Nio: It's just what stars do. We'll find out if our hosts think that's true then Serbia has had enough mass [00:01:00] shootings, so their president wants to disarmed the entire country. And lastly, we'll talk about the homeless man, Jordan Neely and his tragic murder. Yes, on the New York City subway. You can watch us live on YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, and Twitch tv.

Nio: We'll be checking your comments on YouTube and Facebook at TLS Live show or tls show.com. So those are definitely the best places to watch if you wanna be a part of the conversation. Now, let me introduce you to my beautiful co-hosts. First up, today we have our nature lover, gamer, rockstar coming to you from Ontario, Canada.

Nio: Mr. Robbie,

Rob B: thank you. Thank you. Happy Sunday everyone. Question for you, what comes after usa? 

Gianni Storm: Um, S ecc 

Nio: No Getting Comes after us USA with irs. I don't know what 

Rob B: That's a good one. [00:02:00] Usb. Oh my goodness. Usc What? I usc what I 

Nio: did there. Oh my God. You must pay me in U s D if you wanted usc. That joke. Wow. I know.

Nio: Someone told 

Rob B: me that horrible chat earlier this week and I had to share it. 

Gianni Storm: It's like, oh, you had to pass it on. 

Rob B: I did. I had to pass along the pain. But, uh, yeah, no, it's been a great weekend. Rob's gym is officially open. My wife and I moved literally a ton of frogs on our property this weekend. I split a bunch of wood by hand.

Rob B: Wow. And my body is feeling it tonight. But it's great work outdoors. And yeah, we were surrounded by woodland critters, chipmunk, squirrels, woodpeckers. And this time of year, for the first time ever, we saw an evening gross beak. Just a beautiful bird with bright yellow, white, and black feathers.

Rob B: Ooh. And we've never seen them here before. So that was, that was a treat. And yeah, we're just doing some big changes around the yard and we've decided we're gonna plant four [00:03:00] apple trees back there. Four 

Nio: apple trees. We love that. Yeah. Yeah. We already, do you have any apple trees now? We 

Rob B: do.

Rob B: We do. And they're gonna need a little bit more TLC because the Caterpillars really did a number on them last year, but we're prepared to just take better care of them this year, and we're adding four trees to the compliment. 

Nio: So. Well, let me ask you this, Mr. Nature lover. So what are you gonna do to.

Nio: Keep the caterpillars from attacking your trees this 

Music: year. Yeah, so 

Rob B: yeah, so there's a spray that we looked into. It's it's a very safe spray that's targeted for the caterpillars. Yeah, so it's basically just like a powder repellent that they don't like, it's a, it's just a bitter taste of them.

Rob B: But what you really have to do is handpick them. So if they start coming, that's a, then we're just gonna go. Yeah, it will be, but it's it's worth it because the first year we got the trees, we [00:04:00] got some fruit and then the caterpillars next couple years did it. So no, they're not winning again this year.

Rob B: We're gonna get some apple. Just have around in backyard, actually get some apples. I want some backyard apples. 

Nio: That sounds nice. All right, next up we've got our college student model, business owner streaming to you from Atlanta, Georgia. Gianni Storm. 

Music: Woo. Hey 

Gianni Storm: guys. So it's been a crazy, crazy busy week for me, but I mean, I'm sure everybody's busy, but I'm trying to get used to like this workspace business kind of busy.

Gianni Storm: Mm-hmm. Which is different than me. Cause even though people tell you, like as an entrepreneur, that you're working 24 7, you don't realize it until you're in it. Like just doing it constantly. And I've been doing it now for a year, but I haven't taken it seriously until this year and actually wanting to expand my business.

Gianni Storm: So it's so much freaking work. Mm. Yeah. But 

Nio: mm-hmm. Is work, man.[00:05:00] That's what people forget is when you go into business, it's a lot of work. It's, you think you're gonna get into it and all of a sudden everything's gonna happen for you. That's not the way it works.

Nio: Takes a lot of commitment, a lot of time, a lot of effort. But in the long run, if it's successful, if it's successful, then you reap all the benefits too. That's 

Gianni Storm: true. the good part is I have been taking on bigger contracts, so that means more money. Mm-hmm. But more money, more problems, because it's like I have to manage more and I'm kind of very inexperienced, so.

Gianni Storm: I'm, I'm trying to look, I'm going to be searching for some type of education, some mentorship, something, so I can actually have something from this bus. I'm not putting all this work in for nothing. So that's, yeah, that's kind of how I look at it. But it's been a good week and yeah I have to find a rest day too, like one day out of the week to do that.

Rob B: Okay. Yeah. Johnny, you might wanna look into your Chamber of Commerce to see if they have a women's league or something, if you're looking for, that's a [00:06:00] good point. Mentorship of someone who can help you with your business help you with learning how to manage. 

Nio: Yeah. Often there's local uh, organizations like he said, a chamber of commerce or local nonprofit organizations to help network and build business.

Nio: It would be valuable for you. I know that was valuable from my wife when we were doing posh she was able to connect with people in the community, people who are already doing it. Learn from them. Yes. You know, see what, see what they're doing. And then someone who can just it Chamber of Commerce.

Nio: Well, there are different organizations. You, for you, it might be a Chamber of Commerce, it might be something else. You just gotta look for organizations in your area okay. You know, just to help you you can do score, score is another option. You can get a Score mentor. There's a lot of options out there for you, but definitely that would definitely help you.

Nio: Yes. And a lot of them are free. 

Gianni Storm: Yeah. Some type of guidance. Yeah, absolutely. Thanks guys. Yeah. We'll take 

Nio: that call, Rob. All right. And I am your host, Nio [00:07:00] Nyx I had a crazy busy day yesterday, so in the morning .

Nio: Yeah. I had Oh, yeah. Had the parade. I had to go do a parade. Right? Oh, yeah. For posh, I remember. And I had to be like, I had to be a, a, a a flag bearer, so I was doing the flag and Oh, yep. Doing the flag just like that. Mm-hmm. Going down the street. It was a long walk and I was just, oh, okay. It wasn't that long.

Nio: Okay. I might be exaggerated a little bit, but my arm was sore. I will say that. Right. 

Rob B: I did it in high school where we carried a banner that was basically a horizontal banner that was maybe 15 feet across, but it, I was at the end of a two by four, the other person and the banner. Well, you know, after a couple of kilometers and the wind catching and it's like, can someone else please take this?

