There’s a reason the History Channel has produced hundreds of documentaries about Hitler but only a few about Dwight D. Eisenhower. Bad guys (and gals) are eternally fascinating. Behind the Bastards dives in past the Cliffs Notes of the worst humans in history and exposes the bizarre realities of their lives. Listeners will learn about the young adult novels that helped Hitler form his monstrous ideology, the founder of Blackwater’s insane quest to build his own Air Force, the bizarre lives of the sons and daughters of dictators and Saddam Hussein’s side career as a trashy romance novelist.
New episodes Wednesday and Friday with backlog episodes on Saturday until we catch up.

All rise for the honorable Judge Robert Evans!

[@BlaissezFaire9940]

Just Over here not giving out legal advice

Here ye, hear ye

[@iantalmadge]

I hate to say it guys but I'm about as high as Roland so standing is not an option, still I'll give a solid nod to my honorable homie!🫡

Amen

taking shots out of your Grammy is pretty iconic ngl

Surest sign that Cuba is a monster: he's made the leap to Christian movies.

[@seraphinw1]

that'll do it

[@DeliveryMcGee]

Robert and Greazy being old friends reminds me of the time Peter Capaldi went on Craig Ferguson's show and they talked about dropping acid together back in the day when they were in a punk band.

[@cjboyo]

Excuse me Peter Capaldi of Doctor Who fame used to be in a punk band???? That’s awesome

[@DeliveryMcGee]

​@@cjboyo Yeah, he was the singer/guitarist (all of The Doctor's guitar scenes were him actually playing) and former late-night host Ferguson was the drummer.

[@danielmac9498]

Several character arcs on The Boondocks make a lot more sense to me now

[@THEHAR0LD]

The way he held that Grammy in order to drink out of it showed a level of coordination handling an awkward shape that shows that is a well practiced manoeuvre, lol.

[@thejason755]

Honestly, if you have a prestigious award like that and you can take shots out of it: you had better break out that shotglass whenever you can just to flex

[@cjboyo]

If i won a Grammy that would become my exclusive shot taking vessel

[@_NoDrinkTheBleach]

Intoxication has entered the podcast. I don't know that I'm here for it yet. If I had to talk about Diddy crimes for three hours, I'd probably need help, too.

[@LexYeen]

In this case, I think I'm okay with it. I'd need to do the same if I were a guest on this show.

[@TroyConvers5000]

*Looks at Kissinger six parter, laughs*

[@PathOfAvraham]

I think it called for, but I hope Robert and Soph dont normalise it if that makes sense

[@omegafilming]

If Rob and Sophie are reading this, I'm begging you to get Greazy on more often -- this guy's a riot

[@TheNotoriousBTG]

Especially for the Cuba Gooding Jr episode.

[@sharkbelly1169]

Yes please and thank you

[@StelCreator]

Agreed

[@kingcalamity6276]

8:25 I started listening to the podcast yesterday but decided I had to wait for the video because I couldn't continue without seeing that Regis picture, 100% worth the wait

[@vawalters318]

I just have been listening twice 😂

[@milramas]

This series was great, I hope Wil gets invited again soon, the old friends banter is great

[@kevinboyle9784]

It sounds like Robert is talking to his brother or his twin - which is an energy Im not used to.

[@atriaventrica]

It's amazing how much speech patterns and language are shared between Robert and Wil. Just the mutual memetics of life long friends.

[@seancain2216]

Bro, Cuba came into my old restaurant all the time. Dude is...... CREEEEEPY

Well, he is a judge now

[@aajc120]

As a Combs, Robert has my permission to mispronounce my last name when talking about Diddy

[@SoyAngellll]

lol

[@sebastianoleary2743]

If you'd like a better namesake, consider Jeffrey Combs, an actor known for his various roles across the Star Trek franchise.

[@adamplentl5588]

His name is actually Sean Cooms, which is a bit of unrelated irony.

[@michaellear6904]

He is a man who doesn't need a name. He is a ghost of a creature. The world passes through him but nothing actually touches him. Happiness will always allude him. Evil is a stern mistress.

[@misterdoctor9693]

As a Robert my combs have permission to mispronounce my last name

[@johnnykelliher8092]

[@iantalmadge]

The Robert, the sun, and the holy shit what the hell Diddy, I named a kitty after Diddy Kong and now I have to deal with the blow back of yelling Diddy Diddy Diddy out to the world when it's din dins time 😭

[@racheldolfi6533]

[@arekhautaluoma4276]

I can't be the only one that wanted him to shut up lol

[@johnmckiernan2176]

I think you did Diddy dirty when you said his only talent was organising parties. He's really good at organising felonies, too. Rapping and producing? Not so much.

[@calmc9655]

Tbf one could argue that the only difference between a Diddy party and a Diddy felony is the ratio of people having fun.. 🤷

[@johnmckiernan2176]

@@calmc9655 I think Diddy got the wrong idea when he overheard someone saying that "illegal parties are lots of fun." Zoning permits, dude, alcohol licenses and such. Geez.

