The Trial of Kyle Bosman

My favorite moments from this trial. 5:52 - Bloodworth approaches the stand. 8:45 - Brief recess 10:06 - Definition of "new" 11:18 - "No one among us despises Kyle Bosman more than me" 13:38 - The pizzaman reveals himself 13:55 - OBJECTION! 15:56 - Damiani pleads insanity 27:09 - Bosman's smear campaign 28:15 - Bosman is out for Blood 31:24 - Huber calls Bosman to the witness stand for one final question 39:40 - Verdict 41:01 - Huber's final plot twist 43:41 - ANYWHERE, ANYTIME. MONEY IN THE BANK

[@scorpioedc7979]

Brief recess is the best.

[@tommyleelynn]

Scorpio Edc Brandon's face at that moment is so jolly

[@bobd5866]

This video has more twists than an episode of WWE television.

[@TinyPrinceGames]

This was amazing, so much better than an actual playthrough would have been. Can't believe people were so upset when we get amazing things like this trial out of it, hope people who childishly dropped funding stop taking it so seriously and come back.

[@Biddybalboa]

Anyone who would leave over that didn't belong here.

[@andrethyst905]

I mean, I was disappointed at not seeing the playthrough because it would have been fun to listen to Kyle's grievances about the game as there would have been more time for him to elaborate. This is certainly a really fun result of it though, and people talking about pulling funding are frankly being ridiculous.

[@Jambobist]

Couldn't agree more, can't hurt to clean house once in awhile. And I really don't want them back to be honest.

Brother.

[@edwinleskin6063]

WOW, TOP SHIT. DON. SERIOUS ISSUES. BETS. THIS IS REAL AS FUCK. I SENT KYLE A SALTY TWEET. I HAVE BEEN TEAM BOSSY FOREVER, UNTIL HE DIDN'T DO THE BET PROPERLY AGAIN. HUBER FOR LIFE I'LL NEVER GO BACK.

Calm down with the tribal instincts, this is just for fun.

"Sophie! Order!" - that was me losing it right there.

[@jamesyoung2386]

Gotta say, even though I was saddened to not see Bosman play through A Link to the Past. I have to say I was on the side Kyle beat the system & got away with it clean. But when Blood came to the bench (sofa) with the Covenant of Good Faith & Fair Dealing, I do believe that it put Kyle in breach of contract. A shame we won't get to see him play through it. I think Ben summed up my feelings exactly regarding this.

[@maxvsthegames]

Yeah, same here. Blood and his Covenant of Good Faith is the on that changed my mind on the verdict as well.

[@Kentama]

Good lord, first time watching this, but Bloodworth taking the stand.... sheer evisceration.

[@SeaToSkyImages]

This may be one of the most ridiculously wonderful things I've ever watched.

[@bretbret8293]

You guys crack me up. This is so good. Also, where can I get an EZ A hat?

Cool. I just picked up a shirt and a hat. Keep up the good work guys.

Every time Don stars speaking, I turn up the volume.

[@timeeee9191]

yeah it gets tricky when Don and Huber talk to eachother

[@yieldofblood]

Kyle Bosman is heroic for what he did. He may be guilty of welching, but he welched so masterfully that we all got priceless bonus entertainment out of the whole mess. Kyle Bosman is certainly a diabolical mastermind, and he's the hero we need.

[@jus1029ph]

41:22 Brandon's reaction is priceless!

[@christianeddins]

This was the start of the ultima Brad era.

[@Kenshito]

This is great and I couldn't stop smiling all the way through. People getting legitimately angry because of Kyle's trolling and even wanting to retire funding was so dumb to me, like all the great content these guys deliver isn't worth it. Thanks for everything EZA, today you have won a new Patreon.

That was a roller coaster ride of a trial....

[@sbgwieser2208]

Kyle destroyed everybody as always

[@KenjiKussano]

me too!

[@Jambobist]

Only court in the land that would have convicted Kyle was the court of public opinion. Kyle won that trial, the jury voted with their hearts, not their heads.

[@Biddybalboa]

Actually Kyle destroyed blood "It's a matter of interpretation" bloodworth said, nullifying his argument.

[@FirmlyGrasp_IT]

still one of the greatest videos on the internet

[@BasedVidya]

So guilty. Glad justice was served. Not glad that he has no punishment. Should have been forced to silently watch in the corner with a "GUILTY" hat on.

[@BasedVidya]

No wait. Got a better one. Bosman wearing a t-shirt with the words "LINK TO THE PAST IS MY FAVORITE GAME" painted on it and then walking down a busy street (or convention center) while the rest of the crew shout "Shame!" over and over. Huber gets the bell of course.

[@phantomofvanitas]

+BasedVidya He would just wear a hoodie over the shirt or go with it, pull on his shirt and say "Yes...the game IS a shame! Shame on this game!"

