As a young thug listener, and as an Emily D Baker listener, I would absolutely love more updates from this case!!!!

[@nowwhat1434]

Me too!!

[@MrJacobrabbit]

They played his lyrics today

[@annm9589]

I’m glad you are covering this. Opening statements were spicy, prosecution seemed ill prepared. Glad cameras were not thrown out despite pan of jurors.

[@clarem8784]

How can we suggest a case to cover?

[@kestrelstargazer9545]

I would love to see periodic check ins for this case.

[@thelostchicagogirl]

Same!

[@BeautyBarbie011]

Same!!!

[@a.k.emerson424]

Same!

[@mcd22630]

Wait till you see what happened this past week (6-10-24) the trial and the judge seem to have completely off the rails, in my opinion.

[@diesiraeprototus]

Emily! We definitely need *some* continuous RICO YSL coverage. Not daily live trial coverage but it definitely will get wild on certain days and will need recaps.

[@jnyt81]

So glad you’re looking at this Emily, the prosecution have been horrendously inefficient, I’m shocked

[@THEDubbleHelixx]

The defense opening statements have been wild, too.

[@AltaMay11]

​@@THEDubbleHelixxthe 1 defense lawyer who's arguing - yes my client does illegal things but he does it for personal gain only not for a group or gang 💁🏽‍♀️and the other defense attorney who said her client was just added in as a distraction and to bring popcorn and enjoy the show 😲

[@mikusheadphones]

​@AltaMay11 that's an entirely fair argument though. He's being honest that he does illegal things and that he should be I I kissed for his INDIVIDUAL acts, not under a fucking RICO case.

[@AltaMay11]

@@mikusheadphones I agree when they said that I was 🤔 I wonder how they're gonna prove what he did wasn't for himself...

[@patricejoyner5654]

This trial has me clutching my pearls 😂😂 I mean the prosecution is so reckless and they are literally just throwing 💩at the wall to see if it’ll stick I’m no lawyer but I wouldn’t hire the state prosecutor to save my life 😂😂😂😂😂

[@thenextpersonontheright]

I would be interested in periodic updates on this case. Especially as it is going to be a long and comolex one.

[@venicev1618]

This trial is so wild it’s become reality TV

[@BreannaDrummond]

not the defense attorney literally explaining the bleach anime 😭😭😭😭

[@mxnjones]

But…where was the lie?

[@JoB1019]

Yes, please. I'd like to see and hear more about this trial.

[@deirdrecorey3876]

There's so many things that they can bring up on appeal IF he gets convicted.

[@TheEmilyDBaker]

And this trial has barely started. It’s wild.

[@jodykyles5583]

But the jury isn't able to see or hear about most of the prosecutorial misconduct! I sure wish they could. I watch this trial everyday, have since the beginning. And it is in fact a real circus.

[@yesitschelle]

They get it. Defense objects, jury gets kicked out, jury comes back, judge says "don't listen to that last bit by Prosecution." It happened a lot.

[@thelostchicagogirl]

I have a feeling they will start to see it if they haven't already.

[@ValorWarrior5258]

But, the lack of evidence of the “ criminal gang “ allegations are falling flat. In NONE of the police reports were a gang or gang activity, or even suspected gang activity was ever noted: but they testify in direct that a well known gang called YSL is part of this, until on cross, they admit, there was no mention of anything pertaining to a gang at the time they were involved in the actual incident, and they are asked to identify the person they are testifying about, and look around and see the person is NOT actually a defendant in this trial! Not very good evidence, if I am a juror sitting there.

[@bijougirl12]

I’m here with my popcorn ready to sit back and watch this trial. Let’s go.

[@jessicastuvaints8503]

Please please cover this more! I’ve been dying for your commentary, watching live is not the same without you!!

[@Malisity]

Please cover more of this trial. I find it interesting and you just explain things so well. So please cover this trial, it's really interesting what's happening.

[@fancienanc]

My brother is the attorney for one of the defendants. My brother is sitting at the upfront table listening in these clips. So proud of him! 🍒🍒😊

[@I_am_into_gd]

Prayers to your brother. Congrats to him and all his accomplishments thus far. I wish him a prosperous career.

[@charmTari]

please cover more of this trial would love to hear your views/opinions ❤

[@morganbrooke193]

please keep covering this case!!!

