Hey Leeja ,apropo carbon footprint ( which is the ultimate greenwashing in my opinion) , will you have a chance in the future to dive into the law’s pov on environmental cases ?
This video was very fascinating! Is there a possibility for a part 2 in strange/petty wills 😁??
Hey. What is with your defence of Amber Heard who is the abuser.
@@bethbates9826 it's a pretty easy guess. Leeja is a woman working in a legal system that consistently dismisses and discredits women who face abuse, while letting a lot of men get away with a lot of shit. It's an environment that will absolutely cause you to lean towards siding with women in cases that are the slightest bit ambiguous, especially because the US justice system has a very lacking understanding of how victims respond to trauma and so a lot of very real cases in which women are victims fail to stand up in court because of the way the events are misunderstood.
It's also an emotionally charged situation for a lot of left-leaning people, because we are just WAITING for right-wing idiots to twist this verdict. When it was still being litigated, I was doing the math in my head, and I was like well if she wins they'll say feminism has gone to far because clearly she was the abuser, but if he wins they'll say feminism has gone too far because she was obviously trying to ride the current of the left's focus on female victims to accuse an innocent man, and there's already a lot of paranoid raging about accusation from women being false, in right-leaning circles, it's kind of a cluster fuck no matter how you look at it. There was no way for this case to go that would've been an actual win in terms of how it changed the culture around this sort of accusation and trial. (And maybe you'll want to say not everything is about us and the Discourse ™ which is true, but high profile shit like this always has a knock-on effect and you can't be over-prepared really.) So at one point you stop splitting hairs and you just have to pick a side.
Leeja wasn't on the jury for this trial though. Depp won, and what she thinks about it can't change that. So asking her to explain herself doesn't do much. I get how much it sucks to have someone whose content you enjoy hold an opinion that is *this* incompatible with yours. I'm sorry that happened.
@@Rissa_1322 Yeah, but its pretty obvious that Amber is a liar. Men get abused all the time.
Houdini had that pact with his wife not so she could contact him from beyond the grave, but to prove no such contact could be made. He hated mediums and psychics and made it a hobby of sorts to disprove them and reveal them as frauds.
And the code was also so mediums couldn't say they spoke to Harry without proof. One of my favorite facts about him is Arthur Conan Doyle wanted to try and prove psychics were real and his wife contacted Houdini's mom from the grave and wrote what she said. Harry instantly knew it was fake since his mother couldn't read, speak, or write in English
IIRC he really had it in for the whole Spiritualist movement. As a fellow who was intimate with magic tricks, he probably knew all of theirs!
I’m guessing he was probably a big influence of James Randi.
Oh, my God! That neverending quote from the probate judge was hysterical! I rewatched that part a couple times. Thanks for that.
I _beg_ you to recuse me.
Hilarious 😂
@@lodgin I totally kept reading it as RESCUE ME lmao
Dude was DONE with that nonsense 😂
@@jessventures6172 so did I. I maintain that rescue is not wrong. LoL
Also worth mentioning is Joan Crawford. She wrote “I leave nothing for my daughter Christina for reasons that are well known to her”. Christina’s memoir, Mommie Dearest, is often seen as her revenge because it alleges that the famous movie star was actually an abusive monster at home.
Sadly now it's just remembered for the camp film, wish people knew how bad Christina had it based on her memoir and people around them witnesses how crazy Joan could be
The thing with Mommie Dearest's camp sensibilities is that they come out of complete accident. Not to mention that the actress that portrayed Crawford, Faye Dunaway, had her hands all over the place on the movie. Her involvement in the movie itself made it more campy. If you compare the book with the movie... the book is waaay more tame than the movie. Yes, Christina has said that her relationship with her mother was tumultuous at best, but it wasn't like the monster Dunaway portrayed.
@@DansDubsCovers I agree with you in general, though I think the Crawford experience was worse than the 2 hr. movie as it lasted 18+ years.
@Grace Nurse No doubt about that, and yet, Christina has said that Faye Dunaway's Joan was only accurate in the makeup and nothing else, that her portrayal was insanely extreme compared to what she experienced. In fact, Faye was pretty much intolerable both in and out of character. Christina, in the book, struggles between loving her mother and recalling good memories of her, but living through the very traumatic abuse and behavior.
