Speaker 1: Now for our topic of the day. You know where
we're going with this, right, Bill Gates interview on PBS,
you know, with Julie Woodriff. She asked a question about Epstein,
and of course, of course this squirrely look in MF.
Bill Gates, well looked pretty pathetic answering it. And you know,
it's funny to me that a guy like Bill Gates
can get away with his relationship with Epstein for so
long without anybody really stepping up and questioning it until recently,
and knowing that that relationship started after the fact, after
Epstein was already convicted. It's mind boggling how he doesn't
get absolutely steward and grilled on this. A simple question,
isn't good enough? Of these days, I hope that one
of these reporters gives this guy the business. I don't
know why all of these legacy media journalists are always
letting these people off the hook. Don't you want to
go harden the paint on these people? I mean, I
get it. These legacy media journalists want to be part
of the crowd, right. They have like this yearning to
fit in, this this desire to be part of the
so called elite I get it, but it's gross. How
about you really put the screws to somebody like Bill Gates,
you know, be a journalist now it don't get me wrong,
I think it's a step in the right direction that
you know, PBS would even ask these questions, but not
a scratch of the surface. Right, We need more and
a guy like Bill Gates should have to answer for it.
And the whole entire nonsense of oh well it was
for charity. Come on, man, you know how rich Bill
Gates is. You really think he needs Jeffrey Epstein's money.
The whole entire story that Bill Gates is concocted around
his relationship with Epstein has been fugazy from the jump,
garbage trash. I don't believe any of it. And there
were probably friends before twenty eleven. Yeah, now, not chums, right,
we're not talking about you know, him and Bill Clinton, perhaps,
but they definitely were in the same atmosphere. They were
definitely rubbing elbows, most certainly fellow travelers. All right, so
let's jump into this article from the Daily Mail and
let's see what Ross Ibbotson has to say. Headline, I
do regret having dinners with Jeffrey. But he's dead now.
So Bill Gates looks very uncomfortable as he squirms his
way through an interview about his friendship with pedophile Epstein.
But what does that even mean? But he's dead now,
So well, he's dead. So that's it, folks. Pack it in.
Don't ask any more questions, you pleabs. How dare you
question Bill Gates? Don't you know that Bill Gates cares
about you? Don't you know that Bill Gates has your
well being at the forefront of his mind. Just listen
to him tell you that. I mean, is this guy
for real? Oh, he's dead now, so el pack it in.
No bitch, zero chance that's going to happen. We'll pack
it in when the train of justice comes rolling through
the station. You absurd fuck bag. I mean, these people
are so out of touch with reality, and they are
so out of touch with the rest of society that
it's not even funny. Does this guy really think that
society is going to accept these half asked wind bag answers? Now,
your pet reporters, mit, your friendly reporter might, but not society.
The rest of us don't give a fuck about you,
Bill Gates. Okay, In fact, most of us think you're
a pretty scummy dude, And those are just the facts, right,
call them how I see him. And these people always
will hide behind their charities. My charitable donations though I
donate to the poor. Yeah, right, dude, just another cover
story so that these folks can wrap themselves in it
as armor when they're disgusting. This is inevitably and eventually revealed.
And how many times have we seen it with all
of these guys, Leeon Black, Glenn Dubin, Prince Andrew, all
of them. They all point to their charities like that
means something breaking news. It does not. Bill Gates is
floundered while being grilled on his past dinners with Jeffrey Epstein,
awkwardly trying to draw a line under the concerns raised
by the interviewer by saying, well, he's dead, and again,
what does that even mean. It's so crazy that a
guy like Bill Gates would even utter a comment like that.
So because he's dead, we should just ignore the fact
that you were paling around with a guy who was
abusing children. Sure, buddy, we're all just gonna forget that
fact and go download our next fucking Microsoft update. It's unbelievable. Honestly,
I just don't. I don't. I'm tired of these people.
I am so tired of the men of always and
the way they just treat people like they're worthless and
they don't mean anything. And it's just when is enough enough? Right?
When are people in general around the world gonna look
at people like this, like Bill Gates and look at
them for the scumbags that they are. I will never
ever understand the hero worship that occurs with politicians, these
tech giants, any of these people. Honestly. The Microsoft founder
sixty five first met Epstein at his Manhattan townhouse in
twenty eleven, allegedly after the financier pedophile had been convicted
of soliciting sex from a minor in two thousand and eight. Again,
you can't solicit sex from a minor, folks, Okay. If
you're buying sex from a child, well you're engaging in
criminal behavior, okay, And that's exactly what was going on here.
But he wasn't buying the sex. The money was just
affront a cover so that when he got caught he
could point to that and say, oh, yeah, I paid them,
so they're horse. It is unseemly that that shit ever
passed mustard in the courts down in Florida, That the
prosecutors were ever ever playing ball with this guy is
just beyond absurd. He continued meetings with Epstein until at
least twenty thirteen, and they're reported to have remained a
sore spot for Melinda, which factored into their divorce, which
was announced this year after twenty seven years of marriage.
So we've talked about that, right, we know that Bill
Gates wife and the relationship that Epstein and Bill Gates
had played a part in Melinda wanting to divorce Bill Gates,
according to sources. Right, we're not there. We don't you know,
live with them. We don't know, but that's what the
sources said. And we also have a profile built of
Bill Gates that's not the schoolboy, you know, milk drinking,
cookie eating nice guy that he likes to portray himself as.
We have a profile of a guy who would go
to the office, switch out cars and then go and
see his gumaud for those of you who are not Italian,
that's his side piece, and then come back and you know,
in that car, and then go home in his regular car.
All to try and be smooth, all to try and
be slick, another one of these condemnable sick billionaires who
cheats on their wives. Why even get married? If you
want to be a billionaire playboy, you want to be
Bruce fucking Wayne, then be Bruce Wayne. Why are you
gonna get married? Why are you cheating on your wife?
Why do you have to be a scumbag at every turn?
PBS presenter Judy Woodriff asked, you had a number of
meetings with Jeffrey Epstein, who, when you met him ten
years ago, was convicted of soliciting prostitution from minors. What
did you know about him when you were meeting with him?
As you've said yourself, in the hopes of raising money
now right away, I have problems with Judy Wooddriff talk
about a softball. How about so what would make you
think it's a good idea, mister Gates to hang out
with Jeffrey Epstein after a conviction of a crime against
the child. Do you really think that his money is
that important? And do you really think that you couldn't
have raised that money from other sources. Furthermore, if you
couldn't have raised that money, don't you have enough money
to put it up? You couldn't, well Woodruff have just
asked him something like that instead of this softball ass shit.
