00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.040
<v Speaker 1>What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the

2
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Epstein Chronicles. In this episode, we're going to pick up

3
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:09.320
<v Speaker 1>where he left off with Kathy Rumler and her conversation

4
00:00:09.759 --> 00:00:14.599
<v Speaker 1>with Congress Question mister Biggs, Miss Rumler. To ensure the

5
00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:16.839
<v Speaker 1>record is clear, I want to pivot briefly to a

6
00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:20.399
<v Speaker 1>topic that we discussed during the previous hour. I believe

7
00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:22.879
<v Speaker 1>that you were asked about clients that Epstein referred to you.

8
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:26.399
<v Speaker 1>Is that right? Answer? Yes, question, and there was an

9
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:29.079
<v Speaker 1>individual client that you did not want to provide the

10
00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>name for correct answer. That's a consideration just for my

11
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:36.159
<v Speaker 1>ethical obligation and given that it has nothing to do

12
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:39.320
<v Speaker 1>with anything I think that you're interested in. I just

13
00:00:39.359 --> 00:00:42.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't feel like it was appropriate to say the person's name. Question,

14
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:45.719
<v Speaker 1>and you answered my next question to be clear, this

15
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:49.079
<v Speaker 1>individual has nothing to do with the committee's investigation inter

16
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:52.719
<v Speaker 1>sexual misconduct and trafficking conducted by mister Epstein and Miss

17
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:56.439
<v Speaker 1>Maxwell answer, that's correct. This is an accounting This is

18
00:00:56.439 --> 00:00:59.280
<v Speaker 1>an accounting fraud case that had nothing to do with

19
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>mister Epstein. Whatsoever? Question? Has the individual ever been identified

20
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:06.159
<v Speaker 1>as a person of interest by this committee or the

21
00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:11.519
<v Speaker 1>Epstein files? Transparency Act. Answer, no question, mister Grant. I

22
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:13.680
<v Speaker 1>want to turn gears a little bit. I know that

23
00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:16.599
<v Speaker 1>you've mentioned the gifts you received in your opening statement today,

24
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:19.560
<v Speaker 1>and I know in previous hours it's loosely been brought up.

25
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:21.439
<v Speaker 1>But just to make sure that we have a clear

26
00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:24.239
<v Speaker 1>record and accounting of the gifts, I'm going to go

27
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:26.760
<v Speaker 1>through a lot of them, starting with my first question

28
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:29.519
<v Speaker 1>being did mister Epstein give you gifts over the course

29
00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:33.879
<v Speaker 1>of the relationship? Answer? Yes, he did. Question and what

30
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:39.319
<v Speaker 1>was when did you receive the first gift from mister Epstein? Answer? Oh, gosh,

31
00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:42.200
<v Speaker 1>I believe it was when I was flying to Geneva

32
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:45.560
<v Speaker 1>for my first meeting with the Rothschild Bank, and he, really,

33
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.680
<v Speaker 1>without my knowledge, you know, upgraded my flight. I learned

34
00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>that I had been upgraded, you know, when I went

35
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:52.680
<v Speaker 1>when I went to board the flight, they gave me

36
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:55.920
<v Speaker 1>a different boarding pass. Question and this was an upgrade

37
00:01:55.959 --> 00:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>to first class? Answer it was from business to first class? Yes,

38
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:02.719
<v Speaker 1>Ques And what would you say is the biggest, most lavish,

39
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:06.879
<v Speaker 1>most expensive gift that mister Epstein provided you? Answer? The

40
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:08.919
<v Speaker 1>most lavish gift that he tried to give me. I

41
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:11.199
<v Speaker 1>did not accept. I guess it's called a jet card,

42
00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:14.159
<v Speaker 1>but it's essentially if you can imagine like if you

43
00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:17.120
<v Speaker 1>give someone like a Starbucks card, this is a card

44
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:20.120
<v Speaker 1>that you can use to charter a plane. And it

45
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:22.360
<v Speaker 1>was the face value of it. I mean, there wasn't

46
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:24.520
<v Speaker 1>like a physical card, but it was like, oh, I'm

47
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:27.639
<v Speaker 1>giving you this jet card. The phase value is fifty thousand.