In case anyone is curious - there's a lot of evidence that Anna Nicole Smith did genuinely love J Howard Marshall (or at least was very fond of him) and only pushed for 1/2 his money bc the son tried to make sure she got left out in the cold before his dad had even passed. Basically, he was so terrified his dad was going to give some of his own money to his hot wife that the son put her on the defensive when she likely would have been very happy with an amount of money he wouldn't have even noticed was gone.
I think Anna got a lot of misogynistic attacks but your comment is really not true either. Anna received millions of dollars worth of allowances and jewelry in the course of that marriage. The notion that she would be penniless if left out of the will was therefore laughed out of the court. In fact I remember that her lawyers strategy to combat this little problem was to have her testify about how high her spending was even after his death. I remember that this footage from the court was played on loop on the news for days. She was listing off insane numbers with zero self awareness. Right or wrong its what finally sealed her reputation as a gold digger.
The son also received a lot of sympathy because he was a grandfather at that point. It wasn't just a cash grab for himself but to protect 2 more generations. Meanwhile, she was suing alongside the traitor son who she KNEW Marshall wanted cut out. So it seemed like her need to win was more important than Marshall's wishes.
Again, not trying to attack the dead but it's a law channel and I thought I should share the actual facts.
Greed ruins lives
Yes! I don’t know if you’ve heard of the podcast “You’re Wrong About,” but they have an amazing episode about her life.
@@benjaccard194 you’re wrong about is amazing. disappointed that we’ll probably never see the end of the oj series now that michael is gone :/
Maybe it's just me, but if someone is willing to marry you, they should be willing to share. So what if it was only about her body! Plenty of marriages between spouses of like ages are just about the body but they don't get questioned.
Rich or not PLEASE get a will! I begged my parents to just get a simple will. They kept saying well you and your brother will just split it 50/50. Well my older brother is a narcissistic hoarder so that would be a disaster for me to deal with while grieving. My mom had dementia which was getting worse so when my dad died I got her to a lawyer and told him we need a 50/50 split because that's what they wanted. I also suggested my mom want to designate something for my brother's children (he's a deadbeat so he couldn't be trusted). We did that and I'm relieved every day that I did. It would have been a legal and emotional disaster for me without a will. It allowed me to care for my mom then grieve for my mom with some semblance security.
This. My grandma lived for 20+ years on a farm in the woods with her older brother and his disabled wife. The property/land was in his name, but she did the majority of the upkeep, farming, really p much everything as he was often too sick. My parents tried persuading her to have her name be put on the deed, but she always said "it's my own brother, I trust him" etc etc etc. Well, the brother died and his step children who never visited, never contributed, had literally zero to do with the place and him and their mother, obviously inherited the whole thing. They sold the land for a huge amount, a lawyer paid out a couple grand to my grandma and her nieces and nephews (they all got the same amount, despite, again, having had fuck all to do with the place) and that was it. After that meeting the step kids passed around a hat so everyone could chip in for the lawyer's fees, and, what ended up being the most insulting part, after that we all went for dinner and midway through this they said "don't worry, we've told the staff that everyone's paying separately". These people that had just basically won 100k+ couldn't even be bothered paying for one dinner
@@Zelomakitoko I'm so sorry that happened! These things can go so wrong.
I love that judge's statement, you can feel his despair
It's an amazing quote and I really feel for them xD
I married into a wealthy family, and you’d be surprised how often they talk about what they want done when they die and what is going to happen to their estate. Definitely talk to your loved ones so they know what you want and make sure you get it in writing.
WRITING!! WITNESSED!! COPIED!!
DISTRIBUTED!!
Oh My God, literally my biggest concern when dani Lynn's paternity was up in the air was "I hope all these men squabbling about her paternity are at least able to care about her too" like what a low bar.. but I'm glad that at least she gets a happy (relatively) ending
Same here. The update that her dad loves her like a normal dad is the information about Anna Nicole Smith that I never knew I wanted.
I'm so glad that her daughter is living a normal life, and her dad is just being the most average dad possible for her. I remember when the battle over her paternity was going on a lot of people speculated that these guys were coming out of the woodworks to claim her for money, and my mom was so worried she wasn't gonna get a normal childhood.
Omg I love that Houdini bit, because he was an avid disbeliever of mediums and spiritualists and he would regularly go to famous spiritualist performances and discredit them. Even in his death, he was calling out those lying conmen.
Rich people fighting over money they didn’t earn. So much fun to watch or read about. Not schadenfreude, just kooky fun. Thanks.
the judge who finally quit on the case is my hero. i would have tossed every single thick book i could find at these people after the first year.
