  Speaker 2: Gavel Gavel, if your friend promises you her guest house
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: to live in and then says no a week before
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: you're supposed to move in, does she owe you money?
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Judge Millian dips it low. And if you accidentally drop
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: a vase while you're cleaning it and it cuts your hand,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: can you sue the homeowner? Or is the blood on
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: your hands also on yours? Not a judge. No. Maybelline
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: tells us real people. Real cases. Fake justice. This is
• 0:41

  Speaker 1: Welcome to Yoga on the Gobble. Hey, that just faded
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: out really fast, didn't it? It certainly did. It was
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: faster than normal today. Phew! What's this show about, Brad? Oh,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: it's a very simple program, Dan. Every week, you and I,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: we both watch a TV courtroom case. It can be
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: anybody from Judge Judy to Judge Millian to Judge Joe Brown.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: It could be all of them. Right? Judge Joe Brown.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: I watch one. Dan watches a different one. We don't
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: watch each other's cases. We don't watch them. We tell
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: each other about them and we try to guess the verdict.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: And that's the game. That's the game. That's the show.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: And you can play along at home as you're listening in.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Maybe you can try to guess the verdict. And please
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: leave a review on Apple Podcasts. We would love to
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: hear from you. Just like this person did. We don't
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: have one. Nope, we got nothing. Sorry, there's nothing I
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: can do for you. I don't know. I got a
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: short one today. I got a shorty. A pair of teeth? Yes,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: a pair of teeth. Two of them. Two teeth. For
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: the price of one. Maybe it's Maybelline. This is Judge Maybelline,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: who I like. I like Judge Maybelline. I do, too.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Kavari Potter is suing Leah Ollie for $ 1, 000. $ 1, 000. The
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: price of her deductible, which I did last week. Interesting
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: deductible train we're on right now. Everybody's doing deductibles. Yeah.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: You get a deductible. Everybody's doing deductibles. Leah Ollie is
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: countersuing for $ 500 for the price of a vase. A vase.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: which she is, I believe, from Peri. And so she says, oh, waste,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: which is very funny. Anyway, Kavari got hurt in Leah's
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: house while cleaning. Okay. Okay. She had already cleaned all
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: the rooms. She was finishing up the bathroom. When Leah
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: comes by, and asks her to clean a flower vase
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: in the living room before she leaves. Okay? Okay. She
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: goes to pick it up. She has her gloves on.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Gloves on. Leah says, hey, can you clean it without
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: wearing those gloves? Because I don't know if those are
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: the same gloves you were wearing to clean the bathroom. Okay. Okay.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: This is very weird. Gloves off. But doesn't the person
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: wearing the gloves know if those gloves are the same? Yes. Okay,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: then why can't they just make a decision for themselves?
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Because Leah says, yeah, no gloves. Gloves off. So she's
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: cleaning the vase over the sink, and she accidentally drops it.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: She claims that Leah begins to yell at her to
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: clean up the vase quicker. And so she's very nervous.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. We have a woman who's.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Hired someone to clean their house and is standing there
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: watching them clean, giving instructions. And then after something breaks,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: giving instructions on how to clean that up.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Yes. I hate this person. She is. Okay. So I
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: hate him. Uh, yeah. Okay.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: So the worst person you're the word, if you have
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: time to sit around and order your cleaner around, do
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: it your damn self. That's pathetic.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Sorry. Back to you, Brandon. Okay. Um, So she's very nervous. Yeah.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: And she cuts her hand real good. Real good. She
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: claims that Leah began to yell at her further, telling
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: her to get out of her house, which she did.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: She goes to the hospital. She gets into this whole
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: thing where she says that she didn't want to use
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: her medical insurance because she didn't want it to affect
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: her premium. But she did it anyway. Yeah. She claims
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: that this wasn't her fault. She treats me with no humanity.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: She makes me scared. That sounds right. And she makes
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: me sad. Yep. Yeah. So Judge Maybelline asks Leah why
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: she shouldn't have to pay for this injury. Leah says,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: why should I? She's the one who dropped the waist.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: The waist? Judge Maybelline's like, the what? The waist. Oh,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the vase. She's the one who cut herself. She's the
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: one who messed up my house with her blood. She
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: supplies photos showing all the blood that was left behind.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: It's a lot of blood. I don't know. I don't
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: think that this is doing... Her what she thinks it's doing.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Leah says that she thinks that she can come into
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: my house and make a mess with her blood and
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: make me pay for it. I just don't get it.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Judge Maybelline's ready to roll. So rich people are the worst.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Leah should 100% pay the thousands, should not get money
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: for her vase, and should never ever show her face
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: in a courtroom again.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Judge Maybelline says, yeah. She says, let me help you
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: get it. This woman is not your friend. She came
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: to your house to do a job. If she gets
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: hurt on the job in your house while doing that job,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: you should have gone to either your home insurance or...
