Adios, Motherf***ers: Guilt-By-Epstein-Association Is Out of Control

from The Smerconish Podcast · host Joe Nocera, Michael Smerconish

The conversation also explores the Clintons’ depositions, the timeline of what people knew (and when), and whether the public release of millions of documents is serving justice or fueling indiscriminate shaming. Where’s the line between legitimate accountability and reputational destruction? And what lessons — if any — have we learned from past eras of public overreach?

Are we witnessing accountability — or hysteria? Michael welcomes Free Press senior editor Joe Nocera to unpack the growing fallout from the release of the Epstein files. As more names surface, the debate intensifies: Is this about proven wrongdoing, or has it become guilt by association? They discuss Nocera’s recent conversation with former Senator and Medal of Honor recipient Bob Kerrey, who found himself under scrutiny for a brief, years-old meeting with Jeffrey Epstein — and responded in characteristically blunt fashion, resigning from a company by saying "Adios, MF-ers." A candid, nuanced discussion about power, presumption of innocence, and the consequences of association in the Epstein era. Original air date 3 March 2026.