Rob B: Yeah, right. Someone, 

Nio: someone else wind my thing too, cuz the wind would pull on it and I'm like trying to balance it and keep it straight. Yeah. And then I was trying to mm-hmm Trying to do the up and down and, [00:08:00] you know, it was like crazy. But then, but then after that, uh, in the evening I went to Janet Jackson.

Nio: Saw Janet Jackson and concert. Yeah. How was that? Yeah. Ooh. So it was great except for the fact that the venue's almost a little over an hour away, but, oh wow. Okay. When we actually got off the highway, it was another hour and a half before we got to the actual park, to the actual venue because Wow.

Nio: There were so many people going to see Janet Jackson and it was just, and we ended up missing, missing the opening act. Dang ludicrous. Who is the opener? No. Ludicrous. I was so mad. What? Yes. I Cause 

Music: dang, 

Gianni Storm: you guys. 

Nio: Oh man. So we got, we, he was, we got there at the very end and we were hearing Move Bitch 

Out 

Music: the Way.

Music: I was like, no. Cause 

Nio: that just gotta be the last song. Right? I know. It's the last song. Cause [00:09:00] that's the song he gonna end on. That's right. That's his song. It's his closing song. Oh, there was his closing. Yeah. So I'm like, oh my God. That's hilarious. So we didn't even, I didn't even see it. But what was the 

Rob B: cause for the delay?

Rob B: What was the cause 

Nio: for the delay? No, we got there, we got there the parade really early. But it was really the, the, the traffic was just off the chain. It was something with the way they were Yeah. Orchestrating the traffic to get in the parking. Sure. We were literally sitting for an hour and a half just sitting there.

Nio: Um, that's all I know. That's the word. I mean, I would expect an half an hour extra time once we get off the highway. So altogether it was like two and a half hours of driving before we got to the actual of being in the car vineyard of being in the car. That's horrible. So it's crazy. Yeah. Anyway, so that, that was my crazy part.

Nio: You guys enjoy it. Neo is 

Rob B: officially, Neo's officially part of the Rhythm Nation. 

Nio: I'm so proud of him. Oh my God. We were killing it. She was so good. I actually,  did it live on my, um, did it on Facebook Live? Like most of the, most of the concerts. So if you actually wanna see parts of it, just go on.

Nio: You know, you gotta go on my personal one though. Not neo Nick. So,[00:10:00] I'm looking online. I see Jacqueline Robinson has joined us. She's got for Gianni. Sometimes you have to hold on to a regular job, make ends meet while you're working your business. You have to have those jobs.

Nio: Jobs to pay the rent. She also says, look for organizations that help women and minorities. Gianni as a double minority, you're eligible for numerous federal grants. And that's very true as well. Mm-hmm. And I'm telling you, if you, if you invest time into applying for those grants, uh, my wife got a few grants that were very, very helpful.

Nio: So 100 

Gianni Storm: that I thought that grants were a myth. I didn't know that that was actually even doing research. Like a lot of people say that they don't get 

Nio: grants. Like a lot of people don't apply for them. That's the problem. Yeah. 

Rob B: A lot. Yeah, that's kinda true. And that's the same thing in universities too.

Rob B: Bursaries and grants get left on the table because people don't apply for them. You know, you apply, apply, apply. 

Nio: You know the people that do apply for them, the people that are already wealthy, cuz [00:11:00] they, they know what to do. The people that got money and they're just starting up small businesses and they're like, okay, I'm gonna get some grants and it's gonna pay for all my business.

Nio: And then that's good. Those are the people that, that actually get the grants. The people that have money. Okay. I'm gonna 

Gianni Storm: put more effort into Grant and looking into the mentorship. Thank you guys for this. This is, 

Rob B: this is really helpful. And that's it. Reach out to your Chamber of Commerce first, because you might be set up with a mentor that can help you with all of that.

Music: Yeah, 

Nio: absolutely. All enough chat. Let's get to some of these hot topics. All right, try that again. Choose lies, shenanigans. Yes. All right, Gianni, you've got a young homeless man that was just killed on the New York subway station. Tell us more. 

Gianni Storm: Yes, yes, yes. So sad news recently, man named Jordan Neely. Um, he's a homeless man in New York City.

Gianni Storm: He murdered on a subway train. Uh, advocates for the homeless are calling for accountability in his murder. Who he has been seen on the train previously as a Michael Jackson impersonator dancing, singing, um, he had. Came in that one day specifically and So [00:12:00] Jordan Neely, had been complaining of hunger and thirst, and he was shouting and he was just saying that he was fed up and he didn't care if he lived or died or, um, if he went to prison and that he was ready to die.

Gianni Storm: It was reported that he then took off his jacket and an way, he threw it to the floor. Um, when one of the passengers, it was a year old passenger on the train, he put Neely in a headlock and held him in that position for about 15 minutes. It's, it's important to some to note that Jordan Neely is a black man and the passenger murderer is white.

Gianni Storm: With military training, there's been protests inside New York City. Subways and Avi, Avi advocacy groups are requesting social services for people with mental health issues and calling attention to local policies that they say. Further neglect homeless people, um, in New York City. So my question is, in what ways can New York City work towards balancing the need for public safety with the need for supporting their homeless population?

Nio: A why [00:13:00] don't 

Rob B: you start us off? Sure, man. Uh, yeah. So how the video just blew me away, Johnny, before I get into this. Uh, and the, killer's name is Daniel Penny. And like you mentioned, he's a 24 year old marine veteran. And his response to someone having a really bad day and let's, I think it's important to note that Jordan Neely's condition worsened when his mother died, uh, two years ago.

Rob B: But this really was a mental health issue that he spiraled and was really down on his luck after that. So, you know, when the public's, when someone in the public's response is to put you in a choke hold, And it sh it's also important to note Johnny, that he wasn't alone in this because there were other passengers that Yeah.

Rob B: Were helping to restrain his legs, his arms. Glad you said that. Yeah. Um, yeah. So there were other people involved and there were other people who were just documenting recording rather than saying, you know, you're getting involved and saying like, what are you doing? Mm-hmm. What are you doing? Yeah. So, you know, that being said, the, uh, New York City Department of Homeless Services has a budget of 2.2 billion, [00:14:00] and there are nearly 69,000 homeless people living in New York City as of December, 2022.

