This week on IP Goes Pop!, Joseph Gushue, Shareholder with Volpe Koenig, joins fellow Shareholder Michael Snyder to talk about IP “urban legends.” What is an IP urban legend? That would be misinformation circulating about patents, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secrets that sounds right, but is not quite right (certainly not from a legal standpoint).
In this episode, Michael and Joe surveyed colleagues, friends, and family and collected their IP urban legends and questions. With the help of Joe’s encyclopedic knowledge of pop culture, Michael and Joe try to set the record straight.

This week IP Goes Pop! watches Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness, the extremely popular Netflix documentary series about self-titled Joe Exotic. Joining Michael this week is fellow Volpe Koenig shareholder, John O’Malley, head of the firm’s Trademark Group. 

They skip the well-traveled discussion of intrigue and innuendo and focus on the intellectual property issues that eventually led to Joe Exotic losing control of the Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park (a.k.a. the G. W. Zoo).
