their face.  next to the words Clinton body count. Like imagine there's, there's no Trump body count. There's no bush body count, although there should be for that one. Um, I wonder how big that ticker would look like. Um, but there is a Clinton body count, Wikipedia page, and then entire page dedicated to it. Excuse me, please. Sorry. I forget. Alleged victims. There's. , former finance co-chairman, uh, Victor Razor. Mary Mohan White House intern. Didn't wanna suck it. Dead. , uh, Vince Foster, of course, it was a big one. Big one that would be a White House. Uh, council found dead in Fort Marcy Park in Virginia, outside Washington. Autopsy determined he was shot in the. His death was ruled as suicide by five official investigations where remains the subject of conspiracy theories. Um, for knowing too much about the Clintons. Seth Rich, everybody knows Seth Rich. Mm-hmm. , uh, unsolved Murder still. Jeffrey Epstein. Um, we talked about him. Christopher Sign wrote the news of a meeting. Oh man, this was, this was huge. And was, um, thought. Greatly sway the election. Oh yeah. In 16, this is when, uh, Clinton met with then Attorney General Loretta Lynch. Um, and it was like, it was, so it was like, uh, we're on the tarmac. Hey, why don't you like pull that plane back up for a second. . I want to have a quick chat. Yeah. Um, and sign was found dead in his Alabama home. His death. Anyways. It, it is so crazy. There's a literal dedicated Wikipedia page,  and, and how there's so many people that have talked about this. Now, Epstein's an interesting one,  and, and, and let me preface this all with this. These are all just conspiracy theories, folks. It's very, very possible that the Clintons have never done anything wrong at all. They're just very nice people with the best interest of our, you know, nation at hand. And just everybody has these silly little thoughts about them. Like, I don't know, you killed a bunch of people. It's very, very, very real. I don't think the Clintons killed. I'm winking. I don't think that at all. Right. Um, so, you know, I like my life. I, I, I don't want to be found somewhere with a, a, you know, a, a beautifully written note in a field somewhere that is cursive. That, that looks nothing like mine stating how I am done with this world. So, you know, this is all conspiracy theories. This is all thought experiments folks. We're just messing around . Uh, so let's, let's move on here. But Epstein's an interesting one,  the reason that people think Epstein now, now again, in this fun little world of conspiracies, I don't think Hillary Clinton is walking around with a knife in, in a, a. Six shooter in her pocket in a, a cowboy hat with a mustache killing all these people. I, I don't think that, I think they're probably. Allegedly hiring very, very high cost mercenaries that all of these people in these very elite societies have some sort of access to. You know, and, and this is something that you'll see next in the clip of, of Duncan Trussel and Joe Rogan talking about this. And by the way, Duncan Tru Duncan Trussel, of everybody that I listened to, even, even more than Joe Rogan even. He's top three for me,  it's like Lex Friedman, um, Duncan Trestle. Those would be my top two,  um, and I can throw some other people in there. Russell Branch or Rogan, like there's some, some, some great people out there that are Andrew Huberman that are doing great. Um, great work in the podcast, uh, scheme. But Duncan Trussell's conversations with Joe Rogan. If you do nothing else with podcasts besides listen to my entire library, , which I hope you do. Go listen to every Joe Rogan Duncan Trestle podcast, and then come back here and thank me. Uh, it's, it's just incredible, incredible conversations. He's such an interesting dude, and we'll listen to them, uh, here in just a moment. But, um, back to the conversation at hand, I don't think it's Hillary Clinton with a mustache and a cowboy hat and the six shooter and a knife walking around killing all these people. They're very, very highly paid Merc.  all around the world. This is a real thing,  uh, the cia, red Squad, the, the, um, right. All there's, there's all of these different, uh, teams that are go from being high, high up at the tip of the spear special missions units in, in the military, um, in, in whatever country that they're serving to going and making. And, and maybe I'm wrong, but it seems like it's a probably a pretty strong possibility that if you are in one of those extremely, extremely high positions, there's some real money to be made If you can get in and get outta somewhere and do a, a dirty deed done dirt cheap to quote ac d c ,  um, there's probably some money to be made and if there was money to be, Right. The book deals that they're talking about, the 14 million advances, even if just, you know, 250,000 goes to, uh, eliminating some random woman who a accuses your husband of grabbing her ass during a, a campaign that you don't need that negativity on, eh, quarter mill doesn't seem too bad. That's like. A