    I just discovered this intelligent, timely and thoroughly interesting podcast. Colin and Russ are so affable and articulate. I was hooked after the first 5 minutes. I love their rapport with each other. I am beginning to understand that truly good lawyers need to be blessed with the gift of gab. This is an enjoyable, entertaining dive into how our legal system works. The only thing that would make it better is if there was a new episode every week!

  • Facts are incorrect on Karen Read Case

    Feds report said search happened at approx 2:30, you stated 6:30 and that is what DA says, not Feds. Also you left out all the missing video evidence.