48
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:31.159
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was excessive, and I don't charter a

49
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:33.639
<v Speaker 1>private planes, and it was nothing that I was ever

50
00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:37.240
<v Speaker 1>going to do, you know, for myself, and I, you know,

51
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:40.919
<v Speaker 1>just declined it. Question and do you know when he

52
00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:44.120
<v Speaker 1>would have tried to provide you this jet card? Answer? Yeah,

53
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:47.560
<v Speaker 1>that was ostensibly a birthday gift for my birthday in

54
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:51.439
<v Speaker 1>April of twenty nineteen. Question. Thank you for that. So,

55
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:55.800
<v Speaker 1>over the course of the committee's investigation, we've identified numerous

56
00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:00.199
<v Speaker 1>other gifts. I will stipulate to you that I'm using

57
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:03.680
<v Speaker 1>the term gifts pretty broadly. Answer. Okay, question, So the

58
00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:05.879
<v Speaker 1>first one I would like to talk about is mister

59
00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Epstein providing you flowers? On how many occasions in total

60
00:03:09.719 --> 00:03:13.599
<v Speaker 1>did mister Epstein, either personally or through his employees or

61
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:17.360
<v Speaker 1>agents provide you flowers to the best of your recollection. Answer,

62
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:19.319
<v Speaker 1>to the best of my recollection, it was only once,

63
00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:22.759
<v Speaker 1>but it's possible that it was other times. My memory

64
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:24.960
<v Speaker 1>is that he sent me flowers once when I was sick,

65
00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:28.159
<v Speaker 1>along with chicken soup, which is ironic because I don't

66
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.360
<v Speaker 1>eat chicken, and so you know, the chicken soup didn't

67
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:34.159
<v Speaker 1>get eaten. Question and did mister Epstein ever pay for

68
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:37.360
<v Speaker 1>your facials at Bliss Soho? Answer? Not that I remember,

69
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:41.479
<v Speaker 1>but it's certainly possible. Question, did mister Epstein provider pay

70
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:45.439
<v Speaker 1>for a massage for yourself at the Mandarin Oriental? This

71
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:47.520
<v Speaker 1>would have been both of these would have been for

72
00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Valentine's Day around Valentine's Day in twenty sixteen. Answer My

73
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:54.599
<v Speaker 1>memory was that it was a SPA Day gift, was

74
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:56.560
<v Speaker 1>actually a holiday gift, so it was more of a

75
00:03:56.639 --> 00:03:59.599
<v Speaker 1>Christmas gift that didn't get used or whatever. And my

76
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:03.400
<v Speaker 1>memory was it was actually the Peninsula Spaw, not the Mandarin,

77
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:05.719
<v Speaker 1>But again it was ten years ago, so I'm not

78
00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:09.280
<v Speaker 1>exactly sure. Question did mister Epstein ever pay for a

79
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:12.759
<v Speaker 1>hair of blowout or haircut Afachai salon for you honor

80
00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:16.759
<v Speaker 1>around Valentine's Day in twenty sixteen? Answer. I recall that

81
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:19.480
<v Speaker 1>he paid or insisted on paying for a haircut or

82
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.319
<v Speaker 1>a blowout for both me and our shared client, Ariande

83
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:26.480
<v Speaker 1>or Ofthchild. It probably was on that occasion. Question did

84
00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:29.079
<v Speaker 1>you find it strange or unusual you were getting gifts

85
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:33.199
<v Speaker 1>honor around Valentine's Day from mister Epstein? Answer again, I

86
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:37.199
<v Speaker 1>don't believe that these were Valentine's gifts. Question we can

87
00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:40.040
<v Speaker 1>go through the rigamarole of putting more documents in front

88
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:42.560
<v Speaker 1>of you, but I will stipulate to you that the

89
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:45.720
<v Speaker 1>email that I'm referring to you is from February twelfth,

90
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:50.639
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen. Question okay, is in Valentine's Day on February fourteenth?

