Episode SummaryThis week on Home In Progress, Dan dedicates the whole show to bathroom remodels -- why they're trending, and how to think one through before spending anything. He covers the tub-or-shower decision, storage planning, lighting that stops working against you, upgrades worth baking in while walls are open, aging-in-place choices, and a full closing section on painting the bathroom right. A practical episode worth saving if a bathroom is anywhere on your horizon.In This Episode[00:00] -- Bathrooms Are Trending[02:15] -- Start With What Bugs You[05:04] -- Tubs or Showers First[07:45] -- Freestanding Tub Reality Check[10:43] -- Tub to Shower Conversion[13:41] -- Storage That Fits Life[16:15] -- Smart Storage Ideas[18:31] -- Bathroom Lighting Problems[19:25] -- Why Mirrors Make You Cringe[20:22] -- Fixing Harsh Shadows[21:43] -- Layered Lighting Basics[22:14] -- Mirror Task Lighting[23:56] -- Sconce Placement Tips[24:54] -- Shower and Night Lighting[26:02] -- Bulb Temperature Consistency[28:00] -- Remodel Upgrades to Add[30:44] -- Aging in Place Choices[33:52] -- Bathroom Paint Essentials[37:02] -- Paint Cure and Humidity[39:10] -- Prep and Tight Spaces[41:19] -- Ceilings and Caulk[43:05] -- Wrap Up and Store DealsBathrooms Are Trending [00:00]Bathroom remodels aren't overtaking kitchens -- kitchens are still the most popular project -- but bathrooms are closing the gap. They're smaller, usually less expensive, and more manageable. And the daily impact is bigger than most people give them credit for. If a kitchen remodel feels out of reach right now, a bathroom is worth serious consideration.Start With What Bugs You [02:15]Before looking at tile or faucets, walk through the bathroom you have and write down everything that bothers you. Not what you'd love to have -- what actually annoys you about the space right now. A lot of renovations look great but feel disappointing because they didn't solve the actual problems. New finishes don't fix a bad morning. Start with what the bathroom needs to fix, then work forward from there.Tubs or Showers First [05:04]The shower or tub is the biggest decision in any bathroom remodel and where serious money gets spent. Dan breaks it into two parts: what fits your life better (some people love a bath; others haven't taken one voluntarily in years), and what fits your existing bathroom layout. Getting swept up in a vision without looking honestly at the space is where projects get expensive.Freestanding Tub Reality Check [07:45]A freestanding soaking tub is a popular idea that can get complicated fast. Most existing bathrooms have an alcove setup -- tub against three walls, drain in place, plumbing at one end. Switching to a freestanding tub means relocating the drain, addressing the floor and walls after the old surround comes out, and making sure there's enough clearance around the tub for it to look intentional.The alternative worth knowing about: deeper alcove tubs, drop-in tubs, or soaking tubs designed to fit a traditional footprint. These can deliver the soaking experience without requiring a full redesign. Even replacing an older alcove tub with a newer one in the same footprint can be a meaningful gain.Tub to Shower Conversion [10:43]If baths aren't your thing, converting a tub surround to a walk-in shower is often a practical fit for what most bathrooms already have. Plumbing can often stay in roughly the same location, the footprint works, and the project tends to line up more naturally with the existing space than a freestanding tub would.One thing to stop and think about first: is this the only tub in the house? Families with young kids need one. Pet owners often do too. Future buyers may care. That doesn't mean you keep it -- just means the decision should be deliberate.Storage That Fits Life [13:41]Storage isn't the exciting part of a remodel, but it may be the biggest factor in whether a renovated bathroom still feels good two weeks after the job is done. Before choosing a vanity, go back to your list of annoyances and ask honestly whether storage is on it -- and whether it should be.The practical question isn't what vanity looks good. It's what the vanity needs to do. Drawers let you see what you have; deep cabinets swallow things. A vanity drawer with a built-in outlet keeps hair tools off the counter. Storage that matches how you actually live beats storage that just looks organized in the showroom.Smart Storage Ideas [16:15]If the footprint isn't changing, there are usually more options than it feels like. Going vertical -- tall cabinets, shelving from counter to ceiling, built-in storage above the toilet -- can add meaningful capacity without touching the floor plan. Recessed medicine cabinets don't have to look like the metal box from 1978; modern versions are framed, mirror-faced, and look like part of the room. And awkward spots -- a dead corner, a gap beside the vanity -- are worth a second look.Better storage organization