We’ve skimmed over hundreds of Jeffrey Epstein stories over the past week but not one of them that raised this salient fact: What was Epstein’s favorite movie? To find that out, you’ve got to go back a few years — to the Mother Jones article from Oct. 9, 2020 by Leland Nally entitled “I Called Everyone In Jeffrey Epstein’s Little Black Book.” Unlike the social media influencers who went to the White House last Friday, Nally, a writer and filmmaker, used an unredacted copy of the book to call everyone in it — not only the rich socialites who patronized Epstein, but even the gardeners employed by him and the massage therapists who worked over the pervert.
It turns out his favorite picture was a 1970 release called The Man From O.R.G.Y., based on a bizarre, James Bond-knockoff sex comedy novel by the late Theodore Mark Gottfried, writing under the pseudonym Ted Mark. “It’s about a con man who travels the world under the guise of being a ‘sex researcher’ in order to spy for the US government,” Nally writes. “The novel begins with protagonist Steve Victor in Damascus for the kickoff of an ‘extensive survey of Arab and Oriental sex practices.’ There he is approached by a US diplomat and invited to the embassy. In short order, Victor is recruited to spy for the US government.”
The 1970 movie travels around the world to Paris, London, Barcelona, Hollywood and New York, but in reality, all of it was shot in and around San Juan, Puerto Rico. Victor is played by Robert Walker Jr., the son of the movie star Robert Walker and his short-term wife, the famed Hollywood actress Jennifer Jones, who left him to marry producer David O. Selznick. Victor duels Mafioso and spies of every color while traveling from brothel to brothel, seeking three women, each with a “mouse” tattooed upon their left butt cheek. The most elaborate of these brothels — the House of All Nations, said to be in Lisbon — is under the thumb of a female impersonator (Lynne Carter), masquerading as Phyllis Diller, Marlene Dietrich and Bette Davis!
You can’t find the movie on YouTube — no doubt, the CIA goons ordered it scrubbed — but a clip remains there from an admirer of Lynne Carter, sashaying long before RuPaul!
Sidney W. Pink, who had worked for many years in burlesque, produced the “pink” movie, a comedown from his heyday in the 1950s toying around with 3-D (Bwana Devil) and the surreal CineMagic process, used to mirror the surfaces of Mars in The Angry Red Planet. He had turned to pornography after working a spell in Denmark and Sweden, where he also produced the Godzilla rip-off Reptilicus at a fraction of what it would have cost in Hollywood.
As director for The Man From O.R.G.Y., Pink tabbed a veteran hand from Great Britain, James Hill, best known for the African wildlife saga Born Free. Hill had worked on the front lines as a documentary filmmaker in World War II. If you’ve seen the 1963 Steve McQueen adventure The Great Escape, you’ll have a sense of James Hill. The blind character played by Donald Pleasence, Lt. Col. Collin Blythe, is patterned after Hill.
In case you’re wondering, O.R.G.Y. stands for the Organization for the Rational Guidance of Youth. Obviously, Epstein took his mission quite rationally and seriously — at least two or three times a day!
A real James Bond plot would come alive. Hear all about it on this Edge of Wonder Live with Ben Chasteen and Rob counts.
With government audits taking place, questions no one had considered have come to the surface. Could Fort Knox actually be empty? Could there be more gold inside than originally thought? Surprisingly, the last time anyone audited Fort Knox was in 1974, right when the gold standard was eliminated.
Ian Fleming, the creator of the James Bond spy novels, wrote a plot involving high-level people stealing gold out of the vault. Could this really have happened?
With the president of the United States not having access to Fort Knox’s contents, who does have access? Who has the clearance to go inside? A small group of politicians and media outlets have been allowed into certain parts of Fort Knox as recently as 2017, but there’s a lot that’s still unknown.
America First radio host Sebastian Gorka and Chris Kohls, better known as the creator behind the Mr. Reagan videos, debate which is the best of the James Bond movies. That’s a tough assignment, considering this is one of the longest-lasting film franchises of all time, continuing uninterrupted for nearly 60 years. All told, the series encompasses 25 different action adventures.
While there’s certainly plenty of room to debate, Gorka and Kohls both favor From Russia With Love, from 1963, as the crowning achievement of the series. Here, you can revisit the highlights as Sean Connery’s James Bond, British M16 Agent 007, travels to Turkey to help a Soviet consulate clerk to defect.
Along the way, he must battle the villains from Spectre at every turn. Lotte Lenya plays one of the adversaries, but this second Bond picture — following the debut film Dr. No — really began to exhibit the amazing stuntwork, stunning sights and spectacular cinematography that became hallmarks of the entire series.
Our only complaint: The opening song, credited to Matt Monro, isn’t as memorable or catchy as Bond hits that came later. Shirley Bassey’s torchy songs — Goldfinger and Diamonds Are Forever — defined James Bond. Forever.
Chris Kohls, aka Mr. Reagan on YouTube, joins Sebastian Gorka to talk about the greatest movie character in history…James Bond. The two celebrate 60 years of superb toxic masculinity.
We’ve run a lot of coverage about underground tunnels lately. Today, we present this report from TheLipTV that describes tunnels built in the 1970s leading from the underground grotto at the Los Angeles Playboy Mansion to the nearby homes of several stars, including Warren Beatty, Jack Nicholson, James Caan and Kirk Douglas. Beatty has given interviews where he categorically denies these tunnels ever existed. But here, Playboy itself not only shows the tunnels appearing on the original architectural blueprints, but also offers photographs of their construction, so it appears Beatty has perhaps been fudging the facts just a bit.
Why bring this up now? We saw a report on Twitter showing Darren Metropoulos is now filling in the tunnels. Who’s he? The son of Dean Metropoulos, the billionaire whose many acquisitions over the years included Hostess Twinkies, Chef Boyardee, Bumble Bee Tuna and Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer. Dean and Darren long ago bought the mansion alongside the Playboy Mansion and eventually they added the Playboy Mansion as well, although they cut a deal with Hugh Hefner allowing him to remain there so long as he lived. Now that he is dead, they are filling in the tunnels — the same as Jeffrey Epstein did, spending some $29 million for that purpose on Little St. James Island.
The Playboy Mansion tunnels were in use mostly in the 1970s and 1980s. When Hefner married Kimberly Conrad in 1989 — the 1989 Playmate of the Year who eventually gave birth to two of Hefner’s children — she insisted these tunnels be blocked off. So while they still existed after 1989, their heyday was already over.

