Oh, yeah, I'm psyched up now. Yeah, brother. What you gonna do? Oh, yeah.
Speaker:Listen here, brothers of the Craft Beer Republic. Oh, yeah. Flex just popped a vessel. Welcome in, everybody. Apologies for sounding constipated. I am Greg. I am being joined by Daddy Flexy over there in the middle of the country. Yeah, I just got, you know, the volume of the music got me really psyched up, Greg.
Speaker:I bet it did. That's how it works. It really, really fucking did. That's why I crank it. And headbanging over here in person. Keep it regular. Keep it regular. Back for another week of punishment. Spencer, what's up, buddy? What's happening, guys? Thanks for coming back around. Of course.
Speaker:We have... Waiting for more. Waiting for more abuse. Thank you, sir. May I have another? We have a lot to get to today. We've got a ludicrous libation law, some booze news. We have the drunkest state in America. Interesting. Can't wait to get to that.
Speaker:It's China. Yes. You nailed it. That wasn't a spy balloon. It was someone's balloon that got drunk and went off course or something. It was a drone they lost. They're slowly off course. Oh, shit. That's where we're going. Exactly. But anyways, don't forget, if you're doing any shopping on the old Tavor promo code unfiltered,
Speaker:if you're on the socials, tag us in your beer pics and hashtag show us your beers while you're at it. And do a little rating and subscribing on whatever podcast app it is you use, and it'll help our algorithms and people to find us and all of that fun nerdy shit that I pretend to understand.
Speaker:Can I just tell you real quick? Yeah. I saw a Tavor post the other day, and then in my kitchen I said out loud, Tavor, and I laughed. Because it's just so funny, because it's Tavor, and it just kills me.
Speaker:And when you laughed, did your family look at you like you were nuts? No, I was by myself. Oh, okay. It makes me feel fancy when I say it. Yeah. I got this from Tavor. Pinky's up. Got the Tavor. But every time Greg says Tavor on the show, it fucking kills me.
Speaker:It's better than Tarjeh Boutique. True. Wow. It is true. I've never heard of the boutique part, but yeah, the old Tarjeh. It's implied. All right. Not from Tavor is the beer we're drinking today.
Speaker:That's how a transition's done. Compliments of the man who made it and especially had to do a lot of cleaning for it.
Speaker:We are drinking Made West's Moonhands, and this bad boy is full of nuts. Yes, sir. Tell us about it. It's our prospect border base. Which is delicious. Which is, we do it every now and then. It's not on our regular rotation anymore, but when it comes out, it's phenomenal.
Speaker:And we try to spruce it up a little bit this time. We added about, I want to say 60 pounds of roasted peanuts. Wow. And we still didn't think it had enough peanuts with the Ghana coconut nibs, so we added four pounds of peanut butter. And really kind of jazz this baby up.
Speaker:So let me ask you, do you get more flavor with the peanut butter over the peanuts? I think it helped round it out and kind of bring up where within the peanut butter, I was able to dissolve a little bit. Okay. That way you're able to get those lipids and everything into the beer.
Speaker:Which are fats, everybody. Which are fats. Thank you for breaking that down. And so I think that's what really helped expand and give it like a nice silky mouth feel on it. Okay. Doesn't, I like the dry porter, but this is still phenomenal.
Speaker:I really do like it. Yeah. The nose is fucking jam packed with peanut buttery goodness. I always second guessed it and then I was like 30 seconds later, nope, peanut butter's there. Peanut coming through. Yeah, peanuts coming through real strong. You get a little bit of a coffee, kind of roasty coffeeness on the back end.
Speaker:Yeah, side by side with the original Prospect, you can really tell the difference. The Prospect tastes like a cold brew coffee. Yeah, it's always very coffee. And then this is, I want to say, not viscous, but it has a little more, like you said, that oily kind of flavor, but in a good way.