This video makes me think that if I were to write a will, I could include a clause demanding that any of the fanfiction I have not yet published be published postumously on Ao3 in a collection of work titled "From My Junk Drawer"
Yes! Please especially if you remarry and have kids. My mom amd her siblings got screwed bc my granddad didn't update his will after getting remarried and so his wife of less than a year (iirc) walked away w so much shit that had been in the family for years and had been meant for them in the original will. Luckily, they got a lot of it after taking her to court, but there's stuff they're still mad about and apparently she wouldn't even let them talk to him when he was in the hospital after his final heart attack (issue he'd been dealing with for years, too much scar tissue for a pacemaker).
My grandparents split their funds between all of their kids equally, except for my aunt who was left an exact dollar amount just over 7k because she spent that much on stuff for them then tried to use the purchase as leverage to have them move in with her as free live in house cleaners/gardener/cook/childcare.
Said aunt contested the will at the last minute and my grandparents lawyer was so petty he only offered more than the just over 7k when we told him to just accept their 25k offer (full share was about 50k) so we could be done with her.
He offered 15k and planned to accept their counter offer but they accepted the 15k.
fun fact: the reason Houdini and his wife did the whole seance thing is because they wanted to proof ghosts weren't real and wanted to discredit the "psychics" who steal people's money claiming they can connect them with their passed loved ones
Interesting... as always.
FYI, in Dutch law a child has an inheritance part that can't be taken away by any will. So you can't disinherit your kids, or your spouce. You can cut down the inheritance to the legal minimum, which is still a percentage of the whole. The spouce and kids get the same minimum share. You can ofcourse divorce your spouce but you can't disinherit them while the mariage is still in effect.
All this to stymie these type of shenanigans. And worse.
France has a similar law.
It's a lot like German inheritance laws
My grandpa died in 2008 and though he did draft a will it went missing after he died. Since my family LOVES to pretend we're all immortal he never had a serious sit down with his families (he had three different sets of children by three different women) to discuss how he wanted his estate divided, shit hit the fan immediately after the funeral. Literally over a dozen people are to this day fighting over the millions he left behind.
Same thing happened with my mum, she knew she was sick and most likely knew she was dying but didn't want to accept it. No will in sight so once again, the little she got from my grandpa's estate was fought over. My dad and I were granted administration but I highly doubt that would be the case if my little sisters (minors who actually need the money to *live*) weren't involved.
If you're reading this, please write up some kind of will. Doesn't matter how little you have or how insignificant you think your possessions might be to others, if there's anyone or anything you'd like to see benefit once you're gone- especially charitable causes- then it's worth the extra steps.
8:15 The Houdini will regarding seances was ironic, given that a large part of his career had been dedicated to debunking false "spirit mediums."
That last one was like a knife fight in a phone booth.
I feel so bad for that Probate Judge I'm crying!
I remember seeing all the headlines and tabloid covers regarding Anna Nicole, but didn't really follow the court battles. OMG what a rollercoaster ride!!!
They say a death brings out the worst and the best in people.
When in 9th grade (16yo) in social studies class we were learning about wills. We could write our own will and I think I still have it somewhere. As I have been too lazy to write a new one it's legally binding if found. In it I think I gave all of my assets to our cat.
If you shred the original and there's no copies, ✨ it never happened. ✨ I also don't know the enforceability of a will that's written by a 16 year old unless it was still endorsed at age 18 (which could be as simple as seeing it, not objecting to anything, and just do nothing)
@@Metroid250 I don't know where it is and am too lazy to try and find it. Also in Finnish law, the minimum for a will is that the person writing it and the witnesses have to be at least 16. Both them are true so the will is legally valid
I’m sorry to bring this up but unless your cat lives a REALLY long time this is probably a moot point…
My own petty will story: my abusive bio grandma was super pissed when my mom finally went no contact when we were kids. She mailed this super condescending letter saying that she will cut me and my sister out of the will if my Mom goes no contact with my birthday presents. My mom kept the letter but mailed back the birthday presents. Fast forward a couple of decades letter when she finally kicks the bucket and we finally get the will: turns out my sister and I were in the will and there was a hasty and angry amendment cutting me and my sister out on the date she would have received the returned birthday presents.