Rob B: Those are the latest stats that I was able to hold. Um, yeah. And a large population of that, uh, homeless sector can be, can often be seen taking shelter in subways and looking for help. And oftentimes this can lead to really uncomfortable encounters with commuters. That being said, you know, how, how to fix things, it's.

Rob B: It's provides safe and secure housing, increase access to social services, uh, such as mental health, substance abuse, recovery, and other social and economic challenges. Uh, partner with organizations like, um, NPOs that are working with the homeless community already that have inroads that can help these people, that can help funnel some of this 2.2 billion.

Rob B: Like that's an astronomical sum of money That's insane for 69,000 people. Right. Um, and 

Music: I get, New York is big, but 

Rob B: Yeah. And for public safety, I [00:15:00] mean, Alex, it's increased police training, more cctv, but there's already so much of that infrastructure in the subway. So I don't know what could have been done in this situation.

Rob B: Um, yeah, I guess, you know, you can, in, you can increase your outreach efforts also who work, uh, with the homeless community to, you know, try to better their lot just to, to help them out. 

Nio: Yeah. So for me, I mean, it's, it was absolutely insane. I mean, he held him in a, in a, in a choke hole for 15 minutes according to witnesses.

Nio: Mm-hmm. At what point do you say, okay, he's subdued. We're good. We're gonna let him go. I mean, if you're watching the video, we basically watched the man murdered very much, like when we watched George Floyd being murdered. Yeah, 

Rob B: that's exactly what it felt 

Nio: like. Yeah. Literally, because I'm sitting in there watching, like, let him up, let him up.

Nio: I mean, he's, you know, they're trying to, you can tell the man's dying. I mean, he's not going, he's sleep. He's not in a sleeper hold. Yeah. This is a choke hold. Um, you [00:16:00] know, so this is straight murder. To me, it's, it's, it's not even, mm-hmm. This isn't a consideration of, is it murder? Did he kill him? He, this guy needs to be arrested.

Nio: He, how is he free? I don't understand, 

Rob B: right? Is this, is this like some real life purge thing going on? Like it my blow my mind that 

Nio: he walked, it doesn't matter that the guy was being annoying, which is basically what Neely, they said Neely was doing, was being annoying. He was acting aggressively towards some people.

Nio: Like Gianni was saying, he was 

Rob B: acting erratically and aggressively, sure he wasn't harming 

Nio: anyone, but he actually didn't, he didn't assault anybody. He didn't attack anybody. Nobody was fearing for their life. There was no guns involved, nothing like that. You didn't have to subdue someone, attacking someone.

Nio: He was just being aggressive and annoying to people on the subway and they, he's like, I don't care. That is not a reason to kill someone. There's no reason 

Rob B: to put him into a choke. No. If you fear for your life, if you fear for [00:17:00] your life or your wellbeing, if you feel like you're gonna be attacked, sure you have a right to defend yourself, but that was not the case in this instance.

Gianni Storm: There was no 

Nio: threat. Yeah. Yeah. You mentioned Barbie, you mentioned his mom, but I want to go a little, a little more into it cuz you know mm-hmm. Because I don't think, our audience may or may not know, but Neely, when he was 14, his mother, Christine Neely, was killed in their home and her body had been stuffed inside a suitcase and left on the Hudson Parkway in New York.

Nio: Yeah. And it was her boyfriend, Sean Sutherland, he was convicted. Um, and Neely at 18 had to testify. And Jordan said in court that he tried to say goodbye to his mother before he left for school. But the boyfriend refused to let him into the, into the bedroom. And he later learned his mother had been killed the night before.

Nio: And the boyfriend ended up dumping her body while he was at school. And he ended up being sentenced to 30 [00:18:00] years in prison for the crime. But Neely. You know, kind of blamed himself because he didn't go in to check on her. He didn't say goodbye before he left. And that's so sad. You know, according to the reports of his family, you know, as the years progressed, his mental health kind of deteriorated.

Nio: So for me, this is definitely a mental health issue. And it's not the police this time, but it it may, well, I mean, this is a vigilante just like any other, I mean, it just, who is this 

Gianni Storm: guy 

Nio: came outta, outta nowhere. It's, it's so unfortunate this guy should not be it. And like you said, the people around him. No.

Nio: What were you thinking when you saw it? Gianni? 

Gianni Storm: Um, like you said, the George Floyd situation where it just felt helpless. It felt like you wanted to do something, but you knew it, you couldn't. I mean, it's, it's an emotional rollercoaster. It is, but I, how I feel is like, going back to my question a little bit, when it, when it comes to what New York City specifically can do, I [00:19:00] mean, Rob said it best when it's provide housing from that big ass budget that they have, like provide housing to these people.

Gianni Storm: They need somewhere to go instead of the subway trains to where they're being exposed to these type of incidences. And I feel like too, I know that this is a harder ask, but like people in general just need to have more compassion. Like you, you can read the room and see if somebody's mentally ill or you can have enough awareness and consciousness to be like, this person is not in the right state of mind.

Gianni Storm: They don't have to be mentally ill. It could just be a bad day. But as long as they're not touching me and mine, it's not a problem. It's not a problem. There needs to be more compassion and more understanding in this world. I feel like besides the laws and, and everything that we're trying to get the government to do, we have to be the examples as well.

Gianni Storm: Like a citizen. So I mean, who are you guy? Yeah. Who is this guy? Yeah. 

Nio: That's how I feel. I don't know what New York is gonna do or if they can do anything, or if you can depend on New York to do something I mean, it could be that the citizens are not [00:20:00] feeling that they can be protected from people who have mental health issues.

Nio: And you know, maybe if we're talking police reform, part of the police reform was an organization in the police force or part of the police force, or supporting the police force that dealt specifically with mental health issues and people dealing with mental health. Right. Then maybe even the citizen homes would feel more, would feel more comfortable.

Nio: Exactly. Would feel safer. Would feel like, Hey, I can call instead of nine one one seven one one, or whatever the number is, you know, and, and, and get someone there to help and they'll help this guy. Um. It's, it's a, it's a challenge though. I mean, it's, it's a challenge. But he should not be dead. This guy needs to be in jail.

Nio: He has to be in jail. If, if he doesn't get put in jail, then we've got a bigger problem on our hands. 