It's absurd, It's really I just don't even know what
to say at this point. The Fourth of State has
let you folks down. Of that, I am certain when
I have to get up here every day, get behind
this microphone and talk about this case, and you know,
pick these stupid ass articles apart and add context, all
hope is lost. Folks. What the hell? What's the Fourth
of State doing? You get a guy like Bill Gates
sitting in front of you, you better hammer him with
hard questions about this situation. Gates immediately started stammering, fidgeting
with his ring finger as he replied, you know, I
had dinners with them. I regret doing that. He had relationships,
he said, with people, he said, who would give to
public health. Not nearly enough. Philanthropy goes in that direction
right away to his charity. Right. He wants to direct
you and the narrative towards the charity and away from
his relationship with Epstein. As if we're that easily sidetracked. Sorry,
Bill Gates, you don't control the narrative anymore. Okay, and
those of us who are paying attention understand that you
hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein after him being a convicted
sex offender is a situation where there's no explanation that's
going to hit home, no explanation that's going to get
you off the hook here, Okay, you should have never
been around Jeffrey Epstein in the first especially after he
was a convicted sex offender. I mean, are you fucking
kidding me? Here? For my next trick, I'll tell Bill
Gates that when he wakes up in the morning, he
should brush his teeth. Those meetings were a mistake, he added.
Oh you think those meetings were a mistake, No shit,
Bill Gates. They didn't result in what he purported, and
I cut them off. You know that goes back a
long time ago now, so there's nothing new on that.
You see what he tries to do here, no kind
of context. Short answers. Doesn't want to get into it.
Oh that's old news. Let's just keep moving. We'll keep
moving along. Have you heard about my new vaccines? I mean, look, man,
I get it right. If I had Bill Gates money,
I'd want to help the whole world. There's zero chance
I'd be involved in any kind of fuckery like these
people are. It makes me so mad that people squawk
or their power and their wealth and their position in
the manner that people like Bill Gates do. Really, when
you look back at it, what the fuck has this
guy done for humanity or this program? Now, come on,
what has he really done for humanity? Meanwhile him the
rest of the fuck bags, they'll get up there and
they'll virtue signal and they'll tell you that you should
hate your cousin and hate the vaccine people, hate the
non vaxed people, hate this one, hate that one. They're
only your enemy. Meanwhile, your real fucking enemy, people like
Bill Gates, people like Glenn Dubin, the bankers and the
rest of them. Those are the people who are really
fucking our lives up. Not your uncle Joe who believes
in aliens. Okay, not your Aunt Susan who ran around
yapping about Russia Gate. The real people who are screwing
our lives up are the people in the financial sector
and the jerk offs and the military industry complex and
all of their minions that we have elected the office.
A lot of people don't want to hear that shit,
but that's the truth. But Woodriff noted that he continued
to meet with Epstein over several years in person and
business settings. Melinda was reported to have been furious at
Bill's relationship with Epstein after the couple visited the Predator's
Upper east Side townhouse in September twenty thirteen. Well, that
definitely was a good line of questioning from Judy, right,
of course, why are you hanging out with him multiple times? Look,
there's no excuse, there's zero excuse for it. Like I've
said a million times, if you were hanging out with
Epstein before his conviction, you're still a scumbag. But at
least you have a leg to stand on. He wasn't
a convicted felon at that point, convicted of, you know,
molesting children and shit, so at least you could be like, look,
I you know, I don't know, But Bill Gates, everybody
is chilling with him after the fact, all the people
that went to his cool little party for Prince Andrew, Yeah,
they could all get fucked as far as I'm concerned.
Epstein meanwhile, provided advice to Gates on how he might
end his toxic marriage, sources told The Daily Beast earlier
this year, I guess Epstein's just the advice whisperer. Huh.
All these rich people show up at Epstein's house, I mean,
what is he? The profit of Delphi show up there.
There's a bunch of smoke going, He's eyes are rolling back,
he's speaking in tongues, and he's giving you this great information,
this financial information or information about your marriage. I mean, really,
do they really believe us to think that this motherfucker
some kind of savant that everybody's going to him for
all this advice? Because if they really think we're going
to believe that, they are stupider than even I thought.
Woodriff asked what when he found out about Epstein's background.
He shrugged and said, well, you know, I said, I
regretted having those dinners. And there's nothing, absolutely nothing new
on that. You would think that after Bill Gates found
out who Jeffrey Epstein was, because you didn't know before, right,
don't you think that you might reach out to some
of these survivors and say to them, hey, how can
I help? Is there a foundation where I can throw
some dough towards? Is there something I can do where
I can harness my great wealth to help out. Since
I made such a fucking disgusting decision by hanging out
with this man, I'd like to try and rectify that
in some way. They don't even do that because they
don't care, right, they don't care. They truly don't care
what you think about them. What does it matter. They're
the ones that hold all the cards, right, Just take
a look at who got wealthy throughout this pandemic and
who didn't. And once again, that'll tell the story. I
know it's cliche, but if you follow the money, you're
gonna end up at the politician. The interviewer followed up
by asking, is there a lesson for you, for anyone
else looking at this? Gates threw his hands up in
the air and responded, well, he's dead, so you know,
in general, you always have to be careful. I mean,
I don't even know, honestly, Like, what else is there
to say about all of these fucking scumballs. And the
sad part is they're all gonna walk from this. We
all know it. None of these people on the outer
edges who are dancing around on Jeffrey Epstein's lawn are
going to be getting in trouble for this, and we
know it. But that doesn't mean we're gonna let him
off the hook here on the Jeffrey Epstein Show. We're
gonna continue to talk about it. He quickly changed topic
to his charity, saying, you know the you know, I'm
very proud of what we've done in philanthropy and very
proud of the work of the foundation. You know, that's
what I get up every day and focus on again
with the charity, the charity, the charity. Well, I'm focused
on my charity. I'm doing work for my charity and
the charity the charity. Nobody stop with the charity stuff. Okay,
we get it. You're a real rich guy. You spread
your money around because you want to look like you care. Well,
it certainly doesn't look like you care, okay, Bill Gates.
Woodriff also asked Gates what was going to happen to
the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation since the couple announced
their divorce. He said that the priority is that Melinda
and I believe in global health and education. That will
still be where our work is done. He added that
some additional advisors were going to be brought in at
a board level, and said that the foundation would continue
its work in helping governments deal with the pandemic. Oh
that's exactly what everybody needs, you helping with the pandemic. Fuck,
do you know about the pandemic? Bill Gates? Go write
a computer program, a tracer program, whatever it may be.