inside existing space also counts: drawer organizers, pull-outs, a bottom drawer for towels or toilet paper. Build the answer in. Don't assume things will find a home after the remodel if they haven't found one yet.Bathroom Lighting [18:31]Bathroom lighting is often bad in ways people don't fully notice. One harsh overhead fixture, or a row of bulbs above the mirror, creates shadows on the face -- under the eyes, under the nose, under the chin -- that make people look older and more tired than they are. If you walk into your bathroom every morning and immediately want to look somewhere else, the lighting may be a bigger factor than you think.Why mirrors make you cringe [19:25] -- Most bathroom lighting is designed to illuminate the room, not the person at the mirror. A ceiling fixture in the middle of the room does the former. It doesn't do the latter well.Fixing harsh shadows [20:22] -- Light from both sides of the mirror is significantly better than light from above. Sconces on either side spread light evenly across the face, cut shadows, and make grooming more accurate. If side lighting isn't possible, a long horizontal fixture above the mirror is better than a single small bulb.Layered lighting [21:43] -- Good bathroom lighting usually comes from more than one source. General light -- ceiling fixture, recessed lights, or both -- makes the room usable. Task lighting at the mirror is where the real work gets done. One fixture can't do both jobs well.Mirror task lighting [22:14] -- The goal is light on your face, from roughly face level. That's what reduces shadows. A fixture above the mirror alone usually can't deliver that.Sconce placement [23:56] -- Height matters. Too low creates the campfire-flashlight effect. Too high brings the shadows back. Aim for face-level illumination, and let the person who needs the most help from the lighting make the call on placement.Shower and night lighting [24:54] -- A shower with walls that block the main room's light probably needs its own fixture. A dark shower feels less clean and less comfortable than it should. Night lighting is the thing people forget: a dimmer, toe-kick lighting, or a softer secondary source lets you use the bathroom at odd hours without switching on every bulb in the room.Bulb temperature consistency [26:02] -- Cool bulbs feel sterile; warm bulbs can make whites and skin tones look strange. A warm neutral bulb is a solid starting point for most bathrooms. More important than the specific temperature is keeping it consistent across all fixtures. Mismatched bulb temperatures can make the room feel off in a way that's hard to identify -- paint reads differently in different spots, tile can shift color. Sort out lighting before finalizing paint colors or any other choices sensitive to light.Remodel Upgrades to Add [28:00]When a bathroom is torn apart, some things are much easier to add than they'll ever be again. Worth at least pricing out:Heated floors -- bathroom square footage is small, and if the old floor is already coming up, now is the time to askVentilation -- a weak or struggling fan should be replaced now, not after it causes moisture damage to a freshly renovated roomOutlet placement -- if outlets are always in the wrong spot, fix it while walls are openShower niche -- easier to build in now than to add laterShower lighting -- while the walls are accessibleBlocking for grab bars -- you may not want them now, but blocking costs almost nothing during a remodel and makes installation easy whenever you doAging in Place Choices [30:44]If you plan to be in the home long-term, a remodel is a good moment to make choices that work better as you age. This doesn't have to look like a care facility. Options have improved considerably. A curbless shower can look modern. A wider shower entry feels more open. A shower bench can feel spa-like.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we delve into a range of fascinating advancements in the industry, each with significant implications for future patient care and drug development. At the recent American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2026 conference, Akeso's ivonescimab, a pioneering PD-1xVEGF bispecific antibody, demonstrated a 34% reduction in death risk when combined with chemotherapy for first-line lung cancer treatment. This marks a pivotal moment in cancer therapeutics, illustrating how bispecific antibodies can enhance treatment efficacy. The evolving landscape of cancer treatment continues to highlight the importance of these innovative approaches. Johnson & Johnson's Erleada has shown promising results in prostate cancer, achieving positive outcomes in its Phase 3 Proteus study. The trial emphasized the efficacy of Erleada when administered perioperatively to prostate cancer patients, indicating a shift towards more personalized and comprehensive care that incorporates targeted therapies before and after surgery. In another significant