Recorded on May 5 2026
Steve Yang sits down with Ryan Dawson of Ryan Dawson’s Anti-neocon Report for a detailed and controversial long form conversation on the Epstein files, the public demand for a clean “list,” and Ryan’s argument that the truth has to be reconstructed across millions of documents, emails, redactions, court records, victim accounts, and financial trails. Ryan explains how he first began following Jean-Luc Brunel before Epstein became a mainstream story, why he believes modeling agencies, donor networks, banks, intelligence interests, and geopolitical pressure points overlap, and how he separates stronger document trails from noise inside the files. The discussion moves into Iran, Israel, the Strait of Hormuz, market reactions, and Ryan’s claim that the timeline of conflict became intertwined with attention on the Epstein documents. Steve also asks Ryan directly about Epstein’s death, the lack of transparency, why some names are redacted, and why Ryan says viewers should not treat every file mention as proof. This is a document focused interview about allegations, power, geopolitics, finance, media framing, and the difficulty of separating credible evidence from speculation. #Millettian
