Coming from a legal perspective, this podcast is well worth listening to. It is an open and frank presentation of issues from a perspective not often heard.

Well worth your time!

Norm Pattis has no value or insight to offer the world on the subject of law. He has a troublingly incoherent, disrespectful, and frankly baffling lack of understanding on basic concepts of the court. It does not shock me to see that he is the same figure making the news right now for tweeting and falling asleep in the middle of a trial he was the defense attorney on.
