Epstein's Publicist Pen Pal wth Jessica Bennett

Épisode 11

vendredi 20 mars 2026 • Durée 44:25

Over the final decade of Epstein’s life, former A-list Hollywood publicist Peggy Siegal helped him reintegrate into high society. She worked for studios with Oscar aspirations, throwing lavish parties and being an ultimate connector. But she was also working for Epstein, in a way, as he was funding her travel and keeping her close for information. Journalist Jessica Bennett, who recently profiled and spoke with Siegal, chats with Elise and Jena about what the files reveal about this relationship. Mentioned in this Episode Jessica Bennett, Journalist and Author NYMag: The Grand Dame of the Epstein Files NPR: Richard Kahn testifies he was “not aware” of Epstein crimes LAT: Andersen Auditor Details Shredding of Enron Papers Fortune: Epstein Bankrolled Epstein Mistresses Email us at eliseandjena [at] gmail [dot] com Join our Patreon community at Patreon.com/EpsteinFilesBookclub Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, we get to the heart of the story. Philosopher Kate Manne recounts the harrowing stories of the women pseudonymed Katie Johnson and Jane Doe 4.
