Bill Kanasky, Jr., Ph.D. and Steve Wood, Ph.D. discuss the most common mistakes attorneys make during litigation touching on jury research, voir dire, direct examination, openings, and closings. Bill and Steve stress that in jury research, confirmation bias is a major pitfall and attorneys often dismiss unfavorable results instead of using them to prepare for trial. They also highlight how waiting too long to conduct research is another mistake, as early testing reveals vulnerabilities before they become entrenched. In voir dire, many attorneys aren't vulnerable with jurors and also don't go deep enough with their questioning. Bill and Steve argue that opening up personally with jurors and going deeper on their responses helps identify problematic jurors and builds credibility. On direct examination, they caution against long, unfocused testimony, irrelevant background questions, and overly broad prompts that cause witnesses to ramble. Openings should avoid lengthy introductions and dense slide decks, instead focusing on clear, simple storytelling that doesn't overload jurors cognitively. Lastly, in closing arguments, they remind defense counsel that the goal is not to change minds but to equip favorable jurors with tools for deliberations.

In this episode of Faith & Family Bible Study, Steve Wood explores the Epistle to the Colossians—written by St. Paul around 60 AD while imprisoned in Rome. Though addressed to the early Church, Colossians speaks powerfully to Catholics today on spiritual warfare, false “Jesus+” teachings, overcoming sin, and building a strong Christian worldview. Learn why Colossians contains one of the clearest portraits of who Jesus is in all of Scripture, and how Paul's teaching continues to guide Catholics facing modern challenges.

In this episode of Luke21, Steve Wood unpacks Revelation 10, the interlude between the sixth and seventh trumpets. As a mighty angel descends with one foot on the sea and the other on land, Scripture reminds us that God's sovereignty extends over all creation—even during tribulation and the rise of the Antichrist. Steve also explores the command for St. John to “eat the scroll” before prophesying, showing why true prophecy requires internalizing God's word. Drawing from Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Pope Benedict XVI, he warns against shallow substitutes for authentic preaching and emphasizes the urgent need for prophetic voices today—in families, parishes, and youth groups.

In this new series on Colossians, Steve Wood addresses the hotly debated question of authorship. Did St. Paul actually write Colossians, or is it the work of later disciples? Drawing from Scripture, Church teaching, and modern scholarship, Steve explains why questioning authorship undermines biblical authority—especially in a letter with one of the highest Christologies in the New Testament. This episode equips listeners—students, seminarians, clergy, and laity alike—to defend the trustworthiness of Scripture and rediscover the richness of Colossians.

When the Lamb opens the seventh seal in Revelation 8, heaven falls silent before seven trumpet judgments shake the natural world. Are these visions mere metaphors—or literal, world-changing events? Steve Wood explains the biblical and historical background of the trumpet blasts, drawing from Joshua 6, ancient Jewish tradition about the seven archangels, and the prayers of the martyrs in Revelation 6.

Steve Wood, Ph.D. is joined by trial attorney Jeremiah Byrne of Frost Brown Todd LLC to break down a recent case that resulted in a defense verdict. Jeremiah begins with an overview of the facts, explaining the allegations against the defendant and the damages sought by the plaintiff. He describes the mediation process, the plaintiff's settlement demands, and why the case proceeded to trial. Next, Steve and Jeremiah discuss jury selection strategy, including how Jeremiah identified potential pro-defense and pro-plaintiff jurors, developed voir dire questions, and approached strikes. He and Steve walk through key themes from opening statements, how the defense framed the case, and how the plaintiff attempted to appeal to jurors emotionally. Jeremiah details his approach to cross-examination, particularly how he addressed damaging testimony and undermined the plaintiff's key witnesses. He explains the role of expert testimony in supporting the defense narrative and how his team handled unexpected developments during trial. Lastly, Jeremiah shares how the jury reacted, the factors that he believes led to the defense win, and his client's reaction to the verdict.

In Part II of this series (See Episode 541 for Part I), Steve Wood unpacks what happens after the Second Coming—not just souls in heaven, but resurrected bodies on a renewed Earth with Jesus.

What do the Four Horsemen in Revelation 6 really represent? In this episode, Steve Wood walks through Revelation 6:1–8, unpacking the meaning behind the white, red, black, and pale horses—through the lens of both Old and New Testament prophecy. Is the white horse the Antichrist or Christ? Are the red and black horses symbols of historic and future war and famine? And what does the pale horse reveal about the plagues and death to come? Drawing from Ezekiel, Zechariah, Leviticus, and Church teaching (including insights from Pope Pius XII), Steve explores how these judgments may point to past, present, and future realities—especially as world events begin to mirror prophetic signs.