Both of my parents are narcissist and one of my sisters is. None of us are rich. According to the reverse snobs commenting at this video, only rich people behave this way. But you and I both know rich people are no different and us "nornal" people are not necessarily more virtuous. They just have more money and we have less of it. That's it. Same human strengths and frailties.
So very interesting, Thank you for the added entertainment value!
Anna Nicole Smith had a tragic life. I won't pretend that she was a perfect person but in a lot of the media that I followed her in I think she had an understated goodness about her. I wish her life circumstances had taken her down a better road.
I was NOT PREPARED for that judge's self-recusing rant. Quality content. *Chef's kiss 😘👌*
Harry Houdini or, as he's known in the afterlife, Seancé Knowles
That judge recusal is AMAZING lmao
Anna Nicole Smith Lawyer #14: What the hell is this? Are these files from 1996? Is this a GUESS catalog? What happened to the last guy?
67-year-old White Dude Managing Partner: He quit. Got tired of being a lawyer. Said he wanted to make a real difference in people's lives.
Lawyer #14: So what's he'd do now?
Managing Partner: *removes CryptKeeper hands from his pockets, revealing a stunning set of rhinestoned acrylics* Nail art.
Okay firstly, this video was brilliant!! 😂 The ending with the Probate judges quote was the icing on the cake for me, so funny!
Secondly, when Anna Nicole did put on weight she still looked gorgeous, I don't get why society looks down on fat people ESPECIALLY fat women. It's weird.
Lastly, loving this content Leeja, entertaining and informative! 💙
Unbelievable reading of the probate judge quote! I just get the very strong feeling you read that quote and were like ‘well… I guess I gotta make this video now’. Nice one, thanks for making such good video!
The level of research and detail in this video, and the clear delight you take in educating us on these demented rich people is such a joy to watch. Thanks for making this, also the white shirt+lipstick+a gold look is v v chic!
Fun fact Anna Nicole Smith fun fact Anna Nicole Smith's legal troubles paid for the pool we spent our high school summers in.
The judge was not the only one who was tired of their shit. I can confirm the court reporter was to.
“They don’t want to agree to anything. They just want to pay lawyers”
Idk why but that wording is hilarious to me 😛
I absolutely love you! So refreshing and that humor gets me errytime I swear 😂🎉❤❤
I didn't think that crazy story would have a heartwarming end, but it did and I'm grateful.
My maiden name is Anna Smith, and for YEARS, people would ask me if my middle name was Nicole? I have even dressed up as Anna Nicole for Halloween, with a little stuffed dog named "Sugar Pie." I knew her legal battles were long and messy, but holy cow, I had no idea how bad it actually was!?! I like your comment... Justice for Anna!
I always thought that I was a trust fund kid, but I asked my mom about the specifics of the will/trust and she said it wasn't a trust. I guess great grandparents just dedicated my portion of the inheritance to ensure that I and my brother get a college education (they were a teacher and professor).
I'm glad rules in the Netherlands are different. For example, you can not cut out your children, you can minimize the amount they get, but not cut them out completely.
Yes! Justice for Anna! Thank you for speaking the truth, she was hot as "fat" Anna and those jokes were RUTHLESS and CONSTANT.
A famous spanish comedian has arranged to have a tanner make a wallet out of his scrotum when he dies, this is supposed to be a gift for his best friend, who was reluctant to accept at first, but now seems to be on board.
My hat is off to that probate judge. I can only imagine how absolutely done with the case they must have been to just fly off the handle like that, finding so many creative ways to say, "No, fuck you people." xD
i was saying to myself that the anna nichole court story sounded like jondyce v jondyce, then you made the dickens comment.
Leeja: goes into the details around Anna Nicole Smith
me: *brain plays the Succession theme*
*pouring one out for the sad associates on Anna's cases*
10/10 for reading the full quote, loved it! For the loopers out there: 19:11
I was just thinking, "It's like Jarndyce and Jarndyce" and then you brought up the Dickens comparison. So apt.
OMG that poor probate judge. Generally I think if a judge recuses himself from a case, its not gonna look good for him but I feel this is hella reasonable. If the two parties will just get along and maybe just agree on compromises, this literal career long circus wouldve ended much faster and happier. but no, theyre both rich enough to keep the cycle going, even after dying. Or at least the wills get updated the first time around-
Also Houndini and Frank Sinatra are valid and clever on their wills xDD
Leija! For kooky rich people stuff, I'd recommend reading Brooke Shields' book she wrote about her relationship with her mother, who was the kooky (semi)celebrity who had warehouses full of things that Brooke only discovered after her mother had passed. I couldn't get over it!