breakthrough, Lilly's Retemvo exhibited dramatic results in early-stage lung cancer with RET fusion-positive markers, reducing disease progression or death by 83% as adjuvant therapy. This underscores the critical role of molecularly targeted therapies for patients with specific genetic profiles, offering hope for improved survival outcomes. On the frontlines of infectious diseases, Shionogi's COVID-19 antiviral Xocova has received FDA approval as a post-exposure prophylactic. This milestone highlights the challenging yet dynamic landscape of antiviral drug development, offering a new tool in managing COVID-19 exposures after previous challenges in demonstrating effectiveness as a treatment. MannKind's inhaled insulin, Afrezza, has been approved for pediatric use. This approval could rejuvenate its market presence by providing a more convenient insulin delivery system aimed at improving adherence and glycemic control among younger patients. In oncology news, Pfizer's Talzenna combination therapy received broader FDA approval for castration-sensitive prostate cancer. This positions it as a competitive option against Johnson & Johnson's PARP inhibitor combination therapy. Additionally, AstraZeneca's Imfinzi and Imjudo combination showed promise in early-stage liver cancer by reducing disease progression risks by 30%, broadening immunotherapy applications. The market dynamics are also shifting with significant strategic movements like Eli Lilly's acquisition of Kelonia Therapeutics for $3.2 billion. This decision is driven by promising in vivo CAR-T data demonstrating unprecedented response rates and reflects the increasing importance of innovative CAR-T therapies in oncology. Eli Lilly's Kelonia Therapeutics' cell therapy showcased an impressive 100% response rate in a Phase 1 trial for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. This CAR-T therapy targets the BCMA antigen and could revolutionize treatment paradigms by offering more effective responses. Meanwhile, Pfizer's transformative research on RAS inhibitors holds potential to redefine treatment paradigms in pancreatic cancer—a notoriously difficult-to-treat type due to its complex biology. Revolution Medicines aims to maintain its leadership within this space amidst growing competition. Revolution Medicines also reported compelling results with their KRAS inhibitor, which nearly doubles survival rates for metastatic pancreatic cancer patients harboring KRAS mutations. Given the historically poor prognosis associated with pancreatic cancer, these findings represent a significant advancement in managing this aggressive type. In ovarian cancer research, Gilead's TUB-040 demonstrated a 61% tumor response rate for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer in a Phase 1 trial. This highlights the potential of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) to overcome resistance mechanisms and improve outcomes in difficult-to-treat cancers. Regulatory updates include Johnson & Johnson receiving FDA label expansion for Tremfya to inhibit structural joint damage in active psoriatic arthritis patients. This expansion provides broader treatment options for patients suffering from debilitating conditions by reinforcing the role of IL-23 inhibitors in autoimmune disease management. Strategic partnerships are also shaping drug development's future landscape. Notably, Servier's acquisition of Edgewise Therapeutics' muscular dystrophy unit underscores growing focus on rare diseases and neuromuscular disorders. Eli Lilly's agreements with Haisco Pharmaceutical and Hanmi Pharm reflect ongoing R&D investments aimed at expanding therapeutic portfolios across various indications. These developments illustrate a broader trend toward personalized medicine and targeted therapies that enhance treatment efficacy by leveraging specific genetic or molecular characteristics. Despite advancements, challenges remain as exemplified by Oculis' OCS-01 failing Phase 3 trials for diabetic macular edema—highlighting inherent risks in drug development. Overall, these updates underscore significant scientific progress and promise improvements in patient outcomes through novel therapeutic approaches and collaborative efforts within this vibrant industry landscape.Support the show

Tub thumpin' and gum bumpin' with Gregory Moore! . . . YOU DON'T KNOW MOJACK is a podcast dedicated to exploring the entire SST catalogue, in order, from start to finish. During the podcast we will discuss all the releases that are part of our core DNA, as well as many lesser-known releases that deserve a second chance, or releases that we are discovering for the very first time (we actually don't know Mojack!). First and foremost we are fans, and acknowledge that we are not perfect and don't know everything – sometimes the discussion is more about a time, place, feeling, personal experience or random tangents, and less about the facts (but we will try to get to the facts too).