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: your workers' comp insurance, assuming you have that and are
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: taking care of your employees. Instead, she used her own insurance,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: and you're going to have to pay that deductible. Leah says,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: but what about my vase? My vase. My vase. Judge
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Maybelline says... what about it get a new one leah
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: says so i have to go all the way to
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: italy to get another one she says i don't care
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: where you get it it's not her fault when you
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: bring someone into your house and there isn't uh there
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: you're taking on the inherent risk that something could happen
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: it was an accident get out of here get them
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: judge maybelline get them maybelline just judge uh Mathis would
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: have been like, well, listen, Italian vases are expensive. They
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: are expensive. You dirty poor person should have done a
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: better job. Cavari seems like a very sweet lady. Leah, Ollie,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: she does come across, obviously, she's just not a nice person, right?
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: But I don't think that she has a very thick...
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Italian accent, right? Yeah. And there is this harshness that
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: comes with this broken English that did not do her
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: any favors. Didn't help. Didn't help. She's already mean, but
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: she came across like a movie villain in this case. Dano,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: where are we going now? We're going to Justice for
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: the People with Judge Millian. This is Judge Millian's show
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: after the People's Court, which I gotta be honest, I
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: like better. I like this TV show better than The
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: People's Court. Can I tell you, where does it air?
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Is it on TV or is it a streamer? I
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: don't know. Can I tell you something that I saw
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: yesterday and I meant to check it out today and
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I forgot? There is a new Judge Judy show. Before
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: you stop, stop. Before stop, stop. No. And it looks
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: like it's Hot Bench, but it's not like I see
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Hot Bench Lady on there. What's Hot Bench Lady's name?
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Not Judge Faith. Ms. Bench. Yeah. I don't know. There's
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: that white lady with the blonde hair. Yes, Perez. Yes, Perez. Okay,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: so Perez is in the picture along with some other judges,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: and apparently they watch some sort of surveillance footage and
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: give legal feedback on it. So that's not really a gavel. No,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: it's not, but I wanted to look at it. Cool.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Maybe we can watch it together sometime. Cool. Maybe we
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: can watch it together sometime. Yeah, when we finish Private Ryan. Yeah.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: It's been a month. This is ridiculous. Sorry, go ahead.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: I like this show better. You don't have the dude
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: out there doing the interviews with the people on the street.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: The TMZ guy? It feels like there's a lot of
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: bells and whistles to people's court. Did you know that's
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: a TMZ guy? I did not know that. But those
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: bells and whistles were maybe cool 25 years ago. They're
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: just not cool now.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Kathy Manfred is suing Marcia Stevens for $ 640. This is
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: for the cost of storage. That's important that you know
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: that brand. Kathy Manfred suing Marcia Stevens, $ 640 cost of storage.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: Kathy begins. Your Honor, I've known Marcia for 10 years.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: We were ride and die friends. She messed that up.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: She messes up several phrases in this particular court case.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: You're not ride and die.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: You're ride or die. You know what? They rode and
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: they doed. They ride and die. I think ride and
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: die actually is more effective because with you, I would
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: ride with you and I would die with you.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: It's not an either or. Ride and die implies you're
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: going to do both. Ride or die is like we're
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: going to ride and if we die trying, that's fine.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: But one or the other is going to happen. We
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: can't ride if we're dead. So we ride or die.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: We ride or die. And then we die. It's like,
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: what's that? Not Laverne and Shirley. That's so stupid. Selma
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: and Louise.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Okay. They ride and then they die. Yeah.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: You get it. Yes.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Maybe we've been wrong this whole time. Ride and die.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: And Kathy's been right. It's a ride and die. That's
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: exactly right. She's like, Your Honor, we're on the praise
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: and worship team in church. Lord, I lift your name
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: on high. Come on, everybody. Get those hands up. Lord,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I love to sing your praises. I'm so glad. I'm

  Speaker 1: so glad you're in my life. Glad you came to
