Thank you so much for speaking out about this. Your work is extremely important.

Thank You for exposing this travesty.

Such a great episode... again! Many Amber supporters have been speaking up and complaining about Depp's links to the Saudi regime for years now (they go all the way back to 2016 at least); I'm so glad that it's finally getting attention like this.
And yet, none of us could've predicted that bin Salman's involvement in Depp's global abuse campaign against Amber was as deep as you've revealed it to be. So thank you for doing so!

Fantastic podcast, thank you for bringing this to light!
Johnny Depp is a wife beater.
I stand with Amber Heard.

Thank you Alexi and Tortoise. I felt helpless when the Amber vitriol started and continued unabated. Poor woman, it felt like society had just taken two steps back from the Metoo step forward. I came here from an interview with Alexi on Radio New Zealand, not from youtube.

Keep up the good work, this is so important. (The view count is so damn suspicious. CZcams is embarrassing. Again.)

[@maikayee246]

Why is the view count so important?

[@dlasta]

CZcams directs you a lot. To a point where you might not even see channels you are subscribed anywhere except on your subscriptions. And if it's a well made video about bots and such? Or bad press for famous people? It's weird, people definitely would want to know.

This podcast is very important. It's as though this government doesn't give a rat's ass about its citizens without connections to oligarchs.
