And then I made the I made the formal announcement on Twitter to the predictable

hooting of my awful followers there, but I did want to note that part of the outline and script for this

episode was done by a new addition to the team, our intern, Julius, which is not his real name, but since this young

man is just starting out in the beginning of what I'm sure will be a much better career than mine.

Figured we wouldn't drag him down with us by forcing him to to name himself.

Unless any of the stuff he contributed turns out to be not true in which

case I'm gonna tweet writing a letter yeah directly to his employer yeah no we can

totally docks him that's that is true and maybe we can give him to our friends over at Kiwi Farms.

But anyway, I wanted to say thank you to Julius for the assistance on the outline and he's given some good ideas for episodes and I'm excited. I think it's a new chapter for this August institution.

Just feels very appropriate for a bunch of lawyers to have unpaid young labor doing some heavy lifting. Yeah, the legwork. Oh, Hello and this is the third installment of our series Lawyer brain wherein Michael Andy and I talk about the meteoric rise and equally meteor in Michael Andy and I talk about the meteoric rise and equally meteoric descent of Professor Ian Samuel.

I hope you enjoy. You never see me again.

And I suppose we should get into a story that I think we've been

struggling with weather to tell whether or not to tell.

I have gone back and forth on this so many times in the last like week and a half.

Well, I mean starting with a

clerk in the threat of his life being ruined feels right for this episode.

Exactly. And we are of course of talking about the short strange journey of one Ian Samuel

Let's start off by saying that again we've we've wondered if this was a story that was right to tell but it's just got too many good and directly on point

aspects to it.

And you know, our mission statement here, I think, for the podcast has always been to tell

the unflattering stories about the law and the legal profession.
