Well that last episode where they were shining a light on Fuentes was really eye opening and lovely. Like his "analogy" was literally that the "white" team was facing off against the "colored" team and the loser was getting killed, just absolute Nazi poo poo except for saying "globalists" while smirking instead of... What he's letting Kanye do now. And he was fielding questions from his horrible Nazi fans like "when are you going to go full red pill" and... Kanye deserves lots of blame but he's also totally getting used. Fuentes is totally using Kanye/riding his coattails and taking his shot to fully take down a black billionaire while mainstreaming the sort of antisemitism he's wanted to have out there since he was 18 and it's totally disgusting to see. I haven't had a chance to listen to the episode yet but I'm sure this at least came up.

"I agree with Ye" But yeah, all of these people circling around to use him and his insanity to push their own agendas/grifts is absolutely reprehensible. The only silver lining being the "mask on" people like Pim Tool or Alex getting lashed out at during this.

Is that a Whataburger or does Texas have In&Out? Read something from one of the FB groups that said the Bandwidth bill from all the people watching Ye is what forced Alex to file for personal bankruptcy. He was always going to file, but this made him file earlier than he planned. He might be able to dodge the bill if he's actively in bankruptcy

I thought he had at least. It'd be pretty funny if the thing that sunk Alex was him bringing on a major celebrity he couldn't even control and that created so much traffic it hosed him financially as well as undercutting him in front of his audience because they're so full throated about their heinous opinions talk in front of and even over him on his own show; especially when it may have left Alex not only financially drained, but emotionally drained to because he realized he had no control, and was being out played at his own game to some extent. Antigravitas posted:Bandwidth is cheap and typically billed at the end of the month. It's an excuse. I mean, conceivably with someone you know is in financial trouble like Alex a company might be keeping an eye on payments more closely, and checking he can make them after major expenses come through. If it was an excuse then he probably wouldn't have bothered cutting it for one, and would more than likely have used it as a spring board to hawk products and beg for donations.

Total nonsense, Alex had already filed for bankruptcy before the interview and it would be an insanely tiny amount to the amount he owes from the lawsuit. Also it was personal bankruptcy, not the company bankruptcy (which was filed months ago) and the company would be the one paying the bill anyway.

Alex doesn't like the January 6 guys. On January 6 when it started getting hot, Alex switched gears real fast to "this is a false flag" and high tailed it out. Can't grift money in the middle of an insurrection.

The bankruptcy isn't because he has no money. It is because he owes far more than he has. He has hundreds of millions squirreled away, yes, but he also personally owes over a billion and a half to various people. Jones and Free Speech Systems, LLC are very liquid and have fucktons of money - just not billions.

Jones and Free Speech Systems, LLC are very liquid and have fucktons of money - just not billions. You can continue to get loans in bankruptcy. Even though the lender would know they'd only get a fraction back, someone could throw dollars at him so he could keep buying product and, I don't know, avoid some taxes of their own? To be able to satisfy the bankruptcy and the many debtors at a maximum, the court basically encourages him to keep his prior income-generating habits. I could almost see the court encouraging the lending. ILL Machina fucked around with this message at 01:51 on Dec 5, 2022 |

I'm glad I went back to listen to the early episodes. The show is remarkably funny before they were both broken by it. Also the fun stuff like episode 22 Dan is talking about how this is the only time they will ever listen to PJ Dubs speak. E: Not to say it isn't funny now but it's a very different humor when this was just goofs. Grand Fromage fucked around with this message at 21:50 on Dec 5, 2022 |

So there would've been another Formulaic Objections in the works were it not for all of... whatever this was. I'm trying to guess what it must've been. We know Josh Owens was deposed for the CT trial, and it might have some insight into the business side of Infowars. Dan could probably do very helpful annotations to it. I know a deposition of Rob Jacobson exists, and Dan has mentioned it, but I hope KF does not cover it. I've read the transcript of it already, and while there are a few bits of worthwhile information in it, I don't see it being something Dan would be comfortable covering. Alex's attorney decided the best way to impeach the witness would be to commit a lot of Jacobson's personal information onto the court record, while Jacobson himself couldn't afford his own lawyer to speak in his own defense. Mattei had to make the request that a lot of the transcript would've needed to be marked confidential due to attorney Wolman's attempts at doxxing Jacobson. Mattei was in an awkward position about it. Jacobson was essentially his witness who was coming in with the attempt at trying to help Mattei's case, but in the course of doing so Mattei ended up locking Jacobson in a room with a very hostile opposing counsel, essentially defenseless. While Jacobson was Mattei's witness, Mattei was not Jacobson's lawyer, and Wolman tried to take active advantage of that.

Counter point : if you remove the actual doxxable info that’s exactly what the podcast is for : exposing and analyzing right wing rhetoric and tactics. The last episode was 3 hours of harrowing, high octane anti-Semitism, I think it’ll be fine if they cover a shirtbird getting sad because his shitbird boss’s shitbird lawyers were mean to him.

The problem here is that, unlike the other depositions, the defense actually came with an attack plan. ... with stress on the "attack." The defense trying to pull poo poo on Jacobson accounts for the majority of the transcript. Mattei got what he wanted pretty early on, and the rest is just Wolman threatening Jacobson and trying to bait him into admitting to various crimes. So much of the transcript was heavily redacted, that I don't know if audio of it is even allowed to exist. (And if wasn't played at trial, even in part, it wouldn't be a public document.) Mattei had to call up Judge Bellis, mid-deposition, to try and get Wolman to knock it off. It is a fascinating bit of legal drama, explicitly because Wolman as Alex-by-proxy's response to a former employee speaking to the plaintiffs is to try and make them actively regret it. But Wolman just did not stop using the most extreme possible reaches to impeach Jacobson, even when instructed otherwise by the judge, who normally doesn't even oversee recorded depositions. A part of it was just Wolman harassing Jacobson about a medical condition of some kind. Wolman was apparently sanctioned or disciplined as a result of it, though I do not know how impactful those attorney punitives actually were.

Okay, sure. If the audio doesn’t work they obviously can’t, unless they’d make the mistake of doing it via dramatic reading. (O no) But you said they shouldn’t, when the rest of your post is an excellent explication of why they in fact should cover it.
