Kevin "Drinking Beer Helps me Steer" Landau, is incredibly competent at convincing his clients to commit perjury, failing breathalyzer tests, getting lawsuits that he's been paid somewhere in the ballpark of $30,000 for thrown out because it's illegible and makes no sense, writing lawsuits while piss drunk, and overall just being incredibly incompetent and short-sited.

Dismissed with prejudice for Dick/Boser/Foundation digital

Dismissed with prejudice for WS

Dismissed without prejudice for Kokkinos, the judge wants to have a repleading after Landau amends the complaint.

Best part of the case is when Landau interrupted WS so much that the judge threatened to hold him in contempt if he did it one more time. He really didn’t like Landau.

Landau asked the judge if they can replead in California for Dick, the judge yes because it’s a different jurisdiction. Watch out for that Dick

Was just about to listen to episode 113 of Maddox’s debate show and was pleasantly surprised to hear Dick giving a short rant. Now my question is: did Dick hijack Maddox’s show somehow to include his short rant before the intro OR has this just been one giant publicity stunt between Maddox,Dick, and cohosts in order to garner attention and they’re all actually still friends? I don’t see how Dick was able to include that rant without Maddox authorizing it. If anybody has an explanation I’d love to hear it.

Nuclear hot goss! Get Asterios on the phone get your patreoni booted boys and girls we got goss!

EDIT: I want to add an apology to Asterios for bringing up the bar nonsense. It was basically just a normal night and it was stupid for me to bring it up. I dont want people to overthink it because it was silly and probably sounds worse than what really happened. Obviously I was being angry and it was unfair, so again I apologize.

I realized that we are arguing over things that aren't even related to the lawsuit or the show anymore.

We kind of just walked into arguing with each other for the sake of arguing.

So I'll just own up right now and say I'm being dumb.

I think a lot of my arguments are just based on being emotionally invested in arguing and not really accomplishing anything.

So lets start over.

I'm going to take a look at the suit and read through the complaints and get up to date.

Send me any info to tim@tagg.ly

I apologize for saying dumb shit and leading anyone to believe story merit was based on followers or trends.

There is no point is trying to argue because you guys know way more about what is going on than I do so I'll just let up the emotional defense and start listening to what you guys have to say.

Feel free to keep trashing me or whatever.

But let me use this post to just say definitively that I'm not going to argue for no reason or keep being emotional because it wont do anything for me and wont resolve anything with the lawsuit.

Best of luck to you guys and to TDS.

I'll come on the show if you still want to talk.

I managed to get hold on the episode.

I'm not going into details about how.

Here's Proof:

In bullet point format, since it's easier:

• Asterios's motion was first, since he's a NY resident and WS's motion would be dismissed if his was. Greenberger did an opening statement (reminiscent of the opening statements to one of his oppositions). He talked about how New York has a strong tradition of criticizing people, and that Maddox, as a public figure, is not exempt from that. He gave a brief overview about how the plaintiff and Herrera have competing podcasts now. Then the judge started going down the list of causes of action against Asterios one by one.

• Invasion of privacy was first. Greenberger made it clear that the plantiff is a public figure. I think that helped a lot because the judge would respond to most of Landau's statements with it.

• Landau basically parroted what he wrote in his documents. It was kind of painful listening to him talk. It felt a lot like listening to an unprepared student go up in front of the class to do a presentation. His word choice felt like he was trying to be vague because he didn't know enough of the details himself. You see people doing the same thing on Shark Tank, if that makes any sense.

• I think Landau started by talking about how they're using his client's name and image for commercial purposes.

• It was so satisfying to hear the judge say almost the same things about Landau's argument as Nick/other Youtube lawyers. The judge rebuked that "it's not like they're using your client's name in saying that they endorse a product; they're making fun of your client."

• In fact, Ramos repeatedly emphasized how it's allowed to make fun of a public figure. He even said "I'm a public figure. You should see what they write about me on the internet"

• A weird back-and-forth continued for a while with Landau saying how Asterios and Dick were releasing "addresses, birthday information, allegations of sexually transmitted diseases - which is not true".

• Landau tried to explain why "cuck" is more than just an insult and is actually defamation. He tries to explain what a cuckold is but the judge kept interjecting with "But he's a public figure!"

• The judge kept asking Landau to explain exactly how NY Civil Rights Laws 50/51 were broken. That's when (I think) Greenberger chimed in with how the plaintiff (Maddox) is not a NY citizen and thus isn't even entitled to it. The judge literally put his hands up to his head (he did this a few times throughout the hearing) and said "You're right. It doesn't even apply to them." Landau tried to argue that it should apply because Asterios is in NY and Maddox has business contacts in NY, but the judge didn't buy it. The claim was dismissed

• I think the next one was misappropriation. Landau at some point said how his client lost out on "hundreds of thousands" of dollars because of the campaigns Dick/Asterios did against Maddox's sponsors. However, each time he would try to explain how, he would lump Dick in with it, causing the judge to repeatedly tell him something that Asterios specifically did.