Speaker:A little more body to it. Correct. Yeah. What's the ABV on this bad boy? 7.5. Nice and drinkable. All day for a nice little, little syrup beer. Yeah. Nothing too heavy. It's not like you're having a Papa barrel aged stout where you're just, and I love those, don't get me wrong, I'm borrowing the lines, but this would be like, oh yeah, this is fun.
Speaker:You're like, I'm not going to wake up with a raging headache or a real super druggy. 7.5, I'll have four of them. Yeah. Thank you, sir, I'll have another. Yeah, until you have that fourth one and you're like, ooh, that was a bad idea. I always hate when you want that big stout at the end of the night and your wife or whoever is like, I don't think I'll have it.
Speaker:I was like, fuck, I got to drink this by myself now? God damn it. I was hoping, and I like it, it's a little leaner, which is why I like it. Still gives you that body that you want, but it's not like you're drinking motor oil. No, no, no, it's not thick, but- Far from that.
Speaker:Flex would appreciate the mouthfeel on this one. It's really good. Daddy loves a mouthfeel. He certainly does. It's just an ICK, it's no three Cs. Oh, okay. It's just thick. Not thick. Sorry. Not even thick, to be honest. We'll take it.
Speaker:No, it's normal. What would you, yeah, I don't know. It's mundane. It's mundane. But it's delicious. It's mundane. Thanks for bringing this over. Of course, man. Tasty. Flex, you have any lunch beers recently? Not recently. I really haven't. I'm starting to hear you're dropping the ball over there. I, on the other hand, this is not something that I'm going to be doing. I'm not going to be doing this. I'm not going to be doing this.
Speaker:I'm not going to be doing this. I'm not going to be doing this. I, on the other hand, this is not something I ever do. Today, I went out and had lunch beers. Wow. I was with the wife, we had the day off.
Speaker:And I said, I feel like Flex right now. We're just in there eating. I was like, I feel like Flex. She's like, the fuck are you talking about? I was like, Flex, every Monday goes and has a lunch beer. And I'm always so wildly jealous. And fuck it, we're having lunch beers. This is great. Is it not the best thing you've ever had? It's not like I've never had one before, but I never have them on a weekday.
Speaker:It opens the day a little bit more. Well, that's what I'm saying. A weekday lunch beer is by far maybe the best beer you'll ever have. It's kind of like that first weekend beer or up there with a shower beer. It just hits the spot, man.
Speaker:And you feel like you're a little dangerous at the same time. You're like, should I be doing this? Should I not be doing this? Well, that's the thing. You're drinking for no reason whatsoever. Exactly. It was great. And it's great. We went to our local pizza spot, Topper's, which if you're from Ventura County, you know that's where the best pizza's at.
Speaker:And if you're from Wisconsin, it's not the same Topper's. Not the same Topper's as Wisconsin. And no matter how you feel about Topper's pizza, they do have the world's best ranch. True. I back that. That is fact. Their Hawaiian heat, though, and that honey pizza. Like they make their own or they just put it in, it's like Hidden Valley in a cup.
Speaker:Yeah, I'm sure it is. In fact, I've been told by someone who used to work there that just Hidden Valley, but like they do some weird combo of like buttermilk and mayo and some other shit and it makes it delicious. Sounds disgusting. Which would make sense. It would keep costs down overall if you're buying gallons of barrels to almost technically
Speaker:of a... Some Hidden Valley. That sounds fucking gross. Yeah, when you put it in the barrel, everybody would be like, uh... Big industrial pumper coming out. It's okay, it's food grade.
Speaker:Right. Oh, God. But anyways, yeah, so we did that. We had a couple beers with our lunch and of course, industrial tub size of ranch with our lunch. So it was good. It was good, I just was feeling the flex vibes drinking my lunch beers and I had to share
Speaker:that. It was delicious. I'm proud of you. Thanks, buddy. I'm going to be having lunch beers probably next week. Okay, get back on that train, slacker. You know what, I try... Sometimes I feel like I really am an alcoholic and I really got to dial it back down. I feel like you are too. Yeah, you know, yeah.
