- James English, The Anything Goes Show Ep71.
As a baby Michael Tarraga never left the hospital in the arms of his mother. She left him there the day he was born, with his twin brother. She also abandoned their two year old sister.
This is a story of what happened next and how a child without a family can be exploited, abused and sold from the age of 5, Michael was continually anally raped for half a crown, sold out by Bob and Ivy Woods who he had to call Mum and Dad.
Michael is now 70 years old and dying from COPD. Keen for his story to be told before he leaves this world - so that he and others can one day get peace and justice, but more importantly that this kind of horrific sexual abuse, happens to no other child.

I worked with Mick at sea about 12 years ago on a ship called the dea fighter, I was medic on the ship when mick was crushed underneath the ships stern, he was very lucky to survive. I had to treat him until we got him off on a chopper. I can't believe this. I watch all of your interviews james and I am in tota shock to see him on here. He was a very colourful character onboard that's for sure. I remember all of his stories. I never ever saw him after the accident he had and always wondered how he got on after that. I never knew his full life story but I knew he was a survivor. Really happy to see him on here.
Not ashamed to say I’m in absolute bits listening to this man. Heartbreaking!
Brutally honest yet he’s somehow kept hold of his humanity. Nothing but respect and yes, sympathy for Mike.
🙏🏼
@@JamesEnglish Tell him he is a bad ass
@@chuckhockey9464 he is a badass, he is the definition of strong. Wish he found the monsters when he was searching em
it's terrible what happened to this guy, I know somebody else who was passed around the political ppeeeddo ring
@@bob-g3e3x These U.K. men are bloody nasty and evil from the top down to the lowly bottom. And these leaders want to legalize this sh-t to satisfy their ego. If I was in his place I would find a way to get revenge.
It might sound stupid I'm 28 years old I took my abuser to court in 2017 and he got 11 years but I'm still so angry but this is the first person I could listen too before I couldn't here people talk about it but this hits me bad, thank you it's like hearing me talk, also thank you for give people a voice on this
You should sit down at home & put your story down on paper, it may help you to deal with it better. Hope your mind body & sole it more healthy now your abuser is in jail.
Such a clever and sensitive man. His strength of character shines through, the evil done to him didn’t define him. His goodness shows, in the fact he wants to help others. An insightful and caring person.
Well said Felicity

@Mike Hunt Disinformation and distraction away from protecting children from abuse
Hear Hear! What am amazing man!
andy best one name: Jimmy Savile. These predators can have hundreds of victims.
Micheal is a Good Friend of mine & the Guts it took to "Get this out there" id AWESOME ..... Micheal you are "DA MAN" .. I am proud to call you a good friend !!! The Evil he has endured is without doubt HORRIFIC but look at the guy it DOES NOT DEFINE HIM he is Clever, sensitive & a Very Caring guy His strength of character shines through, its Very hard to listen to but a must, the public has to know about these paedophile rings. GOD BLESS YOU Micheal ...
rubbish. a fantasist encouraged by liars like Jon Wedger who crafts his stories for each new audience.
@@andybest3284 He sounds honest to me. We all know this vile stuff goes on.
@andy best .... you are obviously a demented individual
@@Heather-xz3eo all these lazy cunts who soild themselves because they couldn't be bothered working now re-invent themselves as fictitious victims.
@@andybest3284 enjoy your blood money hell awaits the likes of you ..........oh wait a min this is where you came from isnt it daft lad
Excellent interview. The exposing of child sex abuse is the biggest story that will wake up humanity.
Thank God those day's are over it was so easy to abuse a child back then everyone swept it under the carpet. I'd say it died out round about the early 200's yes it still goes on today but not to extend of this as they can't away with it today like they did back then.
Maria, it is worse today. You need to research more.
Aside from the scamdemic; that represents the rape of humanity as a whole. This is NOT to deny the physical and emotional pain this poor man has gone through, but unless we push back hard; we'll be gone forever and our children will be left with no protectors.
