Headline reads Liberty to pay Jerry Falwell Jr. $15 million settlement following high-profile sex scandal. You have my attention. Was Jerry Falwell Sr.? Did Jerry Falwell have a sex scandal as well or no? I know that Jim Baker did. Did Jerry Falwell Sr. have a sex scandal or no? Let's see, did he? No, I don't think he did. He wasn't one of those sex scandal guys. He was just one of your

you know, big rich church guys. Now Liberty University I believe is like a church university type of thing. It's like a religious place, right? Which made it funny that that what's his name that Hugh Freeze coached at Liberty. Hugh Freeze, what an arc this guy has had. Just a random thought about Hugh Freeze. Like you know guys doing well at Ole Miss gets whacked he's like talking to like escorts and shit in his phone. Goes to a religious university and then is back in the SEC. It's a pretty fascinating thing. Liberty University will pay its former president, Jerry Falwell Jr., about $15 million to settle litigation following his 2020 resignation after a high-profile sex scandal that drew

national attention to the private Christian institution. I don't remember this story. Must be because it was during the Rona and I just don't remember a lot from the Rona. While the settlement was announced in 2024, neither Falwell nor Liberty shared details about what it included or how much Falwell would get. But buried deep in a recently filed 2023-2024 tax form, the university revealed it's paying Falwell a multi-million figure to quote settle certain claims and close certain transactions. As part of the agreement, Falwell agreed to pay the university $440,000 to settle disputed expenses between him and the university. Details about those claims were not included. In total,

Falwell will receive roughly $5.5 million to settle the lawsuits in addition to roughly $9.7 million he already received as part of his retirement million to settle the lawsuits in addition to roughly $9.7 million he already received as part of his retirement package according to the documents. I want the horny details on the sex scandal. I want Church University sex scandal talk. You better revisit this shit. Let me play a couple commercials and we'll continue.

It's kind of like, who cares if these guys are out getting laid, right? Like, let them go out and get laid. Like, I don't know what this scandal is. I don't remember. But like, and this This is obviously different than say like a priest right like your mega church guys like, you know, Ted Jim and Tammy Faye Baker

like if you're Jim Baker now, obviously this guy was a lot shadier than you know, the average bear yet somehow is still doing church television shit and people are still sending him money thus confirming that everyone is fucking stupid. The fact that somebody like Jim Baker can still have like some mega church on a smaller scale, but I'm fairly certain that Jim Baker is still getting money from people while operating a mega church type of deal. This is a guy that like was a total scumbag, yet the whole like people

are still willing to give him money. Like I'm not against religious people but a lot of religious people are stupid. But that said, a lot of people in general are fucking stupid. We just spent an entire episode talking about how people think a woman was making racist monkey sounds at a basketball game. We are stupid. Anyway, Liberty University declined to comment. University spokesperson Ryan Helfenbein instead directed a report to a 2024 news release about the agreement. I want the horny details on this. Tell me the details. Revisit the sex shit. Okay, here we go. Let's see. Falwell took over the university in 2007 following the death of his father

and founder of the university, the Reverend Jerry Falwell Sr. The younger Falwell helped grow student enrollment, much of it through online classes, while making it a mainstay among top Republicans. And he was one of the first evangelical leaders to endorse President Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign. But in August 2020, Falwell made headlines when he posted a photo of himself with his arm around his wife's assistant. He held a drink in his hand and both of their pants were unbuttoned. He went on leave shortly

thereafter. He resigned just weeks later following news of a sex scandal involving him, his wife, Becky Falwell, and another man. Oh, that's this story! Was this a cuck story? Guy's name was Giancarlo Granada. That just sounds like a guy that would cuck a dude named Jerry Falwell Jr. He and Falwell, he said Falwell was a participant in the multi-year relationship. Falwell has described it as his wife having an affair. Falwell told the Wall Street Journal of his departure at the time he wanted what was best for the university. Shortly after he left, Liberty launched an investigation into his conduct at the university, but Falwell then sued the university. Well, I need to know more. I mean, look, I know that this is like a four-year-old

story, so my bad. But let's start with the the link Falwell made headlines when he posted a photo of himself with his arm around his wife's assistant photo posted then deleted showing Jerry Falwell in unzipped pants why are you taking that photo and how does it get posted Jerry Falwell like why are like if you're gonna do if you're like the dude that's the president of like a church university like you just have to accept that you cannot take photos of yourself with your pants unzipped with some chick that's not your wife you can't do that it's a lot of things, but let's see. Oh yeah, that's certainly an interesting photo. That photo should be, I want that photo framed on the wall and I think Jillian and I should reenact this photo. That's what I'm here for. So she's got some short shorts on and her pants are unbuttoned. His is like someone took this photo. This isn't like

a selfie either. So someone took this photo of Jerry Falwell. He's holding a drink. His shirt is it like pulled up to reveal his belly and his pants are undone. Why are you taking this picture? This is clearly a photo in which nothing good could come of it. I know I'm yelling about something that happened four years ago and I'm sorry but like this is wild that this happened. Now I need some more details like so I think that's what I recall about this. I think we talked about this story now. My B. I think we talked about this story now. My B. I think we talked about this when it happened because it sounds like old Jerry Falwell Jr. is in fact a cuck.

