Looking forward to listening later. Can someone explain how this came about? it seems like a random subject for a podcast. When I heard about it I assumed it was for a Review a Wai.

Edit - wait is this a new yearbook? I thought they were talking about a 23 year old book :see_no_evil:

This is a new release.

Always enjoy hearing John and Dave converse on the LAW days.

Great interview!
