Former President Bill Clinton has a new job, and it’s not with Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.
Clinton has signed a lucrative deal with iHeartMedia to start a podcast in 2021 “built on his gift for storytelling.”
There remains a growing scandal involving Clinton’s friendship with billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. IN the age of the #MeToo movement, there is a credible rape accusation against him. And despite the rise of “cancel culture” somehow Clinton has remained largely unscathed.
“The podcast is inspired by President Clinton’s belief that the purpose of his work in public service is to give people the opportunity to live their best life story,” Craig Minassian, a spokesman for the Clinton Foundation, said.
“The show will be built on his gift for storytelling, his ability to explain complex issues in a relatable way and showcase his wide-range of interests and well-known intellectual curiosity through conversations about the ideas and events that continue to shape his work and our world.”
The news followed an earlier announcement that Hillary Clinton had also signed a lucrative deal for her own podcast at iHeartMedia, which will launch later this year.
Critics pounced on the news on social media.
If it’s about his trips on the Lolita express I’m all in, otherwise it’s a hard pass.