fifth of a, a speech at JP Morgan Chase for the Clintons . So let's, let's listen to this next clip. This is Duncan Trestle and Joe Rogan talking about the Clinton body count. Now to preface this, they are sitting here in the  revolutionary wartime wigs, uh, big white wigs with, uh, big coats. Um, it's, it's a site to be seen, but, um, this is, uh, Let's see if it even tells us which episode. Um, no, but here we go. It's, it's, it's good stuff. How many guys that have been killed or died rather, I should say, by suicide, accidental suicide through, uh, auto erotic asphyxiation when they have like a vibrator up their ass and they're wearing a fucking wetsuit. Yeah, and they're, they're hanging. How many of those guys were just. I What percentage? A lot. Half. How many of them work for the fucking Clinton's? There's your answer. Oh man. Did that Clinton, the last that, that's who? The last guy. Wow. Like they're not even trying. To make it secret , and we're gonna, we're gonna get to this one a, a bit too, but they talk about it in this, so it's, it's crazy. The most recent one that is like the most obvious Clinton, uh, with the mustache and, and a six shooter and the cowboy hat situation is, is, is this one that they're about to talk about. It's, it's so crazy that this is like, and Trump's getting indicted for moving money in the wrong place with a misdemeanor and it's this huge orde. That's, it's so crazy. It's like you saying there's a Clinton body count makes you a conspiracy theorist. Yeah. Like there's how many, but like I, you know, it's just a lot of coincidences dunking. You're not supposed to know that many people who've committed suicide. Like, you know what I mean? Like if I knew. 30. Like if 30 people that used to work for me had committed suicide and I didn't have something to do with it, like I would start going crazy , I would shut down my business. Yeah. I'd be like, you know, I don't know if it's me or it's something about me, but everyone who works for me, lots of people that work for me, they kill themselves. So I'm not doing it anymore. I'm gonna like get a little apartment. You know, just like, just ride out the rest of my life. I'm gonna get a cabin and start writing books, write books, whatever. Just know, I don't want, I don't want any more people to die. But yeah, that body count thing is really like, what's the number? What I, I don't know. I think it's, what's it up to, Jamie? Supposedly 39. 39, I think 39 people that you, that you've worked with. Died like in the gym, they have these accidents. It's like, imagine you have Putin's body count. It's only like 20. Like it's way higher. Yeah. If, uh, what is this? That's the guy. So Mark Middleton dead at 59. Clinton special advisor who let Epstein into the White House seven times dies. Um, this is a sun report, just so, oh, the sun. Of course. I'm reading how it's clarity. So scroll up a little bit. What's the, . It's like, uh, you know, a lot of celebrity news and a lot of salacious news,  yeah. It's like, it's a little bit fun. It's like a fun newspaper. So sad, sad, fun stories that doesn't, wait, what are they saying? Just so that we, it doesn't show the weird parts about it. Just find the one where it shows it. Yeah. Find the, there's an article about his suicide. He, uh, hung himself with an extension cord and shot himself in the chest and shot simultaneous. Yeah, like Yo , I mean, this one is family, uh, of Bill Clinton advisor who admitted Jeffrey Epstein into White House seven times, has blocked release of files detailing the death scene after he was found hanging from a tree with a shotgun blast at a ranch 30 miles from his home. Kids, kids monsters are. Okay. Here's the problem with conspiracy theories. There's so many people that are willing to jump on so many of 'em. Yeah. So many dumb ones. Yeah. That it muddies the water and it makes the, the word a pejorative. Oh, you're a conspiracy theorist. Yeah. It's like you don't think that some people occasionally conspire Like, are we in denial? Yeah. Of one of the. Basic aspects of greedy people. Sure. To conspire people with power that control. No, they stopped giant swaths of the globe. They don't do anymore. They stopped a long time ago. They used to. A long time ago. That was a long time ago. Wealthy people, you know, Royal Quartz, royalty kings or whatever. Yeah. It was intrigue and they would poison people and kill them, but they stopped because wealthy people, you know, they've learned how to be. Kinder and Nice. And the pharmaceutical company said they're sorry and they paid the money. Yeah. Everything's fine now. No, it changed. The world changed. It used to be like that. Yeah. The world's beautiful now It's perfect. It's fine. No one would ever do that. No one's resort to that kind of murdering thing, like Yeah, nobody would. I mean, the, our armies do it, but aside from our armies, no. People who are in charge of the armies would do it when they're off work. . When they're off work. So let's, let's explore some of the lists here. So, so