[@NotAurichu]

+PhantomOfVanitas knowing how sly bossman can be, i can see that coming lol

[@Banditolore]

7 years later and this is still good to watch.

[@TheSSJSnoop]

Same here in 2022 😆

[@quagthias]

This was even better than I imagined. Fantastic show, everyone. I still think Jones made the best argument - the Allies are meant to be entertaining. Are you not entertained? Kyle purposely misinterpreted the contract, but he did it to make us laugh, to give us drama, to give us entertainment - not having to play a game he doesn't care for was just an extra bonus and not the main intent.

[@Hesperus84]

Thank you EZA for being the best in the biz and so entertaining LOL I literally cried from laughter.

[@gtodorov]

everyone trying to hold the laugh for 45 minutes is the best part of this I can't believe people from the "community" decided to take this serious (which is insane) instead of just have fun like the rest of us :)

"Sophie! Order!" that was hilarious. Everyone in this video is a genius... Long live the Allies!

[@zodiac909]

OBJECTION! WHAT IS THE WITNESS' BACKGROUND WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL WELLBEING?! #PraiseNomura Best gaming crew ever. Love n Respect.

[@Jambobist]

The jury voted with their hearts, Kyle won that damn trial.

[@phantomofvanitas]

+JazGalaxy How is it not relevant. There has been multiple bets that Huber has backed down on. Kyle wasn't even trying to back out of the bet. He followed the rules of the contract that was skewed in a way anyway.

[@phantomofvanitas]

+JazGalaxy Agreed. Nonetheless people do this in court cases all the time. There's still a point to it. Why get mad at someone not going about a bet like you want them to when they themselves haven't gone through with bets at all. If anything, even if he was found guilty, bringing this up could soften the blow. Bringing up past allegations may be uncalled for, but not pointless. Also granted that this is Easy Allies and not an actual court. ha. Besides, he did everything that was in the contract. He cleared up the thing about the twitter times. He streamed it. It was a new save slot regardless when it was made or streamed. It was from start to finish, credits don't matter when the actual game is done. Unless credits was mentioned in the contract...

[@phantomofvanitas]

+JazGalaxy yeah. surprised that Huber decided to just off the bet entirely, but they later say it was a good decision since it strips Kyle away from his power to continue to skew the bet/contract. It's funny.

[@Jambobist]

Huber was playing to the gallery in his testimony and offered very little of substance, Blood at least offered one strong argument in that the reasonable interpretation of a contract can be legally binding even if the wording leaves room to maneuver, but his arguments fell apart under cross-examination. Obviously Kyle is a skeevy welcher, but no impartial observer would find him guilty on the basis of the arguments presented in that court/living room.

[@McLort]

You guys are amazing. My wife is staring at me from the livingroom while I am laughing my ass off at this trial. Well done EA crew. Keep it up.

[@aperfectool4453]

I'm watching this again 2 years later, and the anotation "pizza arrived" and that whole situation still makes me laugh really really hard.

[@zim1112]

By far the best EZA video to date. This is like a real life Always Sunny episode.

[@JBF086]

What?????? This is the best thing that the internet has given us!!!!!!!!!!! Is funny how easy allies (and gametrailers in his time) has created like a little lore of themselfs with the bets, and Huber Vs, Bossman. This is EPICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loves how everyone is cracking and cant hold it without laughting.

[@rjcripe]

Huber is trying soo hard not to laugh in the beginning, keeps covering his mouth with his hand and looking away from the camera and everyone else. It's great.

[@TheJWinc]

I'm torn I want to like the video because it was hilarious and funnier that many comedy shows, but the fact Kyle was found guilty is a travesty. The troll is of such epic scale and within the confines of the contract the trail was void even then it was a damn near tied in the vote, have that clear conscious Kyle. This was a stream that had no gameplay and was awesome, keep up the amazing work allies.

[@darksydeernie]

The highest paid group of comedy writers in Hollywood could not come up with something this good.

[@garybeharrie]

can i clap for bloodworth.. really lawyer shit in that one!

[@DrWiley-fm3ik]

Just watched this on the twitch VODS earlier. This was so fantastic. I much prefered watching him weasel out of the bet and then watching this trial than watching a salty playthrough of kyle playing lttp.

[@astonliker]

thre golden age we really didnt know what we had

[@tenorsax120891]

I barely just watched this; sadly I'm very late to the party. However, I was cracking up throughout the entire video. You guys are comedy gold, you all have not ceased to entertain me yet. It seems a lot of people were actually quite upset by Kyle's shenanigans, but I think it was all awesome whether it was scripted or not. Muchos gracias for the entertainment folks.

[@Vilens40]

“I’ll allow it” my favorite EZA moment ever.