Gianni Storm: And it just says a lot that there's the ad advocate standing up for this. I mean, it was a very, like we said, it was a very shocking situation. It was recorded, unfortunately. [00:21:00] But it says a lot like, it says a lot people are fed up with the same old ways of things and, and how society has been treating us.

Gianni Storm: Like, no, this is our country. Absolutely. We have to do what we, what we should. Yeah. 

Music: Yeah. 

Rob B: I like your message, Johnny. We need more compassion. We need 

Nio: to be better. Hey, comments online? Yeah. We've got, um, let's see. Uh, let's see. We've got a comment online from Jose. We've become really shitty ass people. Like Johnny says, we need a lot more compassion, more kindness, more love, more acceptance, patience and love.

Music: Shame Patie. 

Nio: Yes. Yeah. Jsel says, this is so fucking traffic tragic. Is this what we have become? Yeah. Is this the way to deal with homeless people, people with mental health issues? It's a straight up murder and, and no ear fans of Butts murder. 

Music: And 

Gianni Storm: for the guys holding him down, 

Music: like, yeah. 

Nio: Ridiculous. Um mm-hmm.

Nio: Says the Jacqueline Robinson says the mayor refused to even acknowledge that this was a murder. He was angrier with a o c for [00:22:00] confirming what the coroner said than he was with the murder itself. Fish rots from the top down. Yeah. Cuz the 

Rob B: coroner did rule it. A homicide. 

Nio: Yep. Yeah. And I guess a o c just let out the, let it out the bag a little bit more.

Nio: Just confirmed. Yep. Yeah. All right. Is this truth, lies or shenanigans? Truth lies. This is 

Gianni Storm: some unfortunate True. True. Truth. 

Music: Truth, 

Nio: truth. Yeah. Truth, truth. It's frustrating. Yeah, it's frustrating how, yeah. Just don't care for others. 

Rob B: Killing with him, impunity. It. It's been a horrible week in the US for 

Nio: that.

Nio: Yeah. Yeah. And in my background it's, I have mental health awareness month, this mental health awareness month. So Nice. I mean, we just have to be aware. You, I don't know, have I told you guys that my brother, my older brother is homeless? I dunno if I know. Yes. You have mentioned, yeah, I thought I may have mentioned in the past, you'll remember that.[00:23:00] 

Nio: Yeah. My older brother, he's homeless. He has, he had a mental health issue. We've been unable to find him. You know, we've been able to locate him for quite a while now. At least 10 years now. We haven't been able to find him and Oh, that's a long, we're worried about him. Right. So Of course. Yeah. But you know, I can imagine, you know, this being my brother and, you know, he's just trying to get by.

Nio: He had a rough childhood, um, you know, very rough, uh, sexual abuse and a bunch of other things. And so he dealt with a lot growing up, and now he has some mental health issues. I mean, you know, I wouldn't want this to happen to him, you know, so it's kind Yeah. Personal to me. All right, let's get onto our next topic.

Nio: Heavy, heavy stuff. Yeah. Pretty sad. All right, but we've got some, we got a joker now. Trump is in court again this time for rape. [00:24:00] Carol, a writer, an advice columnist. Accused Trump of sexually assaulting her in the mid 1990s and recently Trump was deposed in the case. And of course, some of his comments have made headlines.

Nio: He admitted to the infamous, grabbed them by the pussy comment and, uh, from the leaked access Hollywood tape. Uh, and he stated that during the deposition, he stated, fortunately, that's what they let you do, fortunately, or unfortunately, that's what they let you do when you're a star. He also mention, mentioned that he had never met Carol despite a photo of them at a party together.

Nio: So let's take a look at this video. He in front of you, a black and white photograph. I don't 

Trump Deposition: even know who the woman, let's see. I don't know who it's Marla. You're saying Marla's in this photo. That's Marla. Yeah, that's, that's my wife. Which woman are you pointing to 

Nio: now? Here, Carol. Oh, that person you just pointed 

Trump Deposition: to was Carol.

Nio: Who is that? Who is this? You pointed 

Music: to the, he use a strange word. So I wanna ask you about, you say she 

Trump Deposition: completely 

Music: made up a story that I met her at the doors of this crowded. New York City department store and within minutes swooned her. Do you see that? Yeah. 

Trump Deposition: What does swoon her [00:25:00] mean? Uh, that would be a word, maybe accurate or not having to do with, 

Nio: uh, talking 

Trump Deposition: to her and talking to her to do an act that she said happened, which didn't happen.

Trump Deposition: And it's a nicer word than. The word that starts with an F 

Music: means to faint with extreme emotion. That's not what you meant here. Objection, form. 

Trump Deposition: Uh, well, sort of that's what she said I did to her. She fainted with great emotion. She actually indicated that she loved it. Okay. She loved it until commercial break.

Trump Deposition: In fact, I think she said it was sexy, didn't she? She was very sexy to be raped. Didn't she say that? No, sir. I just want to confirm it's your testimony that Eugene Carroll said 

Music: that she loved being sexually assaulted by you. 

Trump Deposition: Well, based on her interview with Anderson Cooper, I believe 

Nio: that's what took place 

Music: in the interview.

Music: When Ms. Carroll talked about rape being sexy, isn't [00:26:00] it true that she said that's a, that many other people hold? 

Trump Deposition: Oh, I don't know. I mean, I don't know. All I know is I believe she said rape is sexy or something 

Music: to that effect. Fair to say, you'd agree with me. Would you not that you use the 

Trump Deposition: term hoax quite a lot.

Trump Deposition: Yes, I do. 

Music: Um, CNN reported that you used it more than 250 times in 2020. Does that sound right? Could be. 

Nio: I've had a lot of hoaxes played on me. This is one of 'em. 

Trump Deposition: Um, 

Music: isn't 

Trump Deposition: it true that you also referred to the use 

Music: of mail-in ballots as a hoax? 

Nio: Yeah, I do. Sure I do. And isn't it 

Music: true that you, yourself 

Nio: have voted by mail?

Nio: I do. 

Trump Deposition: I do. Sometimes I do, but I don't know what happens to it once, uh, once you give it, I have no 

Nio: idea. Okay. 

Trump Deposition: Now, are you familiar with woman by the name of Natasha 

Nio: Storino? No. 

Trump Deposition: Natasha Sto off Oh, I, I do remember there was some woman that wrote and then she, a long time later, I think she wrote a wonderful story and then a long time later.

