In this explosive Watchdog on Wall Street episode, we uncover the staggering scope of Jeffrey Epstein’s hidden banking empire. From Wells Fargo to Deutsche Bank, more than 20 major financial institutions funneled money through his complex network of shell entities—long after his crimes were public. Discover how hedge funds, crypto deals, and even billion-dollar “advisory fees” kept his operations afloat, and why ethics seemed optional for the banks involved.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast, explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it will have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
I got mad. There's a bloody ongoing series here on
the Watchdog on Wall Street podcast. Yeah, Eyes Wide Shut
was a documentary Part two. All got a whole bunch,
a whole bunch of new info on Jeffrey Epstein and
his banking ties. You know what's fascinating to me is

(00:37):
that many of these big banks went out of their
way to cancel conservatives and conservative groups because I don't know,
Biden told them to whatever it may be. But they
wouldn't cancel Jeffrey Epstein anyway.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Ah.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Yes, Epstein's banking and an investment activities. This is in
the years before his twenty nineteen death, more widespread than
previously known.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Am I surprised n twenty twenty banks held accounts for
Epstein and entities related to him.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Oh yeah, Wells Fargo, TD Bank, First Bank, Pheretrico, Yeah,
JP Morgan. They actually closed his accounts in twenty thirteen. Again,
this is well after he was indicted and nailed for

(01:44):
going after young girls and minors all that good stuff.
The business was just too important at that point in time.
Then JP Morgan said, Okay, the heats tomorrow heart on us.
We'll move your stuff over to Deutsche Bank. And I'm
sure they got some sort of kickback, comes to that,
because Deutsche Bank didn't cut him off until two thousand
and eighteen. Yeah, oh yeah. Epstein moved at least sixty

(02:10):
million into Honeycomb Partners and investment fund, got out thirteen
point five million from a hedge fund run by Paul
Tudor Jones, sold fifteen million worth of a private company
to crypto investor Blockchain Capital. I go on and on
and on here because one of the reasons why some

(02:31):
of these small banks and hedge funds and little investment
groups there is they don't really track track where the
money's going. It's not like that they are a bank.
Epstein had bank accounts associated with a complex web of
entities that he used for his personal and business activities,

(02:51):
including sending payments to women, managing his real estate, and
running his financial advisory business. And mind you a financial
advisory business. I own a financial advisory business. You know
that he owned a financial advisory business and he never
ever ever made a trade spending I don't know, I

(03:15):
don't know made a help a lot of money though, Yeah,
that's for sure, boy Leon Black?

Speaker 3 (03:20):
What did he what did me on blackpayan?

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Wow? Hundred and fifty yeah, one hundred and fifty million, Yeah,
one hundred and fifty eight million dollars in advisory fees?
Oh yeah, a Rothschild banking family. Uh. The twenty five
million dollar consulting contract. Hey, you want to go and

(03:44):
you could take a look at all of this. Like
I said, I own a financial firm and it made
these banks.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
Well, you know, we can't real we could track all
this stuff.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
Let me tell you what we don't have at Markowski
Investments as for clients are dirt bags like Epstein. Sorry sorry, No,
we don't take dirt bags like Epstein on as clients.
I don't care how much money they have. Again, these

(04:19):
are institutions that at no ethics, ethical bypass at birth
for the like of them. But again, you want to
choose to do business with them, that's up to you.
That's up to you. But no, no, that they were
willing to do business with Jeffrey Epstein. That's it okay

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
