I found this show at the beginning of the Nicholas Kassotis trial and thoroughly enjoyed the coverage and analysis. I’m looking forward to learning what trial the ladies will cover next. Whatever it is, one thing is for sure, I’m here for it!

I find that I prefer Margot’s episodes. She seems more polished and professional.
Tabitha used terms like “disco biscuit” and “holy guacamole” while discussing a horrific murder trial. I also need to listen to Tabitha’s episodes at 1.25 speed. I agree with other commenters that it’s unusual to just play unedited courtroom audio and then follow it up with very little analysis. The volune on the courtroom audio is also at a different level than the rest of the pod.
Overall, this could be good I... more

Didn’t like listening to defending Raul Valle. Just tell the story, we don’t need to hear how your teenage fight story clouded your current thinking. You bring a knife to a fist fight that you started then you intend to stab people