You're not a doctor. I thought we were following the science.
I have a zero interest in anything Bill Gates has
to say about my health. Melinda was reported to have
held a number of calls in October twenty nineteen with
divorce lawyers, The Wall Street Journal reported in May. That
was the same month that The New York Times reported
that Bill had met with Epstein on numerous occasions starting
in twenty and eleven. So that was definitely the bell Weather, right.
This story came out in the Times, and Melinda she
wasn't having it. She was like, all right, I'm dipping,
I'm taking my coatrillion dollars, and I'm gonna go lay
on the beach. The couple announced their divorce in May,
and it was finalized in August. The couple had three
children together, Jennifer twenty five, Rory twenty one, and Phoebe eighteen.
In June, a spokesman for Gates said that many lies
had been told about the reasons for Bill's split from Melinda.
It is extremely disappointing that there have been so many
lies published about the cause and circumstances and the timeline
of Bill gates divorce, the spokesman told Insider, Oh, yeah,
it's all rumors. I'm sure that Bill Gates's wife was
completely fine with him hanging out with a sexual predator.
You have daughters, bro, What the fuck is wrong with you?
I mean, can you be that dense? I don't even
have children, and I'm sickened by all of these people.
You're gonna go over to Jeffrey fucking Ebstein's house to
break bread and beg for money? What are you? Oliver Twist?
Please say may I have some more? I just I
don't understand it. I just don't understand it. The rumors
and speculations surrounding mister Gates are becoming increasingly absurd, and
it's unfortunate that people who have little to no knowledge
are being characterized as sources. So, according to you, Bill
Gates spokesman, these people don't have uh, they're not sources
or they might not have any information, but we all
know that there's two sides to every story, right, and
Bill Gates, he's not getting off the hook at least
here on this podcast. We're gonna keep hammering away here
and wondering when one of these legacy media types are
going to ask this dude a question that's not lobbed
in there in softball fashion. If you'd like to contact me,
you can do that at Bobby Kapuci at ProtonMail dot com.
That's bo bb Y c ap u c Ci at

of the links that go with this episode can be
found in the description box. What's up, everyone, and welcome
back to the Epstein Chronicles. On this morning's edition, we're
gonna talk about a new interview that Bill Gates' ex
wife gave to CBS's Gail King that aired this morning,
and I'll tell you what. It just confirms everything we
thought about Bill Gates. The dudes gross, The dude's creepy,
and he was a lot closer than to Epstein than
he would like to let on. It's typical though, for
these people, these sorts, all of these fellow travelers. Oh,
we had no idea. Jeffrey Epstein seemed like such a
great guy, even though he was hanging out with a
bunch of young girls. Oh even though he was already
busted for sex offenses. Great guy, I'm gonna go hang
out at his house? Is Bill Gates? Okay? I mean?
Is that the proper kind of decision to be made
by a man who isn't scummy as well? Because I
have to tell you, I don't care if you're my
best friend in the whole entire world, my family. If
you get convicted of charges such as this, let me
tell you what. There'll be no more coming over to
hang out with you, no more phone calls about us
going to the park to throw the football around, none
of that shit. So I don't even understand how Bill
Gates can have any excuse for any of this, especially
considering the person that he's supposed to listen to the most.
Anyone out there with a girlfriend or a wife or
a fiance will tell you you listened when your fiance
or your wife or your girlfriend they have a impassion
to plead to you about something. Something's not right. One
of your friends is a bit goofy or off, you
should probably listen to them. But Bill Gates and his hubris, well,
he doesn't listen to anybody. I'm Bill Gates. I'll do
whatever I want. And this comes after we've heard about
his impropriety in the office, about how he was having
an affair with one of the employees, how he would
it went to a point where he'd even have to
switch cars when he was at work so he can
go on his little tryst. Bill Gates is an absolute scumball,
just another fellow traveler of Jeffrey Epstein's, just another enabler
of Jeffrey Epstein's, and another person who helped him refurbish
his image, or at least attempt to. And now the
house of cards is falling down around him. His ex
wife is putting him on blast, and how long until
we have some more evidence about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Remember, folks,
this is what I've said, right. It's like when there's
a little hole in the dam, a little crack, get
a little bit of water first, but as that crack
becomes bigger, it becomes more of a problem, and before
you know it, the dam busts and the water comes
pouring down. And it's the same here. The more information
that comes out as time goes by, the worse and
worse it's going to get for a scumbag like Bill Gates.
All right, So this article is from the Daily Mail
and the author is Jennifer Smith and Charlie Langston. Headline
Will indigates slam's Bill for continuing to meet with evil
Jeffrey Epstein after she had nightmares about him and suggests
he had multiple affairs throughout their twenty seven year marriage.
That doesn't shock me. Look, here's the thing. When you
let a guy like Bill Gates get away with something
one time, as his wife or in any other capacity,
he's going to think that he is able to do
that whenever he wants. So you can't let people like
this get away with shit, especially if you're their wife, right,
I mean, and we wonder why some of these women
are crazy, who are with these dudes? They're forced to
be because these guys are all scumbags out here, cheating
on their wives and all of that nonsense. Look, it's
the year twenty twenty one. If you have twenty twenty two,
excuse me if you want to have an open marriage,
and you want to you know, you and your wife
want to have other partners. That's whatever, it's your business, right,
But why are you being a scumbag creeping around on
your wife, cheating on her and all of the rest
of it After twenty seven year It's not good enough
that you have all of that money, all of that
power you have to be a creepy fuck and go
out there cheat on your wife and hang out with
guys like Jeffrey Epstein. But please get up there and
tell me a little bit more how you care about
the world, and tell us a little bit more about
viruses and shit. Give me a break already, stay in
your lane, homie. Melinda gateshed or trashed her ex husband
Bill for his questionable friendship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and
revealed that he continued to meet with him despite her
having nightmares about him. Now, imagine for a minute, if
you will, all of you out there with a wife,
or a girlfriend, or a fiance, whatever. Imagine you had
a friend and that friend was such a scumball that
your girl was having nightmares about this person. Do you
really think that you'd be able to go and hang
out with them anymore. I know that it wouldn't be
a possibility for me. A I would never do that
making my significant other uncomfortable. Let's be very clear. My
partner in life is my number one my number one priority,
my best friend, the person who's going to be put
above everybody else. So there's no way in hell I'd
be hanging out with any person that made my girl uncomfortable,
point blank period, Never mind of a sick fuck like
Jeffrey Epstein. In her first interview since her divorce from
the billionaire last year, Melinda told CBS Mornings that she
insisted on meeting Epstein back in twenty eleven because she
wanted to see who this man was. All right, Well,
according to her, she wanted to get a reading on
who Jeffrey Epstein is. And I could see that. How
many of you again wants to meet your friends, right?