Steve Wood, Ph.D. joins Bill Kanasky, Jr., Ph.D. to answer recent podcast viewer and listener mail. • In voir dire, should defense counsel ask jurors about their AI use and habits? • The judge has only given both sides, three to five questions, max, in jury selection. What do I do? • How can you manage judge conducted voir dire? • How do I counter-anchor in my opening statement if the plaintiff attorney doesn't give a specific number but they just say that they want a large amount from the jurors? • What are the updates on how the plaintiffs bar is using social media to change and improve their ambulance chasing stigma?

In this episode of Faith & Family Bible Study, Steve Wood unpacks 1 John 2:12–14 and the second stage of Christian maturity: young men who are strong, victorious, and rooted in God's Word. Today's young believers are in a nonstop spiritual war, facing intense temptations, especially online. But Scripture offers the tools for victory. Steve shares how engaging with the Bible at least four times a week builds real strength and guards against sin, including the destructive pull of pornography.

In this episode of Luke21, Steve Wood begins a deep dive into Revelation chapters 6–16, where St. John reveals four interconnected series of God's judgments: the 7 Seals, 7 Trumpets, 7 Thunders, and 7 Bowls. While many are familiar with the seals, trumpets, and bowls, the 7 Thunders—briefly mentioned and sealed in Revelation 10—are often overlooked. Steve explains how these four sevenfold judgments unfold as a progressive sequence, increasing in intensity and rooted in Old Testament context, especially Leviticus 26. Drawing powerful connections between Israel's Holiness Code and modern-day moral decline, Steve warns that the sins judged in ancient times—such as sexual immorality, child sacrifice, occult practices, and blasphemy—are now embedded in contemporary culture and law. Are we, like ancient Jerusalem, inviting divine judgment?  Dive into this prophetic section of Revelation and explore what it means for believers today.

Discover why spiritual growth begins with a deep, unshakable belief that your sins are forgiven—not because of your goodness, but because of Christ's sacrifice. Steve unpacks how St. John categorizes believers as "children," "young men," and "fathers"—not by age, but by spiritual maturity—and explains why some Christians remain spiritual infants even after years of churchgoing.

What does the Bible really say about eternal life—and what happens to our bodies after death? In this episode, Steve Wood unpacks the powerful truth of 1 John 3:2 and tackles common misconceptions, including the widespread but unbiblical belief that the soul alone goes to heaven. Instead, Scripture teaches the resurrection of the body and a future of embodied life on a renewed earth with Jesus. Steve draws from Acts, Philippians, John's Gospel, and Revelation to explain what Christians can truly expect after the Second Coming—and what that means for both believers and unbelievers. He also offers a thoughtful reflection on cremation, the Catechism, and how our burial choices can witness to the hope of resurrection.

In this episode, Steve Wood explores how an overlooked theologian, Tyconius, radically shaped Christian understanding of the Book of Revelation.

CSI Litigation Consultant Linda Khzam joins Steve Wood, Ph.D. to discuss managing emotional and anxious witnesses during deposition prep. Drawing on her background in cognitive neuroscience and working with crime victims, Linda explains that many witnesses enter the litigation process with no understanding of what to expect, likening it to being dropped unprepared into a foreign country. She stresses the need to provide a clear roadmap, explaining logistics, roles, and expectations, to help witnesses feel grounded and prepared. A crucial aspect in witness preparation is identifying anxiety before it escalates. Linda describes signs such as rapid speech, over-explaining, or defensiveness as early indicators that a witness is becoming emotionally activated. She emphasizes the importance of mock questioning to surface these behaviors and help the attorney recognize when intervention is necessary. Witnesses are also encouraged to develop self-awareness around their “tells” and learn to pause and regulate themselves before they spiral. Sophisticated neurocognitive training teaches witnesses these tools. Linda and Steve emphasize that deposition prep must be tailored to each individual, especially those dealing with external stressors or trauma. She explains that emotional issues like guilt, fear of job loss, or personal crises can interfere with memory and decision-making during testimony. By building rapport with the witness, taking time to address personal challenges, and practicing in realistic conditions, witnesses can approach depositions with more clarity, control, and confidence.  Watch the video of the episode: https://www.courtroomsciences.com/r/euB

Listen Now What does it truly mean to be a child of God? In this episode, Steve Wood explores the life-changing power of Christian identity, drawing from 1 John 3 and insights from spiritual writers like Sam Storms and the Navarre Bible. While many Christians are told they are children of God, few deeply know it in the biblical sense—a knowledge that transforms hearts and anchors faith. Steve unpacks why this identity isn't just a metaphor, but a supernatural reality brought about by the Holy Spirit, and how embracing it can protect faith—especially in a world where many young believers drift away.
