FEAR AND LOATHING IN JUSTICE: CONVERSATIONS WITH A FORMER...
A former prosecutor turned civil rights attorney sits down for some real talk, no BS (alright a dash of BS). We present an honest and entertaining exploration of the American criminal justice system and the inequities within, both the well-known and the inside baseball stuff. The guest list is a cross-section of all the players in the system, consisting of impressive, or at least funny, trial attorneys, current and former prosecutors, top shelf criminal defense attorneys, big firm corporate lawyers, civil rights lawyers, a legendary homicide prosecutor, and a reformed criminal. The conversations and war stories range from the philosophical, like the inequities inherent in a system where more money equals more due process, or an honest assessment of whether the goals of incarceration are met in any way (spoiler alert: no chance), to the silly--soulless sociopaths who fart on the subway or favorite Sopranos' characters. Pop culture references and questionable potty humor notwithstanding, we think there's some eye (ear) opening content that, at times, may even be important to share with y'all.
REVOLUTION OF ONE
Revolution of One is about the change that begins with you. There is nothing more powerful than individual people who are free to set their own path and take charge of their own lives. But we also recognize that simply being free to make your own choices is not enough. Just knowing where you want to go doesn't give you everything you need to get there. That's why Revolution of One is so important. Revolution of One will help you bring your dreams into reality with practical, actionable advice based on our nearly 75 years of experience in economics and entrepreneurship education. We will show you how to think like an entrepreneur, how to find meaning in your work at every stage of your career, and how to unlock incredible opportunities for personal and financial success by focusing on creating value for everyone around you. Our mission is to convince as many people as we can that they have the permission and the power to be the dominant creative force in their own lives. Join the Revolution and get ready to be inspired.
THE NEW BUREAUCRAT
The New Bureaucrat, is a serious – and sometimes not so serious – look at the inside job of transforming government. You will meet and get to know people, people like you, people who are changing how government works. We’ll talk about the struggle, the obstacles, the commitment it takes to persist. The New Bureaucrats have one thing in common, they are focused on results. Demonstrable, measurable results. Results that matter. And all of them are successfully applying business concepts, tools, and methods -- to the work government. The host, John M. Bernard, is the author of GOVERNMENT THAT WORKS, THE RESULTS REVOLUTION IN THE STATES.