91
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:54.279
<v Speaker 1>Question yes? Answer okay. Question That's why I said on

92
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:57.959
<v Speaker 1>or around Valentine's Day? Answer yeah, I mean I don't

93
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.519
<v Speaker 1>remember it being a thing that he would like send

94
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:03.360
<v Speaker 1>me Valentine's gifts. He definitely would send me a gift

95
00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:05.560
<v Speaker 1>on my birthday, and he was, you know, he was

96
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:09.879
<v Speaker 1>a pretty prolific gift giver. Question and sticking specifically to

97
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:13.000
<v Speaker 1>the Fachai salon on how many occasions did you get

98
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:17.639
<v Speaker 1>your hair done, cut, blow dried, etc. At Fakai salon. Answer, gosh,

99
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:20.959
<v Speaker 1>the typical cadence for a women's haircut like once every

100
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:23.839
<v Speaker 1>like ten weeks or so. But you know, the Secai

101
00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:27.199
<v Speaker 1>salon closed at some point. I don't remember exactly when,

102
00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:29.839
<v Speaker 1>but many years ago it closed, and the building that

103
00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:32.720
<v Speaker 1>it was in, the Henry Bendall Building in New York City,

104
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:35.680
<v Speaker 1>the whole got hit with the retail sector turned down

105
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:38.319
<v Speaker 1>and the whole building shut down. So I couldn't tell you.

106
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:41.639
<v Speaker 1>But what I can tell you is that I paid

107
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:44.399
<v Speaker 1>for the vast majority of my haircuts and continue to

108
00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>as an adult woman, I'm pretty capable of paying for

109
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:50.399
<v Speaker 1>my own hair question. Are you aware of how many

110
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:53.279
<v Speaker 1>times mister Epstein would have paid for your hair services

111
00:05:53.480 --> 00:05:56.639
<v Speaker 1>at Fachai salon? Answer? I have no idea, but it

112
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:00.600
<v Speaker 1>was probably on you know, one or two occasions. During

113
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:03.959
<v Speaker 1>these occasions, were the services provided by a Frederick Focai

114
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:08.279
<v Speaker 1>himself or other associates at the salon? Answer? Oh, other associates.

115
00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:11.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, Frederick Focai is like a franchise, and there

116
00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:14.839
<v Speaker 1>were multiple Frederick Facai salons in New York City and

117
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:17.759
<v Speaker 1>I think elsewhere actually, Like so you know, it's like

118
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:21.439
<v Speaker 1>Vidal Sason and so I've never met Frederick Focai or

119
00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't recognize them if you walked in here. Question

120
00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:27.360
<v Speaker 1>So to be clear, you've never been introduced to Frederick

121
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Fokai by mister Epstein or anyone else. Answer no. Question.

122
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:33.959
<v Speaker 1>Are you aware of mister Epstein trying to provide you

123
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:38.000
<v Speaker 1>a massage at Urban Detoks in New York on March

124
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:41.199
<v Speaker 1>of twenty sixteen? Answer that does not ring any bells.

125
00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:44.279
<v Speaker 1>Question are you aware of mister Epstein paying for a

126
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.959
<v Speaker 1>spa day at the Four Seasons in DC for you?

127
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:49.360
<v Speaker 1>And this also would have been this would have been

128
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:53.519
<v Speaker 1>August of twenty sixteen? Answer I do remember that, yes.

129
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:56.959
<v Speaker 1>Question And what exactly did you get done at the

130
00:06:56.959 --> 00:07:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Four Seasons? Answer? So, I believe I have the time

131
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.120
<v Speaker 1>frame right that it was either before or after I

132
00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:05.519
<v Speaker 1>was either about to start, or it was after I

133
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:08.560
<v Speaker 1>had finished a big trial and trials or stressful things.

134
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:11.360
<v Speaker 1>And so he was, you know, again, being nice by

135
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.839
<v Speaker 1>saying you should go get a massage you seem stressed out,

136
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:18.360
<v Speaker 1>which I'm sure I was. Question And did mister Epstein

137
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:22.040
<v Speaker 1>in fact pay for the massage at the Four Seasons? Answer?

138
00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:23.920
<v Speaker 1>I believe that he had his assistant, you know, call

139
00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:26.480
<v Speaker 1>and say, you know, please book. She either made the

140
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:29.040
<v Speaker 1>appointment for me or I made the appointment and she

141
00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:31.000
<v Speaker 1>called and said it should be you know, paid for

142
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:34.560
<v Speaker 1>on this credit card. Question and you're aware on how

143
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:38.360
<v Speaker 1>many occasions in total mister Epstein paid for massages for you? Answer?

