And then The Gummy Worms is about Bill Ogden, one of the lawyers in Texas. He, in a deposition, he was taking a deposition of Owen Schroyer. And he was intentionally eating gummy worms in a really menacing way to, like, gesticulate. Just kind of like almost a threatening level of calmness that he was trying to express.

Bill Ogden describes his deposition style as more aggressive and less pleasant than Mark Bankston's.

In these cases, I've told witnesses, especially ones that have been deposed by Mark and then are now being deposed by me. Or if we have a witness go day one and I'm doing the day two depots, I'll tell the witness, like, I'm just letting you know now, Mr. Bankston wasn't very pleasant yesterday and he's the nice one of us. Like, I will straight up just tell him.

Bill Ogden's role involves mastering corporate representative depositions to make witnesses look unprepared.

To an extent, yes, that's actually what I do. So 30B6 is what we call it, which is a corporate representative depot. And so I just kind of mastered meticulously going through topics and making the person just look really unprepared. And with these topics, it wasn't hard because there's just no way. There's so many false claims and just kind of bullshit being thrown around that no one could know and get a grip on all of it.

Bill Ogden uses tactics like eating gummy worms during depositions to make witnesses uncomfortable and force them to answer quickly.

Making people uncomfortable when you're asking uncomfortable questions makes them just want it to end. So they give you whatever they know what you want. And if they're uncomfortable, they're just going to give it rather than playing this line of things where they... Ask your question again. I don't understand what you're asking. That kind of thing. And so, yeah, Jordan, what you can't see on the depots is I stop at Bucky's, which is a very famous gas station. It's the size of a Walmart in Texas. And there's one right between Houston and Austin. So I stop and I buy this giant bag of gummy worms. And so during the depot, I just open them up while they're asking questions. And I'll hold it up to the light. I'll eat it. And like, I use it as a, and then I'll look over at the witness and they're just staring at my hands. They're, you know, looking at this gummy bear and I'm, you know, I'm just chowing down on them.
