Whether it's flying halfway across the globe or tuning in online, there is a world of incredible benefits awaiting law students who sign up to mooting competitions that ordinary clerkships, community centres or other work experiences may not offer. In this episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Naomi Neilson is joined by Australian National University (ANU) law student and former sub-team captain of Team Australia, Madeleine McGregor, to talk through her experiences with mooting – both national and international – and go over why it's so beneficial to her future career.  Commenting on what advantages mooting law students can take into their new legal pathways, Madeleine said that while there is a lot to learn and take away during university, understanding how to be an advocacy lawyer is the “one thing missing”.  “That's why I wanted to get into mooting in these competitions, [to pick up] the element of oral advocacy or written advocacy, and the art of constructing an argument, taking a stance and really sort of fighting for a side,” she said.  Madeleine also has some extra tips on finding unique and fulfilling pro bono opportunities and advice on why it is so important for students to get involved.  Check out this and more in the episode below!  If you have any questions about the episode or if there are any topics that you might want us to look into, please reach out – we would love to hear from you!  We're also always open to new guests so if you have an exciting story to tell, if you're standing out as a student or graduate, or if you can offer some tips for our young lawyers, get in touch.  You can reach us here: Emails: editor@lawyersweekly.com.au or naomi.neilson@momentummedia.com.au Socials: Follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter or reach out to me directly here.

A new comedy podcast for movie lovers. Adrian and Pete have been posting ideas for movies to their Tumblr for years. Finally they’ve got a series of big meetings with real entertainment industry people… the trouble is all their ideas are insane. Listen in to hear them pitch their ludicrous ideas to each other, before they decide which concept to take to the horrified professionals… All motion picture concepts described are for sale for £1,000,000 + VAT. This podcast is completely ridiculous. You have been warned. Lots of love, Adrian and Pete

Feds including some of the finest and most experienced trial lawyers in the country proffer specific, word-for-word, 5-minute lines of questioning for Special Counsel Robert Mueller.  They defend their own lines of questioning and critiques others in turn.  The  Feds then engage in a trial lawyers’ discussion of what goals are achievable from Mueller’s testimony, which risks are worth taking and which are not, what tone to take in the questioning, how to handle the expected obstreperousness of the Republicans, how exactly to make use of the Mueller Report, and other fine points of the trial lawyer’s art as applied to this critical hearing.

Andrew Middleton attends a mooting session. He joins Leslie Lomax and her undergraduate law students from the Mooting One module in a two hour mooting session to find out how this form of professional role play works and to consider its application to non-law disciplines. The Faculty of Development and Society's 'Mooting One' is an exciting module designed to develop research, legal argument, advocacy, team work, self-management and reflection skills. He references a session by Kirsten Hardie from the Arts Institute at Bournemouth presented at the HE Academy Conference 2006 entitled 'On trial: teaching without talking'.