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: save us. I'm so glad you came to save us.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: You came from heaven to earth to show the way.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: From the cross to the grave, from the grave to
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: the sky.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Lord, I lift a name on high. Oh, you raised
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: the roof. I raised the roof. You went back to, okay.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: That's the difference. Yeah, that's the difference. Go ahead. Different churches,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: different churches. Different churches, different churches. Ride and die. Okay.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Uh, she, you know, I thought we were right, right.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: And I friends, but she dropped me when I really
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: needed her. My husband was really sick and his, my
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: husband is really sick and his health is declining. And
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: I had to, uh, there was a healthcare facility he
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: had to go to in Santa Barbara. I lived in
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles. There was a two hour commute one way. Uh,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: we suffered a pretty great financial hardship. I asked if
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: she could help me out for about six months while
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: he got the care he needed in this facility. She
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: lived in Santa Barbara at the time. She said, yes.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: And I need you to know that I had done
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: this for her over the course of our 10 year friendship.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I had helped her out numerous times over the course
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: of the 10 years. And I asked her for her help.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: And she was great. She said, while my husband was
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: in this facility in Santa Barbara, I could stay in
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: her guest house for six months. Millian says, were you
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: going to be paying rent?
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: She says, no. I asked her as a friend. She
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: was gracious as a friend to help me out. So Uh,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: she said, I can use my guest house. I, my
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: lease was up. I was going to put my stuff
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: in storage and I was literally going to live in
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Santa Barbara in her guest house for the six months
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: while my husband was in this healthcare facility. You got it.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Got it. Great. So, uh, millions like what happened?
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: She said, your honor, a week before I was supposed
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: to move in, she texted me and said her daughter
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: was having marital problems or whatever and needed to use
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: the guest house and I could no longer use it.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: So wow. A week out.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: A Marsha says my daughter and grandchildren, your honor million says, okay,
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: hold on one second. How many kids does your daughter have?
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: She says three and she's a stay at home mom
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: and million goes. So your daughter calls you, uh, and
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: says she needs the guest house and, but you'd already
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: promised it to Marsha.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Uh, how big is the guest house?
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: She says, your honor, it's one bedroom and a full
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: living room and a full bath Uh, but you also
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: need to know this. Kathy only calls me when there's
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: a problem. Uh, I met her 10 years ago. I
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: moved to Santa Barbara five years ago. I like Kathy.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: She's the life of the party. We call her chatty.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Kathy.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: When she called me, I opened up the guest house immediately.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: I said, no problem. I told her she could come
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: right away if she needed to. She said, no, she
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: needed to come in a few weeks, get her affairs
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: in order. And, uh, A week before she was supposed
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: to be here, my daughter called crying, saying her marriage
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: was absolutely over. She was filing for divorce and needed
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: a place to stay.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: I'm her mother. She didn't have any other options. Yeah.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: I said she could come back home. And you're, are
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: you going to tell me that Kathy is going to
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: have an issue with her prioritizing her daughter and her
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: grandchildren who are going through a traumatic experience right now?
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Remember, First of all, there's some twists and turns that
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: are going to make you even more crazy about this,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: but you need to know Kathy is suing for storage space, right?
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: So like Kathy is suing because she had one storage
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: unit and now because she can't store all of her
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: stuff in this, basically this house, she is suing because
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: the storage is costing her more money because the promise
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: the friend gave her is no longer there.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Okay? Okay. You got that, right? Yeah. It's important. She's
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: not suing for the free place.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: She's suing because she made a lot of plans based
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: upon where she was going to live, and those plans changed.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Okay. That is her entire premise. Okay. It's about to
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: get crazy. You ready?