@@sugarsundae3400it's worse than ever f.f.s., get a clue.
@@sugarsundae3400you are exquisitely ignorant if you actually think it’s less prevalent.
You need to wake up.
It’s far MORE prevalent.
He helped me with the death of my son. He had disclosed the year before he died he’d been raped age 7. By a family member. He was out of control most of his life with behavior issues. He died just 18 months ago age 39. Mike answered a lot of questions about things for me helped me understand he had time for most people. RIP unique lovely man. I’m sorry children are so badly treated by those they should trust. It’s a learning curve I didn’t expect to have to go through at my age,
Hope you ok where you are
No words for the horror your Lad kept down. God give you the strength to find the way..
I love how James actually listens to his guests without interrupting his guest.
A rare thing in modern journalism
We should be ashamed that people like this man still walk amongst us and Justice has failed them time and time again. I doubt I could read this book but buy it I will. This must be publicised. This must be stopped.
@Bill Hill Why are you appearing to attack Minoo Verdi's post? I don't see any attempt on their part to speak for you or about you? No mention, implied or otherwise, is made about the 'good' work that you do or do not do, so where is your beef?
Peace.
@@anthonytaylor9232 I get what he means he's just took her personally he's angry and sacrificing things to fight pedos. No one will know why he does what he does cos he's proud . Think about it. Why would he get annoyed? He doesn't realise it's not aimed at him.
You can lift the heaviest weights, fight the toughest fighter, climb the highest mountain... nothing will prepare you for the battle of life like this man has had to endure. May God bless your soul an grant you eternal peace in the next life my brother!
Thanks for this jimmy, such an eye opening pod cast that will never be open to the public ears 🤙

@Mike Hunt Disinformation and distraction away from protecting children from abuse. If you face down abusers wherever they are and take the rot out at the core... You get all the rot. Who are you protecting and why?
@Mike Hunt Troll
Louise Brookes interesting that Mike Hunt is in all the comments. It seems he has an axe to grind.
What god?
I believe this man 100% .we have no idea what some people have had to put up with in their lives
He is my dad
I hope that every copper who hears this cringes in shame for their cowardice.
They don't care. They are not like you and me. They are another kind of beings. 🌹
Frank Day the Police are in on it...they are the keepers of the secret!
@@AnaLuizaHella fuck the police
Lads 100% right look up the dalkey house of horrors im from Dublin and its the same over he
too right
What a phenomenally strong-willed and intelligent man you are Mike!
THANK YOU
We don't just need people like Mike to share their life experience with such brutal truth, we also need those that listen. So Thank you for doing what you do James ❤

Michael passed away.
RIP
What you went through as a four year old brought me to tears, heaven awaits you and hell awaits those evil bastards, not just the abusers but also those that ignored your cries for help. Wish i could of been there with the love you needed....
It still goes on I can see so much my life in him 80es 90es
Garrielee Peck I'm so sorry if you have experienced the same things, I wish I could have helped you, if only you could have told someone your story and had someone to help you.
Thank you Michael for sharing your story
😭😭😭 this is heartbreaking what this poor man suffered at the hands of others. 💔💔
@GRÖBNÖB the Troll GRÖBNÖB the Troll Distraction and disinformation to refocus away from the issue of child abuse. Who are you protecting and why? When you face down abusers wherever they are and take the rot out at the core... You get all the rot. Anyone that can abuse especially in power is related to all the corruption, it's the same mentality. Surely the establishment has nothing to fear from the stories of people hurt as kids, by their own... Ted Heath was notorious amongst his own that's why he got to be PM. The point is, little kids get hurt in the process and noone has an excuse. Control isn't one, nor is profit
I’m almost crying ..... words absolutely fail me ...mike is an embodiment of a strong man .
All the best Mike .
I just felt like hugging the man so much trauma he must of experience, and yet has become a strong human being.
Such a tortured soul who cannot get justice because of the corrupt and perverted society we live in.
