portnoy knows you wrote a book about him, right? yeah. so i actually reached out to him, obviously, to participate in the book. he declined. you know, i sort of expected that just because there are some things that he probably, you know, isn't too proud of. in his past. the internet was a different time back then, but it's an unbiased account. it's not pro or con. people seem to really love it. and he knows about it. he's actually mentioned it on his podcast. i think it was like three weeks ago. fair enough. so yeah. so now bring a viewer up to speed on on barstool sports. i gave him a quick thumbnail, but if somebody's completely unfamiliar with this, what is it? so they are a digital media company, you know. well, i'll give you the little back spiel of how they got to where they are. so portnoy started it as a newspaper in the early 2000, morphed it into a blog when blogging was really popular from like 2010 to 2020, it was a popular blog. and then from 2020 on, they they sort of shifted to audio and podcasting and video. so they are, a

tell me about portnoy's influence here. >> i use portnoy in my piece des miss about the quote unquote agree with john fetterman on that. actually. it only turns people off. but i look i listen to a few barstool podcasts. katie, i have two washington commanders barstool t shirts. he's not just a red hat wearing trump guy. dave portnoy is a role model to a lot of younger people. he's a millennial. he's not gen z, it's transparent. he built his company from nothing. he's funny. yes. he doesn't like political correctness. yes, he voted for donald trump. but he was also, you know, he came out against the dobbs decision. and so i used him as an example of a lot of people sent me that very tweet and said, oh my gosh, is trump losing the bros? i mean, i think dave portnoy is a good example of a kind of younger male trump voter that isn't full blown culture war. they don't care about the tait brothers. they don't care about the epstein files. you know, they do care about money and making it in the world. and he's not theo von, he's not joe rogan, he's not clay travis. he's just a guy that youn

[applause] to tell us more, please welcome partner, crowell, and moring llp, aryeh portnoy.eh: hamas led terrorists from gaza to israel and committed a massacre of innocent victims. the terrorists murdered more than 1200 people in cold blood, kidnapped more than 250, and tortured countless others as they ravaged and destroyed jewish communities across southern israel. even amid stories of incredible bravery and heroism by israelis, who wrist their lives to save -- risked their lives to save others, the attack is seared into the minds of jewish communities. families have been shadows. survivors have indelible scars. there is no end to the need for help. as we think of ways to alleviate even a small measure of the suffering the il -- suffering the evil terrorists and their puppeteers have cost, volunteerism and advocacy are all essential. what may not be as apparent is an additional avenue to justice through legal action. for american victims and their families in the u.s. courts last july, adl and my firm, crowell & moring, filed a lawsuit in washington, d.c. on behalf of 180
