So here is a post from yesterday where the contributor raised the question of whether this horrific-sounding "Fatherhood" video is possibly that of John Podesta caught in the act of severely abusing a child. A number of people dismissed the notion, saying the man's accent sounded too Bostonian. However, I'd like to push back at this, based on the following observations:
-
This guy in the video is constantly yelling, so I would expect his accent to get animated as well. Podesta has a strong Chicago accent. Here is a video where at the 2:43 mark a voice expert explains how the "short a" in a Chicago accent can sound like that of a Bostonian. But the rest of this video explains the Chicago accent and you can really hear this in Podesta's voice. I grew up in the Chicago area and remember hearing people sounding like Podesta. This accent isn't as common as it once was, but he grew up there in the 1950's in the NW side, and so he was in the thick of cultural (white, middle class Catholic) Chicago.
-
Another interesting thing I heard: If you listen to the "Fatherhood" video, you can hear at the 0:11 mark that his voice cracks. But lo, at about the 0:23 mark in this video, you catch Podesta's voice crack during an exited response to a pushy Chris Matthews question. But also, you can just hear Podesta's basic voice quality and strong Chicago accent quite well.
-
At about the 0:12 marker in the "Fatherhood" video, after yelling the "What's my name?!?" question, it really sounds like the child screams "John!" To which the man responds, "My OTHER name - what do you call me?!?"
-
But the basic tonal quality, even though he is constantly yelling, sure in the hell sounds like it could be Podesta to me. He has an annoyingly wispy, high pitched voice, and the 1950's Chicago accent just adds to the irritation. I am hearing all of these qualities in this "Fatherhood" video. Albeit, if this kind of activity is where Podesta gets his greatest thrills, it makes sense to me that in this setting his voice will sound stronger and more powerful that usual.

Also, the original poster (muhxburner) is listed as only active for one day. So it seems this poster signed up specifically to present this particular lead. Hmmm... interesting. Could point to a possible leaker? Please chime in if you feel so inclined, muhxburner!
If anyone out there has access to professional grade voice matching software, could you please do a comparison of these two files?
At the risk of being completely trolled by worldcorpo (or muhxburner), I felt strong enough that I wanted to keep this thread alive. If this ends up being for real, it may be the smoking gun we've been waiting for. But if not, I certainly apologize in advance for wasting anyone's time.

Yes yes it is...asshattery. No reason NOT to comment in other thread. Wanted to revive the OMG is this JOHN without mentioning every video was analyzed and summarized in the original thread and included the very clear statement that the child screamed DARREN. Stop making excuses. This is purposeful diversion. New account waste of breath.

Quoting your post from yesterday:
"the child screams the man's real name. Darren or something...it's fairly clear and with a bit of cleaning up I'm pretty sure the name could be exactly identified."
Yesterday it was "Darren or something."
Today it's "clearly Darren" and "very clear statement that the child screamed DARREN." And your post is full of spelling errors and poorly written sentences. And you don't KNOW anything about the provenance of the video. You don't KNOW it's a diversion. And I'm an idiot. And you've reported me. And I engage in asshattery.
Give me a break.
And I listened to it again. Still sounds like JOHN to me.
I'm a reasonable guy, and appreciate constructive responses and will be the first to back off if this is proven to be a sham. So back off the language SVP.

I try never to be what is the word...let me think...oh yes, so certain that I assert an answer no one is ready to hear.
So by saying it sounds like DARREN (and then allowing that more clarity is possible with cleanup) I have avoided implanting asshattery like the title of the thread did. Fuck off you can think it's John all day long and you're welcome to.
You're probably the asshat spreading it around the internet. Not only that you have not even bothered to work with the logic of it. You're emotion trolling and it's useless. The Anon globe and Cyrillic text give it the fuck away. What part of that don't you fucking understand? Newfag to anon?
I reported the 5th reposting of the same fucking shit. NO reason to repost. NONE. Attention fag? Concern troll? Whatever reason you reposted, it's reported. That's all. You had something to say, work in the original thread, otherwise it seems like you reposted so no one would see the videos were analyzed and that's asshattery.
I even listed the clues directly to trolling..either you're an idiot (HELLO YOU) or you're doing it on purpose. You're feelings are irrelevant.

Shill, troll or John Podesta / Alefartface much MAGABoomer? Let me guess, you're really from Oklahoma and not actually John Podesta getting all angry right now.

Oh fuck off. You really think you've got any legs? Any fucktard that is pushing fake shit like you are and spamming my inbox with your fuckery...and your only response is "ZOMG you're John Podesta"...why yes, as a matter of fact I am, and that's not my voice in the video and you're fucking being trolled and too fucking stupid to know it.

I wasn't inboxing you.

Anyone who feels the need to go through a person's post, avoid reading them and then exposing ignorance (if I need to tell you what KP means you don't need to be here.) of simple things like hotlinks...you fucking deserve whatever they do to you.
