My podcast with Charon

By Jordan Furlong | September 10, 2009

I had the great pleasure this morning of recording a podcast with Mike Semple Piggot, better known as Charon QC, the well-known UK-based lawyer, law professor, raconteur, and indispensible member of the blawgosphere. I’ve listened to many of Charon’s podcasts with lawyers I admire, so it’s an honour for me to be asked to join that club. We had a great time during our 40-minute conversation, which touched on private equity in law firms, fixed-fee billing, legal education, outsourcing to India, and other subjects.

You can  hear the podcast at the Insite Law Magazine page, or connect to it through the Charon QC blog. My sincere thanks to Mike for the invitation — I hope you enjoy the podcast as much as we enjoyed recording it.

      I don’t know how long this has been going on, but some courts are sending judgments to CanLII with hyperlinked tables of contents. Plain old text TOCs are nothing new, of course: long — long, long. […]