Trump Deposition: As I remember [00:27:00] it, a long time later, she said that I was 

Nio: aggressive with her. Are you familiar 

Trump Deposition: with a woman by the name of Jessica Leeds? This woman made up a story just like your client made it up. 

Nio: Just 

Trump Deposition: made up a story having to do with sitting me in a, sitting next to me an airplane. When you said in that video that Ms.

Trump Deposition: Leeds would not be your first choice, 

Music: you were referring to her 

Trump Deposition: physical looks correct. Just the? Overall, not my, I look at her, I see her. I hear what she says. Whatever. You wouldn't be a choice of mine either, to be honest with you. I hope you're not insulted. I would not under any circumstances have any interest in you.

Trump Deposition: I'm, I'm honest when I say it, uh, I would not have any interest in here. something that's often referred to as the Access Hollywood tape. Yes, I am. 

Music: This and that video was. Billy Bush. 

Nio: That's right. 

Trump Deposition: Please let me, this is very, this is very old news. Fully litigated during debates, during everything else.

Trump Deposition: Fully litigated. Okay. And you know what I said then? And I say it now, locker room [00:28:00] talk. That was locker room talk. Okay. That's what goes on. 

Music: I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. 

Trump Deposition: Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. 

Music: You can do anything by the pussy. You could do anything.

Music: That's what 

Nio: you said, correct? Well, historically, that's true with stars. It's true with 

Music: stars that, that they 

Trump Deposition: women by the pussy. Well that's what, that's, if you look over the last million years, I guess that's been largely true. Not always, but largely 

Nio: trip a million years, unfortunately. Unfortunately. And 

Music: you consider yourself, 

Trump Deposition: uh, to be a star.

Music: I think you can say that. Yeah. What? 

Gianni Storm: He's so full of it. 

Nio: That's Gianni Sprint. You're gonna call that Gianni? 

Rob B: No, no, no, no, no, no, no. He, he's hilarious. 

Nio: That's your boy. That's your boy. So Carol team has been trying to use, uh, Trump's past statements as evidence, arguing that his controversial remarks and behavior towards women make the alleged assault more plausible.

Nio: This is a civil case, so, you know, it's, it's benefit of the doubt, sort of instead of um, uh, what do they call it? Uh, anyway, [00:29:00] so now Trump continues to say his comments are just locker room talk. So my question to you guys is, should locker room talk or something you said on tv, be enough evidence to use in court?

Nio: I'll start with Gianni. 

Gianni Storm: Yeah, I, here's the thing. I have, um, an argument in defense of it and also not in defense. So in defense, 

Nio: in defense, uhoh, we're gonna zoom in Gianni, we're gonna have to, let's on Gianni, we need to, 

Gianni Storm: so in defense to the whole locker room talk, it's kind of arguable that these types of behind the scenes private conversations shouldn't be taken to the courtroom if it doesn't directly have to do with the crime itself.

Gianni Storm: Mm-hmm. So like, if you wanna, he help Peyton a picture about that person. Okay. Um, to, so the jury can kind of make a conclusion, then that's where that's helpful. But it's technically biased if it doesn't have to do with the direct crime itself, but not in defense of [00:30:00] him. There are rappers, and me and Neil talked about this too the other day, but there are rappers that are getting locked up for their lyrics.

Gianni Storm: Um, and that are still in jail for their lyrics and, and being criminalized by their lyrics. So I think that, yeah, it's only fair for politicians and the like to be charged because of something that they said as long as it directly criminalizes 

Nio: them. Well, wasn't your, wasn't your argument with the, um, with the rappers, your argument was that they should not be, their lyrics should not be used as a means to as evidence.

Nio: Right. Their lyrics should not be used. That was your argument before. Their lyrics should not be used. Yes. 

Music: But it, but 

Nio: you're saying is, but you, so you're saying in effort to be fair, it should. Yeah. In this case, be used as evidence, but lock them up. Yeah. In general, you don't believe that these type of things should be used as evidence?

Nio: I see what you're saying. 

Gianni Storm: N not necessarily, because like, when it comes to the defense of artists and even actors and stuff like that, they're creating art. Mm-hmm. I don't know. I have a way of separating the art from the artist, so I feel like how 

Rob B: can we make that you're, you're talking, you're,[00:31:00] you're, you're, you're just making a distinction between creative content as opposed to conversation.

Gianni Storm: Right, right. Yes. Thanks, Rob. Mm-hmm. 

Nio: Yeah. That's fair, Robbie. 

Rob B: Well, you know, uh, like everything else, Trump claims it never happened. It's a hoax. It's a hoax. I, I, I love, I love that. Favorite 

Music: words. 

Rob B: But like Johnny said, like let's be honest, locker room talk does happen. But in this instance, not only did he repeat it during the deposition, he defended it and he said, yes, you know, he's the kind of person who is entitled to this sort of behavior.

Rob B: He wasn't joking around during that segment of his deposition. He wasn't telling Nope. An ill-advised locker room joke. He tried to normalize the behavior. Mm-hmm. By saying that stars have been doing this for the last million years and he doubles down that he considers himself a star in his follow up answer.

Music: Where did he get a million years? Well, 

Nio: you know, [00:32:00] he's everything anyway. No, 

Rob B: what? Yeah. Yeah. But you know at, I think that in this, in the comments do go beyond locker talk and establish modus Opera, Brandi, this is how he is and I think that his comments support the prosecution. Yeah, he really did not do himself any favors during the deposition, the way that he worded things.

Rob B: And the last thing that the defense would want is to put this clown on 

Nio: stand. Oh my God. 

Rob B: Because every time he, every time he opens his mouth, he incriminates himself. He says stupid stuff. So, no. Oh, I would love to see it, because he keeps saying, you know, yeah. You know, I'm ready for the challenge. Just put me out there.

Nio: But he'll never do it. Yes. The cut close cases. So they're all, they're all good on that. The, the deposition is the extent of it. But, uh, Mike winter, in my intro, I couldn't get the words. I couldn't remember the words. I was trying to, you know how my brain works sometime. I'm getting old. I'm getting old. He says, benefit of the doubt is not a legal standard, sir.

Nio: Yes, I know. Preponderance of the evidence is what I was looking for. Oh, you, yep. Um, yeah. So preponderance of the evidence is what I'm looking legal jargon. Yeah. So that is correct. Rules. Rules of evidence allow this Hollywood statement because of, is evidence of his attitude towards women supports his pattern of behavior.

