Episode 57: “I’m Ethan Couch and I’ll get you out of this.” – The Affluenza Teen Tragedy



*EXPLICIT CONTENT WARNING* Richard wants to feel bad for this guy but he just can’t. I guess we landed on it being a little bit unethical for a rich teen to kill 5 people with his reckless behaviour and then face almost no consequences for his actions because he’s never had any consequences before.
