1A PODCAST: "The Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Their Fight for Justice" (11-5-25)

Recommended Listening: In the 1A Podcast's latest episode, Michelle Harven offers an update on the Jeffrey Epstein story in light of the publication of Virginia Giuffre's posthumous memoir, NOBODY'S GIRL. Here's 1A's description of this episode:

"Virginia Giuffre’s memoir, 'Nobody’s Girl,' is again shining a light on justice for the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

"The Department of Justice says Epstein died by suicide in his jail cell while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking. Over the summer, she was moved to a minimum security prison in Texas after meeting privately with Trump administration officials.

"In the book, Giuffre recounts how she was lured into Epstein’s world after meeting Maxwell at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago spa at the age of 16. She was then subjected to years of abuse where she was sex trafficked, including to England’s former Prince Andrew, whose title was revoked last week in part due to these allegations.

"Giuffre took her own life earlier this year. Even before her memoir was released posthumously, she was one of Epstein’s most outspoken accusers. We sit down with Giuffre’s brother and sister-in-law about her story and their call for justice. We also speak with Marijke Chartouni, another Epstein survivor who says she was recruited in 2000 and was sexually assaulted by Epstein."

Senator Lindsay Graham: "We're Killing All the Right People"

"So I just want to say, I feel good about the Republican Party. I feel good about where we're going as a nation. We're killing all the right people, and we're cutting your taxes. Trump is my favorite president. We've run out of bombs. We didn't run out of bombs in World War II!"

Mr. Ulmer's Cabinet of Wonder: Edgar G. Ulmer and the Cinema of High Strangeness


Last year, I was invited by Adam Sayne and Serfiel Stevenson (hosts of the 
CONSPIRINORMAL podcast) to speak at their annual STRANGE REALITIES conference where I delivered a talk entitled "Mr. Ulmer's Cabinet of Wonder: Edgar G. Ulmer and the Cinema of High Strangeness." Since this November 3rd, 2024 presentation draws upon at least two of the chapters in my latest book, HOLLYWOOD HAUNTS THE WORLD: AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE CINEMA OF OCCULTED TABOOS (published by Headpress), I decided to post the lecture on my YouTube channel to whet your appetite for the debut of HOLLYWOOD HAUNTS THE WORLD!

Today marks the publication date of my latest book, HOLLYWOOD HAUNTS THE WORLD: AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE CINEMA OF OCCULTED TABOOS, courtesy of Headpress. You can order the book HERE or HERE!

The secret history of the world can be decoded through film.

In
Hollywood Haunts the World: An Investigation into the Cinema of Occulted Taboos, Robert Guffey deconstructs the most powerful taboos of the twentieth century (and the initial decades of the twenty-first century) by analyzing how disturbing and transgressive ideas involving Theosophy, Gnosticism, Freemasonry, Darwinian Evolution, Surrealism, Freudian and Jungian psychology, race relations, paranoia, UFOs, xenophobia, political conspiracies, the JFK assassination, virtual reality, and alternate dimensions have been reflected in films―both American and foreign―throughout the past one hundred years.

Popular films and TV shows that fall under Robert Guffey’s cutting-edge scrutiny include Guillermo del Toro’s Nightmare Alley, Larry Wade Carell’s Girl Next, Matt Shakman’s WandaVision, Anthony and Joe Russo’s Avengers: Infinity War, Scott Derrickson’s Dr. Strange, Steven Spielberg’s Ready Player One, Jennifer Kent’s The Babadook, Christopher Nolan’s Inception, Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut, Vince Gilligan’s Breaking Bad, Oliver Stone’s JFK, Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks, John Carpenter’s They Live, Alan Pakula’s The Parallax View, John Frankenheimer’s The Manchurian Candidate, Jack Arnold’s It Came from Outer Space, Edgar G. Ulmer’s The Man from Planet X, Robert Florey’s Murders in the Rue Morgue, Buster Keaton’s Sherlock Jr., and Victor Sjöström’s The Phantom Carriage.

Editorial Reviews

"In Hollywood Haunts the World, Robert Guffey takes his readers for a trip behind the magic curtain to reveal the true Wizards at work―those behind the lenses, making magic and moving the secret levers. To this end, Guffey plays the role of Toto, tearing the curtain aside to reveal these flesh and bone Wizards of the military-industrial-entertainment complex, and the occult role they play in influencing our inner dreams and everyday realities." -Adam Gorightly, author of Saucers, Spooks, and Kooks and The Shadow Over Santa Susana: Black Magic, Mind Control, and the Manson Family Mythos

"Hollywood has truly haunted the world. So too should this book, one of the best ever written on American cinema." -Gary D. Rhodes, from his foreword

"Jaw-dropping and essential." -Alan Moore on the author’s book, Operation Mindfuck

"Robert Guffey’s writing has impressed, entertained, and enlightened me pretty much since I first met him. My suggestion? If he wrote it, read it.” -Jack Womack, author of Random Acts of Senseless Violence

THE EXPECTANT MOTHER DISINFORMATION HANDBOOK: The First Award-Nominated Work of Literature Grown Inside a Laboratory!

I can proudly state that NO AI was used to create my latest Wonderland Award-nominated book, THE EXPECTANT MOTHER DISINFORMATION HANDBOOK! No, indeed... with the help of the most cutting-edge techniques of genetic engineering and nanotechnology combined, I endeavored to GROW the book inside my subterranean laboratory after decades spent experimenting on various local plant cultures, small defenseless neighborhood pets, flora and fauna snatched from government-funded nature preserves located around the globe, and even the occasional unwilling human being. One night on All Hallows' Eve, when all the planets of the Milky Way aligned perfectly, I succeeded in completing my long sought-after goal by performing certain arcane, alchemical procedures that involved (among other rarefied techniques) reviving the corpse of Laura Palmer, experimenting on several giant Nephilim skeletons unearthed from a Sardinia cemetery at midnight, extracting precious drops of adrenochrome from the disembodied head of Jeffrey Epstein, confronting the psychoid manifestation of the Red Death from the outer edges of the superspectrum, and even more hermetic crimes against Nature.