Speaker:It's like you feel it, I feel it, everybody feels it. So sometimes you look at yourself and you're like, wow, you should probably dial it back. Right? Because you're not afraid of admitting if you actually had a problem. But if you take like three steps back, then you don't have to worry about even having
Speaker:the problem in the first place. And then you can eventually... There's a lot to this. Yeah, you know, and then you like, you can... It's like the three steps forward, three steps back program. That's what I like to call it, you know? Yeah. So it's like the in-betweener program. Sure, sure, sure. Yeah, it makes sense. That's what I feel like when I drink for two weeks, like straight and you're just like,
Speaker:I got to take a week off. Yeah, and then you're fine again. It's okay. My liver is screaming for water. I feel dehydrated, but I've been drinking all day. I'm sure you get to have lunch all the time, right?
Speaker:No, no, nothing on the job, not quality control or anything. Uh, like small little stuff, but like nothing like overall, like we're not drinking on the canning line or getting hammered on the brew deck or like, we're just... Sorry to hear that. No, we brew too much and like safety reasons, that's my number one reason why I have to
Speaker:do it. Like we're dealing with like hydrostatic volume of thousands of gallons of beer to caustic chemicals, like everything in between, you know, pumps like that. And then let alone if you ruin a batch of beer and that just cost of grain and hops and everything else.
Speaker:So there's, you know, play it smart. Yeah, I respect the hell out of that. And let me tell you, like back when, uh, when I had my stint with Vertigo, my, my little episode, um, I had it for like six or seven days, but I was off of work for four and then I had to go back to work. You know, got to make the money to buy the beer.
Speaker:But I said to somebody, I said, working like you always think to yourself like, oh man, what'd it be like to work drunk? Right? I'll tell you what. You got a free one. I'll tell you what, it's not fun. It's not enjoyable. Um, so I really respect that with, uh, Spencer over here.
Speaker:Thank you, sir. I feel like Vertigo is like drinking at high altitude. Like once it hits, it's a bad idea. Yeah, maybe. I've never done it, but now I won't. I don't recommend it. I've never, never gotten drunk on the job per se. Actually, that's not true.
Speaker:But, uh, I have had those nights where like, you know, Cinco de Mayo and then I used to work the morning shift at a news station. I was directing local news. There you go. And so I had to be there at five in the morning and maybe I stopped drinking margaritas at two in the morning.
Speaker:A little tiring nap? Yeah. Or just stay up to be honest. I've had so many of those nights. Yeah. I remember the first time I used to, so before I was directing, I was doing like camera and graphics and stuff. And, um, the first morning that I was allowed to direct the news was SES de Mayo.
Speaker:And I came into work, that's important because I came into work still pretty fucked up and was covering it okay. I think I showered, so I didn't smell like a margarita. So you started sweating. Yeah. And then halfway through the show, my boss at the time was like, Hey man, I think you're
Speaker:ready. Cause I'd been directing other stuff and I was, I was young. He goes, Hey, I think you're ready for the, for this show, which was like their big two hour live show. And we were halfway through it and he goes, you want to, you want to direct the second hour? And I was like, fuck. Yeah. Like, that sounds great.
Speaker:You can't say no. No, you can't say no. How do you advance if you don't want to, you know, I'm like, yeah, thanks man. Like, let's do this. What made this happen? Yeah. So I just remember like we went to commercial and it was my turn to like get up there and do my thing. And it was nothing I hadn't done before.
Speaker:It was just kind of the bigger show. So it, you know, if I fucked up, it was a little bit bigger of a deal. And so I just remember sitting there and I was like, here we go. He's like, you all right? I was like, Oh, I am. I'm a okay. I'm a sheet and a half to the wind. I've never been more all right in my life.