You know, she doesn't want you to hanging out there
with some hobo, some vagabond, So of course your wife
wants to get an account of who you're hanging out
with and spending your time with. Unfortunately, for Melinda Gates,
that person happened to be Jeffrey Epstein. If I ever
met this dude in person, I would have to take
eighty five bleach baths and then go through the decontamination
process that they use when you're dealing with like level
four viruses. I did not like that he had meetings
with Jeffrey Epstein. I made that clear to him. I
also met Jeffrey Epstein exactly one time. I wanted to
see who this man was, and I regretted it from
the second I stepped in the door. Imagine you're that
much of a sick, disgusting bastard that when the second
somebody walks through the door, they know. And I'm sure
that a lot of people got that vibe from him.
You know, when you get a vibe from somebody, maybe
it's not always right, but I know for a fact,
I've gotten vibes from people before, and I just knew
that there was something off about them, that they were
a bit na wire. Differently, let us say, so, you
gotta think that people around Epstein knew what he was
about what was going on with him. And in fact,
we know that is the case because people who are
around him have come out and say they used to
talk in confidence about what a sick fuck Jeffrey Epstein is.
But unfortunately none of them ever had the courage to
step up to the plate and stop this monster. He
was abhorrent, evil personified. I had nightmares about it afterwards.
That's why my heart breaks for these young women. That's
how I felt, and I am an older woman. He
was awful. You know. I know that she is really
big with donations and helping charities and stuff. Maybe she'd
like to help out some of these human trafficking victims,
some of these charities and or organizations that could really
use the help. I mean, she seems like somebody who
doesn't want to even have the stench of Jeffrey Epstein
anywhere near and she's in a very decent place to
really help. You gotta think she has quite the amount
of dough and she's going to be getting even more
when she gets divorced. And kind of like jeff Bezos
ex wife that she donated a ton of money, so
that would be a cool gesture for Melinda Gates here
kind of to you snubb or husband and put her
finger in the eye of Jeffrey Epstein's corpse. She told
Gail King that Bill had to answer the many times
he met Epstein and even suggested that it contributed to
the divorce. We've known this, but it's crazy to hear
her come out and say it now. I mean, think
about it. If you're married to a guy and he's
hanging out over at Jeffrey Effing Epstein's house, you really
want to be with that person. It was not one thing,
It was many things that led to the divorce. Any
of the questions remaining about what Bill's relationship with him was,
those are for Bill to answer. I made it very
clear how I felt about him. So she's putting Bill
out there on a ledge here. Look, you basically saying
it's time for him to answer questions Aboutjeffrey Epstein without
coming out and directly saying it. That is what she's
inferring here. So it's going to be very interesting in
the aftermath of this interview to see how Bill Gates
responds to all of this. My guess is he's just
going to ignore it. She also revealed that she and
Bill are not friends but are friendly in work together,
and she suggested he had more than one affair throughout
their twenty seven year marriage. Yeah, we've heard about these affairs,
like I just stated earlier he would go to work
and he'd switch cars to go over to his Gumaud's house.
I mean, look, I'm not one to get involved in
people's personal lives, right, Look, do what you want to do.
You want to cheat on your husband or your wife,
that's your decision. It's a bad one. But hey, I'm
not here to tell anyone how to live their lives.
As long as everything that's occurring is between consenting adults.
Is that too difficult for some of these people. But
the fact that Bill Gates is out here cheating on
his wife, hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein, did he really
think that this was going to come to a happy conclusion,
that him and Melinda were going to ride off into
the sunset and be happy with each other forever. That's
not how this works. I believe in forgiveness. I thought
we had worked through some of that, Melinda said of
his two thousand affair with a Microsoft employee. I gave
every single piece of myself to this marriage. I was
committed from the day we got engaged to the day
I got out of it. So look, she's probably pretty hurt,
I would guess, right. I mean, she was with this
dude for a long time. Another one of these rich
ass Silicon Valley hedge fund type scumbags out there creeping
on their wives. I mean, how many of them are
doing it? I'm guessing most of them. They all think
that they're above the law in every regard and they
think the rules don't apply to them. I'll have a wife,
I'll have a couple of gumads on the side, like
I'm a mafioso kingpin. The interview was filmed at the
offices of Melinda's new company, Pivotal Ventures in Seattle. Bill
has said in the past that meeting with Epstein multiple
times was a huge mistake and an error in judgment. No,
an error in judgment is when you run a yellow
light that's about the turn red. An error in judgment
is becoming a New York Jets fan like I did
what you did here. My friend is beyond the pale,
absolutely gross, and there is no excuse for hanging out
with a convicted sex offender. In a statement to CBS,
he said meeting with Epstein was a mistake that I
regret deeply. It was a substantial error in judgment. Oh yeah,
that's all it was. An error in judgment, folks, and
he kept on the relationship afterwards, so it was an
error in judgment every single time. None of it makes sense.
Just like the rest of these people, their stories don't
line up. None of it makes sense, and all of
it seems like absolute bullshit. Elsewhere in the interview, Melinda
told being in tears about the divorce moments before having
to attend a Gates Foundation meeting, and how she is
dating again. I hope that happens for me again. I
am dipping my toe in the water a little bit,
she said, adding that she definitely wants to be in
love again. She said dating was interesting at this point,
but did not give any additional details. Well there you go, folks.
All you dudes out there, if you're single, go ahead
and try and find Melinda Gates on Tinder or whatever
the app is these days. Might have yourself a little
shot there. The fifty seven year old who shocked the
world when she and Bill announced in May twenty twenty
one that they were ending their twenty seven year marriage,
previously told how she endured emotionally challenging times whilst working
with the billionaire. The pair's divorce was finalized privately in Washington,
where their Gates Foundation is based in August. So obviously
this kind of thing is going to be pretty private
as far as the financials and stuff like that. But
when you see the acrimony spilling over the edges of
the glass, if you will, the way we're seeing here,
you know that things were not good between these two.
