David Farrier

And this is a woman who stretches the truth in quite a devious way.

Also very prone to threatening to sue over the years, but she's never sued me.

So a couple of weeks ago, I wrote a piece about her husband who is kind of adjacent to her story.

And he has taken exception to that and filed a lawsuit.

I got a letter from a law firm, and they basically, obviously, look at cases that have been filed in the court.

They look at the defendants, they find out their mailing address, and they send them a letter being like... So my letter was like, hi.

David, we notice that you have been named as a defendant in a case that has been filed at this court.

If this is you, reach out to us.

We would love to defend you.

So I still haven't been served yet.

That's the next step.

But the thing that's sucky about this, like when I'm working on a story about someone, and this is a story about a somewhat...

An unhinged New Zealander who's running for US Congress, which is a really valid, fascinating story.

When people use lawsuits to try and shut down free speech, pretty annoying.

And the trouble is you have to defend it.

And so I'm in that process at the moment of figuring out what that looks like.

Yeah, no, all facts.

So it's the first time it's happened in a while here.

I got sued when I made Tickled.

That was 10 years ago now.
