A podcast about law to learn more about people. Every episode goes behind the scenes of a case with the lawyer who argued it, and sometimes the judge who decided it.

Where's That Sound Coming From Presents: Questions But No Answers with Brian Marchese
Where's That Sound Coming From?
Dateline December 30 2023. The spinoff is now the main event. Welcome to Where's That Sound Coming From Presents: Questions But No Answers! Yes, WTSCF has become what might be the only podcast centered on the musical career of a person whom I consider to be one of the most creative, if underrated and misunderstood, musical minds of the mid-late 20th Century: the late, great Michael Nesmith. I made a list of 75 songs he recorded between 1965-2016 which I feel support my opinion (mostly origin ...

36:20Most people imagine undue influence as overt manipulation: a domineering child, a vulnerable parent, and a will that suddenly changes. But the reality, undue influence often looks like routine caregiving. That’s what made Abbruzzese v Tucci so striking. At first glance, it looked like a typical estate dispute.
