1
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 1: He looks to the trunk. They count one, two, three,

2
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,920
Speaker 1: The trunk pops open, and the spotlight of the trunk

3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: shines on the victim of this case. Let me start

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,960
Speaker 1: that again. I'm sorry, I'm gonna kill this bastard. I'm

5
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: gonna kill you, you fake tough guy. Join me, Katie

6
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 1: Fang as we take you inside the high stakes world

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: of mock trial competitions. Lack of evidence is not evidence.

8
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 1: Making assumptions does not mean that's the truth. Class Action

9
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: follows the drama of four teams fighting to win the

10
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: national championship. The other side was such a trash can

11
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: fire like a true trash can fire. First thing I

12
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: would inquiries, why do you want to become a lawyer?

13
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: We devoted twelve episodes of this podcast to that very question,

14
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: and we haven't gotten to the bottom of it yet.

15
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: With the journey to find out. It's a lot of

16
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: fun our worst human. I mean, what could be more

17
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: fun than a bunch of law students arguing with each

18
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: other all day and all nights. You like the control.

19
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm gonna stop you. You're on

20
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 1: a fishing expedition to nowhere. It all comes down to

21
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: for students and a coach or two in a room

22
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: working hard. The law is about the rules, but more

23
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: important than rules, it is something that is based on

24
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: principles and values of equal justice and fairness of process.

25
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: There's a lot of power in a legal degree. All

26
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: of a sudden, we take lawyers, they graduate law school,

27
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: and we expect them to walk into a courtroom and

28
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: talk about life and death and millions of dollars without

29
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: any practice or practical application of this. Think about music,

30
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: playing the violin in your basement and all of a sudden,

31
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: walking into Carnegie Hall one day and playing for the

32
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: first time. It would never happen in music, It would

33
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: never happen in sports. Why should it happen in law?

34
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:24,359
Speaker 1: What just happen? That many say? Then I asked that

35
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: you take all the testimony and evidence that was given

36
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: to you, ladies and gentlemen, and you come to the

37
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: only right verdict, the only Jeff verdict, and find the

38
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: defendant guilty. I hope my kids never do my child.

39
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 1: What are you listen to? Class Action? Starting June seven

40
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,480

41
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts.