[@Cellsplitter]

Huber you didn't even tell Kyle that he had to watch you play it :/ missed opportunity

[@oscmag13]

Ooh, forcing him to watch/join would have been the perfect punishment.

[@tasseiviews2947]

Yes, I would have wanted Kyle to sit along at least for part of the stream and give his comments. Hope Kyle will still do that, even if he doesn't have to.

[@TinnedWaffles]

Huber should wear a mask of Kyles face instead and we can make the stream the number one source for all Kyle Bosmans opinions on his favourite Zelda game of all time :)

[@justasjazauskas1138]

@TinnedWaffles I hope Huber will read your comment! :D

[@thedreamcapture2681]

hes a bloody comedian!!

[@Reuello]

Seriously one of the best easy allies videos ever made! I laughed so hard at Kyle's ruthlessness in the court. He is the ultimate troll and would be an amazing lawyer tbh xD. Great stuff guys keep it up!

[@deadmegatron01]

This will never stop being funny

[@brauliodiaz3925]

lol I thought that was annoying

[@phantomofvanitas]

It was so obvious that Kyle won. Chat and everyone else just want to see Kyle go through a game he doesn't like (like Kyle said at the end). Especially since it's a much loved game, (don't care for it myself). The streams with Kyle were perfect. He knew what he was doing. He followed the contract. Listen to when it's his turn to talk to everyone. He's right about everything. Granted, people are taking this too seriously. It's all in good fun. Haha.

[@Scivarwarlock]

I try to watch this at least twice a year. It's so classic, so fun

[@DSiLemon]

This was such a cool and fun stream, and something that wouldn't roll with GT. I'm so glad the Allies are now patreon backed and free to do whatever they want!

[@brandonwoodward9515]

Almost 7 years later and no one has pointed out that this case should have been dismissed, declared a mistrial, or appealed. There were so many unethical and legal misconduct. Huber lying on the stand. Not finding an impartial jury. Huber consistent outburst while his best friend presided over the case. All of these things are unacceptable. Still, some of the best court room dramas on TV and movies have conduct that would not be allowed. This is now among them. Great watch.

[@ThegreatMizuti777]

There's a lot of technical arguments that can be made one way or the other, but I believe the thing that ultimately breaks Kyle's neck is Blood's first point, the covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The way it looks to me, this applies to "all contracts" as Bloodworth said which nullifies Kyle's point that there are different kinds of contracts or that no money was exchanged. And it's very clear that he was aware of Huber's interpretation and yet did not share his own. Therefore, as Blood said, the interpretation of the ignorant party should be enforced and Kyle violated that interpretation, thus he is indeed in breach of contract. That said, I'm sad Huber took it upon himself to play it instead, there's no punishment whatsoever now... But it was a very entertaining trial regardless of the outcome.

[@scorpioedc7979]

I agree.

[@jasminvomwalde7497]

You're right, the Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing applies to all contracts (even if they not written down), so it would have definitely applied here as well.

[@dalilbaby4238]

I can only imagine breaking Kyle's neck what.

[@smashmonkey6304]

The problem with that interpretation is that there was no contract. In order for a contract to be valid, there has to be consideration for both parties. Contracts also can't exist for contingent events (in this case "if you lose a bet"). Because there was no consideration for Kyle, there was never a contract (void). All someone had to do was Google Void/Voidable Contract

This is still to this day my favorite EZA video. Pure genius!

[@nsignific]

1. stream notifications can be delayed, as admitted to by Twitch themselves. 2. contracts are null and void if intended to harm any party, i.e. forcing discomfort. 3. the save slot in that stream actually fits ALL of those definitions Blood listed and I'm happy to elaborate if anyone is interested. You have no case against Kyle. P.S.: I love Jones!

[@pjstran]

This was enormously entertaining...45 minutes went by in what seemed like 3. Good stuff gents!

[@pirajacinto4]

This trial was legit amazing, and you guys have a new listener right here for your future stuff. Keep up the fun! :D

[@Powerman293]

I loved this whole thing. The trial, the witnesses, the arguments, the verdict, everything. It's too perfect. I was actually surprised Kyle had so much evidence and so many people for him, so good on them for believing in Kyle. I am completely happy with the verdict though. Huber playing through a Link to the Past is way better then what Bosman could have done and was a pretty good twist. But I disagree with people that say Kyle got off scott free. Sure, he got no punishment, but he's still considered guilty. He's now Punished Bosman in the eyes of the world, off to create Outer Heaven.

[@The_RedVIII]

Wish you guys had given 24 hours for people to vote so you could include those like me who due to time zone differences, can't watch your live streams and instead watch them later here on youtube. I'm glad Huber is gonna stream Zelda in place of Kyle and I will definitely watch it. It wouldn't be enjoyable anymore to watch Kyle play A Link to the Past if you have to go through all this to "force" him to play. He just took all the fun out of it for me. Huber team for life!