144
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:40.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but it would have been. You've probably

145
00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:43.439
<v Speaker 1>just identified the two occasions in which he gave me

146
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.959
<v Speaker 1>as gifts. A visit to a spa, the one occasion

147
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:49.519
<v Speaker 1>at the Four Seasons, and one occasion I thought it

148
00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:52.240
<v Speaker 1>was the Peninsula, but maybe it was the Mandarin Oriental.

149
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:56.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember, miss Tolan. Question, seeing as the nature

150
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:59.680
<v Speaker 1>of the gifts we've covered so far, flowers, spa appointments

151
00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>and massages, did you ever interpret these gifts to be

152
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:07.839
<v Speaker 1>a romantic gesture or a flirtatious gesture from mister Epstein. Answer? No,

153
00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I did not interpret it that way at all. Question well,

154
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:13.879
<v Speaker 1>how did you answer? Well? Again, the haircuts. You know,

155
00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:16.600
<v Speaker 1>the haircut was something that he insisted on, you know,

156
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:19.560
<v Speaker 1>doing for both me and our shared client. He was

157
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:22.680
<v Speaker 1>obviously an extremely wealthy person and it was his way,

158
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:25.079
<v Speaker 1>it seemed to me to be his way of maintaining

159
00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:28.120
<v Speaker 1>relationships with people, and by that I mean, you know,

160
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:33.360
<v Speaker 1>professional relationships and in business, particularly in professional services, one

161
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:35.559
<v Speaker 1>thing that happens all the time, but not for me

162
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:38.720
<v Speaker 1>because I don't golf. But you know, business colleagues or

163
00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:42.080
<v Speaker 1>clients or other associates will invite people to play golf

164
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:45.159
<v Speaker 1>at their private country club and there are guest fees,

165
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:47.600
<v Speaker 1>and those guest fees can run, you know, up to

166
00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:50.879
<v Speaker 1>one thousand dollars. I didn't golf, you know, I don't

167
00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:53.559
<v Speaker 1>like really go to like the Knicks games, And so

168
00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:56.559
<v Speaker 1>I think he interpreted it as I'm a female professional,

169
00:08:56.759 --> 00:08:59.279
<v Speaker 1>and I had quite a stressful job, and I was

170
00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:01.720
<v Speaker 1>traveling all the time, and you know that's the thing

171
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:04.600
<v Speaker 1>that you give to a female professional, you give her

172
00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:07.639
<v Speaker 1>a spa day. That's how I took it. Questions, so

173
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:11.159
<v Speaker 1>they didn't strike you as odd or concerning. Answer, No question, okay,

174
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:14.960
<v Speaker 1>mister Grant. And you're aware that mister Epstein paying for

175
00:09:15.039 --> 00:09:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the glam squad to come to your New York apartment

176
00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:20.399
<v Speaker 1>for hair and makeup. Answer. I have a vague recollection

177
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:22.679
<v Speaker 1>of something like that, but I didn't. I don't believe

178
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:25.080
<v Speaker 1>it ever happened. I know that the Glam Squad is

179
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:28.159
<v Speaker 1>basically it's sort of like task Rabbit, where you know,

180
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I think there's an app and you can call and

181
00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:32.600
<v Speaker 1>have them like come to your house and do your makeup.

182
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:35.639
<v Speaker 1>But I've only had my makeup done once, and I

183
00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:38.639
<v Speaker 1>remember it because I thought it looked weird and it

184
00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:41.919
<v Speaker 1>was actually before a stay dinner. Question. You've mentioned that

185
00:09:42.120 --> 00:09:44.799
<v Speaker 1>your one first class trip that mister Epstein provided to

186
00:09:44.840 --> 00:09:47.799
<v Speaker 1>you going to Geneva. Were there any other trips which

187
00:09:47.799 --> 00:09:51.600
<v Speaker 1>mister Epstein paid for an upgrade to first class outright,

188
00:09:51.639 --> 00:09:53.960
<v Speaker 1>booked you a first class ticket or bought you a

189
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:57.519
<v Speaker 1>train ticket. Answer? There may have been one other occasion

190
00:09:57.759 --> 00:09:59.879
<v Speaker 1>in which I was traveling to Geneva that he asked

191
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:04.039
<v Speaker 1>executive assistant. Again, that's where the Rothchild's bank was, and

192
00:10:04.080 --> 00:10:06.440
<v Speaker 1>he asked his assistant to book for me. And you know,

193
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:08.879
<v Speaker 1>and I said, you don't really need to do that.