[@WolfHreda]

I _just_ finished part two and went, "I wonder when part three will be out." I also love how so many people freak out, talking about how sacrilegious the imagery of Nas and Diddy being crucified is. Like, there were maybe three significant dudes that were crucified by the Romans. Do these people have any idea how many thousands of people the Romans crucified? Diddy and Nas being crucified, while certainly a striking image, is no more sacrilegious than being beheaded by a guillotine. Lastly, I can't help but wonder where Diddy's... Uhh... House servant Farnsworth Bentley came into all this.

[@dahuka]

he wasn't even the only guy crucified in that scene

[@thejason755]

Thats honestly a goddamn good question: how much does Farnsworth know?

[@Detton30]

I am so glad I'm watching this on video and not listening to it, so i could see Wil take a shot out of a grammy

[@jaimesfolly]

I enjoyed watching Wil get deeper in the bottle as the show progressed from pt 1 to pt 3

[@bryncheeze8970]

For all the people complaining about Wil, you and your best friend are probably annoying af too. Let people have fun.

[@turboii9086]

Robert quoting the call her daddy podcast was not on my 2024 bingo card.

[@sirhenrymorgan1187]

29:38 not just music, that's any industry! Film, gaming, retail, food service, etc. How many bosses expect you to always be at 110% percent? How many employers blatantly demand more than is reasonable of the average employee? Everything is so insidious these days, there is no such thing as ethical consumption...

[@nancycollins4109]

I used to live down the street from the Justin's in Atlanta from 2004-2008. Every time Diddy or other stars were supposed to be there hundreds of people would show up, and those denied entrance woukd filter down into my apartment complex and break into cars and garages. There was also a 24 hour barber shop up the street from Justin's that was a front for a fence who also ran girls out of the back room.

[@dysmissme7343]

Jeez

[@-user_redacted-]

So wild, him and Sophie no longer being disembodied voices

[@orchidrose1410]

I can be honest when I say that it wasn’t until I had a son that my ideas on “mentorship” of young impressionable boys changed. Being a woman and a victim of SA, I obviously don’t trust men with young girls, but I, like many didn’t see anything sus with a teenage boy spending time with an adult man who held “opportunity for success” over that boy, until I had and raised one myself. I didn’t trust anyone with my kid and everyone was a predator! The problem is, that the more time that goes by, between the churches and entertainment industries, it appears my hyper-paranoia will well founded!

[@unholycephalopod3019]

what a good one, and great guest too!

[@MissusSnarky]

Never truly know a person until you’ve puked with them fr Also, I adore you, Sophie. You freakin rock, and I hope you know it 💅

Robert! Shadowrun taught us that DMSO helps get drugs through the skin!

[@RaunienTheFirst]

I learned that from a Dead Kennedys song

[@trumpeterjen]

With everything we've learned so far about Diddy, I half-expected the reveal of his new name "Brother Love" to foreshadow *another* horrifying tendency of his.

[@bfish89ryuhayabusa]

Don't worry editor, it's not passive voice! It's exonerative voice.

So many of the Puffy moments you covered here were made fun of by the Boondocks. I never noticed a lot of it until now but man, Aaron McGruder must have really hated that man way before everyone else 😂😂😂

[@bengarver8155]

To think in a podcast about Diddy, Cuba Jr. is possibly the bigger monster in the room.

[@charliebrown1796]

Big fan of the podcast. That said… The way Robert and Will talk about the assault of women by Diddy vs the assault of a man by Cuba Gooding Jr is such a stark contrast. They are so matter of fact when discussing the assault of a woman, and became so heated when discussing what Cuba Gooding Jr did. I just really wish men could muster that same visceral outrage when it comes to women being violated. Not just in a “yes that is objectively terrible and disturbing” kind of way, but in a way that shows real stomach churning disgust, and genuine empathy, like they can actually imagine what it must feel like to have that happen to you.

[@_mycotroph]

I think your guest started getting a little drunk around 18:30 😂

To the Honorable Robert ? Evans, Wil (one l) seems to have talked so much in these episodes they could have made it a series 😅. I would have listened to the entirety of a long form episode on this topic.

[@TheYasmineFlower]

What's kind of hilarious is that reportedly, Diddy's cellmate is Sam Bankman-Fried. You don't know who to feel sorry for in that situation.

[@Gloomdrake]

That doesn’t sound right. What’s the source?

​@Gloomdrake they aren't in the same cell but they are in the same unit. "A judge denied his [Combs] request to be released on bond, placing the disgraced celebrity in the same shared prison dormitory as Bankman-Fried-an inmate of the Brooklyn institute since August 2023" - Yahoo Finance

I actually thought about Cuba Gooding Jr. a while back, wondering what had happened to him. He was in so much when I was a kid but I figured he had went the same way as Taylor Kitch or Sam Worthington where their carreers kind of burn out after a while. That´s Hollywood, it happens. I had no idea he did a bunch of bad stuff.
