Late to the podcast party.

As a white male in my mid-forties, it was probably inevitable that I’d end up with an appearance on a podcast since an unfathomably high number of podcasts are showcases for my demographic to espouse their views on things. While I’m a bit late to the party (46), my turn has come around.

More seriously, I was grateful and honored to be a guest on The Podvocate, a podcast produced through the Loyola School of Law in Chicago. We talked about the future of legal ethics with an emphasis on the impetus for, and the state of play of, efforts to re-regulate the profession but also weaved into the discussion a slice of what’s going on in D.C. and whether lawyers are demonstrating reason to believe they value independence of professional judgment under our current system. You can give it a listen at this link: https//soundcloud.com/thepodvocate/season-2-episode-17. The host, Jim Alrutz, does a very fine job of steering the discussion and has a bright future.

If you’re looking to read the voice of someone who is not a white male in his forties on one of these topics, I’d recommend checking out this post from a friend who is a lawyer in Wisconsin at her blog: www.ethicking.com. The post is more than a month old at this point, but, if you haven’t read it, it’s still quite good.
