  • Summary

  • Too Many Lawyers goes beyond the headlines about laws and court cases to tell listeners what developments in the law really mean, and how the stories impact real people. The hosts are each lawyers and legal analysts, but beyond that couldn’t be more different. One, Royal Oakes, is a libertarian, baby boomer and dad, who’s been offering analysis on network radio and television for decades; the other, Connor Oakes, is a progressive millennial and son of Royal Oakes, who offers a fresh take on the legal world. TML knows what podcast listeners want to hear about, and delivers – subjects include:--- Should America embrace Pete Buttigieg’s view, legalization of every drug, from grass, to meth, to heroin?--- Should the feds be bumping the tobacco purchase age to 21?--- Can we trust Twitter and Facebook to censor political opinions?--- Your devices are spying on you – should you go through life not trusting Alexa?--- The gig economy – do laws saying everybody with a side hustle is an “employee” help, or hurt?--- Should colleges be dumping SAT and ACT tests as a tool to fight discrimination? --- How can governments regulate “ghost guns” made by 3-D printers?--- Is facial recognition just another tool like fingerprints, or does it spell the end of privacy?--- Should Amazon face lawsuits for sales of unsafe products, when they just collect a slice as middleperson?

    WILL DEMOCRATS PRESSURE JUSTICE SONIA SOTOMAYOR TO QUIT, SO BIDEN CAN REPLACE HER BEFORE TRUMP 2.0?
    Nov 20 2024

    Hey they’ve got seven weeks before the GOP takes over the White House and the Senate. Dems are saying we can do this – Sotomayor quits, Biden nominates a replacement, and the Dem-controlled Senate installs her before January.

    One possible catch: SHE MAY NOT BE READY TO RETIRE. Biden’s likely response: Uh, you do remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg, right? DO YOU WANT THE CONSERVATIVES TO HAVE A 7-2 MAJORITY??

    Will Trump's Criminal Cases Continue Even If He Wins and Orders His New AG to Dismiss the Prosecutions?
    Nov 4 2024

    People assume that a Trump win means dismissal of the federal criminal cases pending against him.

    But, not so fast! When prosecutors agreed to drop charges against General Michael Flynn, the judge said no!

    Yes, judges may bring in new prosecutors to keep fighting, if the think “justice” or “public interest” requires it.