How is that different from anything regular people do? The undiscovered wacky potholder collection or the 2nd family?
@@C.Church She had literal multiple hangars full of belongings from floor to ceiling. Many things had other things hidden inside of them. Like plastic easter eggs with a sock wrapped around a diamond ring inside. Do you know people with that kind of stuff? But if you want to poo poo me cause you're bored go right ahead
@@halevirginia9523 We ALL know people like that. In the same way we ALL know murderers, rapists and molesters. They're just hiding it. Kooky isn't a rich person thing. They just have fancier kooky.
Truth bomb.
@@C.Church Lmao good day to you
@@halevirginia9523 Sorry you don't like reality. Lol Reverse snobs are still snobs. 👍
A will is SUPER IMPORTANT! My dad didnt have one and we had to deal wtih the state and figure shit out. HUGE PAIN IN THE ASS. Super expensive and fucking awful. Have a living will. Death sucks, but making your loved ones dealing with that shit is way WAY worse. As far as shit not signed, my dad had a will BUT IT WASNT FUCKING SIGNED. SIGN THAT SHIT.
I’m gonna need you to ANNUNCIATE when you say knickerbocker 🤣 my heart stopped
Seriously: if you have 10B dollars… is it so difficult to agree on splitting the wills? The laws should be strict on this matter. Share equally among all children snd partner. And thats it.
You probably want to update your will if you cut off the family member who was at one time going to inherit 😁
I threw up in my mouth a little bit when I heard "rule against perpetuities" as a trauma response
Wow. That was a wild ride. And it hits close to home for me, because my husband died eight months ago... without a will. I tried to convince him to get things in order after his terminal diagnosis (as it turned out, he had less than two months at that point), but he just couldn't accept reality... It's disappointing, but I can't judge him for it too much, because I know how hard it was... I witnessed everything. So yeah, just as you said, I'm left picking up the pieces in probate. Hardly anything was liquid, and any assets that remain aren't worth much or are difficult to sell... I'm not even certain it will cover his debts. And his family is being weird... it's a whole mess. If anyone is reading this, please get your stuff in order, regardless of your age or health... you never know what can happen, and I can tell you from experience that it is a nightmare to try to deal with things in our modern era when a deceased person doesn't leave behind any instructions or passwords to any computers or accounts. Please do it for your family and friends who survive you 💟
How could they not just settle with Anna and throw her 10mil or something. Unbelievable. The greed these rich people have is disgusting. Karma do your thing girl!
Love your work and style! XO
The thing with Farrah is weird! She didn't leave anything to her life partner, but gave money to an ex lover??? Something MUST have happened for her to do that. It smells pretty vindictive to me 😕. But who knows I definitely wasn't a fan or followed her in anyway before she died 🤷. Her death was definitely shadowed over by Michael Jackson's death at around the same time.
Fucking hell, after my dad died my family (composed of my father's aunts, cousins and siblings) want to take the money or use me as their personal ATM because they did that to my dad. Now that he's gone and I got everything and they didn't get what they wanted, they betrayed me, created false narratives about me, even some of them have the audacity to ask where the hell did the money went.
It's fucking toxic to witness these things at 22. So I made a written will with my signature, date that it's written and thumbmark. So that even though they'll still fight for what's left of my father and I, I still got the final say, bitches.
Did you have your signature witnessed??
Wow, the Farrah Fawcett will got me shook. Nothing to her own child but 100k to her ex-lover
She DID leave most of her fortune to her son, Redmond - it was the father of her son (Ryan O'Neal) who wasn't left anything. To be fair, it sounds like Ryan was a real asshole (Farrah once caught him in bed with another woman, and he allegedly beat her Farrah up).
"Should I become a Houston stripper?" I'm very very gay, butI live in Houston and if you were a Houston stripper I'd venture in there. I'd bring a bunch of kweens with me, that strip club wouldn't even know what hit it 🤣 Love ya. Love the channel!

Alright?”