[@toffeesock]

58:21 I loved the anime analogy!! I haven’t seen the Bleach anime series but I understood the point and I thought it was really well argued and if I was on the jury that would have been a very memorable argument for me throughout the trial.

[@zenabkhatun669]

I AM SO FRIGGING GLAD YOU ARE COVERING THIS

[@Jacobhighlight]

Great video covered everything and excellent detail

[@tiffany.Elizabeth.]

I watched Natalie cover the opening statements and she lost her god damn mind with the burden shifting 😂😂

[@thelostchicagogirl]

Did she cover the opening statements? I missed that. I need to go to her page and find it. Especially the part you brought up. lol

[@thelostchicagogirl]

Or maybe I watched some of what she said but not all. Now, I need to go back and watch. lol

[@missc3535]

This whole thing is wild. The anime character argument was definitely unique!

[@klaiyer4819]

Yay looking forward to hanging with Emily&Lawnerds I hope everyone is well, I’m still attempting to decorate my tree that’s been up since Monday(chronic back)I’m hoping I’ve made some progress by the time premiere starts(not holding my breath😂)but I’ll be ready with my cuppa Rosie-Leigh either way 💜 X

[@eleanorlaurent2303]

This episode is a fabulous example of why I love you Emily. You did an amazing job of taking a really complicated case with really complicated law and making it understandable (to me anyway). Thank you 🩷

[@hjl8700]

I spit my coffee out at the Bleach reference. What a time to be alive.

[@maryw1761]

Thank you for covering this Emily. I've only heard bits and pieces and it's been gooood thus far but with you I get all the gravy!! Plus I've been on call all week and have missed your lives so I'm on the replay crew but no complaints here!! God sure knew what he was doing when he made you is all I can say! And not just for all your knowledge...your just a kind caring loving and funny Individual and we are lucky to have you!

[@GiraffeGal1]

Thank you for breaking down the definitions! I’m a little less confused now

[@rileyallen489]

When she said grab some popcorn and watch the circus I screamed.

[@gryffent]

I had never heard of this guy or this gang. I’m not exactly a fan of rap and don’t pay any attention to what’s happening in most of America as I’m 🇨🇦Canadian. Having said that, to see the prosecution failing to turn over ,materials that the court had ordered and watching her attempt to shift the burden to the defense was appalling! The judge was more than a little displeased and if it has carried on, then the prosecution are going to blow this case.

[@snoozygirl468]

Yes please for more coverage of this bizarre and fascinating trial.

[@rhondaduff800]

This is fantastic. Please keep updating.

[@denisem5524]

Thank you for your coverage on this case.

Hi Emily! Please cover the Adelsons! It’s fascinating!!!!!!

[@AmyOfEarth]

Please cover this case!! Fascinating case and you are the best! More please

[@kennacurry1041]

I want to see ALL of this trial! OMG, wild stuff

[@AndieO]

Missed the premier but here for the story.

[@evanescentlili]

Freezing cold as I sit in my livingroom cause I opened the window for a bit of fresh air, and forgot to close it at 530am. Flat mate closed it 5 hours later... Is it possible to drink coffee before waking up? Lol

[@GmAjb58]

😂

[@Allie.Winters]

I don't personally need daily coverage of this trial but I really appreciate this summary of a bunch of stuff and would like more summaries going forward.

[@user-yd2jb8xo9k]

yes I hope you continue to cover this case

[@just_deedee]

I would love to see some live court coverage, that would be great!😊

[@artsybatsy]

This case is so fascinating!! Would definitely want to see updates or occasional check-ins!!

[@KarmaZeusBoi]

Definitely follow this trial please. The level of unprofessional behavior by the judge and prosecutor needs to be dissected at length

[@Adele_too]

Yes, please continue to cover key points of this case. You are thee best 🎉

[@crystalfrowein]

I'd love some check ins and recaps of this trial. I got plenty of popcorn for this spicy circus! 🍿

I would love for you to cover at least some of this case!

[@Honeysunshine70]

Please keep covering this Emily I think this is very interesting and hilarious 😂

[@TheMariana0295]

Hi Emily! I'm looking for a little bit of commentary on the judge holding Mr.Steel in contempt. I haven't found any of your coverage on this. Will you be doing any?

[@mxnjones]

This trial is bananas! I’ve watched Natalie Lawyer Chick’s coverage here and there, but there was a lot I was unclear on…this helps immensely. Please check in on this one periodically? The lawyer with the anime argument is kinda brilliant…where was the lie?