Which brings us to a Q post from Nov. 20, 2017, touching upon Hugh Hefner and his role working for the CIA, running sex honeypots. We know many still believe the Washington Post, which called Q followers “deranged conspiracy theorists.” But we’re more inclined to heed Q here, or at least entertain the meanings of the Q posts.
Here’s the post we mentioned, No. 160:

You guys are missing the importance of Hugh Hefner! Think of it this way.
>Hugh invites over celeb/politician
>Hugh offers them “something younger”
>Hugh offers them a “safe space” to do it in
>Hugh tapes encounter
>Sends tape to CIA
>CIA has person by the balls for LIFE.
This is MAJORLY IMPORTANT to what has been keeping people in control for so long!

What’s a honeypot? Check out the Urban Dictionary. The No. 1 definition is: A sweet tasting pussy.
Do we bring that up to be scatological? No. We bring it up because this is the week we lost Pussy Galore with the death, at age 94, of Honor Blackman, best remembered for her role as Goldfinger’s seductive aide in the 1964 James Bond movie.

So bear in mind, when we advise folks to follow the White Rabbit, we are not just making references to Lewis Carroll and ALICE IN WONDERLAND. We are also making references to Bunnies, and no one had a bigger warren of Bunnies than Hugh Hefner. It should not come as a surprise that this warren led to a deep grotto and a network of underground tunnels or burrows!
Juan O’Savin talks about the new James Bond movie. It was supposed to be released 4-10-20: the numerical code for Donald John Trump. But now, with the coronavirus, the movie — No Time To Die! — will be released instead in the fall. More from Jennifer Mac.
