S4 - EP 10 - THE UNITED STATES OF BLACKMAIL VOL 2 - PART 2

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 10, Part 2.

We’re back in it.

In the final chapter of our dive into Whitney Webb’s One Nation Under Blackmail Vol 2., we move out of the smoky backrooms of the 20th-century mob and into the high-tech, high-def world of the modern technocracy. Volume 2, Part 2 is about the digital harvest.

We’re picking up right where the "stray cats" met - Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. This isn't just a story about a "creep" and his girlfriend; it’s a breakdown of the infrastructure that made them untouchable. We’re talking about the transition from physical polaroids in a safe to "algorithms in the cloud."

The poison for this episode is the Amaretto Sour.

• 2 oz amaretto (like Disaronno)
• 1 oz fresh lemon juice
• ½ oz simple syrup (optional, depending on how sweet you like it)
• 1 egg white (optional)
• Ice
• Cherry or orange slice if you’re feeling fancy

Add amaretto, lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white (if using) into a shaker without ice.  Shake it hard - this is a“dry shake” to get that foam right. Add ice, then shake again until chilled. Strain into a rocks glass over fresh ice.

Enjoy!
