I’m sick again, so not in chat, but loving Runkle’s coverage as always. I’m rewatching his observations of the cross again for lunch. ☺️ (P.S. Don’t think about it as a discussion about video games. Think of it as the planning for an incredible unique and hugely successful 24-hr fundraiser for sick children. Welcome to Runkle of the Bailey. Where we get Runkle wisdom, Runkle stories, Runklisms, and Runkle love and enjoyment of many things. This is not just a mere legal commentary channel. This is Runkle World. We love being here. 💜)

Today was a good example of why we need good lawyers for defense. Thank God for Ian’s pro bono dreams. We have zero chance because most of us simply don’t have the money to afford this kind of stellar defense with their extensive teams.

You're the law + gun expert. I very very much appreciate your combo of expertise and hope that you can go pro bono asap!!

The fact that people on all sides point at you and say how biased you are against them is kind of proof that you're going with "just the facts" of the case. As the case goes on and more facts are presented, bias may form. That's the point of arguing a case. You can still look at individual points the other side makes and think they are legally sound or proper, even if you don't agree with their premise.

Tell EDB that I am having a law affair with Runkle of the Bailey

Each day as its own stream is so much easier to find.

Just finished the stream (joined late) and I wanted to say that I really appreciate that you said you would rather commission an artist than use AI near the end when someone was talking about a Seal for the channel. AI has such a negative impact on artists, and as an artist (textile/sculptural so a little different, but people now expect things that don’t work due to physics/underestimate the work that goes into large pieces) I’m extra vigilant of basically everything as a result.

Defense was on ball today. The opening had me worried but, this was bang on.

Waiting for afternoon. Missed morning because I was at jury selection locally. I made the cut, trial starts next week

Hair is extra curly today, Runkle. Very nice!

On the replay crew today, looking forward to some of these fireworks 🎇

Reporting in for Replay Crew duty! The, "New York City!", clip always makes me giggle. 😂

Good morning ☀️ Really enjoyed your stream yesterday. Starting my Friday listening to day 2.

Replay crew here. Really astounded by how Baldwin's lawyers present themselves during this day.

It's good that there are enough of us to watch all of you. :) As always, many thanks for your coverage.

It’s really interesting to watch this after the Karen Read trial. I’m surprised at how much less impressed I am by Baldwin’s lawyers compared to Jackson and Yanetti.

Pasta = Pahstah. LOVE your stream. Bravo!

Love your coverage Runkle ❤.

I like seeing the difference between what you pick up from the lawyers and witnesses and what EDB does. :)

Replay crew here!!! 🎉

Ian Runkle is without a doubt the best of the best of funny, cool, honest, brilliant and yes handsome podcasters/content creators on YT. All others pale, no pun intended, in comparison!

Replay crew - work wouldn’t let me listen today 😪 I have seen witnesses like her twisted around without this approach. Spiro has stated multiple times that she is accusing him. Her job was to collect evidence. This testimony is still going on and it’s so irrelevant. He could have easily gotten her off track and made his points to get the jury to see his point in like 10% of the time. Also as the tech, wasn’t she the lowest ranking person at the scenes? I think his approach can have an opposite effect on the jury. Morrisey gets criticized for being snippy - but compared to him, she’s a sweetheart. IMHO. NOT a lawyer - I wouldn’t survive LOL but I do know a few and have performed legal research which is why I love this stuff! Just out here asking questions! Love the live stream!

Ian ~Very interesting sidebar discussions after lunch, 3-4p (before pt 2) today.

The Arkham trilogy, the first 6 assassins creed games & all the resident evil games are my all time favorite games

It's incredibly normal to recycle brass. We used to use one of our spare bedrooms strictly for that purpose. Stoked about you doing gavel to gavel coverage also as a fellow enthusiast. Looking forward to tomorrow to see how many times Hannah tries pleading the 5th, especially when it won't apply. Cheers! 🇨🇦

When Baldwin looks intently at his desk, he is playing Wordle.

I'm sorry, AB is the one at the with the pew pew in his hand and was reckless with it. This doesn't eliminate his part.

I'm not even caring about what different real and fake bullets look like. As far as I'm concerned, him pointing the gun at her was enough. There's a reason for the rule "all guns are always loaded". It's because many people have been hurt or killed by guns that "weren't loaded". No magic bullet event occurred here. He had his finger on the trigger and pointed the gun at her. Had he obeyed any one of basic gun safety rules, she would be alive. If this were the ONLY incident, I would still think he's guilty, but I chalk it up to just making horrible mistakes... but there's endless footage of him playing with the guns, firing them after CUT. We're supposed to believe an actor with decades of experience in movies with stunts and firearms wasn't aware that it's dangerous to everyone on set to play with potentially dangerous props after cut? Really?

38:45 oh no!! There's a huge board blocking Alec. He won't be happy. He can't stare down the witnesses like he did yesterday.

I dont recall, did he wipe that smirk off her face ?.....*giggles*

Replay crew reporting! 👍

That's the Mexican Brown or Harpy Eagle on the seal. It is known as the royal-hawk in Portuguese. The Eagle on a cactus with a snake is the same concept as appears on the Mexican Coat of Arms and is a Aztec myth. However the Mexican image depicts a Golden Eagle. The Harpy Eagle was considered sacred to Quetzalcoatl in Aztec religion. However these days the bird has been eliminated from Mexico.

One question i have always had, why is it even in question if he pulled the trigger, weren't cameras rolling? Just pull up the footage

The Old Bailey. The Central Criminal Court of England and Wales, commonly referred to as the Old Bailey after the street on which it stands, is a criminal court building in central London, one of several that house the Crown Court of England and Wales. The street outside follows the route of the ancient wall around the City of London, which was part of the fortification's bailey, hence the metonymic name.

