The Law and Literature Podcast Series — An IntroductionWhat began as a modest proposal evolved into an ambitious five-part podcast series: five hour-long conversations recorded in an intense burst between demanding court commitments. The result is expansive, discursive, and unapologetically searching — a sustained meditation on law, literature, morality, and the corrosion of principle in modern legal culture. At its core lies a concern: that we inhabit an increasingly diminished intellectual universe — not least within the legal profession. The series confronts the rise of technocratic careerism, the erosion of moral seriousness, the collapse of the distinction between legal guilt and moral innocence, and the growing denudation of the rule of law both domestically and internationally. It interrogates nihilism, public contempt for lawyers, and the profession’s complicity in its own moral decline.The structure is chronological but thematic.Podcast
