Episode 87: The Epstein Files with Patrick Blanchfield (Patreon)

2025's most unexpected scandal involves facts that have been known for years and exactly zero new information. And yet it has managed to keep consummate bullshitter Donald Trump seemingly flatfooted. In this episode, Patrick Blanchfield (co-host of Ordinary Unhappiness) joins Moira and Adrian to talk about the late Jeffrey Epstein, his files, the coverup, Trump and the return of the not-at-all repressed. Their conversation touches on the gender politics of revelation, conspiracies real and imagined, blood libel, and the long shadow of #MeToo.

Lots and lots of trigger warnings obviously!
