Episode Summary In this episode of the Jabot Podcast, host Kathryn Rubino speaks with Molly Coleman, Executive Director of the People's Parity Project (PPP) and newly elected St. Paul City Council member, about organizing within the legal profession and redefining the role lawyers play in democracy. Coleman shares how her early work in public education inspired her to pursue law as a tool for systemic change, and how the People's Parity Project grew from a small group of law students into a national organizing force challenging corporate power, forced arbitration, and inequities embedded within the legal system. The conversation explores the ideological shaping of law students, the long-term influence of legal movements, and the importance of building alternative pathways for lawyers who want to advance social and economic justice. Coleman also reflects on organizing during political crisis, the limits of courts as vehicles for change, and why community action — not institutions alone — ultimately drives democratic resilience. This episode offers a candid look at legal activism, professional responsibility, and what it means for lawyers to engage both inside and outside systems of power.

Marriage, babies, law school, internet drama… we really said “let's cover everything” in this one.

In this podcast, Jeff discusses the attack on the Iranian terror regime by the U.S. and Israel — and the impact on the Middle East and the world. Will loud MAGA voices continue to do all they can to stop the fall of the mullahs of Iran? Or will they put aside their anti-semitism for the sake of America and the free world?

Welcome to The Other Side of Midnight with Lionel, where constitutional law meets late-night talk radio chaos. Lionel attempts to school the masses on what the U.S. Constitution actually says about due process, privacy, and abortion, explaining why it isn't a magical jar of "spaghetti sauce" that holds everything you want it to. However, the legal lecture quickly derails as wild callers hijack the show to debate Civil War states' rights, Pizzagate, Ray Bradbury, chaotic entropy, and Nest camera surveillance. Stick around as Lionel breaks down Fourth and Fifth Amendment technicalities before teeing up a mind-bending finale on Einstein, quantum mechanics, and the sheer philosophy of time. It's educational, highly entertaining, and beautifully unhinged. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Let's talk about every lawyer's favorite subject: exams. It seems like every day, there's another threshold that generative artificial intelligence crosses. First, it was able to take a bar exam and do reasonably well. Then it was able to ace it. Same with law school exams. Right now, AI would probably graduate at the top of its class, edit law review and land a six-figure associate's job with an Am Law 50 firm. Now comes another milestone.

Two brutal attacks across the motu have returned public attention to the issue of dog maulings that stubbornly refuses to be resolved. Since 2020, we've seen a 20% increase in injuries to people from dogs, coming to nearly THIRTY THOUSAND dog-related injuries reported per year (half of which are bites), and these are the numbers collected without mandatory reporting in Aotearoa. In the wake of these dog attacks, which saw one woman in Northland lose her life and a father and son in Christchurch severely injured, many people are looking for the government to act to address this issue that frequently flies under that radar until tragedies like this strike.  But how to respond, and what changes should be focused on, remain open questions. To get his opinion on how we should approach the issue, Wire Host Manny spoke with Associate Professor at Auckland Law School Marcelo Rodriguez Ferrere on the issue of animal control legislative reform.

We're constantly hearing of geopolitical tensions raring their heads across the world, with talks of ‘great powers' flexing their dominance - commercially, economically, militarily - brazenly. One arena of such confrontation is the Pacific. But when we discuss this region, are we sidelining the peoples and nations who actually live there? Recently, the Associate Dean Pacific at Auckland's Law School, Professor Guy Fiti Sinclair, hosted a workshop foregrounding Pacific-centred understandings of how the Pacific is contending with international law and governance amidst these tensions. So how should we think of the Pacific as a region? Who are the organisations representing the ‘blue continent', and is Aotearoa New Zealand a facilitator of Pacific interests, or just our own? Producer Theo spoke with Professor Guy Sinclair to understand more.

If we want to understand why capitalism feels broken, do we need to stop looking at the economy and start looking at the legal code that underpins it? In our system, capital is often described as money, machinery, or raw materials. But Columbia Law School professor Katharina Pistor argues that capital is actually a legal invention. An asset, whether it's a plot of land, an idea, or a promise of future pay, only becomes capital when it is given the right legal coding.  Pistor suggests that lawyers are the true coders of capitalism. They use the law to "enclose" assets, from land to user data, giving owners the power to exclude others and monetize that value. She argues for injecting principles of "fairness and reciprocity" back into private law, ensuring that contracts aren't just tools for the powerful to extract value from the weak. Luigi Zingales suggests that large corporations have become so powerful we may need a new branch of "quasi-public law" to govern the asymmetry between an individual consumer and a corporate giant. This episode explores the deep, often invisible architecture of our economic system and asks whether we can ever truly tame corporate power without rewriting the rules of the game.

Cameron is a current student, a part of the California Law Office Study Program. Currently working as a Law Firm Administrator at Earl Carter Criminal Defense and Schank Family Law. This episode with Cameron Schank is one that is the epitome of the kind of stories I love to highlight on this podcast. The most unique journey I have encountered throughout all 153 episodes so far. Cameron is a part of the California Office Study Program, which allows him to take the bar without ever stepping into a Law School classroom. Cameron brings us down his journey, noting how he came to find this program, how it works, and how it has been thus far. And despite not being in Law School, Cameron has made incredible efforts on LinkedIn to still build his network and build relationships, despite never stepping into a law school classroom, which further shows the necessity of building a network within the field of Law. This episode was a fascinating listen for a new pathway into the law, which, before this episode, I had no idea about. And even better, it came from a fascinating man!

Join us for an inside look at the messy, blurry—and often fascinating—reality behind what you thought you knew about courtroom procedure.Welcome to Lawyer Talk! In this episode, Steve Palmer and law student Troy Henricksen dive deep into the real-world drama of suppression hearings—a process that determines whether evidence should be kept out of a criminal trial. While law school teaches the basics about motions and constitutional amendments, it rarely shows students how these issues play out in the actual courtroom.Drawing from their recent experience with a case involving Miranda rights, consent, and nuanced police interviews, Steve Palmer and Troy Henricksen break down the steps of filing a suppression motion, navigating unpredictable courtroom dynamics, and facing off with government attorneys. They discuss what happens when police testimony evolves under cross-examination, the importance of truth-telling, and why confronting witnesses is crucial.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

Tim Maudlin is Professor of Philosophy at NYU and Founder and Director of the John Bell Institute for the Foundations of Physics. Jacob Barandes is Senior Preceptor in Physics at Harvard University, where he works widely across the philosophy of physics, with focuses on the foundations of quantum mechanics, the philosophy of spacetime, and the metaphysics of laws. In this episode, Robinson, Tim, and Jacob discuss Jacob's novel approach to quantum mechanics, which he calls the “Indivisible Approach”. More particularly, they discuss the problems at the core of quantum mechanics, the ontology of the theory, causality and quantum phenomena, probability, and more.
