Fraser Ramsay ,

Fantastic resource

Marcus’ podcasts have been an invaluable resource in not only researching cases for my dissertation, but also for other pieces of coursework throughout the years. Highly recommend.

I am eager for a book perfectly and succinctly explained as well

I listen and have improved in my expression of the law. Is there a date for your book of commentary on the law? Thank you.

Good work

I’m an experienced lawyer and, like most lawyers, have settled into a fairly narrow day to day area. This podcast is excellent for keeping the brain going and considering the wider legal landscape and its presentation and format is easy to follow and enjoyable while walking the dog