@@shortcake66 ooo nooo. My other gay friends and I would not be there doin' that. I just meant with us there at least a few moments of hilarity would ensue and a stripper could feel safe with us for sure 😁
@@bradmiller6621 HaHaHa… I know! I’m just trying to imagine her talking to normal punters, but my brain can’t see or hear her in any other way than how she is on the channel. 😂 I absolutely love the idea of a gay takeover where everyone agrees to go on a certain night, and the girls get one night where they’re not being harassed and treated as sex objects. I think we should Make This Happen
Houdini was one of the most well known skeptics of the Spiritualist movement, and by him and his wife arranging for the seances, he was publicly discrediting the practice. Nice.
I'm surprised there isn't a simple, automatic, default judgment if there is no will or the will is unclear (that's universal across all 50 states)
Judge: "Hey, he didn't have his shit together. That sucks. Anyways, here's the default portions you will receive, determined by your position and the position of other surviving next of kin; on the next of kin priority list."
Seems like it would save a lot of hassle. If you don't see fit to make your wishes known before you become incapacitated or die... then an automatic default judgement seems prudent
My father just died. He didn't have a will. Please don't be selfish like that. Don't put your kids and or loved ones through that. I begged him to have one.
Gave that judge PTSD
Fun fact, the purpose of the seances was for Houdini to continue to prove seances weren't real because he hated spiritualism and the occult.
Yes! I don't like it when people skip over this fact.
Oh fascinating I didn't read that in my research but that's cool to know
just did jury duty for the first time (Ramsey Co). It was super interesting (and as an art nerd, the Ramsey Co courthouse is a deco dream 😅😅
Rich people really do be crazy. Even just having an advanced directive so people know what to do if you die is so important (Caitlin Doughty has done videos about it) but man....scrambling to handle assets and property without legal guidance. I am sweating and uncomfy just thinking about it. plan your stuff, folks.
Ooohhh wee Ana Nicole was just an absolute mess! Good job making wills interesting 😊
This was so cool and interesting. I can remember all of Anna Nicole's hoopla. I can remember during the 2nd trial reporters were questioning if she purchased new clothes for this.
I appreciate your integrity keeping Anna’s name out of the title.
I'd love to know more about what really happens when people leave their assets to their pets? How does that work?
It's typically put in a trust just like for a kid! And then the executor of the trust invests the money wisely and gives payouts to the caregiver and for all the pet's expenses as they arise
The most shocking thing in this video is the photographic evidence that Larry Birkhead has had the same hairstyle since the early 2000’s.
LOLLLL
Ok Anna Nicole knew EXACTLY what she was doing with that old ass man! She should have gotten nothing.
Love this style of video Leeja!! Those quotes from the judge had me cackling, so funny
I didn't even know who she was. I don't understand how that can be considered fat. She looked more attractive early 2000s photos then the previous ones in my opinion.
My new career goal is to become the guardian of a rich dog.
That was the smartest, funniest and most inciteful intro ever on TH-cam. I love you.
I took a property class my first semester of law school and the rule against perpetuities is the bane of my existence
What about entails on properties? Did that stop in the US? It was a big part of the plot of Pride and Prejudice because the main characters couldn't inherit their fathers property because it was entailed to the male line.
Downton Abbey also
To be clear, Houdini hated séances and psychics. If he had that agreement with his wife, it would have been to disprove the séance.
Did Kurt Vonnegut say that the same people to don't know what to get you for father's day know exactly what you want when you die.
A will is good but my father made his girlfriend the executor of his will. I'm still waiting.
(Note, this stupidity is common)
Thanks for reminding me. I really gotta move my will out of my Notes app and into the hands of a lawyer. 🙈
It came really as surprise when you told Anna Nicole was called fat.
Dem curves are not fat
Oh. My god. That poor judge.
We the people need to find faster ways for rich people to become funny in death.
The portrayal of the character based on Leona Helmsley on the show Central Park on Apple TV is pretty epic
The more I learn about Ben Franklin, the more I realize how much he'd love gen z culture
They broke the judge.
Damn that Probate Judge was not having it anymore. That case is the same age as me👀
Thank you for this!
A 20 year law battle. That seems like it cost more than I’ll ever know
Holy cow. That Anna Nicole Smith will was just like Bleak House. Astonishing.
great video!
This was brilliant thank you
I love how I’m just listening to this in the background at work and I hear that Anna Nicole Smith died in the city I was born (Hollywood, FL). Important to exactly nobody but now I can say I feel heard
Hey Leeja ,apropo carbon footprint ( which is the ultimate greenwashing in my opinion) , will you have a chance in the future to dive into the law’s pov on environmental cases ?
Another great breakdown!!! You da G.O.A.T.