So sad 😔
Very hard to listen to but a must, the public has to know about these paedophile rings.
Great interview James.
I can't listen to this, reading the synopsis at the top and comments is good enough. I am 60 and I know terrible things happen and continue to happen.
What makes a person sexually attacted to children?
@@carolcohen9913 demonic sick narcissistic bastards
What absolutely infuriates me is when one of these culprits is presented to a judge and there is overwhelming evidence and all that's left is the sentencing and... we continously see a slap on the wrist.

Such an important interview. I know exactly what he means about the spark being gone from the eyes of abused children. I witnessed this myself when I was involved in helping two 3 years olds escape paedofiles in Kenya. When I met them shortly afterwards the look in their eyes will forever haunt me.
58:36 "I can spot a child who has been abused..."
This is the greatest evidence that what he's saying it's true.
People who suffered a certain kind of violence can really feel their "equals in sorrow".
I've watched him be interviewed by various people and his story is solid. Nothing changes. He is 100% telling the truth. I feel so angry about what's happened to him and so many more children. He's so articulate and so glad he's found happiness even if it was a long time coming ❤️❤️❤️
gemma Jackson period!
The problem is so can the pedo’s and then they pick them out to abuse too. 🤮
I can’t remember myself at 5yrs old but yet his stories are haunting.
The establishment needs to held accountable for the abuse that children in the early 50’s endured.
I love this guy. If more people were like him, we'd live in a beautiful world.
This man is amazing and how he can still have a giggle at things is awe inspiring!! Please be aware that this ring is STILL going on and is just even moreso hidden! Thought and blessings with the victims of this horrific abuse 🙏
My heart breaks listening to this not ashamed to say I broke my heart crying for this man 😢 what evil he had to endure and there are still many more sick and evil people walking among us. What an incredibly brave, intelligent and amazing man Michael grew up to be I pray that sharing his story gives him a small bit of peace. Nothing but respect for Michael Thank you for sharing your story 🤍
Me too.
Me too💔
A man of wisdom . I knew it as soon as he said “was it worth it ..?. yeah .. “ a man who can say that honestly ,after this journey ,is one who has reached a mind and soul full of wisdom
He's one tough geezer major respect to Mike. There is no cure for these sick people apart from the bullet.
@Mike Hunt and a liar.
Have I missed something here , why is he a fantasist and a liar?? Please can you explain, I never heard this guys story before so would like to no why you think that way about this story .
@Mike Hunt Disinformation and distraction away from protecting children from abuse, much
@@andybest3284 mi5?
@Mike Hunt do make a video Mike on youtube discussing why you think so. Love to hear.
What a strong dynamic man, it was a hard listen but his charisma made it more palatable. Wish him a long happy life 🙏🙏🙏
Great to hear someone divulge such intimate trauma, I know exactly what pain he shares but it's legislation in high places who determine truth, hope he has good days In his fight against his illness.
If you face down abusers wherever they are and take the rot out at the core... You get all the rot. Anyone that can abuse especially in power is related to all the corruption, it's the same mentality. Even if it's hidden by status or 'national security' it's still criminal behaviour and requires addressing. Licence to abuse does not give you diplomatic freedom
@@louisebrookes2630 well said x
A truly disturbing account of this mans life which brought me to tears many times.
I started off feeling embarrassed to be part of the human race listening to Mike’s horrific past as a poor desperate child, but after listening to his full story, I am so proud of the way he has finally managed to find peace and happiness. HE is truly an exceptional human being, he doesn’t seem to take compliments well, which I can understand why, but this man has actually moved me.... I will never forget this man and his story. I wish him as much happiness as is possible in his last years and would like to thank him for his honesty and strength, as I said, just an exceptional human being.
The horrors of men (and it is men driving and riding this particularly evil bus), are an embarrassement to existence itself, always have been, (collectively), it's heartbreaking they're born at all.. another rapist/kiddy fiddler/thief/druggy/trouble causing liability in all likeliness.. :(
Great interview my heart breaks for Michael but I'm glad he has been able to finally tell his story.
