Renato,

Do people confuse you with Mathew Fox (Jack Shephard)? "If we can't live together, we're gonna die alone."

Great discussions

Very enjoyable and detailed discussions that include disagreement sometimes. Ads are way too long and poorly read.

Amazing

This podcast has become one of my very favorites. It’s like if your best friends happened to be top legal experts and they’re over at your house drinking coffee with you. I always feel more informed AND more calm after listening. Have recommended it to everyone I know!