Nio: Just [00:33:00] accurate. Yep. Yeah. My thoughts, I mean, you know how I love Trump, you know, he's my favorite person on the planet. Love, hate. Yeah. You do relationship. Yeah, you do. No, I, I totally hate Trump. So, um, but 

Music: he's just so sleazy. 

Nio: He's just sleazy. And you could tell throughout the deposition he was lying. I mean, it's just so easy to, he doesn't even lie.

Nio: Well, I don't even know how a jury could not look at that and be like, this is a lying. 

Music: Yeah. He's 

Gianni Storm: very careless with his feet. He's very, he doesn't care. 

Nio: So, so let me ask you, do you think it's true the stars have gotten away with grabbing women by the pussy for like a million years? I'm 

Gianni Storm: gonna be honest, 

Music: yes.

Music: I think so. I I think that, 

Rob B: I think that anyone, there's an abuse of power. Any, anyone that's in a position of power or authority, um, they can absolutely abuse that. And there are bad apples everywhere. So I think that we can, we don't have to [00:34:00] relegate it to the entertainment world, but Right. Yeah. It's, you know, if you look at high ranking, prominent people, these types of 

Nio: skin, so they're all grabbing people 

Rob B: private.

Rob B: There's a lot of them. There's a lot of this weird entitlement Right. With power and, and influence. Yeah. 

Gianni Storm: Yeah. And some of them get away with it and some of them don't, so. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Mm-hmm. I 

Music: think, I think he's kind of 

Gianni Storm: right about that. 

Nio: All right. So you think he's, if he gets convicted, well, if he, if he gets a guilty, uh, response, do you think it's gonna negatively impact his campaign?

Gianni Storm: He's done. A lot of 

Music: people hate him already. Yeah. 

Rob B: I don't know. His, his sickle They stick to him with blue man. It's crazy. So I would l but I think w what I've said in the past is that I think that this will give his moderates, the moderates, uh, supporters a, an opportunity to stray away that this will give them an opportunity to break off.

Rob B: But the really crazy rightwing aren't going anywhere. They're gonna, they're gonna keep supporting him through 

Nio: thick and thin and important thing to remind people Yeah. This is not a criminal case. This is a civil case. [00:35:00] So he's not actually being criminally charged for rape, so he's no jail time proof 

Rob B: is reduced.

Rob B: Yeah. And the burden is of proof is reduced preponderance of evidence. 

Nio: Yep. Instead of reasonable doubt. Yep. All right. Um, so lemme get to these comments. We have a bunch on this one. Uhoh Trump. Yeah. Uh, Mike Winter says, probably wouldn't be admitted in a criminal case because it's more prejudicial than probative.

Nio: Absolutely. Tracy Gore, right? Anyone who chooses to be in the public eye should be accountable for their conduct, including words said, higher level conduct should be expected. Jacqueline Robinson. We also have to remember that this is a defamation case stemming from IQ 40 Fives trashing of, uh, Ms.

Nio: Carroll's character. This goes to his attitude as well as his framing of his comments, which he has done repeatedly. Mike Winter, let's not forget that he, that she isn't his type, although he misidentified her as his ex Marla, [00:36:00] right? But I mean, let's, let's face it, you're not my type. You're just like my ex-wife, huh?

Nio: Every 

Rob B: woman that he, why would he say that Entangled with is not his type? Come on, man. He's not leading man material himself. He just had money. 

Nio: Later in the deposition, he does, they, they whittle it down to he, he just, uh, he kind of lashes out at anyone who goes, who attacks him or gets at him or something like that.

Nio: So if you, if you listen to a deposition, it, it pretty much comes to nobody's his type, no woman is his type. If they go after him, 

Gianni Storm: I just can't believe he was our president. Like I just, 

Music: right. No, that's not like, I just, my brain won't let, we can't believe it was your 

Nio: president. Yeah. Rob's lucky he doesn't have to, he doesn't have to own that.

Nio: Oh, come 

Rob B: on, dude. The influence is, oh my God. I'm sorry. No, I'm sorry. He has radicalized Canadian politics as well because our conservatives have jumped onto his rhetoric. It's, but you don't have to actually 

Nio: his own Trump as your president. So that's know, right? We, we, we claim [00:37:00] it. 

Gianni Storm: Yeah. We have to actually claim that.

Gianni Storm: Yeah. By proxy. 

Nio: We have to said this was a special moment. What a buffoon. All right. Is this truth? Lies shenanigans. Lies shenanigans. This gives me shean. He his shenanigans. 

Music: Yep. Here it is. Shenanigan. Shenanigan. 

Nio: Yep. That's, I guess that's my boy. I have to own him. 

Music: He's a king of shenanigan. Ha. Have so much hate for 

Nio: him.

Nio: It's just I have to own him. 

Music: Fuels you. It fuels 

Nio: you. Few. Few. Yeah. It's, it's me. All me. All right. Let's get to the next one. Shenanigans. All Robbie Serbia is seeking, is seeing mass shootings like the us. What's their solution? Well, 

Rob B: no, they're not. They've seen two mass shootings this week, and the last one was in 2013.

Rob B: But the response is brilliant in my opinion. So Serbia's President Alexander VCI has stated that the country will undergo an almost complete [00:38:00] disarming after the two mass shootings in just 48 hours. So the second incident took place on Friday. Sawman opened fire from a moving car, killing eight people and injuring 14.

Rob B: And this followed a shooting at a school by a 13 year old boy, which left eight fellow pupils and a security guard dead. And like I mentioned, the last mass shooting was in 2013. So President VCI has announced plans to conduct a revision of all people who possess firearms with the aid of reducing the number of legal firearms from around 400,000 to no more than 30 or 40,000.

Rob B: So this will be accompanied by more frequent background checks, psychiatric and psychological tests, drug testing for weapon holders. Uh, additional, uh, additionally penalties for illegal possession of firearms, uh, will be doubled and carrying weapons, like knives will be subject to increased penalties. So now in light of Serbia's efforts to reduce gun violence, what lessons can the United States learn from Serbia's approach to gun control?

Rob B: I'll start. [00:39:00] Hmm. 

Nio: So, okay. I mean, what can the US learn? I mean, it would be great if they could figure out the reality of it's better to remove guns from the situation, right? I mean, yeah. You can't control people. Cause people are people. You, you can do your best to control people, but you, you can't control people, but you can control what you can control, which is guns and the availability of guns.