there's, there's a, the attack happened here early Sunday morning, 27 year old. Here's Seth Rich. Here's, here's, uh, one of the most, um, consistently talked about one. So let's, let's let this play for a minute, cuz it just comes right up after that one and we'll see if anything comes out of it. Seth Rich is one of the most famous cases about the Epsteins or about the Epstein, about the Clintons. Seth Rich seen here in his LinkedIn profile. Picture murdered as he walked in a neighborhood. He called home. Seth Rich was shot twice in the back in what police said. Looked like a botched robbery. He was taken to hospital, but died two hours later, just one of 139 murders in the DC area. Last. Still, the death of somebody linked to Hillary Clinton's campaign was enough to set the internet, a light with theories about what might have really happened. In August, WikiLeaks offered a $20,000 reward. And then on Dutch television, WikiLeaks found in Julian Assange suggested that Rich was his source for the Democrats emails. I'm suggesting that our sources, uh, take risks and they are, they become concern. Uh, to see things occurring, uh, like that. But was he one of your sources then? I mean, we don't comment on who our sources are, but why make the suggestion about a young guy being shot in the streets of Washington? Because, uh, we have to understand, uh, how high the states are, uh, in the United States whoa. I didn't know that the WikiLeaks leaker of the DNC emails with Hillary Clinton's emails was Seth Rich. I, I hadn't gotten that far in this reading yet. . Whoa, that's crazy. And that was Julian Assange, the man himself commenting in that video, talking about it. Um,  and you think he randomly got shot in the street. No way.  As, as Joe Rogan put it, you'll think people sometimes conspire , like you think that's a coincidence. Absolutely. No way.  They, he leaks the Hillary Clinton emails and all of a sudden he gets shot in the back twice in New York for, no, in a, in a robbery, you shoot somebody in a back, in a robbery. So let's go through some of this list here. Here's an astonishing list of individuals connected to the Clintons who met untimely ends, to say the least. All right, we'll go through some of these. I don't know if we'll go through all of them, but obviously that's a pretty damn good intro into it. Let's talk about Epstein Seth Rich,  those are some pretty serious names tied to the Clintons, but let's go on,  james McDougal was a key witness in Ken Starr's investigation. In Clinton's conviction or convicted whitewater partner found dead in solitary confine confinement from an apparent heart attack. Mary Mahoney former White House intern, planning to expose her story of sexual harassment was murdered in a Georgetown Starbucks. Vince Foster, former White House counselor in Hillary Clinton's colleague at Rose Law Firm ruled a suicide by gunshot wound to the head. Ron Brown, secretary of Commerce, former D N c Chairman and potential whistleblower died in a plane crash with his suspicious gunshot like hole in his skull. Hmm. Now I will, That is very hard to find. You know, like they said about the sun, it's a, like this list didn't come from Fox News, if that's your source of correct information. So take some of this with a grain of salt, but the fact that you can probably reverse engineer almost any one of these names and find the correlation and then find that they're dead in a very similar fashion than what they're talking about here. It says Victor Riser in Montgomery Riser. Major Clinton fundraisers killed in a private praying cla praying plane crash. Paul Toley, democratic National Committee political director in Clinton, confidant, found dead in Little Rock Hotel room. Ed Willy Clinton fundraiser found dead with a gunshot wound to the head in the woods of Virginia, ruled a suicide, died the same day as his wife claimed. Bill Clinton groped. Jerry Parks head of Clinton's goober Notator security team gunned down in his car. His son Claim Parks was building a dossier on Clinton. James Bunch found dead from a gunshot suicide. Reportedly had a black book containing names of influential people visiting prostitutes in Texas and Arkansas. James Wilson tied to a whistle or, uh, tied to whitewater, found dead in May, 1993 from an apparent hanging suicide. I said whistleblower, probably because of Julian Assange at this point. Um, Kathy Ferguson, ex-wife of Arkansas, trooper Danny Ferguson was found dead in May, 1994 in her living room with a gunshot to her head. it was ruled a suicide even though there were several packed suitcases as if she were going somewhere. Danny Ferguson was a co-defendant along with Bill Clinton In the Paula Jones lawsuit, Kathy Ferguson was a possible corroborating witness for Paula Jones. That is 11 of them. We can keep going. Bill Shelton or uh, Arkansas State Trooper Gunshot wound ruled a suicide critical of the suicide ruling of his fiance who was found dead in. Gandy Baugh. Attorney for Clinton's friend died of jumping out of a window in 1994. His