Love the new podcast... Interesting informative and short enough to keep people engaged... Keep them coming ...
Mr.
Wow....what an excellent new podcast that highlights and helps sift through current events and their more complex legal implications in a way that's easy to understand for us "non-lawyers." I have a number of go-to podcasts that I enjoy but none that address today's legal issues in this straightforward and informative way and in such a short amount of time. Well done and keep 'em coming!
