Podcaster Tim Dillon Recounts His ‘Lovely Experience’ With Andrew Tate And Brother Tristan

Podcaster Tim Dillon recounted a “lovely experience” he had with Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan Tate at a steakhouse in Bucharest, Romania, as the brothers now face extradition from the U.S. to the U.K. to face 59 charges of rape, human trafficking, child porn, and other crimes.

“These Tate brothers can’t catch a break these days, huh?” Dillon began on Saturday’s show. “You know, I met them in Romania. I interviewed them on the Patreon, and this was years ago, and they were lovely and they took me to a steakhouse. I was in Romania to do a gig…and I hit up the Tates, and I said, ‘You know, you have any recs, any recommendations?’ And they go, ‘We know who exactly who you are, we’ll pick you up from the airport.’ And they did.”

Dillon continued:

And they came in their Rolls Royces, and they truly were — now I know they’re accused of raping, human trafficking, whatever, but let me just say my piece first, and then I’ll get to that, I’ll get to that. They were truly lovely, we had a lovely meal, we went to their home, we did a podcast, they were lovely people. Do I, can I like, am I like saying they’re pure of spirit? I don’t know. I’m just saying my personal experience with them — “They’re accused of choking women, sometimes until they passed out, then raping them.” Again, not good, that’s from The New York Times, my producer highlighting that. I understand that, I’m getting to that, and I appreciate you highlighting that, as I talk about how lovely our dinner was, thank you very much for doing that. We are against that here at the Tim Dillon Show, choking women until they pass out and then raping them. Obviously wrong, we get it…now I’ve never been for it.

“We want justice for the women or whatever,” Dillon said. “I mean, and I don’t mean to minimize it when I say ‘whatever.’ I don’t really know what’s going on over there, I mean because this has been a saga for years with them. They keep arresting them, they keep going there, they’re running this ‘trafficking ring’ and then they keep popping up again in Miami in a nightclub.”

Dillon added, “So, I don’t know what’s going on. So, are they running a trafficking ring and are they like worldwide international traffickers and rapists or whatever? I don’t know what’s happening. If that’s the case, lock them up, throw away the key, like by all means. But they were lovely to me at a steakhouse in Romania. They picked up the bill.”
