| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Talking about this forced organ harvesting industry in China, you know, you and I have been looking at this issue for the better part of 20 years.
Um, there's very few people out there aside from some of these key researchers that I think both of us know.
Um, and this hot mic moment for me uh with Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin talking about achieving immortality through continual organ transplantation.
This is the first time I was talking about.
But it's in uh that was a surreal moment that I I honestly I'm still in a sense digesting many days after the fact.
What was your reaction?
I I was shocked.
Uh I mean, shocked, but also not shocked because I mean, we knew it was happening.
We'd known this is happening for a long time.
Uh it was kind of that moment where you're reporting on a murderer and you know a crime has been taking place, and then you get a video clip of the murderer bragging about how they did it and how they're happy they did it.
Like it was it was that kind of moment uh you know, for me.
And you know, Jan, I was actually thinking back.
I remember when I first started working for Epic Times back in 2006, again, you know, almost 20 years.
I remember you were one of the first people I met actually at Epic Times.
You know, you were helping train some of the journalists.
And I I think that was the same year that we broke the first stories on live organ harvesting in China.
