This is Andrew Ross Sorkin, the founder of Dealbook.
Every year, I interview some of the world's most influential leaders across politics,
culture, and business at the Dealbook Summit, a live event in New York City.
On this year's podcast, you'll hear my unfiltered conversations with Gavin Newsom,
the CEO of Palantir and Anthropic, and Erica Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk.
Listen to Dealbook Summit wherever you get your podcasts.
From the New York Times, I'm Rachel Abrams and this is The Daily.
The latest release of files related to the sex offender Jeffrey Epstein left key questions about his rise to power and his connections to the president unanswered.
Today,
my colleague David Enrich explains how he and a team of reporters worked to fill in those mysteries and reveal the truth about Jeffrey Epstein's origins.
It's Tuesday, December 23rd.
David Enverich, welcome to the show.
Thanks for having me.
David, I think this is probably your...
fourth or fifth appearance on the show this year to talk about Jeffrey Epstein and this time we're having you back
because on Friday there was obviously this massive file released from the Justice Department that as far
as I understand it did not really advance our understanding of Jeffrey Epstein or his crimes or the people in his orbit.
Can you tell us what you think the biggest takeaways were?
It's a hard question
because there were not huge takeaways and we got lots of bits of incremental color and detail that reinforced the deep depravity of Epstein's crimes and the horrible things he was doing.
