The jury has spoken and found Trump guilty on all 34 counts. What's next for the leading candidate to be our next president? Will Riker's Island have to make room for oval furniture? Chris and Joel discuss the next steps for Trump.
Plus Chad Daybell gets the death penalty for his role in the murders of his ex wife and his second wife's kids. Which is a bit odd. Because the evidence shows that it is more likely that his second wife was responsible for the murders of her kids, but she didn't get the death penalty. 
Nevertheless, it was a week of juries speaking and speaking loudly.

Gayle Bergstrand was an ear witness to a murder. Being just inches away, she was awoken in the middle of the night to a loud sound next door. Gayle and her husband lived in one-half of a duplex, and on the other side, lived the Harmons. But in the middle of the night, she heard a loud sound coming from the Harmon’s side of the duplex. So she wakes her husband with the all-too-familiar-question to husbands: “did you hear that?” You know what the husband said. Husbands all across America know what he said. But Gayle was right to be concerned. Hear her tail of what happened when you are an ear-witness to murder.

Trump Trial week 3 didn’t disappoint. From threatening President Trump with jail to putting a porn star under oath to talk about details, it was a surreal courtroom experience. Plus Joel covers a crazy case where a lawyer's parents actually caught on fire. Some jokes just write themselves.

It’s week 2 of the Trump Trial, and this made-for-reality TV courtroom drama did not disappoint. The judge fined Trump $9,000 for violating his gag order to not speak about witnesses or judicial staff. To which Trump responded – “that’s the best $9,000 worth of air-time I have ever spent!” While Trump was fined for speaking about the prosecution’s witnesses, mainly Michael Cohen, Cohen was busy on TikTok blasting Trump, and making money while doing it. People were worried that this would hurt Cohen’s credibility until they realized he had none to begin with. We go back through our annuls to highlight the time Constanza sued Jerry Seinfeld. Not George. But Michael Constanza. Think about that. Under penalty of perjury, Michael Constanza told the court that he was the inspiration for the balding, overweight, ultimate loser, can’t-keep-a-job, and can’t-keep-a-date George Constanza. The things we will do for $200,000,000. Finally, the Supreme Court heard argument in the presidential immunity case. Turns out, the justices have been listening to our podcast as they asked questions dove-tailing with our pre-argument analysis. The issue will be whether Trump was acting in his personal or presidential capacity. But both Chris and Joel are in agreement that the Court’s ruling will likely push any trial over the January 6th matter past the election date.

Week one of Trump's trial didn’t disappoint. First, the court held a hearing on whether Trump should be sanctioned for violating the gag order. But the maximum fine is 1,000 per violation. Even if Trump has to pay the maximum, that’s some great ROI for his Marketing efforts.
Former National Enquirer took the stand to testify about the catch-and-kill approach with Trump stories. Somewhere Elvis and Marilyn Monroe are spinning on their graves. They could have killed their Martian love child story if they had just ponied up!

The Juice has passed away, so let the jokes begin. Good taste? Bad taste? If he committed double murder, who cares? Chris and Joel take this opportunity to remember one of the biggest trials in history.
And at the same time, a trial that could trump the OJ trial just began. I think we can all agree that if a trial ends up imprisoning a former president of the United States and the leader in the polls to be the next president, that will go down in history. Hold on to your seats.