194
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:12.440
<v Speaker 1>If I'm remembering this right. On one occasion, I was

195
00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:15.639
<v Speaker 1>going to travel to Geneva around the Christmas holiday, and

196
00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:17.720
<v Speaker 1>he asked his assistant to book the flight for me,

197
00:10:17.919 --> 00:10:20.279
<v Speaker 1>which I thought was I thought it was quite rude

198
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:22.799
<v Speaker 1>to ask his assistant to book a flight for me.

199
00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:26.480
<v Speaker 1>He was, you know, asking her on Christmas Day, and

200
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I felt quite apologetic to her that he was asking

201
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:31.120
<v Speaker 1>her to do this, which I didn't need him to do.

202
00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:33.879
<v Speaker 1>I was very capable of buying my own plane ticket

203
00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:37.559
<v Speaker 1>and making my own flight reservation. Question and did mister

204
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Epstein ever set up a dentist or doctor appointment for

205
00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:43.960
<v Speaker 1>on your behalf answer? He recommended a dentist in New York.

206
00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:47.639
<v Speaker 1>I had to get a root canal, and so I

207
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:49.600
<v Speaker 1>was like crazy enough to get a root canal in

208
00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:52.559
<v Speaker 1>a wisdom tooth, which I would not recommend that anyone ever.

209
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:54.720
<v Speaker 1>Do you know. I was kind of new to New

210
00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:57.440
<v Speaker 1>York because I had spent my whole career in Washington,

211
00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:01.000
<v Speaker 1>and he knew tons of people, and so he recommended

212
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:03.440
<v Speaker 1>this guy to do a root canal, and then, you know,

213
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:06.440
<v Speaker 1>also a dentist. In addition, he had a friend who

214
00:11:06.440 --> 00:11:08.480
<v Speaker 1>was an oncologist, and I met her on you know,

215
00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:12.279
<v Speaker 1>one occasion at the townhouse, and she was talking about

216
00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:15.399
<v Speaker 1>her work, which she was very focused in particular on

217
00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:18.559
<v Speaker 1>breast cancer, and so he was introducing us, you know,

218
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:21.000
<v Speaker 1>and he was saying, she's done all this great work

219
00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:24.399
<v Speaker 1>on breast cancer, et cetera, et cetera. And then she

220
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.960
<v Speaker 1>went on to tell some stories about how important early

221
00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:30.039
<v Speaker 1>detection is for breast cancer and how it just makes

222
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:32.519
<v Speaker 1>all the difference in the world. And in the context

223
00:11:32.519 --> 00:11:35.039
<v Speaker 1>of that conversation, I made the comment that I had

224
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:38.600
<v Speaker 1>never had a mammogram. Again, I've you know, been working

225
00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:41.840
<v Speaker 1>hard in government, and as you all know, working in government,

226
00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:44.440
<v Speaker 1>you oftentimes like fail to do things like go to

227
00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:47.039
<v Speaker 1>the dentist and fail to do all these basic things.

228
00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:49.799
<v Speaker 1>And so when I said that that I had never

229
00:11:49.799 --> 00:11:51.840
<v Speaker 1>had a mammogram at the time, you know, I was

230
00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:54.399
<v Speaker 1>in my mid forties, and there was kind of like

231
00:11:54.480 --> 00:11:57.399
<v Speaker 1>shock and horror expressed. And you know about Epstein, you know,

232
00:11:57.559 --> 00:12:00.559
<v Speaker 1>and his friend who was the oncologist, both insist that

233
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:04.159
<v Speaker 1>I immediately make an appointment at her breast clinic to

234
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:07.679
<v Speaker 1>get a mammogram. Question and who was this ps oncologist?

