Ghislaine Maxwell's family released a new statement in response to the Department of Justice's announcement that it is closing its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's co-conspirators. In it, they expressed “relief” that the probe has ended and argued that it validates their long-standing claim that Ghislaine was unfairly targeted and scapegoated. The family asserted that Ghislaine was prosecuted simply because of her association with Epstein, implying that her conviction was more about public pressure than actual culpability. They continue to frame her as a victim of circumstance, not a willing participant in the crimes for which she was convicted.The statement reads less like a defense and more like a soft relaunch of Ghislaine's image—an attempt to reframe her legacy as unjustly ruined rather than rightly condemned. By invoking the DOJ's decision as supposed proof of her innocence, the Maxwell family is working to erase the mountain of evidence, the survivor testimony, and the jury's unanimous verdict that put her in prison. It's a bold move—one that deliberately ignores the reality of what she did and who she helped. Their message isn't justice-seeking; it's reputation management dressed up as vindication.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ghislaine Maxwell's family breaks their silence with bombshell claim as Trump decision to close Epstein case triggers MAGA civil war and cover-up claims | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Some of the most inspiring stories in our industry are when a company who has been a leader in their category for more than 100 years can find the grit, determination, and change management energy to transform to meet today and tomorrow's shopper however and wherever they want.

Marilia Moreira, Whirlpool's Digital Marketing Director, has spent 18 years at Whirlpool, and is now focused on bringing their digital and agentic product experiences to life for consumers on every touchpoint. She shared the people, processes, and metrics they have devised to continually elevate their ability to help their consumer choose Whirlpool.

Kentucky's consistently inconsistent, roller coaster of a season has come to an end. Iowa State took Kentucky's best shot and then punched the Cats in the mouth and stifled them en route to pulling away for a relatively easy win. Injuries happened but they can't be leaned on as a crutch. There are lots of questions to be answered and lots of pressures building heading into year 3 for Mark Pope. Check out our Linktree!

Stuck in a Rut? Breaking the Cycle of "Try Harder" | Flawed: God's Grace for Broken PeopleHave you ever felt like your life is like a "walking" washing machine? You hit pause, move things around, and promise to do better — but a few weeks later, you're right back in the same "thump, thump, thump" of the old cycle. In the start of our new series, "Flawed: God's Grace for Broken People," we explore the "Wild West" of the Bible: the book of Judges. We discuss why we get stuck in spiritual ruts and, more importantly, how we can get out. In this message, we cover: The 4-stage "Spin Cycle" that keeps us from moving forward. Why "Spiritual Amnesia" fuels Israel's downfall in Judges and our biggest failures. The "Circuit Breaker" that truly ends the cycle for good—(It's the Cross, by the way!) The Bottom Line: You don't break the cycle by trying harder; you do it by remembering better. If you've ever felt like a "work in progress" or if you're tired of running the same loop in your struggles, this message is for you. God doesn't wait for you to get it right before He moves toward you; He meets you right in the mess.

Welcome back to cycling's most prestigious awards show. 

The Trump Administration has made life very challenging for immigrants across the United States. And that's really been felt here in the Bay Area, where roughly a third of residents are immigrants. Many of the rights immigrants to the U.S. have are actually rooted right here in San Francisco's Chinatown. The community there came together more than a century ago, to fight against government efforts to remove Chinese people from the country.KALW recently held a live event focused on the history of one of the most prominent businesses for Chinese immigrants: laundries. It was called "The Anti-Immigrant Spin Cycle: Challenging A White-Washed History."  The evening was hosted by KALW's Executive Producer, Ben Trefny. And included David Lei, a board member with the Chinese Historical Society of America, Here's part of their conversation, starting with David explaining the court case of Yick Wo v. Hopkins, and how it shaped the rights for immigrants in America today.

In this episode, Ayana explores the cyclical nature of American politics, highlighting how history often repeats itself through recurring themes of conflict, reform, backlash, and renewal. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing these patterns to transform them into spirals of progress, urging listeners to learn from the past to foster a more just and stable future.

From accusations of activist gatekeeping inside the BBC, to Europe's cultural unraveling, to the long history of American media scandals—from Dan Rather's “fake but accurate” fiasco to Stephen Glass's fabricated reporting—the episode explores how legacy outlets bend reality, protect their own, and rebuild disgraced figures. With detours through C.S. Lewis, Christmas market unrest, and the modern newsroom's ethical shortcuts, this commentary pulls back the curtain on the media fraternity that always seems to land on its feet.

