Customer Reviews
Great Show!
I learn so much from this podcast. Really appreciate Episode 71 and Chief Haskins sharing her wisdom. Congrats and welcome aboard to the new hosts! Maj Mary Scott Hunter, 908 AW/JA
Better than the last
I had never listened to podcasts before, but I saw a reference to this in an email and thought I’d check it out. Now I’m obsessed. I listen to these on the way to work and step in the office feeling inspired, like each day will be better than the last. Only downside is that I thought I’d try listening to some other popular podcasts, and each podcast has been worse than the last.
Great Delivery Mechanism
While this a resource anyone can utilize, the members of the Air Force JAG Corps can really benefit from an audio resource as this rather than another published document. Lawyers read an inordinate amount of content already and the ability to drop some headphones on and hit the track or treadmill is a nice change of pace. In general this a well produced and professional means of teaching complex but interesting content. Please continue the podcast mission.