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Judge Millian says, Marcia, how many bedrooms does your main
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: house have? Marcia says, oh, this is the guest house. Yeah,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: it's a separate house. It's like, yeah, it's like the
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: pool house.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: It's like the pool house. Got it.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Full bath, full living room, one bedroom. She promised it
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: to Kathy. Now she's giving it to her daughter, not Kathy.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: How many bedrooms does your main house have? Marcia says four.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Millian says, who lives there right now? She says, just
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: my husband and I. Millian says, so you promised Kathy
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: the guest house. Your daughter's got three kids. I understand
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: you want your daughter to have her own place with
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: three kids. So you give her the guest house. Did
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: you ever think maybe I could offer Kathy a room
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: in my main house?
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And Marsha says, your honor, I did.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: Your honor, I did. I called Kathy several times. I said,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: you can have a full bedroom. In our main house
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: for the full six months, million says, Kathy, Kathy says,
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: I don't want to sound unappreciative, but I will, but
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: the main house was just one room and not a
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: full living space. Million says, I'm sorry. you're saying you
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: wanted someone to be there for you, and she offered
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: to be there for you. In a way that is
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: putting her out way more.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: That's right. Like, that's somebody living in your dwelling.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: It's not a separate building, right?
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: She's going to get there. So not only is Marcia
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: going to have to care for her daughter and her
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: grandkids who are living in the guest house and are
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: going through a situation where they're going to need her.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: She said, you can live in my house with me.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: In her house! With me for six months. God!
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: For rent free. Ah, she says, you're saying the space
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: she offered wasn't good enough for you. Where does this
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: six 40 come from storage? She goes, yes, your honor.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: I was inconvenienced. I had a plan to have my,
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: like I was a week out. Like the storage had
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: already been booked. I had a plan of all the
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: stuff that I was going to keep with me in
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: this guest house that now I had.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: To figure out, you know, they say about plans. Yeah.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: You said plans are for stands and apples and me. Yes. Okay.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: I did the assume. Uh, she's like, your honor.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: I had furniture. I had things that weren't going to
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: fit in this one room. And she, and me, I
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: was like, all right, so this is about storage. She goes,
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: you were going to store your stuff anyway, regardless, right?
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: You were. Kathy doesn't answer.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: You're moving out to Santa Barbara and you want her
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: to pay because the amount of storage you have to
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: get is changing. Uh, Because she's offering you a free
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: place to stay. Even though she did promise you the
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: guest house, the guest house no longer available. Where'd you
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: end up since you turned down her free room? Where
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: did you end up? She was like, your honor. I
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: ended up, I'm paying rent in Santa Barbara. Wouldn't it
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: have been better? To just stay in the room. She
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: offered you, she was like, your honor, I needed space
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: for my stuff. I wanted to be in the guest house.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: She promised me the guest house. And then she told
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: me a week out. I couldn't have it. I was
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: in a tough spot stuff. Was she bringing her husband?
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, she's older. her and her husband had a
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: whole life together and they were paying rent. So, but
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: it's still, you're going to somebody else's. What I'm assuming
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: is a furnished guest house already. Like how much stuff
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: is of her own? Is she bringing with her enough
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: to where the storage was going to change? Yeah. Million says,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: so what should happen? She's like, should she have let
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: you keep the guest house and then let the daughter
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: and kids have the main house? Is that what she
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: should have done?
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: And she goes, your honor, she, promised me the guest
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: house Lord. And it was a week out and I
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: had had plans and millions. She's still offering you a
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: free place to live for six months. And there's four
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: of them. And there's one of you.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: And now she's being inconvenienced because you are living in
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: her main house, right?