Caley, Jonny, and Kit are back in the Spin Cycle studio for the final (men's) Tour episode. Is Pogačar burned out? Was it a good Tour? We have thoughts. 

Welcome back to the Tour Daily! These are our daily Tour de France episodes, brought to you by the same crew as Spin Cycle. We're on the ground in France, Lille specifically, to take in the vibes, ask questions at press conferences, and generally get this bike race started. In this first Tour episode, Ronan, Jonny and Chris Marshall-Bell gather on a grassy field next to a bar to cap off what has been an inauspicious start to the 2025 Tour de France for Escape Collective. Nevertheless, they bring you the latest from the pre-Tour press conferences and Ronan has been wandering around sniffing out some tech truffles.

It's Tour de France time! This is the last regular episode of Spin Cycle before it turns into the Tour Daily. Caley, Jonny, and Dane run through the weekend's national championship stories and then dive into a preview of the upcoming Tour de France, with a heavy focus on a wild first week. We've got picks (Fantasy and otherwise), guesses, even some rampant speculation. This is Free Week at Escape Collective, so everybody gets access to After Dark this week. Today, we've got a look at Patrick Lefevere's reaction to our story about a rift in his team last week, an intense discussion of how much we'd pay for photos of his feet, plus member meetups in Lille, and a little tease of a story coming this weekend. 

Today on the Spin Cycle podcast, Caley, Dane, and Jonny discuss quel le fuq is going on in French cycling at the minute, buttering you up before we descend into the topic of whether monsieur moins sept is trying to worm his way back into cycling.We then have some transfer rumours to update you on and a weird doping story to finish things off.

In this episode of Spin Cycle, Caley Fretz, Jonny Long, and Dane Cash discuss the rising chaos at UAE, the UCI's new gear limits, and Pidcock going really fast.

Jonny Long, Dane Cash, and Kit Nicholson offer some kneejerk reactions to a single time trial at the Critérium du Dauphiné and ponder sponsorship activation opportunities for cosmetics brands in the latest episode of the Spin Cycle podcast.

Welcome back to Spin Cycle, everybody. This week, Caley, Dane, and Jonny bring you:Dave Brailsford is making a return to cycling after being shuffled from his day-to-day role at Man United, potentially focusing more on the cycling team. His return prompts discussion about Geraint Thomas's potential management role upon retirement, first reported by Escape Collective in March. The exact nature of Thomas's role is ill-defined, with speculation ranging from something like head sports director or director of racing, or perhaps stepping into a role providing human connection and emotional intelligence for the riders, given that he doesn't seem to relish internal politics.The Criterium du Dauphine is upon us, set to be a mano a mano a mano battle featuring Vingegaard, Pogacar, and Evenepoel in the same stage race for the first time this year. Jonas Vingegaard was spotted training with hairy legs and short socks.Netflix's "Unchained" series concludes, with the third and final season trailer released by Netflix France. The season is dropping really, really late on July 2nd, just before the Tour de France starts.Plus: A look at the Dauphine route, which is backloaded with difficult stages and has almost no flat days.

Welcome back to Spin Cycle. This week, the crew dissects a thrilling conclusion of the Giro d'Italia. Was it won by Simon Yates or lost by UAE Team Emirates? Perhaps somewhere in between? What is absolutely sure is the deployment of Wout van Aert via the Wout Signal was yet another example of why he's the rider you want on your Grand Tour team. Plus: meeting the pope, Mads Pedersen's new underwear, and what Tibaut Pinot got up to over the weekend. 

Head to Escapecollective.com/member to sign up today.Welcome back to Spin Cycle, where no news is too big and no joke too small. We're about halfway through the Giro, and what a Giro it's been. Caley, Jonny, and Kit take a moment to appreciate a Grand Tour without Pogačar in it, and then look ahead to the next one he'll be in. The Tour de France finish in Paris has changed, and it's way harder. Can Pogi win it? Should the classics men get excited? Plus, a one-night stand could land you in doping jail. Beware! 

The Giro d'Italia's mini Strade Bianche had everything: A winner everybody can hear for, a precocious young talent, GC crashes, dust galore.In this episode of Spin Cycle, Caley, Jonny, and Kit break down a spectacular weekend of racing, look back at some of our favorite Grand Tours stages of the modern era, downsize Big Jim to Medium Sized Jim, and wonder how UAE will handle yet another leadership question.
