Rick does a great job of covering all the different aspects of how the law interacts with the following: gaming, streaming, purchasing, unionizing, Anti-Trust and game creation. On top of that, he even gives reviews on games he plays (as well as Star Wars and Marvel Movies). Entertaining and informative.
Great legal insight into entertainment legal issues

Like the updates and the reporting, I personally just need the reporting and from there I choose my standing on an issue. Could do without your point of view, but it is solid reporting. I just ignore when you start ranting.
Required listening!

It should be a law that before anyone opens their mouth on Twitter, they should be required to listen to the related episode here first. Rick covers almost everything, and he has really opened my eyes to the sometimes brutal underworld of video games and law. My mother always told me I should become a lawyer, I should have listed.