Barry, Abigail, and special guest Kim Nyborg discuss Fruitcakes by Jimmy Buffett and sample Sour Lemon Lime, Sour Cranberry, and Sour Cherry Pineapple from Edmund's Oast Brewing Co. in Charleston, South Carolina.Barry and Kim both have key memories involving Why Don't We Get Drunk; it was the song that really made Barry understand the extent of Buffett's influence in Florida, and it was the first song Kim ever remembers singing!Abigail's first memories of Jimmy Buffett were of The Parakeet Album - Songs of Jimmy Buffett, a collection of family-friendly Buffett songs sung by students at the W.O. Smith Music School in Nashville, Tennessee.Abigail shouted out the backup singers in Jimmy's Coral Reefer Band, known as the Reeferettes. Although Nicolette Larson was never an official member of the Coral Reefer Band, she appeared on three Buffett albums (including Fruitcakes!) and is considered an honorary Coral Reefer. We played a snippet of her most famous song, Lotta Love. We've previously spoken about Nicolette Larson in the context of her guest appearance in The Creature From the Tub from Andrew Gold's Halloween Howls: Fun and Scary Music; in fact, she and Gold were briefly engaged in the early 1980s, over a decade before the release of Halloween Howls! Listen to our review of Halloween Howls, Halloween Hops (Andrew Gold and Aardwolf Brewing).Harpoon Brewery in Boston, Massachusetts, seems to have done the most collaborating with Dunkin' Donuts over the years. However, Abigail's claim of donut-chain-branded lube has been debunked by Snopes.Buffett covered The Kinks' Sunny Afternoon, which shares with Taxman by The Beatles and Exile on Main St. by The Rolling Stones a common theme in 60s and 70s British rock: the exorbitant taxes musicians faced in the UK, leading many to become “tax exiles.”Buffett covered She's Got You, originally written (as He's Got You) by Hank Cochran and made famous by Patsy Cline. Buffett paid tribute to both versions by switching between different gendered pronouns throughout the song.Up next… I've Got My Own Album to Do by Ronnie WoodJingles are by our friend Pete Coe.Visit Anosmia Awareness for more information on Barry's condition.Follow Barry or Abigail on Untappd to see what we're drinking when we're not on mic!Leave us a rating or a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | YouTube | Substack | Website | Email us | Virtual Jukebox | Beer Media Group

IN his sermon, Philip Snell takes a break from the series on Romans and talks about a lesser known holiday, known as Tu B'Shevat. He explains why this particular day is sometimes referred to as the "Birthday of the Trees," and more importantly, about the significance of trees, plants, and their fruit.

He explains why this particular day is sometimes referred to as the "Birthday of the Trees," and more importantly, about the significance of trees, plants, and their fruit.

This year’s Tu B’Shvat is turning out to be one of the busiest in the past ten years. Thousands of people took part in tree-planting activities over the weekend and today to mark Tu B’Shvat and Keren Kayemet L’israel, the KKL or JNF, has provided hundreds of thousands of seedlings to the public to plant. Noa Tal, head of the planning division at KKL, told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that there was an outpouring of participation to plant trees and reconnect with the land, especially after two years of war.(photo: George Nubiminski/KKL)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this edition, Rabbi Dobrusin discusses the holiday of Tu B'shvat, the "New Year of the Trees", sand two different blessings said on the occasion of seeing beautiful trees. 

This episode originally aired on February 10, 2025 (but it's just as relevant today!) Enjoy the replay as we begin Tu B'Shevat tonight.--Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and if you're anything like me, Tu B'Shevat is kind of a holiday you acknowledge, but maybe gloss over on a deeper level. This year, I am putting a stop to it.Yehudit Refson (⁠@the_jerusalem_farmhouse⁠) is the director of grounds, arts and renovations at Neve Yerushalayim. She is an amazing person who has totally transformed Neve's campus in the time since she moved over there. We actually did an ⁠interview⁠ nearly four years ago for the Chai on Life website which I am linking in the show notes where you can learn more about how and why she got into the entire gardening journey and how she transformed the earth into a space that was beautiful already, but now is bursting with plant and animal life.Now, the girls at Neve don't just learn Torah inside the classroom, they really enhance their learning outside of it. Instead of just learning about shemitta, they're living it with the plants around them. On Rosh Hashanah, they're touching actual pomegranates and other simanim from their own garden. They're doing tashlich in their own pond. They plant the arba minim for Sukkot. It's really a full interactive experience that undoubtedly leaves you with so much more than you would get just from hearing about these things.In our conversation, we go even deeper:-She speaks about the land's connection and