Legal Team, this week we’re diving into Cardi B’s latest courtroom battle — a case simple in theory but overflowing with drama. From Emani Ellis’ flimsy claims and her lawyer’s chaotic tactics to Cardi’s raw, credible testimony that only strengthened her case, this trial had it all. With rare jury questions, a plaintiff who left empty-handed, and Cardi’s post-trial reminder that deep pockets don’t guarantee payouts, this one set the record straight.

What’s on the docket?

• Who is Emani Ellis and why she sued Cardi B
• The allegations vs. what actually played out at trial
• The plaintiff’s chaotic attorney and his own legal baggage
• Cardi’s authentic testimony and why it boosted her credibility
• The jury's questions to the witnesses
• Why the case fizzled with no payout for the plaintiff
• Cardi’s post-trial message and public remarks

Trigger Warning: Discussion of abuse.

Denise Richards cannot seem to catch a break when it comes to the men in her life. In this episode, we’re breaking down her messy divorce from Aaron Phypers and his long list of lawsuits, including one for misrepresenting he could cure cancer. Let's just say, his “healing through frequencies” routine is falling apart and we see right through his tabloid interviews.

What’s on the docket?

• Denise and Aaron’s relationship timeline and RHOBH history
• Aaron’s lawsuits for debt, fraud, and exploiting a cancer patient
• Their divorce battle and why Aaron representing himself complicates everything
• Aaron’s petition and eyebrow-raising income and expense claims
• Denise’s temporary restraining order and her declaration of abuse

If you or someone you know is experiencing abuse, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233).