Replay crew 😊omg it is 29 Celsius in my condo in Edmonton 😮

In my opinion, although I strongly dislike him and Baldwin handled the weapon negligently, I probably wouldn't consider him criminally responsible. The prosecution would have to acknowledge the accident and the defense would have to acknowledge the culpability and THEN, the argument would need to be solely on the point of law, before my mind would be open to find him guilty if I was a juror. Playing with a gun is not and should not ever be considered a crime. In my opinion, everything beyond establishing the place, time, and incident has been a complete waste of time. As it stands, the difference between Baldwin, the armorer, the prop company, and the AD is that Baldwin is not an expert, nor is it his profession to handle guns and ammunition he is a layperson in that area, either as an actor or a producer, no matter how much experience he has had with firearms.

You just explained why the blood needs to be fake😂😂😂😂

❤

I love Runkle, but this trial has been grating on my nerves so far. From Baldwin’s demeanor to Spiro and Morrissey’s snarkiness. Not sure if watching the trial is worth the time. Might just wait for the verdict.

Children don’t stand a chance on this channel!😂

I’m alarmed at how impressed you are with the defense guy. The bar must be very low.

Canadian here, via WInnipeg area, do you think this would be a different trial in Canada? I feel like his odds of not ending up in prison would be near 0 in Canada, although, I don't really know anything about Canadian firearm law.

You should play the stanley parable

Sad to say Runkle but I haven't been watching much of your stuff lately as you concentrate of trials in foreign lands. Don't forget your base please.

I couldn't make any of the livestream today, but I'm insanely curious about what pissed off Adair so badly at 14:29. Anyone know? Surely her words of wisdom must be great and spill from her mouth like a great fountain of gold to generate that amount of hostility over having to repeat them.

It’s not a hawk. It’s a golden eagle. The flag represents the joint influence of the United States and Mexico on the state. The Aztec legend for the founding of Mexico City, and hence of Mexico, is that a prophecy told them that they should settle where they saw a golden eagle on a cactus eating a rattlesnake, and they found that on one of the islands of Lake Tenochitlatan. ( I hope that I spelled that right.)

Spiro definitely seemed smarmy and condescending on opening statements, but he really is earning his keep on this

QQ Hi from Whatcom CO WA. If they were doing blocking Why was there any cartriges( of any type) in the revolver?

I disagree as an average person I wouldn't be distracted by the stuff the defence is raising about the prop house because it says nothing about the pertinent charge. If anything it points out the prosecution's point that you can never trust that there isn't a live round mixed in with the dummies and blanks on a movie set and EVERYONE should be vigilant at all times. I hope the jury isn't distracted by irrelevant shiny objects.

This ultimately is a set that was his responsibility. IMO it’s like believing your family is fine and doing well and then finding out they are completely reckless, driving 100mph, or using drugs etc and you were just going along looking the other way. You have to pay attention to groups and situations you are responsible for. If he has any conscience at all he would be feeling the weight of his responsibility and lack thereof.

I don't think Spiro did that "brilliantly" well. He again went too far with the allegations and attacks. I think the judge shouldn't have allowed him to question her about things she doesn't have personal knowledge of.

watching on delay- game suggestion - shadows of doubt

Boom 💥 I’m late again 😢

Play portal stories mel, it's a portal2 mod that is amazingly done.

Why was there live ammo on the set and who bought it there? Why was the gun loaded if this was just a rehearsal? Or did Baldwin request a loaded gun?

nice to have your brother supporting you in court!

I have a m1 carbine

Mostly off topic: Jensen Ackles as Batman would be cool, but also funny because he voiced Red Hood in one of the animated movies Edited to add: please please please try one of the Phoenix Wright games. I want to see your brain break.

1:44:26 so was the wedding cake a lie?

What has that guy behind Baldwin got in his ears

I give 60% to alec because he was in charge and pushing hana to break the rules. If she was an old hand with 20 years experience and a big name ot her armorer business, she might have fought back and stopped him. But a new business trying to get established and she says no to Alec Baldwin the star and producer? That rough. Alec's defense is gonna be 'im an actor, everyone knows i cant be trusted with a pewpew.' Which would work in California or if he wasn't also producing/and directing, so he's ALSO in charge of everything.

HE was responsible for the WHOLE SET!!! He was the PRODUCER!! And there were misfires on set before this incident!! He shot after “Cut” he wanted fast charging of firearms without time to check the weapons!! He gave Hannah a DUAL ROLE, half armorer and half proper!! He let the prop personnel hand guns over to actors!! It was great listening to your analysis of his performance, I don’t know much about song and music but I still love to hear new takes of old songs. And if that is something that you also appreciate it would be great if you could react to his version of Girls Just Wanna Have Fun ….

Play the resident evil remakes

if jesus was her lawyer hana still shouldve got 18 years, not 18 months.

Ahhh Runkle I love you, but it's kinda hard to hear you fanboying after the defense lawyer's faults as brilliant tactics we yet can't understand every 5 seconds,...

Okay, so here's my problem with Spiro's cross of Poppell, he feels like he's playing games with red herrings. He is asking great questions and it would be effective in HANNA's case. To me, this cross has nothing to do with BALDWIN's case. Where the bullet came from doesn't matter for this defense. It could have materialized from the ether into Baldwin's gun and it would not matter. If I was on the jury, I would really dislike him.

2hrs 48 mins in... I find your faith in Defense attorney disturbing.... He is currently an oxygen thief of the highest calibre.

You mentioned Red October without talking about Hutchence's dad. AND Halyna was doing human trafficking docunentary work. She was awesome.

Busy work day for me