client was a convicted drug distributor, Florence Martin, accountant and subcontractor for the cia. Uh, Suzanne Coleman reportedly had an affair with Clinton when he was an Arkansas attorney, uh, died of a gunshot wound to the back of her head pregnant at the time of her death. Paula gr. Clinton's speech interpreter for the death from 1978 until her death December, 1992. She died in one car crash. Eh, that might be bullshit,  people die of car crashes. Danny Castro in investigative reporter investigating Mina Airport and Arkansas Development Finance Authority slit his wrists apparently in the middle of his investigation into Clinton's, Paula Wichner, John Walker. Barbara Weiss says that, uh, commerce Department staffer worked closely with Ron Ba Brown and John Hong cause of death unknown. Charles Messer goes on and on and on. Dr. Stanley heard right, how many people had to die , how many people died around them before you start to ask questions,  like I, I. I don't know that many people that have died. Like there's a, a small handful of people that I've ever run into, let alone people who have shot themselves. And maybe it's like sixth degree of SEP separation,  but like, these aren't six degrees, this is like first, second degree,  um, Kevin Ives and Don Henry, known as the Boys on the track case reports say the boys may have stumbled upon the Mena Arkansas's airport drug operation. The controversial case. The initial report of death said due to falling asleep on railroad tracks. Later reports claim the two boys had been slain before being placed on the tracks. Many linked the case, uh, linked to the case died before their testimony could come before a.  Yeah. Get the point. And this even going all the way up to Hillary's 2016 presidential run, um, world renowned space economist Molly McCauley, brutally murdered in Baltimore as she, uh, had testified before Congress many times. She was vice president at Resource for the Future, and in the junk professor at John Hopkins University, she was stabbed to death while walking her dogs in Baltimore Park. Her name is on this list because of her ties in Washington as well as her death just days before the murder of Seth. Hmm, interesting. And then we get to Seth Rich,  if, if none of these other ones even matter,  like let's talk about the, I dunno, eight or nine bodyguards that were in there, , if none of those matter. You want to talk about Seth Rich? That is one of the craziest ones,  and, and this, this article that I found to even talks about it being a possible connection. Julia Assange just. Told us everything. But the fact that sh, he was the one that gave them that information, right, gave them access to all of the emails. Crazy. And then it goes on to talk about John Ash, Victor Thorns, John Lucas, and the list goes on,  so, so many people from whistleblowers to bodyguards. These deaths have, have, should at least raise some eyebrows. If you have 52 people around you that are in some way or shape or form associated with you, or were coming after you in some legal manner and they just so happen to die. And that's somehow always related to potentially suicides, gunshot wounds. Right. There's a fair amount of plane crashes. Right. And then Mark Middleton,  the one that Joe Rogan and Duncan Trust were talking about. But as the body count climbs the likelihood of this, like the think of the likelihood, how, how many people do you know that have died? Now think of how many people you know that have died tragically. Now think of how many people you know that have died tragically, were coming after you legally and also so happened to commit suicide. Like the, the, the, the, the statistics aren't in their favor, . So as we talk about this, Donald Trump is being Indic. For moving money to pay off an NDA from a. Home equity line, that's what we're talking about here.  for his body count with a porn star next to the 52 names that I just listed that have to do with the Clintons, and I'm sorry if I bored you with some of those names, but it's just pretty wild when you go through some of 'em. And again, I'm not claiming some of those or all of them, or even one of them has to do with the Clinton's in in Hillary with a mustache and a cowboy hat and a six shooter going off and killing all these people. But I am saying it's pretty damn weird. Maybe. Maybe the Manhattan District Attorney should be looking at that instead of Trump's payments to Stormy Daniels from a pote, a possible home equity line , like he mismarked his, his tax return. Right. Maybe just, maybe that's, that's something that should be considered, but I thought that was a fun way of going about this conversation. Right. The body. Compared to the body count, right, Trump's one body count was Stormy Daniels sexually compared to the 52 body counts of the Clinton's, uh, murdery sprees allegedly. Is, uh, an interesting comparison to say the least. So on that note, thank you so much for listening today. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. I truly do. I, I love doing this.

