    Judges Drop Bars in Law, Love, and Poetry | Professor Hoctor

    Send us a text I am excited to share an episode that gave me a lot of delight to record, partly because it is my first strictly academic episode, but also because I recorded it with my mentor Professor Hoctor! In this episode, Professor Hoctor explains the interesting parallels between law and poetry. He takes us through how the two often feed off of each other in insightful ways. Listen and learn about: The similarities and differences between law and poetry; Why judges sometimes turn to poetry in their legal reasoning; and When judicial officers have written judgments as poems or rap songs!A fascinating discussion.   https://www.tiktok.com/@nonds_academe?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc

    Send us a text One of the great treasures of being a lecturer is connecting with students. In this episode, I had a conversation with one of my brightest students, Asanele Ndevu. We spoke about the impact of COVID on her academic life, how she navigated racial tensions at her university, and how she overcame any academic challenges that came her way.  Asanele is wise and insightful. I hope you draw inspiration from her courage, light, and energy.   https://www.tiktok.com/@nonds_academe?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc

I also explain that the Hearsay podcast explores how to talk about the law in ways that feel more relatable and personal. This is important because the law affects all of us in so many ways!