It takes such courage to speak out, especially for boys/men who have been victims of abuse. Thank you for bringing light to these dark issues in society.
V sad but needed to be done (interview) obvs my heart goes out to you Michael and to the many many children still suffering this disgusting form of abuse
This is the only time Ive heard that the Nuns were kind. Most nun videos are about horror stories.
9 minutes in and I’m already sobbing my heart out especially when he said his back side was bleeding story’s like this make u want to adopt and foster all of the abused children in the world physically and sexually and just keep them safe and let them know what actual real love is! 💜
As a twin myself, I think one of the saddest things about this man’s life is that he never has met his own twin brother 😢 💔
Bless your heart Michael. You have been heard and people know your talking truth to out these bastards.
Child abuse, child trafficking… any crime against the innocence of our children must be shouted loudly for people to wake up to this fucking horrific crime.
Thank you James for allowing real people to speak their truth 🙏🏼
an honest man,happy that he found hie peace.what a story.
This is a such a difficult watch. Hope you find peace brother. Another great interview, thanks James
I'm so sorry for what you went through Mike. This is beyond heartbreaking! You are no coward, you are beyond brave for sharing your story.
Mike Tarraga you are my hero people like you change to world for the better much love xx
Thx james for allowing mike to tell his harrowing story, that takes guts. It's great to know he's finally found his soul mate + is a better place today.
Sickening! Worst of it is this is still rife to this day because too many people are turning a blind eye with it involving money or whatever else! Wakey wakey people it could be a relative of yours
There is no middle ground. Permitting is guilt.
Anyone that no’s a child could be in harm phone this Uk no 0808-800-5000 nd the no for u.s is 1-800-422-5000 u could be saving someone life !xxxx
@Mike Hunt Moron!
@Mike Hunt Disinformation and distraction away from protecting children from abuse
Mike Hunt standing up for paedophiles is an interesting stance.
James is a brilliant interviewer, you have definitely found your calling! Michael much respect to you for your authentic account!
Two real men right there, in a world where some can’t even define man x
Thank you for your compassion James for Mike in bringing his story to light.
Thank you for still loving humanity enough to share you story.
Michael you did the right thing writing this Book and doing as many interviews as possible while you still can, they hid it away so no one new what was going on, but you have make sure people at least know this was and still is happening, I will mention your book every week on my TH-cam Radio show, and I will tell them your not making a penny out of the sale of the book, you are giving all money to help survivors. All the best mate. Jimmy the Hat 🎩👍🇬🇧Amen.💯
I cried at the end of this. This man has walked through hell and survived. He is an amazing character and deserved so much more. I would love to have given him a hug. Im 67!
Thing is most people won’t even talk about these vile people in power🙏❤️
Most are unaware. Plenty have spoken out but they have not been listened to. The powerful paedos CONTROL the media. If it's not on the tv news people don't hear about it. They have a lot of power over the police and the courts too.
Saville's activities were well known - to the police as well as his circle of close friends - but he wasn't held accountable until after he died.
Epstein is an echo of old Jimmy except Saville died of natural causes.
And what is the most obvious of their similarities? The British Royal family. CLOSE friends.
I have nothing but deep respect for Mike. This is such a deeply honest and brave interview.
God bless Mike, almost broke me down. Thanks James, keep up the good work mate!
Such a horrific story and total respect that he's donated the money from his books to help children going through the same abuse, a very truthful man! I'm so glad he's finally found happiness now but a little sad that he's so ill.. 🙏🏻God Bless him..Great interview 👍
What an incredible soul 💜 I did go buy his book. I'm so glad he has found some peace and is speaking his truth 🙏
Brilliant guy .watched all his interviews. Glad he's finally found happiness and contentment in later life .
Heartbreaking ...the evil abuse this gent suffered sick society back then and still to this day ....I have no words .