parallels to women-The root word of land in Hebrew, adamah, and how the word itself shows our connection to the earth-We talk about the power of being in nature in regards to our five senses and the impact on our mental health as a result-We go deep into Shevat as I referenced and how the energy of this time is all about renewal-At the end, we discuss practical ways to live a cleaner, greener life and how to just jump into gardeningI left our conversation feeling really excited and invigorated to get started with something when it comes to gardening and actually being with the earth and I have a feeling you may feel the same way afterward. I love this episode so much and can't wait for you to hear it.Resources:⁠How to make a Tu B'Shevat Seder⁠ via Aish.comFollow ⁠@the_jerusalem_farmhouse⁠ on Instagram

Note: this podcast was recorded LIVE for the patrons of Padres Hot Tub literally minutes after the announcement of the signing of Michael King, on the PHT Discord. You can be part of the fun (which included a hint on the platform hours in advance that a move was coming) and future live broadcasts by supporting our independent production at patreon.com/padreshottubON THE SHOW: Craig Elsten and Chris Reed are joined by a jubilant and suddenly-gathered group of PHT patrons to discuss the announcement that staff ace Michael King is coming back to the club on a new free agent deal! The contract includes a 12M signing bonus, 5M salary for 2026, and player options at 28M and 30M for 2027 and 2028, with a 5M buyout if King opts out the first season. Needless to say, this sparks discussion about the (erroneous?) reporting that the Padres didn't have money to spend, the idea of a King-Pivetta-Musgrove top of the rotation, and the idea that AJ Preller may now have strategic flexibility to make a trade if he has to. Recorded live just after 8pm PST on 12/18/25 live for our patrons on our PHT Discord Group Therapy stage!

Tracy Can't Keep the Tub?! 08/05/25

This is part of a series on Billionaire Pedophiles. Robert MillerCanadian Billionaire Robert Miller was a cross between Peter Nygard and Jeffrey Epstein. Like Epstein he knew both Les Wexner and the Bronfman crime family. Robert Miller is a wealthy pedophile, he amassed billions of dollar with his company Future Electronics which was sold last year to Taiwan for 3.8Bn. Whet exactly did he do? This disgusting predator arranged to have threesomes with high school girls or younger. His first victim starting 1982 was just 11 years old. Robert always had unprotected sex. His system evolved over time. At first he would pay a pimp, Raymond Poulet to act as his middle man and recruit young girls. They would bring them to a hotel usually the Intercontinental Hotel a luxury hotel in Montreal, or the Queen Elizabeth hotel. Once at the hotel they would be wine and dined then Poulet would pass them off to Miller who was only known to the girls as Bob. Also working for Miller via Future Electronics, was Sam Joseph Abrams. Sam Abrams was a kind of extra-curricular activities secretary and thus worked closely with Poulet. The girls only knew him as Joseph. A nother man actig in this role was Helmut Lippmann, who like Abrams, was labeled a Vice President at Future Electronics.Miller would instruct them to take a bath, usually he would undress and join them washing them himself and engaging in foreplay. From there he would move things into the bed room where he had unprotected sex and or used sex toys. Whenever possible there would be two girls. Similar to Epstein he paid his victims albeit a much higher rate of 1500 Canadian. If they pulled out before sex he might give them $700. The craziest thing is no one told the hotel staff or police. Or if they did it never went anywhere. Three individuals are most responsible for eventually bringing down Miller's network. John Weslake a former cop turned P.I. Donna Loupret the director of security at the Intercontinental Hotel and Robert's Miller's Ex-Wife. It was his Ex-Wife who first tipped off Westlake. Donna Loupret noticed the odd behavior of Robert Miller. He always rented the same room on the 25th floor, room 2520. He had it renovated on his own dime. He demanded they install a large tub in the bathroom and they did. It was called the F**k-Tub. He would only come in the day and never stay the night. Also the hotel was just a 15 minute drive from where he lived. Then there were the girls who looked about 14 to 16 year old that were always in and out of his room. Now they didn't enter with him or leave with him, but they were going to the 25th floor, always while he was there. He targeted small girls with dark hair.Increasingly, Miller would rely less on the pimp and more on gettnig the girls to recruit other girls and like Epstein he offered them a bonus to do so. I am happy to report that Raymond Poulet was arrested July 2025. After Donna questioned Miller once on the phone, Miller moved his operations into a more controlled environment. He bought two houses across the street from one another. His own home where he lived he purchased from Charles Bronfman the co-founder of Birthright Israel and chairman of the UJC and co-chair of Seagrams Liquor