Welcome everyone to a long overdue edition of Body Slam Briefs.

I am Jeff, better known as Evil Dose, the Diabolical Attorney and in-residence, in-house counsel

0:18.0

for the Wrestling Soup Network, which pays me tons and tons of money

and other valuable consideration that you can't even possibly imagine.

0:28.6

All right, what are we talking about today?

0:31.6

I haven't really looked into that.

2:02.9

But while the attorney general does, I believe that as long as an attorney general is approved, and one will be, whether it's Pam Bondi or not, I know not, but probably will be,