Or like, now, how do you put that? So if you're the one getting cucked, are you the cuck or are you the cucked? Or like, is there a cucker and a cucked? Like, so he's being cucked. So he the cuck or are you the cucked or like is there a cucker and a cucked? Like so he's being cucked. So he's cucked in this situation, I think is what it was. Let's get the other details. Let's see. Following news of a sex scandal involving him, his wife Becky and Giancarlo Granada said that they were... So it had to have been a cuck situation. I mean look if he's good at his job. I mean look getting cucked. I imagine it's kind of an embarrassing thing, but some people are turned on by it like some dudes get their jollies watching

their old lady getting railed by Jean Carlo Stanton or whatever the fuck the guy's name was. So some people are into that but like is that something you should lose your job over and I get that it's a religious University, but who gives a fuck people have an open mind about religious shit. Gays can go to church now. We're progressive. The evangelical leader had already taken a definite leave. The photo is baffling. Why did that photo ever have a chance to make it to the internet? Why was that photo taken? Were you drugged?

There was nothing horny about that picture. There was nothing sexy about that picture. Well I'm guessing is there must have been some horny, freaky-deaky sex things going on with his old lady or something too in that one. Let's see. So, reports of Falwell's resignation came after allegations emerged of a years-long sexual relationship involving his wife and a business parter. Reuters published an interview Monday with Giancarlo Granata who said he had a years-long relationship with Becky Falwell with the consent and encouragement of her husband. So it's like a it's a cuck situation. Granata told Reuters he met the Falwells in March of 2012 at the Fountain Blue Miami Beach Hotel where he worked as a pool attendant. The relationship with the couple lasted from March 2012 to 2018 and involved Granada having

sex with Becky Falwell while Jerry Falwell- oh yeah! We got a cuck! A good old fashioned cuckin' situation! I like it! Good for him! The encounters between Granada and the Falwells occurred several times a year at hotels in the Falwells home in Virginia. Michael Bowie, Jerry Falwells or Michael Bow, Jerry Falwell Jr.'s lawyer told Reuters he denies Granada's

allegations. However, before Reuters published its story, Falwell released a statement to the Washington Examiner acknowledging his wife's extramarital affair. Oh, let's not roll. Okay. You can't roll your wife up under the bus. Like I get that you're probably trying to save your little life here, your little financial well-being and whatever with the church and the university and blah, blah, blah. What you cannot do is roll your wife up under the bus because you're a cuck. That is, look, I don't know about this situation and it's not something I've engaged in. But you've let your wife take the fall for this scenario and that's not right. Also, what does Becky Falwell look

like? And back in 2012, I wonder if she was a piece. Let's see. Becky Falwell. It's Becky with an eye. Oh boy. Like when I hear Becky with an eye, I'm thinking she's like one of those girls who back in the early 2000s would go to the tanning bed and put the Playboy Bunny sticker like right on her pelvic bone and then have like a little little tan line of a Playboy Bunny. Those girls all became meth heads or doctors. I don't think there would be a middle ground in that. Becky Falwell. Are you hot Becky Falwell? Let's see. Not... The thing is, no. Surprisingly just kind of basic. I mean look, look good for Jean-Carlo Granada for making her day, but this is not what

I was hoping for out of this and again I am fully aware that I am breaking down a story that is now five years old and I apologize for that but it was the front page of USA Today that is the nation's newspaper and on the front page is a Jerry Falwell fifteen million dollar story so now I'm digging through what was this story five years ago that I vaguely remember now but then sort of don't remember but I do remember but this chick is not all that hot I mean she's not like hideous or anything like that but I was kind of hoping that you know that like this was going to be super duper freaky deaky sexy stuff you know like I was in my mind

super duper freaky deaky sexy stuff. You know, like I was in my mind, she looked like Hannah McNair. But in my mind, everybody involved in freaky deaky sex scandal looks like Hannah McNair. Don't judge. Yeah, I don't know, man. To me, it's kind of like, like I'm feeling that maybe Jerry Falwell Jr. just let this guy plow his old lady because he didn't want to have to do it anymore. He's like, you can have her bro. Because then there's the other chick that's like the assistant and I'm looking at that picture right now like, oh there's a book about this too? Shit, god damn it. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know this whole thing again I get it. It's five years old. I'm way behind on this story

might be y'all But I don't know I found that somewhat intriguing There are people that are really turned on by the idea of being cucked the cuck-ed Anywho, but so Jerry Falwell's got like 15 million dollars from Liberty University. Fascinatingly enough, this guy got run off but it's the same university that hired Hugh Freeze. Wild times I say kids, wild times. More to come.