Paula Jones is founder and Principal of Jones Estate Group and adjunct professor at the Western New England University School of Law. With over 25 years of experience, both internationally and domestically, she helps individuals of moderate to high net worth ensure that their assets transfer to the people they love in the right way. Paula shares how listeners can protect themselves and their family during the divorce process in the event of an untimely death. She busts a myth about wills and talks about what to do after divorce where estate planning is concerned. If a divorced or divorcing couple has a settlement agreement, they must honor that agreement when drawing up an estate plan. Existing obligations that continue from a divorce are legal duties, and they cannot be ignored, or else they may face legal repercussions. An estate plan is not just about putting together a will and getting powers of attorney. It involves identifying your assets and who owns them, who your beneficiaries are, how your assets are titled, and if they need to be retitled so they all wind up in the same place. Tenancy by the entirety is a legal arrangement that applies to married couples, where they share equal ownership of an asset with survivorship rights. In the event one of them passes, ownership automatically passes to the survivor. Power of attorney is a legal authorization for a designated person to make decisions on another person's behalf. A complete estate plan includes a will and financial and medical powers of attorney. You should name a primary choice and a backup choice.

Welcome to episode #47 of The Fearless Female Entrepreneur Podcast. I'm welcoming returning guest, business coach and Instagram strategist, Paula Jones.  This is a juicy conversation. This is for anyone who fears failing, who fears that things won;t work out, that they will lose everything. Paula shares her journey of losing her Instagram account of 8,000+ followers as an Instagram strategist and how she handled this devastating setback. There is so much wisdom, rawness and honesty in this conversation. We also dive into the truth about vanity metrics on social media and what's really important to have a successful business -  the REAL value and importance of connections person to person. If you've been caught in the fear and uphill battle of growing your audience and “getting clients”, if you struggle with the perception of failing or not being perfect, if you want to learn how to handle setbacks with grace and empowerment in any area of your life, this conversation is for YOU! Grab your favorite latte, and your journal and listen in.   Here are some words of wisdom from Paula Jones: “How you handle the setback determines how you handle the next one, so you become stronger and stronger and more resilient as you move up in your business and start making more money and serving more clients.” “I focused on the bigger why and at that time the bigger why was that I wanted good to prevail. I did not want this situation to get me down. ANd I wanted those 8,000 followers…to see ‘if I can get knocked down and get back up again, so can you.'” “We are so focused on building these big audiences and being known and being the industry expert…but…it's not about the numbers. It's about the community. Behind every number is a person.” “We can easily get sidetracked by numbers and vanity metrics… and every now and then you have to pull yourself towards yourself and say ‘hey behind that like, behind that comment, behind that view, is an actual person and I could be inspiring him or her today, I can be serving him or her today, I could be adding value' and that's what we need to remember.” “No one who's ahead of you is going to criticize what you're doing. Only those who are behind you are going to criticize what you're doing.” "We hide behind perfection and we try to make it as if everything in our business is perfect and we've got it all figured out, but really none of us have it figured out.” “There's always going to be some form of fear and we can't submit to it all the time. We have to learn how to push through it.”   —----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you are READY to become the woman that has all she desires, if you want to become untethered to the fears and limiting beliefs holding you back from feeling fully confident and unstoppable, the BREAKTHROUGH is perfect for you!