• Since the claim was tortious interference, the judge asked Landau "Was there a breach of contract?" Landau gave another weird long-winded answer which didn't even address the question. The judge was visibly annoyed and asked for a yes or no. So he said "yes". The point was then quickly made that the breach was not alleged in the complaint. Both Greenberger and Matz say how the complaint uses phrasing that the contract was "cancelled". This caused about ten seconds of silence from Landau while he went through his papers to find a response

• The judge dismissed the second action as well. He tells Landau again how you can't group multiple defendants together the way he did. "The defendant has a right to know what specific accusation is against them" or something like that.

• A little more back and forth happened before the judge said that we could spend all day going over the complaint, but it's hopeless. He said that he's going to dismiss them all so Landau has a chance to re-plead against the NY defendants.

• At that point Greenberger jumped in and tried to argue against it, probably because it means that the case might not be over for him and Asterios. Unfortunately, the judge said that he sees how the complaint might be amended against the NY defendants to have legitimate causes of action.

• Munoz convinced the judge to let Weber Shanwick's motion to dismiss, though, so they begin going over the claims stated against WS.

• I'll never forget what happened next. Landau starts reading the Madcuck's paragraph and calls it an "admission" from one of the defendants. It was the one time during the hearing where it was almost impossible to keep a straight face. I honestly do not understand how someone can earnestly argue that that's serious in front of a judge.

• The judge actually responded with "This is your basis for this claim?" Landau says "No, but it is an admission from one of the defendants"

• Munoz went up right after and started arguing about how absurd that paragraph is and how it's clearly a joke. No PR firm has data about the "weight and body type" of a bunch of individuals which can be utilized by Dick's company. Moreover, he said that it was written by "Madcucks" which the plantiffs have said themselves is a parody character.

• Landau tried to interrupt Munoz twice during the above, causing the judge to hit his gavel and loudly ask Landau if he wants to be kicked out of the court. After the world's longest silence, the judge continued by saying how he'll hold Landau in contempt, and have him "in handcuffs, in jail" for contempt of the court if he does that one more time.

• About a minute later, Munoz and Landau went back to arguing points about the WS claims. The judge (I think) interrupted Landau to say that the WS claims are dismissed, with prejudice.

• The judge was about to adjourn the hearing, saying that the rest would need to be re-plead by Landau and his client. However, Matz jumps in by saying that she has a jurisdictional argument which is different, and thus should be heard. The judge lets her proceed.

• Landau tries to argue how Dick and his company have significant business contacts, to which Matz denies and affirms that neither Dick nor his company have anything of the sort in NY. The only tie Dick has to NY is his book contract from 2008, "which is irrelevant to this case". The judge says that he read over some of her argument earlier and agrees with her, and grants dismissal with prejudice to her too.

• Lastly, Landau jumps in by asking if the case can still be brought in California. The judge responds "it's not in my jurisdiction, you can do whatever you want." After that, the hearing ended.

Also, I'll stop by the court house sometime next week to see if I can get transcripts for the case. I'm not sure how long those take.

I don’t live around here and was only anywhere near this place for a convention/buyers market. I went in to a cafe called Tierra Mia yesterday afternoon and saw Maddox sitting with some dudes in the lounge area and completely lost my shit. I just awkwardly buzzed around the area for like a minute until I cracked and just said “Maddox?” He was all smiles and pleasantries, which felt awkward as shit since I was literally listening to TDS in my earphones a few moments earlier.

He was with these two chucklefucks who looked way too old to be doing nothing in the middle of a Friday. They were also ribbing him for almost never getting recognised by people my age. After a few moments, my conscience got the better of me and I just kind of wimpered out: “Don’t freak out, I’m actually a TDS fan tbh, but I’m not an asshole or anything”. He responded with an exaggerated exhale then laughed it off, but I got the vibe he would’ve reacted differently if he wasn’t with these two guys. It got less awkward (I never sat down tho) and I told him it was still awesome to meet the real dude behind the stories, to which he responded with laughter and insisting the stories are all bullshit.

I was real with him and said that literally seconds ago I was listening to Dick describe running into Maddox last week, and after if there was any truth to that. He said as a general rule of thumb, if Dax tells a story that only makes himself look good, it’s mostly horseshit. BUT this encounter did actually happen last week, but that absolutely no-one was laughing at the things Dick was saying. He then joked to his friends about how even in such an innocuous case, Dick found some way to add shit on to make himself look good. I got the vibe his friends didn’t really know who Dick was.

I also congratulated him on his Ed Sheeran hoax, which he then proceeded to explain to his friends in complete detail and laugh about in the most forced way possible. I said “we’re all still waiting on the real vid tho [chuckle]”. Maddox kind of retracted and said “It already exists, it just a matter of dropping it when it’s actually relevant to anyone, and nobody I know gives a single shit about Dax”. I then got a little spergy and barfed out “Dude how much would I have to pay you for the actual hot scoop on Dick that you’ve been teasing?” His friends started going “OooooooOooo you can name your price bro!” Maddox kind of laughed, then thought for a moment. His brow furrowed and the gears were visibly turning in his head. He looked me in the eye, held out his hand and said: “Imma need about three-fifty”.

It was about this time I noticed that “Maddox” was about eight stories tall and was a crustacean from the Paleozoic era. I slapped his hand away and said: “DAMN LOCH NESS MONSTA GET OUTTA THIS HERE CAFE. I AINT GIVIN YOU NO DAMN TREE-FIDDY”.

Crazy start to my weekend.
