Sup, you beautiful bastards. Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco Show.

0:03.6

I hope you'd have fantastic Thanksgiving and weekend with friends and or family.

0:07.2

And if not, I hope it just wasn't at least god-awful.

0:09.7

But I'm back from break. There's a lot of news to talk about. So buckle up, hit that like button and let's just jump into us.

0:15.3

Starting with an established title situation. If you're not familiar, then known for offering this kind of last minute, fun gag gift where the company says you get to be titled Lord or Lady by buying a square foot of land

0:24.3

in Scotland. But over the break on November 23rd, a YouTube creator by the name of Scott Schaefer

0:28.2

put out a video saying this is a scam, also casting doubt on a number of things, including like

0:32.4

do they actually donate money to plant trees like they say they do, which is a big aspect of the push. With this, him creating a list of it seems like a hundred big creators who have taken sponsorships

0:39.7

with the company in the past. And a list seemed to have fucking everybody. Like you had Ben Shapiro,

1:06.1

unfounded attack based on bogus claims from someone making a career out of personal attacks

1:10.4

in an attempt

1:10.8

to gain viewership and calling this a cruel and vicious attempt to cancel and slander us.

1:15.1

Which I will say that language is interesting because slander is a legal term.

1:18.2

So I don't know if they're involving legal and there's going to be a lawsuit.

1:20.9

We're going to have to wait to see what's happening there.

1:22.6

But here's what I'll say.

1:23.6

As far as how we're reacting to this news, I do not feel comfortable being within miles of whatever the fuck this situation is. So immediately, behind the scenes, we cut off future
