Recent Reviews
  • t78tt.r
    A science 'grants researcher' as an interviewer on a legal podcast??
    Not sure why the NB Network has science/medical 'grant researchers' with a pointed conservative agenda doing legal/law interviews. There are a lot of JDs out there more qualified to parse legal & religious books. Not impressive.
  • Dr. Lowry
    Great way to review Law books
    Great books, and Jane Richards is a professional and insightful interviewer.