Speaker:Yeah. There is nothing worse than having to concentrate and be smart while sobering up. It's just, Ooh. Yeah. That's tough. It's a skillset. Yeah. Not for a lot of people. No, you can, you can feel the hangover developing. This is going to be a category four. It's coming in strong.
Speaker:That's almost worse than waking up being hungover is waking up. Still drawing it. Yeah. And having it actually occur. Yeah, it was. It's that late onset where you decide I felt fine last night. And then you wake up, you're just like, Whoa, okay. Yeah. Instead, it's like you wake up and you're like, man, I fucking feel great.
Speaker:And then like an hour later, you're like, I'm not feeling great anymore. And then 30 minutes after that, you're like, and then you almost sound like a real alcohol cause you're like, man, if I just can get a beer in me, it'd probably even things out. I'd probably be good for like another hour.
Speaker:I'm going to take a quick 10. I'll be right back. I remember when I got laid off from that job, it was kind of a shitty way of letting people go. And they did it. And me and my other buddy who were directors, they were like, fuck this man. Like our last day, we went to the gas station, got some tall boys, sat in our car for an
Speaker:hour. Like, here we go. We went to work and we were in a really good mood to the point where people like, what's up with you guys today? Like, I don't know. We're just feeling good. Just feeling it. It's my last day. I don't got to worry about it. Last day. Got a big case of the fuck. It's, I'd like to say good times with fuck that place.
Speaker:All right. Now for the depression, ludicrous libation law. This takes us to Washington DC where it's legal to drink in bars and it's legal to walk around in bars. However, it's not legal to both drink and walk in said bar.
Speaker:What? Wait, what? Yeah. Apparently you can sit and drink or you can walk, but you can't walk and drink. People can multitask. That's the problem. Yeah. A bunch of idiots out there. It's all the stupid politicians can't pat their head and rub their tummy or whatever it is. I'm still working on that, but I can walk and drink though.
Speaker:Yeah. But why'd you know who's policing this? I think that's what makes these laws so ludicrous is who's actually policing this. Yeah. Nobody.
Speaker:And that's the most, right. That's the best part. Greg was at an ambulance because the sight of you stopped my heart. That's exactly what it was. And that person's done an arc on that is even more of a weird. Yeah. Yeah. So a fucking fucking Stacy. Stacy, put your fucking glass down.
Speaker:You can't walk with the glass. Stacy. I actually know a guy. Keep it separate from your lips. Two hands away. I actually know a guy who physically cannot walk and drink at the same time. Like whether it's alcohol or coffee or whatever it was.
Speaker:We went to Vegas together once and like we, as I always do, I went and loaded up the old cargo shorts with some wabs. Some walking around beer. That's gotta be so uncomfortable. Can we just talk about how uncomfortable that is with the beers banging against your knees?
Speaker:Yeah, it's not the best feeling in the world. It's that specialty like card or shorts built for it now. Yeah. I don't fuck around. Got a little liners on there like each individual sleeved. It's lined with like the neoprene. So it keeps it cold and it protects my knee. The copper sleeves like Brett Varve.
Speaker:Yeah. Exactly. Triple layered copper sleeves. Yeah. So we went, we loaded up with some wabs and we started to walk down the strip and I'm, you know, here I go. I'm fucking chugging my shitty beer, whatever it was, Bud Light or something. And I look over and like he stops to take a drink.
Speaker:I was like, come on man, what are you doing? He's like, oh, I can't. I was like, what do you mean you can't? He's like, I physically cannot walk and drink at the same time. That's only can't walk on like the breaks in the concrete or anything like, nope, nope. Can't walk across like bridge or anything. Just yeah.
Speaker:And so then the next morning we got coffee cause you know, we just been drinking and we're walking across one of those like pedestrian bridges on the strip and he stops to take a drink of his coffee. I was like, what do you need? He's like, I wasn't joking. I can't drink and walk at the same time. It doesn't matter whether I'm drunk or sober.