[@StarCulture3]

Please cover as much of this trial as you’re willing to!!!

[@MinniMintz]

Please do more coverage of this! Beyond the entertainment value, I know some folks who live in that area. Very interested to see what comes out in the trial.

[@franziphia2380]

Just catching up on the podcast, this sounds fantastically entertaining... 🍿🍿Yes it still sounds complicated but also: Please more coverage!

[@jessicap911]

Yes please check in on this trial periodically! I’m interested in this one, but it’s hard without the lawyer input/commentary! 😊

[@lyndachele]

There's always one person who has to ruin it for everyone. 😢

[@ignoreme1269]

Hi Emily please cover more of this trial!!!😅😅😅

[@Spicygirlie4]

I am so excited to catch this live. Hello from a snow covered Dartmouth Nova Scotia

[@HannaMathis]

I’d love to follow your coverage on this

[@AbbeyHNormal]

Definitely want updates in this case. Not sure I’m personally up to live streaming it…😊

[@jillprince9647]

Gosh my bingo card needs an update.

[@Vexx_TT]

I wana see it! this is gonna be some wild times.

[@EdgyEspresso]

Georgia courts are wild. Absolutely wild.

[@lost_in_a_crowd_of_3257]

wow! love having some spice sprinkled on my popcorn.

[@alexisisis1]

Yes! More coverage of this bonkers stuff please

[@tonyadavis2691]

Please continue to cover this trial.

[@yam1desu]

I love your coverage of *everything* but with your time constraints I would love just highlights of key days of the trial please. Thank you!

[@aliciaparish9472]

Yes, EDB, I would love your coverage on this YSL case. 💜✨

[@SimplyJustBecca]

Please please please cover this. I’m a teacher and my students ask me about court cases. I used the YNW Melly case to teach the bill of rights to a student who otherwise didn’t give a crap about school and that same student asked me about this trial last week.

[@natashiabrown9261]

Hi, I’m a fan of your show and would like more coverage on this case. Thank you.

[@ArtystaLuLu]

I would like to see more coverage of this trial. If possible…

[@dagneytaggart7707]

It is legally interesting, and looks like it will be an entertaining hot mess. 🍿

[@ArtystaLuLu]

I agree. I have never witnessed a trial with so many co-defendants/council! @@dagneytaggart7707

[@patricejoyner5654]

Yes I found you I’m so sick of this algorithm crap🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤣🤣 I always tune in when I want to know the REAL REAL 💜💜💜

[@CYNOLA0809]

I would never have guessed that Bleach would be referenced in a court case 😂

[@Lainers2000]

I am not a "law nerd", however I find your explanation of the law fascinating.

[@nanders4089]

I would love updates on this case.

[@professionalkoalacuddler]

I wish there was a video of Emily prosecutin'!

[@AmberAHue82]

I really enjoyer this glimpse in. None of the other coverage I've seen went into how wild the prosecution was. I thought it was just a circus because of the nature of the defendants and RICO in general. That burden shifting was appalling!

[@Inncomendatus]

Never heard of him/any of this, however I am happy to watch anything you choose to cover. Your energy is infectious.

[@guwopman3503]

You should check out some of his music. He’s been very influential in Hip Hop/music/pop culture in general for the last decade. I will admit, I’m a big fan and have been for a long time, so I’m probably used to the weirdness of his sound. If you’re interested, I’d say check out his songs: “RiRi”, “Feel It”, “Harambe”, “Dome”, “Tomorrow Till Infinity” Also, the dress he wears on his “Jeffery” album cover is insanely cool

[@guwopman3503]

Oh and “Ski” is also a really fun song

[@annswann1941]

I understand the Idaho sound system using potato 🥔 but Georgia? Wouldn’t that be peanut 🥜? 🤣

[@patithomas1614]

Enjoy lawyer spicyness 😂

[@grapejuicebri]

I’m so here for this

[@SpinningaYarn229]

Yay catching a live 😊

[@alternateuniverse422]

Next week my oldest is graduating college on my youngest's 18th birthday and it's f*cking with every emotion I have, but listening to you honestly always makes me feel calmer. Thanks as always for being such a bright spot in so many lives. P.S. not to be excessively petty but I just read that Britney's dad got an infection in his leg and it had to be amputated.
