What‘s Law Got To Do With It‪?‬ Richard Haigh & Rianna Spence

For our 99th episode, we had to attempt getting either of the previous co-hosts, Felicity Radan or Adam Lachance, back. And whoever we had for this episode, we'll do everything in our power to have the other for the 100th. In short, it's the first of two WLGTDWI celebrations!
 
Turns out, we were able to wrangle Felicity. She makes a typically bold return, regaling us with how she's been and what she's done since leaving the fold, including clerking, moving to Vancouver and being prepared (for the unprepared). (At the same time, claiming to be the best co-host Richard has had!)

It's our first new guest since the re-launch. Rianna and Richard talk to Erik Glasford, a section colleague of Rianna's who also took Criminal Law from Richard. Erik has a long history of mooting -- well before law school -- and he shares his love of it with the team. It turns out that it is never too early to start thinking about law!

Richard wanted to rekindle some old memories to relaunch the podcast. Who better to help out than the very first guest Adam and Richard had back in September, 2018, Lil Cadieux-Shaw? We catch up with Lil as she reflects back on what she's learned since leaving law school and what she can impart to new and prospective law students. A lot, it turns out.

WE'RE BACK! It's been 2 years since the last episode. Things like Felicity's graduation, Richard's sabbatical, the pandemic, and the ennui that follows almost put a permanent end to the podcast. But it all changed when Richard was approached by a former student, Rianna Spence, asking to co-host. What joy! This episode introduces Rianna. It's a short one. But please stay tuned as we have a lot more to come.

I'm joined by Kristen Shorer, who has just finished her first year at University of Toronto law school. Kristen did some pro bono work with Richard, and so they discuss the project, what it's like to be at U of T, and how she coped. (Hint: she did her readings!)

Richard is joined by Zafir Jetha-Rattani, an Osgoode student who appeared on an earlier episode (#93). This episode was recorded last year. In it, we mainly talk about Zaf's incredible involvement in the Ukrainian air disaster case of January 2020. It's an example of the interesting things that law students can fall into. When we recorded it, there was no inkling of the further tragedies that would befall Ukraine.
 
I struggled as to whether we should post this episode at this time, but I decided to do so as long as it was accompanied by a warning. You may wish to avoid listening if you find the current situation in Ukraine too disturbing.
