Hey there, Aubrey. What's going on today? I'm great, Lindsay. How are you? Good. Glad to be on the microphone here, but I have a question for you. So do you know anyone who's gotten a slap on the wrist when the consequences probably should have been more severe?

149.459 - 170.596 Lindsay McMahon

Yeah, I would say Sean Combs, aka P. Diddy, Puff Daddy, whatever he went by. I watched part of his documentary. And I'm convinced that he got a slap on the wrist. I think he got four years and something. Maybe the sentence was eight years, but four years of it was like court time. So they... So he has four years in prison.

And based solely on the documentary, I'm no criminal justice expert, but I feel like his sentence should have been stronger. What's the word?

183.631 - 195.605 Aubrey Carter

Should have been stronger. Yeah, should have been stronger. Okay. That's a good example, right? I mean, sometimes when you have money and power and fame, you can get away with a lot of things, right? Right. Exactly.

195.625 - 200.913 Lindsay McMahon

So today, this is interesting. Michelle was talking about getting a ticket for going too slow.

200.933 - 202.075 Aubrey Carter

Yes. I thought this was hilarious.

202.095 - 216.017 Lindsay McMahon

Yes. It cracks me up that she got a ticket for going too slow, but she called it a slap on the wrist. And when I heard that, I was like, oh, that's such a great expression. And we have a lot of interesting ways that we talk about a lighter consequence than we deserved.

215.997 - 223.466 Aubrey Carter

Yeah, yeah. I love it. It's a great story, guys. If you're a regular listener, you probably know what episode that was from, but really good story. We'll share it at the end.