The terms of it were never made public, but Bill
was worth a rounds one hundred and fifty two billion
at the time, giving Melinda a fifty percent settlement of
seventy six billion dollars. That does not include the couple's
vast property portfolio, which comprised of homes in New York, Washington,
and California. In a preview of the interview, Melinda took
a swipe at her ex's infidelity, saying, I gave every
single piece of myself to this marriage. I was committed
from the day we got engaged to the day we
ended it. So seventy six billion dollars, that's quite a
bit of money, huh. So it would be nice to
see Melinda Gates step up here, like I said a
second ago, and give some of this money to some
human trafficking organizations. Melinda revealed that Bill's two thousand affair
with a Microsoft employee broke the trust in their marriage,
and also suggested that he was unfaithful more than once.
King asked Melinda, once trust is broken, isn't it hard
to get it back, to which the philanthropist responded very,
It's very hard to get it back in any relationship. Absolutely.
I mean talk about the ultimate breakage of trust. Gonna
go out and step out on your relationship with somebody else,
come home, crawl into bed with me. Yeah, that's gonna
be a big problem for sure. Like I said, if
you want to have that kind of life, discuss it
with your partner, have an open relationship. I certainly believe
in forgiveness, so I thought we had work through some
of that. She said of the couple's attempt to work
through Bill's affair. It wasn't one moment or once BESI
thing that happened. There just came a point in time
where there was enough there that I realized it just
wasn't healthy and I couldn't trust what we had. Asked
for her response to reports that Bill cheated multiple times,
she replied, those are questions Bill needs to answer. She's
not wrong about that. Is he ever going to answer them? Though?
I highly doubt it. This is a man who has
somehow avoided all of this spotlight. I guess when you're
Bill Gates and you have all that money and all
that power, nobody wants to tangle with you. A spokesman
for Bill previously acknowledged that he had an affair, but
that it had nothing to do with him stepping down
from the board of Microsoft in twenty twenty. There was
an affair almost twenty years ago, which ended amicably. Bill's
decision to transition off the board was in no way
related to this matter. In fact, he had expressed an
interest in spending more time on his philanthropy starting several
years earlier. A spokesman told The Wall Street Journal last year,
Oh yeah, I'm sure that was had everything to do
with it. Had nothing to do with the fact that
he was getting a divorce, that he was being called out,
that he was hanging out with Epstein, had nothing to
do with it. Melinda spoke about how despite the couple
going through their divorce behind the scenes, they were still
able to work effectively together. First of all, we both
want to work together. We founded the institution in two thousand,
both of us. It has both of our names on
the building. I believe in that institution. My values are
baked into that institution. So I have always felt like
it calls us to be our higher selves, even during
these difficult times. In the last eighteen months, while we
were going through this process behind the scenes, we were
able to show up and work effectively together. That has
to be pretty difficult. So I know that if I
was going through an acrimonious divorce, split or whatever, I
probably wouldn't want to be around my ex wife. But
I guess when there's seventy six billion reasons to suck
it up, I guess you'd do what you gotta do
at that point. I'm not saying it was easy, but
I'm saying for me, I had days where I had
tears the hour before an online meeting, or I'd be angry,
but I still rose to be my higher self, and
I think we can continue to do that. One of
the things that I always tried to do when I
worked in a corporate environment is make sure that I
left all of my baggage, my personal baggage, at the
door whenever I went to work. Nobody needs to deal
with my nonsense. Nobody needs to deal with my crap,
So I would leave it all at the door, compartmentalize,
and go to work. And that's basically what she's saying here.
She set the pair or not yet friends, but are friendly.
We certainly have a working relationship. We are friendly at
this point. Friends is a different word for me. That
might come over a time, but for me, there is
still healing that needs to happen. I wish them well.
I certainly don't wish any harm. We have a productive,
working relationship, and I think that will continue. Melinda candidly
about sobbing on the floor as her marriage fell apart
and working through the divorce never in an easy situation.
I've had several friends go through divorces and it was
really rough on them. Thankfully, I've really never had to
experience that. My parents have been married for what seems
like a million years now, so I've never really witnessed
it up close and personal like a lot of other
people have. But it has to be rough and brutal,
especially when kids are involved. I think it's really important
to say, Look, I had a lot of tears for
many days. I mean days where I'm literally lying on
the floor on the carpet, thinking how can this be?
How can I get up? How am I going to
move forward? She revealed. There were days where I certainly
was angry. That's part of the grieving process. You're grieving
a loss of something you thought you had and thought
you had for a lifetime. This is painful stuff. Yeah,
there's no doubt about it. I feel bad for her,
no doubt, one hundred percent. Rough to go through something
like this, but at least she has the uh, the
soft landing of seventy six billion dollars at the end
of the day. Though, I started on this journey of healing,
and I feel like I'm starting to get to the
other side. And I do feel like I'm turning the
page in the chapter. Now it's twenty twenty two, and
I'm actually really excited about what's to come and life
ahead of me. She added, I don't question myself now,
not at all. I gave every single piece of myself
to this marriage. I was committed to the marriage from
the day we got engaged to the day I got
out of it. Like we talked about earlier, a bit
of a sideswipe at Bill there society used to put
this on women like it was our fault. I did
nothing wrong. I hold my head high. You shouldn't do it.
You didn't do anything wrong as far as we know,
so you should hold your head high. Forget this scumbag,
Bill Gates. Move on with your life and find somebody
that is not a condemnable scumbag. The interview, which marks
the first time that Melinda has publicly addressed or split
from Bill, comes ten months after the former couple revealed
to the world that they were separating, and just seven
months after they finalized their one hundred and thirty billion
dollar divorce settlement. That number is just insane. To think
about one hundred and thirty billion dollars. What an insane
amount of money. However, while Bill and Melinda have remained
silent about what prompted their split, just weeks after their announcement,
the Microsoft founder was rocked by several accusations that he
behaved inappropriately towards female employees at the tech company. And
we remember those reports. Dude had like a bro atmosphere,
like it's a fratthouse atmosphere. That's all fine and well
when you're hanging out with your buddies but at work,
it's a whole different ballgame. You gotta respect everybody. Man,
don't make anyone uncomfortable. Don't turn the environment into some
kind of like party bro kind of environment. No stupid
ass comments. Here's an idea. Go to work, do your job,
go home, get your paycheck, rinse and repeat. In May
twenty twenty one, multiple reports surfaced claiming the billionaire pursued
extra marital affairs with women working at Microsoft. That same month,
bills spokesperson confirmed that he'd had an affair with a
female staff member in two thousand while he was married
to Melinda. Bill was CEO of the company at the time.
It is not clear what position or level of seniority
the employee was. That's a big deal, right as a manager,
never mind as the owner or CEO of the company.
