  • Sex Crime Defense Attorney Bruce Rivers vs. Andrew Tate (Part 3 of Tate Case Update)
    Mar 13 2023

    Viewer discretion is advised.  Full length episode with Raiderlance.  Recorded on February 28, 2023. 

     

    If you haven’t seen part 1 & 2 go check them out first.

     

    CORRECTION: Raiderlance did not work out in a gym with a former Mr. Olympia.  The gentleman Raider referred to was a former Mr. America.

     

    CORRECTION TWO:  The defense attorney in the movie Seven was Eli Gloud.  Not Ellie.  Sorry I’ve had been binge watching the Last of Us.

     

    There are three parts to this episode.  A discussion about the mindset of a defense attorney.  Then a discussion about Bruce Rivers reactions to the What’s App transcripts in the Andrew Tate case.  Lastly Raider channels his inner Bill Burr toward the end and goes on a rant about Bruce Rivers. 

     

    Make sure to check out this podcast on Youtube where we will post links to all the articles or videos Raider cites during the conversation.

  • Andrew Tate Case Update: An Attorney’s Perspective (Part 1)
    Feb 25 2023
    Viewer discretion is advised.  Full length episode with Raiderlance.  Recorded on February 20, 2023.    Sorry it took us so long to get out this extensive update to the Andrew Tate case.  Below you will find timelines, topics that will be covered in Part 1, and citations to all the articles and videos mentioned.   Make sure to tune in to Part 2!  Also if you missed our previous episodes on Andrew Tate check out our playlist important conversations.   Make sure to check out this podcast on Youtube where we will post links to all the articles or videos Raider cites during the conversation.      CASE TIMELINE: Forbes article as of February 21st, 2023. https://www.forbes.com/sites/conormurray/2023/02/01/andrew-tate-again-appeals-romanian-detention-his-human-trafficking-charges-explained-and-a-timeline-of-the-social-media-stars-controversies/?sh=4fabbefe4e6e   April 2022 – Romanian authorities launched an investigation into Tate and his brother Tristan and reportedly raided Tate’s Romania home, where he was allegedly holding two women captive, after being tipped off by the U.S. Embassy that an American citizen was being held against their will.  On December 29, 2022 – Tate, his brother, and two Romanian women (Georgiana Naghel and Luana Radu aka Tate’s Angels or lieutenants), were detained by Romanian authorities for a 24-hour period on human trafficking charges with six victims identified — one suspect was also charged with rape. The suspect for that charge remained unnamed because local laws prevented authorities from naming the suspect.  On December 30, 2022 – A Romanian judge approved prosecutors’ request to extend the detention to 30 days — Tate and the other suspects appealed the ruling. (30-day preventive detention)  On January 4, 2023 – The Romanian authorities began seizing the Tate brother’s property (will go more into that later)  January 10, 2023 – The Bucharest court to appeal denied the Tate brothers and the two Romanian women appeal against their 30-day detention. (Preventive detention appeal denied)  On January 20, 2023 – The Tate brother’s detention was extended for another 30 days until February 27 allowing the prosecutors to continue their investigation into human trafficking and organized crime allegations. (Now 1st 30-day preventive detention extension).  We will later discuss what the judge took into account when making their decision to extend the detention.   Sometime in late January 2023 – The Tate brothers hired Tina Glandian a prominent American criminal defense attorney. More on her later.  In the morning of February 1, 2023 – Tina Glandian held a press conference to introduce herself as representing the Tate brothers alongside their current Romanian legal defense team. Then later that night she made an appearance on the Piers Morgan show.  Later that day February 1, 2023 – The Tate brothers and the two Romanian women appealed the first 30-day detention extension. The four argued the extended detention is “not necessary” — but the court rejected their appeal and upheld their detention until February 27.  (1st 30-day preventive detention extension appeal got denied)  On February 21, 2023 – the Bucharest Tribunal granted the prosecutors’ plea to keep the Tate Brothers in custody for an additional 30 days. (This would be the second extension of their preventive detention so looking at 90 days now).  However, Georgiana and Luana aka Tate’s Angels or lieutenants were granted bail and would be placed under house arrest.  (Now 2nd 30-day preventive detention extension).    TOPICS to be discussed in Part 1 of this update & CITATIONS:   Old news that I missed from January 4, 2023: An article from the International Business Times. Interview of Lisa a Ukrainian female war refugee. She has known the Tate’s for 3 years and lived in one of the properties raided on 12-29-22.https://www.ibtimes.com/ukrainian-refugee-found-andrew-tates-property-defends-him-against-human-trafficking-allegations-3653276   Old news that I missed from January 10, 2023: New York Post article DIICOT requested the first 30-day extension to the detention of the four in custody. Judge granted the extension and a document has been released showing Judge’s reasoning.https://nypost.com/2023/01/10/andrew-tate-due-in-romanian-court-to-appeal-detention/   January 12, 2023: Daily Mail article Beatrice & Jasmina interviewed. Allegedly named as 2 of the 6 victims.  They repeatedly defend the Tate brothers.https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11628023/Two-women-claim-prosecutors-list-six-Andrew-Tate-victims-say-never-abused.html Video snippet of the interview:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgrFjrwCvS4   January 18, 2023: Lisa releases first video defending the Tates. https://youtu.be/llBcpcL5fAE   Late January 2023: Lisa releases second video defending the Tates https://youtu.be/0yhF9I8Qc3Y   Late January 2023: The Tates hire US attorney Tina ...

  • The Last of Us (Episode 4 Review)
    Feb 17 2023

    Viewer discretion is advised.  Rapid-Fire episode with Fighter2Wizard5 & Raiderlance.  Recorded on February 8, 2023. 

     

    The guys review the Last of Us Episode 4 by asking three questions:

    • What did we like about the show?
    • What didn’t we like about the show? and
    • Who do we think it’s important to us?

     

    The guys discuss Joel & Ellie’s venture in to the Kansas City Quarantine Zone.  Not going to lie, this wasn’t our favorite episode but there is enough here for Raiderlance to find something offensive to say. Enjoy the show!
