Podcast highlights lawyer’s social clip where client is told to always deny charges
"She goes, "What's She starts to go before before. She's like, "Heads up. It's no. You're always going to say no. We know you did it, but it's always a no.""
About this episode
Comedian Steph Tolev joins Tom Segura for a wide-ranging, largely comic conversation that leans on the show’s recurring format of reacting to internet clips. Early on, Tolev talks about her competitive streak, her gym habits, and engagement to her fiancé, while both discuss appearance, cosmetic procedures and casting experiences in advertising and film.
Segura plays several short viral videos and uses them as prompts for jokes and commentary, including a clip of a man shouting abuse while a disabled passenger disembarks public transport, an “elevator fart” prank, and prank-style flirting videos. A longer segment centres on a social-media “not guilty” promo video featuring a lawyer and client; Segura and Tolev characterise it as a marketing tactic and suggest the lawyer appears to coach the client on what to say.
The episode also touches on social platforms and graphic content. Segura says friends frequently send him violent footage on Instagram and questions why such material remains available while other content is moderated. In a separate public-safety anecdote, Segura recounts taking helicopter lessons and later meeting a former instructor who said he stopped flying after too many deaths among peers.
The closing minutes return to clips and banter, including Tolev’s stated dislike of pranks and Segura’s attempt to tee up more crash footage, which she refuses ahead of flying.