It's probably a good idea not to dip the pen
in company inc. If you know what I mean. I
know when I was managing my department, I wouldn't even
have meetings with employees without other people at present. There
are certain steps you have to take to safeguard everybody's
you know, rights, and make sure everybody's comfortable and all
of that. The affair states secret until twenty nineteen, when
the employee wrote a letter to the board detailing what
had happened and allegedly asking that Melinda read it. The
company opened an investigation into the claims. While the investigation
was still ongoing, in March twenty twenty, Bill shocked the
business world by announcing he was resigning from his position
on the company board. How many times have we seen this?
Every time there's one of these investigations. It's a lot
worse than these guys let on, And that's why they
stepped down. Talking to you, Leon Black, talking to you,
Les Wexner, I'm talking to you all of you, Bill Gates.
Then in June of last year, he announced he was
stepping down from the board of the Gates Foundation, which
he and Melinda founded together and which she continues to
play an act of role in as co chair of
the board. Although Bill has never spoke but spoken publicly
about the split, he is reported to have told attendees
at the Sun Valley Conference in Idaho in July that
the divorce was his fault. While attending the so called
billionaire Summer camp, Oh, I'm sure that's a great place
to go. I'm sure that there's never any disgusting plots
hatched at the Billionaire Summer Camp. The Microsoft founder opened
up about the couple's pending divorce in an off the
record question an answer session. According to The New York Post,
in the session, a tearful Bill reportedly admitted that the
breakdown of the marriage was his fault. He fessed up
to messing up one attend. He told the Post he
basically referred to the fact that it the divorce was
his fault. Well, no doubt, you're out there creeping around,
cheating on your wife, hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein, breaking news.
We don't need you to tell us it's your fault.
We can see it. The source added, he did seem
a bit emotional about it. He might have been on
the verge of tears. However, in the seven months since
the divorce was finalized, the former couple has put on
an amicable display, coming together. In October of last Steer
to host the wedding of their eldest child, Jennifer, who
tied the knot with Egyptian equestrian Niel Nasser in a
lavish ceremony at her one hundred and forty two acre
estate in North Salem, New York. Let's go have the
wedding on my one hundred and forty two acre estate.
We would use Zorrol Ranch, but Jeffrey Epstein is no
longer with us. Melinda has also thrown herself into the
fight for gender equality, pledging in June twenty twenty that
the Gates Foundation would spend two point one million dollars
two point one billion dollars on the cause over five years,
one of the largest single commitments the organization had made
in more than two decadesanthropists. The Philanthropists pledge seemed to
send a clear message about her split from her ex husband.
Melinda had long pushed for gender equality to be a
key priority for the Seattle based foundation, while Bill had
instead prioritized polio eradication and the developed of vaccines. Look,
when you're in a marriage such as this one, with
all of the high stakes surrounding it, you know that
the divorce is going to be talked about at a
fevered pace. So the crazy part about all of this,
in my opinion, is that you look at a guy
like Bill Gates and you see him out there doing
all of the talk shows, acting like he's this great
guy when in reality, just another gray character folks like
I always talk about, not some great man who is
trying to save the world or anything like that, just
a regular guy who puts his pants on the same
way that you do and is just as capable and
just as likely to screw up. Unfortunately, the guy just
doesn't want to be honest about his relationship with Epstein.
But that's okay, because we're gonna keep on digging, and
anytime there's some new news, you better believe we'll be
adding it to the catalog. All right, folks, that's going
to do it for this morning's update. Context episodes most
certainly on the way, and then I'll be back tonight
for the evening update. If you'd like to contact me,
you can do that at Bobby Capuci at ProtonMail dot com.

The links that go at this episode can be found
in the description box. Also, I'll provide the links. This
article was authored by Adam Schrader. Bill Gates admitted on
Wednesday that it was a huge mistake to spend time
with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and reveal that they shared several dinners.
Gates sixty five also revealed that his divorce from ex
wife Melinda French Gates was a source of great personal
sadness for the Microsoft co founder, and an extensive and
wide range interview with Anderson Cooper on his CNN show. Look,
you know what this is, right, This is a face
saving move, Anderson Cooper, mister Vanderbilt, Oh yeah, come on,
Bill Gates. Let's come on to the show. Let's refurbish
your image here. Let's get ahead of the curve. Get
him on there, let him explain his side of this story,
but never needle him deep enough about Jeffrey Epstein. That
is all I would ask this dude about if I
was in a room with them, same question, one hundred
different ways if I had to, But I would not
stop until I got answers, because let's be real, who
gives an f about his divorce at this point? Really.
Gates' relationship with Epstein dates back to twenty eleven, but
it became a point of contention in September twenty thirteen
between him and Melinda, who has been said to have
had been concerned about his relationship with the convicted pedophile.
Now think about how all that shit is for a minute.
Him and Epstein became friends after Epstein was already a
Level three sex offender, point blank period. That's all you
need to know. All the rest of this shit is filler.
This dude's such a douche burger that he decides that
it's a good idea to hang out with a level
three sex offender because he needs a couple of extra shekels. Bro,
you got more money than God, What do you need
Jeffrey Epstein's money for all of these people Honestly that
hung out with this dude after the fact, they have
no leg to stand on the people previously to him
being convicted. At least they can try and pitch the lion. Oh,
we have no idea, we know differently, but at least
they can pitch that line. These sons of bitches, these
pieces of shit. Sorry. Malinda reportedly told friends she was
furious about their alleged friendship and wanting nothing to do
with Epstein, and has been reported to have hired divorce
lawyers in twenty nineteen after meetings that Gates had with
Epstein became public, so again Melinda Gates going hard in
the pain here, using the relationship with Epstein and Bill
Gates as her lever to get the fuck out of
this marriage, and I don't blame her. Would you want
to be married to somebody who's covorting with a pedophile?
Would you want to be married to somebody who's breaking
bread with a pedophile? Would you want to be married
to somebody who is having business dinners with a Level
three sex offender. I certainly wouldn't. I don't know any
woman who would. So do you blame Melinda French Gates
for getting out of dodge? I do not. Gates has
been reported to have visited Epstein's home numerous times and
even talked with him about his toxic marriage, while the
pedophile allegedly gave him advice on ending his marriage. According
to The Daily Beast, the billionaire told Cooper that he
also certainly had concerns about Epstein, who had pleaded guilty
and was convicted in two thousand and eight of procuring
child excuse me, of procuring a child for prostitution, and
of soliciting a prostitute. Years before the tech mogul met
the financier pedophile I mean, are you again this is
all after the fact. Keep that in mind when you're
thinking about Bill Gates and his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
I can't strike that point home enough, folks, I really can't.
