Welcome to The Real Oshow, 0:00 Intro 1:00 Brian Steel Saved Lil Durk From Federal Indictments 5:40 Daniel Kokotajlo on Joe Rogan Talking AI 14:00 John Ternus & Iphone Duo 16:00 Closing…
We're going to jump right into it.
His second trial will begin October 5th, but Brian Steele strikes again, getting another not guilty verdict.
He might be the most famous person on the internet right now.
It means a lot to me.
One of my favorite all-time artists, but definitely not out of the woods yet.
Has a serious trial coming up in October.
That's definitely gonna last a couple months.
He's already been in jail for a couple years, but it's crazy Brian Steele's path of how he got so famous, especially in culture and really hip hop music in general.
Initially, post-graduation from the University of Michigan, he actually wanted to be a tax attorney.
Then one day, a law professor let him take part in a 1990 retrial of Michael Cortoraro.
Upon working on the case, interviewing the witnesses, and talking to Michael, he was convinced he was innocent and was shocked when he was found guilty.
That's when he decided tax law is super important, but helping people is actually way more important.
His clients are obviously not all rappers.
And he met Young Thug in 2010 when he was coming up, not really a superstar, and got into federal trouble.
And Brian Steele got him off with nothing.
So that's how their relationship started.
Obviously, he got him out of his most recent trouble, now Little Dirk.
There's a lot of interesting chapters to Brian Steele's book.
And I'll agree with you.
