Taking It Back Ep. 98: Epstein Bombshells, Papal Power Plays & Trump’s Trade Triumph

In Episode 98 of Taking It Back, Zak Paine, Adel Nero, and Frankie Val come out swinging with hard-hitting commentary on a week of political and cultural shockwaves. Kicking off with the historic appointment of Cardinal Robert Prevost as the first American pope, the hosts debate whether this is a geopolitical milestone or just another establishment move by a left-leaning Vatican. Frank weighs in with the Catholic perspective, warning that the globalist agenda may now have a new pulpit.

The bulk of the episode is a deep dive into the Epstein file chaos. The team breaks down conflicting narratives between James Comer, Pam Bondi, and Kash Patel about whether the infamous files still exist, or have been destroyed. They debate whether Bondi’s “tens of thousands of videos” comment refers only to Epstein or hints at a massive blackmail network implicating elites around the world. James O’Keefe’s undercover revelation about Prince Andrew adds fuel to the fire, but the guys aren’t buying the mainstream hype, they want names, arrests, and real accountability.

With frustration building online, the hosts sound off on the wave of blackpilled pessimism plaguing the movement, pointing fingers at coordinated demoralization ops designed to erode faith and momentum. They call for discernment, unity, and a long-view approach to justice, while reminding listeners to stay sharp and stay engaged.

The episode wraps with coverage of Trump’s $6B trade win with the UK, how tariffs are reshaping America’s leverage, and what it will take to make these wins permanent. Smart, sarcastic, and no-holds-barred, Taking It Back once again pulls no punches in the fight for truth.
