Just listened to this and I owe you an apology Darryl. I don’t especially care for Tucker Carlson and recently cancelled my paid subscription based on a kneejerk assumption I understood your personal politics. I’m ashamed to have fallen into the polarization that is our culture’s single most deadly flaw right now. It was sickeningly easy to shove aside all the years I’ve respected you and your work. We don’t always agree and sometimes I do question your tone. But you have constantly asked interesting questions and come to balanced, humane insights chasing the answers. Not for the first time you’ve kicked open a door to knowing myself better. You’re a good man Darryl Cooper. Re-sub’d

Jeff, you should keep that same energy with Tucker Carlson. The guy is telling a lot of truth right now, and your status as a tribal political casual is leaving you in the dark. I used to be the same way, voted dem most of my life until I realized how insanely ignorant I was. But get tf out of your bubble and you'll learn a lot. To be clear, I don't consider myself a Republican, either. The system is two wings of the same bird, and the media on both sides lies constantly because they're beholden to money. Keep yourself open, you're on the right path to more clearly understanding the world we live in.

Pretty long winded way to say “pray the gay away” works.

It does kind of start abruptly, mid-conversation, is that intended?

Brunel supposedly founded 1 Mother Modeling in Kiev in 2013, and I’ve heard it speculated that not only was Kolomoisky an investor, but that they were trafficking women to Hunter Biden - the women in the pornographic videos on his laptop. I belive I heard this from Gonzalo Lira on Ryan’s show. Is there any evidence on this?

Per Twitter, there was an editing issue that Darryl is fixing before re-uploading.

The reason anti-zionsim gets conflated with antisemitism is because they intentionally make the conflation. And this behavior pre-dates Zionism. The reason it doesn't change is because of a lack of self reflection by that same group. Everyone else is supposed to tip toe around everything and profusely over explain themselves to avoid these ridiculous accusations. Enough is enough. Dawson is the man and what happened to him certainly doesn't do anything to help the narrative around that groups "control".

Starting with Gaza is appropriate. It's hard to care about any other issue when that's going on.

Hi Darryl, as you mentioned already multiple times (including the show notes of this exact episode) you are no friend of libertarianism. Now that you have your regular show with Scott Horton, apparently a libertarian, will you ever challenge him (or anyone else from this circle) about his ideology?

Ryan must’ve interrupted at least 100 times during this interview. Very grating and hard to listen to. Thank you though Darryl, lots of good info

Have to agree. This one was all over the place. Thought they were going detailed on a more concrete theory and they're scattering all over North America from Seagrams, to Montreal, to Bob Kraft to other cults... In fact, MM and this guy seem to disagree on whether or not Epstein is connected to US intelligence, but nothing is fleshed out.

I've made this joke before but I really do think in a few years there will be a Zionist on Piers Morgan saying that the Mossad has the "most moral pedophile blackmail rings in the world" and why are we only focusing on theirs.

Looking forward to this as always, but is it meant to sound like it starts mid-conversation? It almost seems like the first part was cut off. I recall seeing somewhere, maybe on X, that it was a 3-hour discussion.