This poor man. I just wanna hug him 😢
Given what Micheal has gone through I don't think he owes an apology to anyone. I wish him peace and happiness and thank him for sharing his story. 🙏
How can someone survive this level of abuse! What an incredibly strong and brave person.
Heartbreaking, moving and honest. What a gentleman you are Mike. These things (can't even call them human beings) deserve to be all put in a chamber and gassed. Nothing but respect for you getting your story out. Hope you realise how much support you've got brother.
This has done my head in bad, I've cried over it and it cannot go on. Save them, listen to the plight on these kids and come down on the perpetrators like bricks.
ffs, this is horrific,, i cried when he said he told at 6yo, and sent back to that pair of bastards,,This has been an eye opener, great interview.💔.
Thank you James.
So very shocking and sad.
Peace to you Michael n thank you.
This guy is the toughest S.O.B I've ever seen. Big respect Michael.
Look at how beautiful this man is. It shines through his face. Thankyou so much for sharing xxxxx
I definitely agree you did the right thing by speaking out. Better late then never. So pleased you've found happiness. Let love be with you. X
Thanks for a great interview James. Just bought Mike's book on Kindle 👍🏽 peace to you and yours.
this was very hard to watch. Made me cry tears! I wish you love, light and peace Mike!
James, one of your best interviews, awesome! Big thanks also to your other guest Anne Brees....It takes serious Balls to expose this Evil. Great Respect to Michael and his Mrs Georgie, Love & Peace Brother...Keepon keeping it real....Cheers..X P.S. Really hope a Documentary or Film can be Produced!
Thank you
Amazing human being. That's strength.
Rosie Waterhead was most likely on Ted Heaths pay roll. This guy is an inspiration!!
Another phenomenal recording James English. You are amazing and fearless... What a story. Micheal is too tough on himself Shame on the system for letting him down. I love his pets. Its like there onto everything saying there there daddy everythings okay. Another fantastic (anything goes with james English) Total respect xxx
A difficult topic and character to engage with James. It is significant that you are brave enough for the challenge to go to the next level! and take your podcast where others dare not. Today the Biggest Organisation with no external oversight and danger is Social Work Services who have been getting away with Child Abuse for generations. FACT.
Ahh this just broke my heart 💔 This poor man took horrific abuse his whole childhood and teenage years. How brave he is to speak up and all he wanted to do in doing so, is to help others. How ironic that when he finds true happiness with Georgie, his health failed him and his life came to an end, how cruel is the workings of this universe. So so sad. I hope he has finally found peace from the tortured life he was forced to live at the hands of predators. God bless you Mike. 💕
All beasts should be jailed for life with no chance of parole...I've heard of some beasts who get less of a sentence than a prolific shoplifter,,no joke
At who’s expense? just hang them for the birds to feed from!
Paedophilia will be legal in a few years. There's even a TED talk on here, given by a German girl, who is attempting to gain sympathy for paedophiles. Oh, and did you know that Bestiality was legalised in Canada last year?
At who’s expense????
Clearly you int done a day of bird
Once there dead they don’t feel any more pain ,
Nonces like that should be locked up and they would be living in fear
I’ve saw what happens to them and relatedly even hot water and sagar
Called jugging .nuking so on and so forth, so no slashings beatings and mental torture all day for me
Robert Hands spot on
Yep, you could get longer for not paying your TV licence at one point!
Thank you James, lots of love to you Michael.
I sincerely hope your last days are filled with peace and much love !!!! From one survivor to another!! X
What a lovely humourous guy with a fascinating tale to tell.
Mike you're a hero and inspiration..thank you for the amazing story!
A Truly moving story and great that Mike has the strength to share his truly horrific experiences. It is a travesty that these individuals were not brought to justice. Best of luck to Mike with the rest of his life. Another great podcast James.
They would find empathy and kindness more painful...
@@louisebrookes2630 Well Said.
