Summary
One of the first lawsuits we wanted to cover when we started the podcast was Jim Bellino's lawsuit against Heather McDonald, Shannon Storms Beador, and Tamra Judge for what he claims were defamatory statements at a live-recording of the Juicy Scoop podcast. Researching and recording this did not disappoint. We uncovered details of an FBI sting Bellino was involved in, explain our fears of trampoline parks, detail the elements of defamation suits as well as defending against them using California's anti-slapp laws, and more!

| 0:35.9 | We are today discussing the lawsuit that Jim Bellino filed against Heather McDonald, |
| 0:43.4 | Tamara Judge, and Shannon Storms. So excited. |
| 0:48.0 | For those who do not know who Jim Bellino is, Jim Bellino was house husband of Alexis Bellino. |
| 0:56.2 | He, I think, was like the first awful Jim that we got on Real Housewives franchise, |
| 1:03.1 | like the first of many bad Jims. He had a really traditional view of how marriage was supposed to be. |

| 1:16.7 | Christian. She was like my role is to take care of him, and he totally accepted that. It was, |

| 1:29.0 | ended up divorcing in 2018. And I've never considered looking him up for any reason. I just, |