Speaker:Yeah. It's not an alcohol thing. It's a liquid and moving thing. That's like the old bimbo joke where like you can't walk and chew gum. Yeah, exactly. That's fucking crazy. Yeah. He physically cannot. I'll be honest, my wife's not a whole lot better than he is when it comes to walking and drinking at the same time.
Speaker:I give her shit for it. Like they just can't see where they're going or they can't get, I don't know. I wonder if we call her upstairs and ask her, I wouldn't. Yeah, I would say yes. We should. We didn't get Shannon up here right now. This is important stuff. No, yeah. I'm whitehouse.com right now.
Speaker:Yeah. He's in the greatest life, it's my safe house. Yeah. Mommy, not again. Yeah. So I don't know. We'll have to ask her.
Speaker:Cause yeah, I don't know what it is. I'm perfectly fine. I'll walk anywhere and pound a beer or whatever it is. Yeah. Drink while walking all the time. Some people just can't multitask like that. I guess, man, that's what it is. Maybe she's a multi. They don't trust their feet. They're not happy feet. In some booze news, hard seltzers have hit the lowest share of the beer category.
Speaker:Thank goodness. In dollars since quarter one of 2020. And according to experts, they're still searching for a bottom. Well, they definitely over blew up. Yeah, they definitely burst their bubble real fast. Yeah. They really blew up fast and then it was like, Oh, that situation.
Speaker:Now they're doing white claws though for everybody. I would drink truly over white cloth. I would say that is the lesser of two evils. Yeah. Truly I thought was actually drinkable. Like actually my favorite seltzer in quotes favorite is the Kirkland, the Costco one Topo
Speaker:Chico. I backfledged on this one. I can't stand the Topo Chico one. You don't like the mineral? The regular Topo Chico by itself, like non-alcoholic. Amazing. Never had it. You're missing out. Never had the regular, but somebody else said they loved Topo Chico.
Speaker:So we bought like a four pack, like mixed pack of it. I didn't like any of them. Well, you're crazy. Did you get the margarita ones? Get the margarita ones. Get the margarita ones. No, I don't like those ones. I know this is not a beer podcast. But we like, we have seltzers in the cupboard if we're feeling like being like low carb
Speaker:or something, you know, backups. Yeah, exactly. Maybe like between beers to keep the carbs a little lower. We'll go Kirkland. Truly I'll go truly white claw. I think is the absolute fucking garbage of the earth. I just don't buy four packs of it though. I just stick away from it.
Speaker:Can't do it. Suck it too much. Seltzers. They're the worst. Beer, beer, beer, beer. Urban Artifact is back with another astronaut food. Come on. I don't know if you remember this. It was last. That was 8,000 pounds of blueberries.
Speaker:Something insane. Last June, they made the world's most expensive beer where they put like thousands of pounds of berries in it. They have a new one and this time it's with peaches. And Coley and I, Coley found it for me. She found it on Tavor and we had the one from June or whatever it was of 22 and it was absolute
Speaker:garbage. It was the grossest $20 anything you'll ever put in your mouth. $20 and it wasn't even, it was like an eight ounce can. It was like eight ounce can. Yeah. Shorty cans. Yeah. It was a little midget can and it was disgusting. And she bought two of them. I think there were 20 each.
Speaker:But like what a way. It's the most expensive beer, that's why. Yeah. It was so gross. So I can't imagine the new peaches one is any better. If you want to hear our glowing review that was on batch 310, you can go back and have a listen. I dare you to go back and listen to it. So gross.
Speaker:The drunkest state in America goes to? Montana. Cause there ain't shit else to do. I've got family in Montana, so I won't go that far. I'm still feeling that neck of the woods though.
Speaker:Maybe like Wyoming or one of the Dakotas. It is. It's a Midwestern state, home to one flexmas. Oh shucks. Wisconsin once again, the drunkest state in America. I didn't want to boast guys.
