    Being one of their lawyers must be simultaneously the most stressful and the most entertaining job ever. Because on the one hand, John basically dares rich assholes to sue him every single week, but on the other hand, you get to hear things like “geriatric dr. Evil” and “a staff member dressed in a squirrel costume saying ‘eat shit Bob!’” read out loud in a courtroom.

    He stops just short of the ACTUAL legal limit, but miles over what people THINK the legal limit is, and so he has an air of comedic risk that's hard to rival without actually full-on fucking the company over. They know they can back LWT because LWT knows exactly what they're saying. It's brilliant, and he walks that razor's edge like it's nothing. No wonder they want to keep him.

They have more freedom because they are a subscription channel but WarnerMedia does pose limits on what they can do.

    in honor of the third anniversary of bob's passing yesterday, let me drop you some truth for all those who think Bob let his beef go: No he didn't, he got killed off by karma before he could! this was posted 11 nov 2019, bob died exactly 3 year and 1 day today, oct 25 2023. He had an almost a whole year to see it. I am sure he did see it, but people say he didn't because he responded to any bad media about him in days of it coming out. But this time he did not, and it was not because he let it go...it's because he got LUNG SICKNESS COMPLICATIONS! HE DIED OF IDIOPATHIC PULMONARY FIBROSIS AND EVEN APPLIED FOR BLACK LUNG BENEFITS A MONTH BEFORE HE DIED, THE SAME BENEFIT HE HELPED DESTROY FOR YEARS. If you ask me, that last bit was probably the last straw for God, if you are a dying millionaire with wealth on the back of miners you fucked over for years and your first response to getting lung sickness was "let me get one last lick!", that would be how i would take you out. That or a cave in.

Some episodes are deeply informative and some others are here to fun and they really are, in the other hand some are pretty akward to me. For the Dalaï Lama episode for example, things are not as simple as that, but it induced the audience into a false sense of certainties while the reality is way more nuanced than that.

    Seattle had a very effective way of toning down frivolous suits. When the city got sued for obviously frivolous charges, they counter sued the plaintiff for the per hour cost of the city attorney having to deal with the case. Dude dropped his suit thinking the city would act in kind. It did not. And they didn’t have to deal with another frivolous suit for years. Hope HBOs lawyers see this 😉

    This speaks volumes to HBOs reputation as a company. Many would back down and be fickle, withdrawing support for the show when challenged. Share this video so it has maximum effect.

    At&t, also got a small boost in their approval rating as well. Granted they screw that up too

    You know what could be fun? Spamming SLAPP initiator with so many lawsuit-provoking events, so that simultaneous suing everyone will drain funds for lawyers faster than they can be replenished, especially if some crisis is afoot. A thousand paper cuts, so to speak=)