which got its start via organized crime selling alcohol labeled as “medicine” to get around prohibition laws. He and his brother made a tender offer via Seagrams, to Saint Joe's Mineral corporation. “Court papers identified the three Panamanian corporations as Transatlantic Financial Company S.A., Nayarit Investments S.A. and Finvest Panama. They were named by the bank as having purchased 1,055 stock options in St. Joe on March 10, a day before the Seagram bid for the company. The bank also named Finvest Geneva as having purchased 3,000 shares of St. Joe the day of the merger announcement. The S.E.C. said that Mr. Tome had placed both orders through the Swiss bank.” Also capitalizing on insider trading was Warren Eisenstein who was give a loan to buy the stock by his childhood friend, then working at Bear Sterns, Jeffrey Epstein.Charles Bronfman's neices Clare and Sara pumped in $100,000, 000 in to a sex cult run by Keith Raniere. It was so debaucherous that thye were branding women the way one brands a cow witha hot poker. And of course the Bronfman's are hardore Zionists and helped finance other close associates of Epstein like Ehud Barak. This is a constant thing with these people. More on Epstein hereFormer cop, John Westlake and his partner set up surveillance via a stake out, on Robert Miller and were shocked by what they saw. For 21 days, they observed a parade of young girls going in and out of the house at 380 Olivier Ave. in Westmount, often exiting with hockey bags.What was going on? Well Miller would have the girls brought usually by taxi to house that he had prepared. In the basement the would be clothing from Victoria Secret, CDs Jewlery and other goodies a young girl might fancy. They were allowed to fill up one hockey bag full of products as much as they could carry. Upstaires they would be given a bath and sometimes told to shave. After sex or being assaulted with sex toys, the girls would be given an evelope with $1500 to $4000. Miller had them color coded with little stamps, Gold, Orange, Purple, that colorlated with the money inside. A judge ordered these a pretrial seizure of these two houses from Miller in November of 2024.Westlake and his partner were approached by Miller's goons. Working for “National Criminal Investigation Service” which was just a Miller security company, Terence Corcoran and an ex-police officer named Stephen Roberts approached Westlake asking him to tell them what he knew. Next they tried to buy him off, offering $300k to give them what he had and to back off the case. With Helmut Lippmann, Sam Joseph Abrams, Raymond Poulet, Stephen Roberts, and Terence Corcoran all working and covering up for Robert Miller what we have here is a conspiracy.Think about this. A billionaire after createing a custom renovated hotel room, purchased homes and used employees including an ex-cop and a pimp, to target teenagers and adolesants for sexual exploitation. All these men acted together for years, over a decade, to systematically target girls for child prostitution.There was no blackmail. There was no spying. These were just sick f***s who did this because this is what these people are into. Rather than taking the brine Westlake went to the police. But it was Radio Canada not the cops that uncovered that Miller posed as an American businessman named “Bob Adams” who just fequently visited Montreal. It took pressure form the media to get any movement on this case. The police would raide Future Electronics and had a warrant (which is sealed) to target NCIS, National Criminal Investigation Service, which had its office on the Future Electronics property. How much bigger was this operation really? We probably are not going to ever know. Miller now 83 has Parkingson's disease. I hate to cheer for parkinson's disease but at least that serves as SOME type of punishment for for serial raping little kids for decades. Like Nygard, his punishment comes only at the end with Miller in his 80s, after engaging in a lifetime of rape.There is a class action lawsuit with 50 plantiffs and other lawsuits again Miller and his co-conspirators. Smoe have been tossed because Miller is too sick(rich) to endure them. But how does this happen? how in the world would hotel employees not pick up on what was going on immediately? Why were the police so slow to act? It is quite similar to what Nygard was doing in Winnipeg around the same time.We will be going over that case and more in this series on Billionaire Pedophiles. I want to stress this that what Epstein was doing was entering a pre-existing nexus of rich perverts. He did not groom or create the Johns. He provided for a market that already had an large appitite for child abuse and prostitution. This is a cultural problem. Of course people use blackmail and bribery. In this climate where women and men (as you will see in the Mike Jefferies case) are seen commercial sex products, it is easy. Consider signing up it is only $6 and some of these will be paywalled. It is not something I want to do to but I have to. If you are in media and want to do an interview on Miller, Epstein or any of these subjects, contact me through substack. This is a public episode.