Speaker:I really didn't. I'm trying to flex. According to the study, 25.2% of Wisconsin's population is drunk. Wisconsin adults drink heavily, which is 6% more than the national average. Yeah, that's pretty true.
Speaker:Coming up behind. Next in line is Iowa, where they have 24.6% of adults who drink excessively. Do they detail what is excess? In this article? No.
Speaker:Usually that's like more than I think four a night. Isn't that what? Oh yeah. Four drinks a night, that's pretty true. Four drinks a night or something like that. Which is like, oh, only four. Okay. Thanks for pulling your weight, Flex. I appreciate it. Doing your part. In third, South Dakota, 24.4% of adults drink in excess, followed by Montana, 24.3%.
Speaker:Oh damn, I was fucking close, dude. Almost there. The number five, North Dakota at 24.1%. Just behind. All right. The old Dakota sandwich. Not that again. And then of course, the least drunk states.
Speaker:Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Least drunk state. Least drunk. I don't. I don't. I don't. I'm either thinking, I think number one's going to go Idaho, and then I'm thinking like Delaware. Okay. I'm going Utah. Oh shit. Yeah.
Speaker:Surprisingly, Utah not on the top five least drunk states. Oh really? Yeah. I would have thought it would be. I would have thought it would be a little more overrated than over then. Delaware's a good choice actually. It's actually not. I'm going to tell you there's nothing in the North. Nothing.
Speaker:Okay, fair enough. I think if I know my geography enough. Oh man. Bible Belt. What's above Louisiana?
Speaker:I'm going to say somewhere around there. Missouri. Missouri. No, because they got a bunch of craft beers in St. Louis and stuff. That's true. Yeah. No. Dang. The only thing in Tennessee is like a huge college state. So otherwise. Yeah, Tennessee. I'll just throw it at you guys.
Speaker:What you got? Number five least drunk. Arkansas. Oh, it's got a little farther North. Yeah. Number four, Mississippi. You were right. Tornado Alley, man. Tornado Alley. Damn. Number three, West Virginia. They're not getting fucked up. Yeah, that's true. They're getting scared.
Speaker:Number three, West Virginia. West Virginia. West Virginia. Number three, West Virginia. Number four, Alabama, man. Wow. Alabama does suck. Yeah. Over and over again. Roll Ted. Roll Ted. Number one least drunk state.
Speaker:I was surprised by this. Oklahoma. Really? Interesting. With only 14.5% of adults who drink excessively. It's a very popular state though. Yeah. But also that Tornado Alley, really not drinking too much. No. It's right in that.
Speaker:Oklahoma gets a lot of them twisters there. You think they might be drinking a little bit more? I would. Trying to escape that. A man charged with drunk driving after urinating in street.
Speaker:That was me last Tuesday. That's it. That's a pretty normal occurrence. Spencer was apparently in West Virginia last week. Officers were dispatched to Virginia Avenue around 1.30 AM. Oh, this is a fair amount. There's a Virginia Avenue in West Virginia?
Speaker:In Fairmont, West Virginia. That's just wrong. That's very meta right there. Real creative. Hey, in California, there's a California city and it's an absolute shithole. That's terrible. There's not a lot in Cal City out there. That is a desert dust bowl. I just saw on the news that California is the number one state that people are moving
Speaker:out of. Yeah, it's great. You can fuck out. Half a million people in the last two years. That's crazy. Bye-bye. Officers were dispatched to Virginia Avenue around 1.30 AM Thursday after authorities said a caller heard a possible vehicle accident on First Street.
Speaker:Authorities said the caller also said they saw a man later identified as 21-year-old Riley Fox of... What a cool name. That's like a porn name. Okay. His name is cool. That's fucking good, dude. I did the name. The name is pretty sick. But just wait for where he's from.
Speaker:Riley Fox of... Fox Riley. No. Nutter Fort. Nutter Fort? Wow. Yeah. Fort Nutter would have been way cooler. That would have made it official for sure. Yeah. So Riley Fox of Nutter Fort urinating in the middle of the street before driving off in a car that had a license plate that was diagonally displayed.