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Marsha says, no, Your Honor, not only did she turn
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: me down, she got mad at me. I offered her
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: a place to stay. She read me the write-out, and
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: she got angry. And this is a Christian woman who's
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: at the front of the church every Sunday, but she's
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: getting mad at me, and she's one of those people
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: that's at the front of the church but with Advil
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: in her coffee. Millian says, what does that mean? She goes,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: you know, from having too much fun the night before,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: but still in the front of the church, then million
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: gets really mad at Marsha.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: So wait a minute.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: What's church for? Isn't having what's wrong with having fun
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: on Saturday night and then going to church on Sunday morning.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: And then Kathy says, you who have sinned, cast the
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: first stone, swing and a miss Kathy.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Uh, it's you. No sin. You missed that one. You
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: can say ride and die. You missed that one. Kathy,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: you missed that one.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Uh, But Millian does read Marsha the Riot Act for going,
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: you can't judge people in church, which good on you, Millian.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Millian's ready to rule. 640 for storage. I can't, in
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: good faith, give her any money. Like, I think anybody
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: that is thinking even remotely clearly would see this situation
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: and have any sort of sympathy for this person's, this.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Woman's your friend's daughter who is clearly something has happened, right?
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Something traumatic happened to where her daughter called her and crying, saying,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: this is it, I was over it.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: Like, just to put it in perspective, like, you and
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: I are really close. In 15 years, when our kids
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: are in their 20s, if I really, like, if you
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: and I had something we needed to do, and we
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: had been on the books for a year, and it's important,
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: we both have to do it. And the day it's
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: supposed to happen... One of my kids calls me or
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: one of your kids calls you and says, I need
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: you right now. You are bailing on me without question.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: If period, and I'm bailing on you.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Period. Yeah. End of story. If my kid, if
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: my 25 year old kid is in a jam. That
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: is it. That's the end of the discussion. And you
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: would just go, well, that sucks for me, but I
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: get it. And I would do the same thing. What
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: are we doing here? And not only that, she did
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: everything that she could to make sure that she still
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: had a place in a way that I got to
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: be honest with you, I don't think I would want
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: this woman living in my house.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: No, Kathy, very quickly. You know, the thing about Milyan
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: is real people, real cases. And Kathy immediately was somebody
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: that just.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: Takes advantage of people. Immediately.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Now, Milyan is obviously not going to give her the money,
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: but the way that Milyan rules makes it sound like
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: she is going to give her the money.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: But I want you to know that ahead of time
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: she didn't freak out. I am going to, yeah, obviously
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: no money. She says, normally in a contract, someone's hired,
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: someone pays. So both sides give something up in a contract.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: It's quid pro quo. This is not a contract. It's
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: a promise.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: If I said I'm going to give you a million dollars,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: I don't give you a million dollars, you can't sue me.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: But every once in a blue moon, there are specific
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: promises that are made, if agreed upon, that do require
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: some backing of the law and a place to stay
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: is one of them. The problem is that... You're saying
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: she promised you a specific space and then didn't provide it,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: and so it cost you more money in storage. But
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: the problem is you're paying rent right now. If you
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: had taken the guest room.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: And then said, I need the money for storage, you
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: would have possibly had a case based upon the fact
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: that Marcia's in the courtroom saying, I promised you the
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: guest house and then didn't give it to you. But
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: you didn't do that. What you're saying is not true.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: You don't need the money for storage because you're using
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: it for rent right now. She offered you a place
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: to stay and you didn't take it. You cannot possibly
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: ask her to pay the money that you clearly have
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: to pay yourself.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: No money for you. Fascinating. At the end of the day,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: it seems like she didn't want to spend her money
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: on rent, but she did. She had clearly has at
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: one point, she starts to say a sentence, the money
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: I was supposed to save. And then she stops. Yeah.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Because it's not like it is. It costs money up
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: front to get into an apartment, right? To get into
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: a rental house. That is one of the big hurdles
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: for people, lower income people, for getting a place. That
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: is a big chunk of change that a lot of
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: people don't have. You got it. She clearly did. So tough, tough,
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: tough boat there. Tough boat. Tough boat. Tough boat. We gaveled.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Put that on a shirt. Tough boat. Tough boat. All right.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: We'll be back next week with two more cases. Come
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: on back for that. Tell your friends. Tell your family.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Tell your enemies. Until then, all rise. Why is this
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: button so weird?