This dude, Bill Gates is an absolute piece of shit
scumbag runs around acting like he's this great guy trying
to help the world, trying to fix the world, trying
to save the world. Bitch, you can't even save your
own marriage. You can't even save yourself. How are you
gonna save the rest of us? Go back onto your
yacht and shut your yap. I had several dinners with him,
hoping that what he said about getting billions of philanthropy
for global health through contacts he had might emerge. When
it looked like that wasn't real, what wasn't a real thing?
That relationship ended, Gates said, Oh yeah, I'm sure we
all believe you, bully boy Gates, pocket protector Gates, mister
pencil neck, dorky ass, nerdy ass Bill Gates. We all
believe you. Pal. It is an absolute joke, Okay. The
way he's trying to frame this, the way he's trying
to act like, well, it was just a couple of
dinners and no big deal. That's bullshit, absolute bullshit, my opinion.
Gates spokesperson told Insider in June that Gates had absolutely
no business partnership or personal friendship with Epstein, and any
meetings between the two were about philanthropy again, using your
charity as a shield. I got this charity, I'll wrap
myself in it and I won't be able to be attacked.
We just met because it was business. So of all
the people on the planet to do business with, you
chose a level three sex offender to try and get
money from. Huh do you have no There's nobody else
that you could drain a couple of bucks from. Here's
an idea. Open your checkbook and write a check yourself,
you epic dick wad. It is extremely disappointing that there
have been so many lies published about the cause, the circumstances,
and the timeline of Bill gates divorce, the spokesperson said.
The rumors and speculations surrounding mister Gates are becoming increasingly absurd,
and it's unfortunate that people who have little to no
knowledge are being characterized as sources. And of course there
would be pushback, right, he was never going to just
acquiesce to the fact that him and Bill Gates were
palaining around. I mean him and Jeffrey Epstein were palain around.
He's definitely trying to deny that, right, That's what he's
trying to do distance himself. So he's going to pooh
pooh those sources. He's going to say that those sources
are incorrect. They have no idea what was going on,
And as long as they're unnamed source, he has a
leg to stand on. Right, he can argue that these people,
they might not even exist. This is my wife trying
to throw a wrench into the divorce. That could be
something he says. But again, he's been proven to be
a liar. Now, so once you're proven to be a liar,
it's very hard for anyone to be like, oh, oh yeah,
let's just believe what Bill Gates has to say. Didn't
come up correct about his relationship with Epstein, wasn't upfront
about it, none of that, So now why should we
believe you about anything. Cooper also asked Gates if he
had regrets about recent allegations that he engaged in workplacements behavior,
though the billionaire did not provide extensive comment responding to
those claims. Certainly everyone does have regrets, but it's a
time of reflection and at this point I need to
go forward. My work is very important to me within
the family, will heal as best we can and learn
from what's happened. Talk about a non answer, bro, did
you or did you not a sail women in the office?
Were you or were you not engaging in extra marital
affairs at the office? Were you or were you not
switching cars when you got to the office to go
and see your gumat Those are all questions that need
to be asked. Nobody wants to do that kind of questioning, though, right.
Everybody wants to keep their access to Bill Gates. In June,
four Microsoft employees accused Gates of being an office bully
whose catchphrase was that's the stupidest fucking idea I've ever heard,
and claimed he pursued sexual affairs with employees and journalists. Now,
the bully part right, As far as being a dick
in the office, we all got to deal with that.
How many of us have had bosses who were real dickheads.
I get that, you know whatever, I'm not going to
dive too much into that, but sexually harassing people or
using your position of power to demand sex or anything else.
You're a piece of shit. You shouldn't be in a
position of power, and any sort of a company moving
forward should keep that in mind before having you as
part of it. And I don't care how rich you are.
Go swim around in your billions and trillions of dollars
and leave the rest of us alone. You sick bastard.
Gates's reputation as a hot tempered boss began not long
after he launched the tech giant Microsoft with childhood friend
Paul Allen in nineteen seventy five. Insider reported a spokesperson
for the billionaire has denied he mistreated employees. A former
Microsoft executive who spoke on a condition of an anonymity,
told the outlet that having a meeting with Bill was
just an opportunity to get yelled at, so I tried
to avoid that. Gates would even allegedly track his employees
by memorizing their license plates. According to the outlet, Maria Clowey,
a former Microsoft board member, said a person like Bill
Gates thinks the usual rules of behavior don't apply to
him and accuse him of being unreceptive to suggestions about
improving diversity. Well, of course, these are the kind of
people that will tell you about diversity. These are the
kind of people that will engage in censorship. But when
it comes to themselves, their own behavior, the sky's the
limit for their scum baggery. They can do what they want,
act like they want, talk like they want, treat people
how they think they should be treated, when in reality,
everything they do is ass backwards and everything that they
do is for their own personal gain. Clowe said that
Gates behaved as if he was the smartest person in
the room and that diversity was not something Gates was
interested in hearing about. Well, I don't doubt that he
acted like the smartest person in the room. All of
these Silk con Valley people think they're the smartest person
in the room, Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, all of them.
You're not gonna have one of these guys pop up
that's not a narcissist thinks he's the smartest, most ingenious
person to ever walk the earth. She said that when
female executives would suggest diversity initiatives, Gates would allegedly respond
with Are you trying to effan destroy the company? A
spokesperson for Gates told Insider that Clowe's allegations are a
gross mischaracterization. Gates' relationship and encounters with employees have long
been a topic of discussion surrounding the billionaire. The Outlet
noted French Gates yourself was an employee at Microsoft, having
been been hired as a product manager in nineteen eighty
seven when the billionaire first asked her out months after
flirting with her at a conference dinner. So, I guess
Bill Gates doesn't go by the the old saying of
don't dip your pen in company in Huh, Bill Gates
has had a pattern of this is where he met
his wife. If you think that he stopped messing around
in the office after he met his wife, I got
a bridge to sell you in the middle of the Sahara.
People like this. This is how they live. They feel
like the rules do not apply to them. In two
thousand and six, Bill Gates allegedly asked a female Microsoft
employee out to dinner in an email after attending a
presentation she had given. The New York Times reported, if
this makes you uncomfortable, pretend it never happened, Gates wrote
in the email, obtained by The New York Times. Oh, yeah,
because that's exactly what some employee could do, right. Oh,
Bill Gates wants to go out with me. He wants
to hang out, But I'm gonna tell him no, and
there'll be no repercussions. Yeah, okay, Sure, here's an idea. Rich,
powerful married men, leave these chicks alone. Go home, hang
out with your wife, and take it fucking easy. A
Gates Foundation employee told the outlet that the billionaire asked
her out on a date while they were at a
cocktail party in New York. I want to see you.