Nio: And so that's what Serbia is trying to do, and I get it, but I still see Serbia as different. Um, and I don't know that you can do in what way? A one for one comparison. Well, for one, you know, the US hasn't been, had wars at home in what, uh, two, almost 200 years now. Right. Since the Civil War. Mm-hmm. So we haven't had to face or be prepared for wars.

Nio: You look at Serbia, they were in war just what, 25 years ago or so? They, they're just coming outta the war, the nineties. Oh, wow. Right. So [00:40:00] the nineties. Yeah. Yeah. So we're not, it's not far from that. And then Serbia has a huge organized crime issue. Um, they have issues with, again, the wars, so safety of their citizens, safety of citizens from each other.

Nio: Um, and they don't have a, a well, um, formed police force as well, so, Hmm. You know, where we have a police force that. If you call 9 1 1, they'll come. It's not that this response is not exactly the same, you know, we're not gonna get, they're not necessarily gonna see them in two minutes and, or they're right around the corner and, and they'll show up at your house and protect you.

Nio: That's not exactly the case. So, I don't know. I don't know for one, if it makes sense to unarm their citizens in Serbia, um, I get the mass shooting issue. But also say that if I were in the similar situation where I needed to protect my home and my family, you know, from something and, [00:41:00] and I couldn't depend on a police force to do that, I think I would want to have weapons.

Nio: Let's ask Gianni, because Gianni is actually a gun owner, so let's find out what you think. Gianni, I do 

Music: own a couple guns. 

Nio: Um, you said a couple. I didn't even realize it was a couple. All right. 

Music: Yeah,

Gianni Storm: so no, I feel, but the thing is, um, Neil, I do get your point. That is That is interesting to know that Serbia didn't have Obviously countries have differences, but it is interesting to know their differences. And side note, I would like to know how like Serbian citizens feel about that. Like, are, are they upset?

Gianni Storm: Mm-hmm. Or, you know, how do they feel? That's interesting. But, um, to answer Rob, to answer Rob, about how this, how what we could take as Americans, I think that if we were to implement this much control, see, I have differing opinions because I think that there would either be pushback or No, I just feel there would be pushback.

Gianni Storm: Oh, there definitely, I feel 

Music: like there would be, 

Nio: of course there would be, there's already pushback. 

Gianni Storm: So then that's, that means it won't really fully work. Like it means it won't be implemented. Not 

Nio: only that, it's not just pushback. We literally have it in our constitution that you are [00:42:00] allowed to have weapons, your arms, you know, bear arms.

Nio: So it's, it's, it's in the, it's the bases of our, our laws for our entire country. So, I mean, what do you, it's not like you can just throw it away. What they can change the laws. I mean, I'd like to, no, don't get me wrong. Don't get me wrong, Robbie. 200 years 

Rob B: ago, Neil, don't get me wrong, the second amendment, 

Nio: don't get me wrong, I'm just talking to Gianni's point.

Nio: I know that we can change it. I'm well aware it can be changed. I'm about say yeah, definitely. I'm saying that the problem for Gianni of people, the us it's not as simple as just getting pushback. You have to get it changed in the law. And it's not, and that's not as simple as Rob B's making it out to be either.

Nio: Because the problem is lawmakers, you know, we got, and, and the way the country is, you know, politically separated, uh, with, you know, red states, blue states and all that stuff, it's not, it's not like we can just snap our fingers and do amendment because an amendment to the Constitution is harder than just simply passing a law [00:43:00] because you have to get more, uh, buy-in.

Nio: So I think it's like . 67% I believe it is. Yes. It's 

Gianni Storm: much more complicated. It's much more complicated to implement that into our country. But something else we talked about too, uh, before was when it came to gun control was implementing like the psychiatric tests and the psychological tests to weapon owners and people trying to get a, trying to get a weapon in general.

Gianni Storm: That's something that I like that Serbia is doing. Um, and I agree with like the ban on issuing new gun permits. Like are we should have a ban? Like maybe there should, why do we keep selling them? We, you know what I mean? At this point, American, we don't need to keep selling the gun. So maybe even something as small as that could be beneficial.

Gianni Storm: Um, but what I don't like and I don't get is, is the Serbian leader, is he volunteer allowing the citizens to voluntarily give their guns? Or is it like martial law type of thing? Like right 

Rob B: now it's not. You have to, oh, Johnny it, when it was implemented in Australia, It wasn't even, it, it wasn't a topic for discussion.

Rob B: They had a mass shooting in the eighties. The government [00:44:00] said, we need sweeping reform. They implemented it, and of course it's, Hey, turn in your guns voluntarily. Absolutely. But these guns are registered, so they're gonna come knocking on your door and say, Hey, you've got this, this, or you have too many of these.

Rob B: They're gonna come and take your guns. And you know what, Johnny? Wow. It's, you know, all the fear mongering that's been done by the nra. Oh, they're gonna come and take my guns. You know what? They should, they should, I'm sorry. The gun ownership rates, to put it into context in Serbia, about 7 million, a population of 7 million people.

Rob B: The gun ownership rate is 39.1 per 100,000, uh, per 100 citizens. Gun ownership rates in the US with a population of about 335 million is 120.5 for 100, that is 400 million guns, registered guns. This doesn't account for ghost guns, which is a, an unregistered and there's a lot toxic industry. Exactly. So these are just the guns that you know of what, [00:45:00] why?

Rob B: Because of the fear mongering and because of the money. And because America, it's fun to shoot a gun. Yes. We all agree. It's fun to shoot a gun. It really is. But you don't need to have a gun when you go out for coffee. And Neil, it's, I appreciate your comment about, you know, wanting to protect your family.

Rob B: But if you take the guns away from people, they don't have the same tools to inflict harm upon, 

Nio: defend yourself. Let's be realistic about Serbia. I mean, it's not gonna be that simple to get guns away from organized crime. It's not gonna be that easy to get guns away from. Not easy at all from, uh, other militias that are out there that are still existence.

Nio: It's only been 25 years. Oh my, absolutely. So if I'm in, I'm just, I just was saying if I'm in that situation in Serbia, it would be hard for them to get guns outta my hand in that situation. In the United States situation, we have a [00:46:00] well-formed police force that does protect us most of the times, at least.