I wish I could go back and save him as a child. Wrap my arms around him keep him safe and warm. So fucking heartbreaking. I cannot fathom that there’s actually people out there who like to exploit and abuse children 😢makes my stomach curl and my blood boil
Omg this man has got to be the most bravest strong hearted person ever, at least he is to me. Omg. I don't know what to say, there are so many words and yet No words. I love this man, and he is 70? No way, He's very distinguishly handsome! Please, Send him True genuine love and the warmest hug possible from me. 😥💜
What a very very very brave man, heart breaking isn't the right word to use...
Well done James this must have been one of the hardest interviews you have had to do, Mike I absolutely send my thoughts to you,
This has to stop and people need to wake up. This brakes my heart this poor little boy had no chance and no grown up to help him. I am honored to hear this now grown man coming forth and sharing this and not one ounce of this story is shameful exactly the opposite how brave and the voice for so many millions of children that have suffered in humiliation, pain, and depression silently for fear that no one would believe. And the voice for those that didn't survive this abuse and torture
Please Mike,,, keep telling your story. Shine the light on this darkness
It's hard to believe and at same time it's fu king heart breaking sicking what was Done to Michael and his siblings. RIP Michael may your after life be a nice one God bless. There are a lot of evil 😈 BEASTS out there.
Absolutely horrifying.thanks for yr courage to tell your story.
Lovely man Michael and you come across extremely well such a harrowing childhood you endured am so happy you found peace at last may God bless your humble soul, love to you from someone who cares.
How this man as a boy ,must have suffered!?
How many more are still suffering out there?
DOBETTERFROMNOW
☮️❤️
Michael it really is something to learn how strong a body is. It doesn't seem possible mentally and physically, you could endure so much. I'm not sure if it's a curse or an attribute. You would have to be THEE strongest person I have ever heard. It's too bad we don't hear how you did it enough. We could all learn one he'll of a lesson to manage times when we just want to give up. Whether you know it or not, the gift of life you still wanted because most of us would have given up a long time ago. And yet, even now, on morphine, you are still with us, with another new chapter, telling your story we don't get enough of. It really is something to dig into. It's one lesson we could learn. Maybe you're a hero to many. A hero because you figured out how to make it thru the dark. It's amazing.
May I add, you're even strong enough to relive the horror. What is the trick? How is it possible? The strength here is immeasurable. Too bad we all,don't have it.
Absolutely love listening to these interviews. They are real and truthful of brave people, sad stories, happy stories and just fascinating to listen to. James just listens and because of that people just open up. He asks the right questions and it just comes across so natural.
Mike Tarrage is a hero. His heart is full of love despite his past. He is 100 times more of a human than Ted Heath or John Major or Prince Andrew etc... Good man. God bless him.
Christ what a story. Poor man. No wonder he was angry. The fact he’s put his story out to get nothing back himself speaks volumes. I’m glad he’s spoken out. Even if he helps one person he’s succeeded. These bstrds need hanging!!! What kids have been going through and are still going through is absolutely atrocious. James, what you’re putting out there is powerful stuff, that people NEED to know about. Well done to you for speaking to these people and getting the word out. KEEP GOING!!!
It is beyond my comprehension that two parents could be in collusion around the sexual abuse of a child or children. Are their hearts made of stone? Thanks to Mike for sharing his story and sending love to Mike and all those who suffer from this type of abuse or any other.
Thank you Michael for sharing your story. You’re an inspiration to many. Much love to you from Las Vegas. ♥️♥️♥️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Oh i adore Michael and ive seen him speak with John and i have bought his book . Respect to Michael and thanks for exposing Michaels hellish story James ! Such an intelligent kind man . Luv his wee Dog and Cat . Im glad Michael has happiness with his Georgie . I salute Michael and he should be thanked for speaking up ! What a remarkable Human u are Michael and i am priviledged to have heard you .
Absolutely the truth. I sadly worked in care with challenging behaviour adults. Having reported safeguarding, I know exactly the system these people go through and how it is covered up and you will lose your job. TH-cam is a great platform for people to speak the truth.
