These two guys go back and forth attempting to tell a story but never get anywhere. Epstein emails, we know this tiny part, it’s really Ana int, but it doesn’t lead anywhere.

Apple Podcasts2Decent enough 12United Statesa year ago - The type of journalism we need
If there was ever the right time for this podcast, it’s right now. Disclosure is not only fun and entertaining but well-researched and informative. It draws back the curtain on one of the ways journalists hold our government responsible and accountable and reminds us that the government works for us, the people. In a time that values a quick story rather than a well-researched one, Disclosure manages to do both.