Nio: Most of our citizens, maybe not our black citizens like they should, 80 80. But, but we have, I'm just, I'm just speaking to putting myself in the Serbian situation. It's very different and it's hard to compare one for one is all I'm saying. Uh uh Yeah. Right. I do believe, I agree with you. We need to, I would like to see the laws change.

Nio:  from the first amendment, but I don't know that I would like to see guns gone 100% until the youth force. No, I'm not saying they and the government, that's more trustworthy. Yeah. But they need 

Rob B: to there be a significant de military de de military rise. Oh my God. 

Nio: Dili need to, you got it away from 

Rob B: people.

Rob B: Yes. No, I didn't. But I think that one of the biggest changes that needs to occur in the US to try to curb this and to try to learn from other countries. Implement strict requirements for obtaining a gun license, including a medical, yeah. There should be much stricter requirements, a psychological evaluation.

Rob B: And these can all be done required, require gun safety [00:47:00] training. Oh, absolutely. And this needs to be done at a federal level because when you go state by state and people make up their own crazy rules, no, no, no, no. This seems needs to be regulated at a federal level. 

Music: I gotta get to, but there 

Gianni Storm: are the people, like you said, the ghost gun people.

Gianni Storm: Like there are people I'm sure that I know that do not have registered guns, but there are, they have 

Nio: plenty of, Hey Gianni, what kind crowds are you? I'm just kidding. 

Rob B: And that's why you need to shut down that industry, Johnny, because it's legal to sell these gun parts online. People buy miscellaneous parts from different online manufacturers and put a working gun together.

Rob B: Come on. 

Nio: But see, that's good Gianni, because you provide a good point of view because you know you have been in a situation where you have known people that have unregistered guns. And so, yeah. You know, how do you protect yourself against that if the police aren't gonna protect you? Yeah. And when the police aren't gonna protect you in your neighbor in those neighborhoods, uh, aren't gonna, so what do you do other [00:48:00] than get your own gun?

Nio: I mean, get your own. I'm fortunate to, I have privilege in that. I, I live in a decent neighborhood, and, and yeah. Right. And so I'm fortunate in that sense. And if I call the police, I'll most likely show up at least to my neighborhood. They may get to my house and look the other way, but at least they'll show up, you know?

Nio: But let's get to these comments online. It's a bunch on this one. So let's let's get to this. Yeah. Mike Winter says, Serbia has a bunch of ultra-conservative idiots as well. That won't go over well. Hmm. Didn't know that Jacqueline Robs, it might be easier there because they're more homogeneous, homogenous ho Now I'm talking like you homogenous homogeneous.

Nio: Right. Than the us. Tracy Gore says someone needs to break the news to America. The Wild, wild West is no more. Y'all don't need to shoot your Turkey in Thanksgiving. Uh, time to put the guns away. Mike Winter says, too many American gun owners have heard centuries of [00:49:00] fear mongering get guns to protect white Americans from Black Americans.

Nio: Very true. Um, Mike Winter, uh, Tracy Gore says, Mike Winter. That is propaganda. Propaganda at its finest. Jacqueline Robinson, we actually had an assault weapons ban for 10 years and to sit then the Senator Joe Biden, it worked. It wasn't until Bush too that the ban was allowed to expire. Wow. Mike Winter read the Second Amendment, which begins a well-formed militia.

Nio: It has a history associated less with the Revolutionary War and war with suppression of slave results. Revolts. Hmm.

Nio: Tracy Gore says my son-in-law in Ohio was completely against gun control until he was a father. The kids about to go to school. The ongoing school shootings have ha and him wait, the ongoing school shootings and having his own investment with his own kids has changed his tune. His, that's how I feel.

Nio: Cuz you gotta, if I feel like if I don't have a police force or people to protect [00:50:00] my children myself Yeah, my family, then I have to, and the only way that I can against guns is guns is with guns. Mm-hmm. And the last comment here Jacqueline Robinson, the problem is that the so-called stand your ground laws only work for certain people. And it's not No. The melanated folks. All right. Is this truth? Yes. Lies, shenanigans. Shenanigans. 

Gianni Storm: Um, this is Serbia's. Truth. 

Music: Some truth. 

Nio: That's some truth.

Nio: And 

Gianni Storm: America should take some 

Nio: notes. We should at least listen to Serbia. I mean, they got the right idea. I don't know. Take some notes. It's gonna work in, take some notes. We'll see. They're not gonna take no, no notes. We'll see. All right. Let's get to our game show.

Music: Great topics. Yes, it would. It 

Gianni Storm: would be crazy though if we, like finally in America had some gun control and then out of nowhere [00:51:00] there was like a war on our home front. That would be ironic. 

Nio: But that's not a dude. What do 

Rob B: you call, what do you look? Look at your military. You don't need this. You don't need armed citizens.

Rob B: You don't need a militia. Look at your military force. Oh, the military 

Nio: don't, can't need it. True. Don't the military. Military cannot do anything on US grounds. On home 

Music: ground. Mm. Or if you're invaded, I'm sure they will. The National Guard, aren't you worry 

Nio: son. National Guard if we're invaded. That's true.

Nio: That's a good one. Alright, we gotta call, we gotta get, we gotta, we're done with the topics guys. We gotta get to our's joining. We gotta, we gotta lighten it up. Now we gotta lighten it up. True. Alright. Alright. Today's game. We're starting our mid-season break next week everyone. So a little bad news, but.

Nio: It's gonna be Mother's Day next week. So today's game is Mother's Day trivia. All right. If you get the right answer, you get a point person with the most points gets the final thought for the show. Nice and simple. All right, we're starting off [00:52:00] with Gianni Storm. What President made Mother's Day an official holiday.

Nio: Was that Woodrow Wilson, bill Clinton, John F. Kennedy, or Abe Lincoln, 

Music: who seemed like a mama's boy? Um, maybe. 

Gianni Storm: I'm, uh, who's Woodrow? Wilson. Okay. Is it jfk? 

Nio: Is that what you're going for? That's your final answer, jfk Final answer. That is internally on with Woody Woodrow Wilson. Woodrow Wilson. All right. Uh, the correct answer is Woodrow Wilson.

Nio: All right. Nice. He's also a racist, but we won't go into all that. All right, we'll skip that. All right, Robbie, which Beatles mother bought her son? Oh, you should know this.