Will you have dinner with me? Gates allegedly told the woman.
In the nineteen ninety two biography Hard Drive, Bill Gates
and the Making of the Microsoft Empire, author James Wallace
revealed Gates had an alleged affair with a married woman
thirteen years older than him when he was twenty seven
years old. So this dude's been out, you know, skirt
chasing forever, being involved with a married woman, cheating on
his own wife. So we see the kinds of character
this man possesses. And you know, folks, no matter how
much money you have, it can't fix what's broken morally.
If you are morally broken, if your moral compass does
not work, all the money in the world is not
going to fix that. You're still gonna be a scumbag.
You're still gonna cheat on your wife. You're still gonna
cheat on your chick. His alleged affair was with the
wife of an Osborne computer executive who lived abroad. According
to the biography, Gates himself admitted to frequenting the area
centered on Washington Street between Boylston Street and Kneeland Street
in a nineteen ninety four interview he did with Playboy magazine.
Just because I went there, it doesn't mean I engaged
in everything that was going on, Gates said. I ate pizza,
red books, and watch what was going on. I went
to the dinners. Oh yeah, I'm sure that's all that happened.
You were just a roach in the rushes. Were you
just to fly on the wall, mister Gates. Mister Wholsome
never took part in anything untowards. Wallace claimed to Insiders
that gates pench for socializing with women remained even after
he started dating Melinda Gates in nineteen eighty seven. Gates
was allegedly known to invite friends to swim naked at
his bachelor pad and Laurelhurst, where he rounded up dancers
from local all new nightclubs. Wallace said, yeah, kind of
like you know the naked volleyball player in Martha's vineyard
over there. Huh, Alan Dershowitz. What's with all of these
so called elites wanting to run around naked? What's would
all of these people trying to have their meat flap
in the wind? Here's an idea. Put on some clothes,
shut the fuck up, and try not to be a
disgusting imbecile. I don't know if he physically transported them
or if he just told them to show up, Wallace
told the outlet. Robert X. Cringely, who wrote a popular
computer gossip column for Info World, told Insider that Gates
was allegedly often inebriated at tech events and after parties,
and that he got drunk pretty easily. That doesn't shock me.
Highly doubt that Bill Gates built up the tolerance throughout
school by doing keg stands like the rest of us.
Highly doubt he was shotgunning forty ounces of sane IDEs.
Of or old as a child. Highly doubt any if
that was occurring. So yeah, I'm pretty sure it probably
only takes a beer or a sprinterer of wine to
get mister billy boy nice and drunk. All of us
will have been at some affair where Bill was clearly impaired.
He was happier drunk, cringely, said Gates, then thirty three,
took a helicopter to see Le Arc ski resort in
the French Alps for an international sales meeting from Microsoft
in the summer of nineteen eighty eight, where he was
allegedly caught lying on top of a woman on the lawn.
What does that even mean? Lying on top of a woman.
He's lying there like an inanimate object on top of
this lady. I know the dude's weird and all, but
what does that even mean? The pair were just snuggling
after Gates joined his employees for drinks in his Swiss
chalet and partied until the early morning. Dan Graves, a
former Microsoft Microsoft export manager, told Inside Her So he's
laying there on the lawn and having a snuggle with
some lady who's not his wife. Everything's all good. I mean,
that's the kind of shit that happened to me in
high school. One time I woke up in my friend's
front lawn with no pants on, just my boxers. So
is that what Bill Gates is up to when he's
this rich billionaire strajillionaire guy running around still getting drunk
and waking up on their friend's lawns. After he started
dating Melinda, Gates allegedly struggled to commit to her, and
she was allegedly aware of his womanizing. The outlet reported
the couple even broke up for at least a year
early in their relationship. Bill wanted to be married, but
he didn't know whether he could actually commit to it
and have Microsoft, Melinda said in an interview for the
Netflix docuseries Inside Bill's Brain to Coding Bill Gates. Even
after marrying Melinda Gates told Time magazine in nineteen ninety
seven that he still went on annual vacations to the
outer banks of North Carolina with his ex girlfriend and Winblad,
the software entrepreneur whom he had dated from nineteen eighty
four to nineteen eighty seven. Oh yeah, go ahead and
go and tell your wife do me a favor. Here's
a little bit of homework for you. Fellas, Go and
tell your wife that you're going to spend weekends with
your ex girlfriend at some beach and see how quickly
you get your ass beat. Is this guy for real?
This dude's out here married like Vito s Bata four.
You're a married man, and he's out here messing with
other women, going on vacations with other women like his
wife is just okay with it. Bill and Melinda Gates'
personal affairs have been managed by Watermark Estate Management since
at least two thousand and one, which would allegedly arrange
Gates' annual beach trips with Windblad. The couple officially divorced
on Monday after twenty seven years of marriage, just months
after the couple first announced their split in May. Cooper
had started the interview on Wednesday intended to discuss the
recent surge of the Delta Varian of COVID nineteen by
asking about gates divorce and its effects on the Bill
and Melinda Gates Foundation. I don't know enough about any
of that to even get into it. Like I don't
follow what Bill Gates Foundation is up to. I don't
follow what they're doing. I just don't care enough to
follow it. One thing I can tell you is this,
I don't have to follow it to know that Bill
Gates is an absolute piece of shit. It's definitely a
very sad milestone. Melinda is a great person, and that
partnership that we had coming to an end is a
source of great personal sadness. Gates said, we are communicating
and working at the foundation, and so oh, that partnership
we're going to try and continue. The Foundation has said
Bill Gates and Melinda French Gates would continue working together
as its trustees for two years on a trial basis.
So we'll see how that works out. Husband ex wife,
acrimonious split. They're gonna work together, Okay, I'd like to
see that happen. Melinda has incredible strengths that she brings
that help the Foundation be better. We always enjoyed our
work together. The two of us can go out and
work with leaders and help build the organization, and so
that would definitely be the best thing for the Foundation.
And you know what, we'll see, Okay, I highly doubt
that's going to occur. I highly doubt that it's gonna
be this rosy little group where everything's fine, and well
I'd look for a split there coming as well. All right, folks,
well there you have it. I mean, you know, the
Bill Gates situation is evolving, but we all know everybody
listening to this podcast knows that their relationship is even
deeper than what we know. Now, Keep digging, keep on digging,
because there's more there. Bill Gates and Jeffrey Epstein certainly
weren't just discussing a couple of bucks. What they were discussing,
I have no idea, but one thing is certainly for sure.
