“This was the first legal podcast I started listening to and now they make up my entire library.
In my opinion, Above the Law covers way too much big law. I could not care less, given the high stakes climate consuming the legal world right now. Better for those with a more casual interest in...”Read full review »

“The whole thing is small talk, what even is small talk , idk anymore, but what I do know is that you can probably learn more law by watching 5 minutes of keeping up with the kardashians.”

“The small talk is mind-numbing. After 10-15 minutes of what did you do/eat/watch this weekend you get to actually hear legal analyis. Sorry but I unsubbed.”

“Immediately unsubscribed when Joe said hey we have an amazing episode for you but let’s ease into it with some chit chat. He literally says that. This is marketing 101 BIG NO. Get to the valuable content right away. What makes him think we want to listen to some guy named Joe who nobody knows nor...”Read full review »

“Longtime listener, since Elie and Joe. Electrician/“Sparky” by trade. Listening to the Legal Talk Network engages my mind in different ways and helps me to understand legalese (a little) AND the National Electrical Code(how to interpret). Love the banter. Left leaning for sure but with...”Read full review »

“Is this a zoom call or a podcast? Get my man an actual microphone! Joe and Kathryn’s audio is fine, but Chris’s mic quality has been a (for as long as he’s been a host) gripe/pet peeve of mine that I’ve had for awhile now.
I otherwise enjoy tuning in to get more nuanced or detailed takes on...”Read full review »

“Sound effects —> thumbs down
Don’t mind the liberal leaning. Data shows the more education you have, the more likely you are to be liberal. These are folks (Americans w/post grad degrees) in the upper 15% of Americans in terms of education so it’s no surprise and representative of their...”Read full review »

“I think that for the most part they give very sound opinions. They do at times show a strong political leaning. Not surprising. I will continue to listen for now. Unless it becomes Rachel Maddow unhinged, I think the information will outweigh the political bias.”

“Show is not representative of legal opinions or even educational on the law. The level of arrogance and political bias of the current hosts is astounding. And such bias is presented as the mainstream. Go listen to Advisory Opinion, it is much more fair, honest, educational, and entertaining.”
