Since it was released in October 2016, there’s been plenty of speculation about the mysterious ‘third man’ heard on the infamous “Access Hollywood” tape.

The vulgar recording captured Donald Trump bragging on a tour bus about assaulting women, while show host Billy Bush laughs in the background. But another man is also heard chuckling and yelling “The Donald…my man… New York’s greatest groper!”

Now, with revelations that the governor has his own history of grabbing and making unwanted advances toward women, theories have resurfaced that Cuomo might have been hitching a ride that day on the Access Hollywood bus.

“The voice sounds a lot like Cuomo’s, but it also has a distinct Harvey Weinstein nasality to it,” said an audio expert brought in to analyze the tape. “On the other hand, I hear a little of Bill Cosby’s verbal tick on the consonants.”

Governor Cuomo’s office flatly denies that he was on that bus, saying that he can prove he was at the Scores Gentlemans Club, a well-known NYC strip joint, on the day in question.

Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby, both in prison, could not be reached for comment.