235
00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Answer Eva Dubin question and did mister Epstein pay for

236
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:15.200
<v Speaker 1>these appointments or visits? Rather answer no, I don't believe

237
00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:19.679
<v Speaker 1>they were all covered by insurance. As I recall question,

238
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:22.320
<v Speaker 1>did mister Epstein ever give you an Apple TV or

239
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:25.159
<v Speaker 1>Apple TV products? Answer? He gave me an Apple Watch.

240
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:27.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Apple has a TV I don't think.

241
00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:30.279
<v Speaker 1>So he did give me an Apple Watch. Question not

242
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:32.879
<v Speaker 1>any of the Apple TV devices that you can stream

243
00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:35.919
<v Speaker 1>other apps off of? Answer, oh those little black boxes

244
00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:40.679
<v Speaker 1>question Yes answer, I don't remember that it's possible. But

245
00:12:40.759 --> 00:12:43.080
<v Speaker 1>he did give me an Apple Watch as a Christmas gift.

246
00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:46.559
<v Speaker 1>Question and that was an Apple Watch with the Hermes band.

247
00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Is that correct? Answer? Yes? Question? And did mister Epstein

248
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:52.879
<v Speaker 1>provide you with a fendy coot and bag? Answer? Yes,

249
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:56.120
<v Speaker 1>question and you remember roughly when you would have received

250
00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:00.000
<v Speaker 1>those answer, I don't question. Did it strike you as

251
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:04.000
<v Speaker 1>to receive a coat and bag from mister Epstein? Answer?

252
00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:06.399
<v Speaker 1>Not really. I mean, you know, he typically would send

253
00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:08.919
<v Speaker 1>as a birthday gift, he would at least send me

254
00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:11.200
<v Speaker 1>a handbag. And you know, I assume that he, you know,

255
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:14.720
<v Speaker 1>had his executive assistant basically go to the handbag closet

256
00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:17.519
<v Speaker 1>that he had at his house. It seemed like very

257
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.799
<v Speaker 1>you know, not a particularly personalized gift. You know, I

258
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:22.919
<v Speaker 1>think for a woman, you know, leather goods, you know,

259
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:26.120
<v Speaker 1>handbags or wallets or you know, scarves are very kind

260
00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:29.159
<v Speaker 1>of you know, common, you know, the common gift question.

261
00:13:29.440 --> 00:13:31.799
<v Speaker 1>So were you not part of the decision making process

262
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:34.879
<v Speaker 1>and selecting these bags or coats, they were just randomly

263
00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:38.399
<v Speaker 1>gifted to you. Answer. In most every instance, the answer

264
00:13:38.440 --> 00:13:40.879
<v Speaker 1>to that is yes, I believe that he the Fendi

265
00:13:40.960 --> 00:13:43.039
<v Speaker 1>bag that you just mentioned, I believe that he sent

266
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:45.159
<v Speaker 1>me an online picture of it, you know, do you

267
00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:47.120
<v Speaker 1>like the bag? You know kind of thing. But the

268
00:13:47.159 --> 00:13:49.639
<v Speaker 1>other ones, No, the other ones just came as they

269
00:13:49.679 --> 00:13:53.519
<v Speaker 1>were question and either probably him or his assistant picked

270
00:13:53.519 --> 00:13:57.240
<v Speaker 1>them out for you. Answer. I certainly could not have

271
00:13:57.279 --> 00:14:00.440
<v Speaker 1>imagined that he was picking them out for himself. Okay,

272
00:14:00.519 --> 00:14:02.840
<v Speaker 1>so he wasn't trying to style you with certain pieces

273
00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:05.799
<v Speaker 1>in any way. Answered no, No, I certainly didn't have

274
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:08.360
<v Speaker 1>that impression. All right, folks, we're gonna wrap up right here,

275
00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:10.480
<v Speaker 1>and in the next episode dealing with the topic, we're

276
00:14:10.519 --> 00:14:13.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna pick up where we left off. All the information

277
00:14:13.399 --> 00:14:16.360
<v Speaker 1>that goes with this episode can be found in the

278
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:17.279
