| 0:00.0 | So you beautiful bastards. Hope you've been a fantastic Thursday. Welcome back to the Philip |
| 0:03.8 | DeFranco Show and let's just jump into it. And the first thing we're gonna talk about today |
| 0:07.2 | is an announcement. I mentioned this briefly on Twitter, but I know that a lot more people |
| 0:10.7 | follow me here. This is the last show this week and next week the Philip DeFranco show is on hiatus. |
| 0:14.4 | There'll still be a Tuesday and Thursday deep dive so you're not completely in the dark. But yeah, I'm gonna be taking the week off to celebrate my wife and my young son's birthdays. It's also kind of perfect timing because I've been burning myself out with, you know, |
| 0:24.1 | in addition to the show, we've been doing a lot, a lot, a lot behind the scenes for like our big launches. |
| 0:28.6 | Yeah, I'll have that time to reset, but I wanted to give you advance notice so you weren't like, |
| 0:31.2 | what the hell's happening? Also, I'm gonna use this moment to promote and shout something out. Of course in the past I've talked about one of the next big pushes is for us to launch our own website, which will be roguerocket.com. There's just been a |
| 0:40.1 | placeholder there for the longest time. The site's almost there. If you've ever made a website, |
| 0:43.2 | you know when you fix a bug, then sometimes another one pops up, get unexpected delays. But also |
| 0:47.4 | part of our strategy moving forward is to put news in every possible place. Which is why today, if you want news that we cover in a show in a different format, as well as a bunch of other stories, I highly recommend you follow The Rogue Rocket on |
| 0:57.4 | Instagram. We're putting our first test posts out today, but, you know, I've had this team |
| 1:01.1 | doing this essentially for three, four months in anticipation of launching the website. |
| 1:05.3 | Why not also do it there so it's easier to consume and also to share. So yeah, be sure to follow us there today and turn on notifications there if you want. Then we have two kind of quickies. One is trouble for celebrity attorney Michael Avanotti. He, as you might remember, is already facing charges of extortion and fraud in New York and L.A. And now he has also been indicted on 36 counts. Reportedly this is for fraud, perjury, tax evasion, embezzlement, and other financial crimes. |
| 1:28.3 | According to Axios, the indictment alleges that Avanotti stole millions of dollars from five clients. |
| 1:32.3 | This including a mentally ill paraplegic, and that he hid the money through an assortment of shell companies and bank accounts. |
| 1:38.3 | Adding at the same time, Avanetti allegedly owed the government in millions of bank taxes while his law firm was just weeks from bankruptcy. And according to the LA Times, if we were to be convicted on all 36 charges, he would face up to |
| 1:49.1 | 335 years in prison. Remember, that's without even the extortion and fraud charges in New York |
| 1:54.5 | and L.A. So that's going to be fascinating to watch. And the other quickie that of people talking |
| 1:58.2 | is we had Logan Paul in the news, because if you't know he has a podcast in the past there's been controversy and backlash around certain things that he said |
| 2:04.6 | But this time he received some backlash but also support for someone he had on his show and that person was Alex Jones who of course famously has been banned from several social media platforms and I'm only including this as a quickie because it's kind of a story that we've seen, but on a generally smaller scale. |
| 2:18.3 | Right, there was a lot of praise and backlash when Joe Rogan had Alex Jones on the show. |