Speaker:Officers said they pulled over Fox and could smell the odor of alcohol on his breath and probably urine on his pants. Fox allegedly said he had six beers, but had bloodshot watery eyes and slurred speech, according to the officers. He could have been tired. Also six beers matters what the beer was.
Speaker:Fucking Bud Light or a couple of barrel aged something. What's some excessive drinking we could use over here in... IPAs from Dr. H. Some excessive drinking we could use in Wisconsin here. Why don't you come over here, Riley Fox, with your porn name.
Speaker:Riley Fox of Nutter Fort. Officer documents said Fox failed a field sobriety test and had a BAC of 0.186. That's pretty high. After being taken to the police station. Yeah, a little over double. Officer said Fox struck two parked cars on First Street and then left the scene.
Speaker:He's been charged with DUI, indecent exposure, no insurance, and leaving the scene of an accident. By accident, do they mean accident in his pants? He's being held at North Central Regional Jail. I feel like indecent exposure, it's not like he purposely showed anybody his stuff, right?
Speaker:Man, if you pee in your backyard and your neighbor sees it, you end up on fucking Megan's Law and all that stuff. That's crazy. You gotta keep your hoo-ha on your pants. It's different times. It's not the modern era. Back in my day. I remember peeing anywhere I wanted to. Got to know the right spots.
Speaker:Yeah. With the camera, I can't see you. Stay away from the elementary schools. Or the love of it. Noted. Yeah. Fox is like, God damn it.
Speaker:Florida always flows the best. Thanks to Scott for sending this one over. A husband caught cheating, drove drunk legally to escape his angry wife, according to a jury. Wait, wait, say that again?
Speaker:Husband caught cheating, drove drunk legally to escape angry wife. California jury finds. So that way he wouldn't be beaten to death by his wife for cheating on her. Well, here you go. A husband caught cheating on his wife, drove drunk legally to escape his angry wife and
Speaker:lover, a California jury found. The 60 year old you, Kaya man was caught driving with the blood alcohol content of point one, 1%. So, you know, oh, it's drunk and he's at 11. The Mendocino County District Attorney office said in a Facebook post in California, it's
Speaker:legal to drive with BAC higher than 08, which is everywhere. Why would you say in California? After a four day trial, a jury found he was not guilty of driving a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol and not guilty of driving a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol point or greater.
Speaker:The defense argued that the man's driving was legally justified after the man's wife caught him cheating his driving quote. Here we go. Quote, his driving was necessary to allow him to escape two angry women. End quote.
Speaker:According to the testimony presented, the prosecution argued that the law of necessity should not and has never been used in a situation like this. But the judge allowed the argument to be heard under this under a necessity defense. The district attorney said the defendant must prove a number of conditions, including that
Speaker:he acted in an emergency to prevent a significant bodily harm or evil to himself or someone else. He must also prove that there was no adequate legal alternative and that his driving with a blood alcohol greater of 0.08% did not create a greater danger than the one he avoided.
Speaker:Lastly, the defendant must prove he did not substantially contribute to the emergency. Mendocino County is up north, I don't know why it's not as bad. So anyways. Yeah, you guys way up there. Way in the Humboldt. Yeah. So he got, got drunk, got caught fucking his other lady friend and then drove drunken because
Speaker:he was escaping danger. They let him go. Two angry ladies. Wow. Yeah. Not just one. I would. Yeah. I would. You gotta do what you can in that situation. But if they feel you're a lesser threat than those two ladies, then just don't do it again.
Speaker:Yeah. I mean, regardless and at least regardless. Right. Be a little more careful next time. Get a hotel room. All right. Be classy about your team. That kind of makes you think like if he escaped too angry of him, he was like the other one is a secret. Like they were secrets from each other. From each other. Yeah.
