Boozy’s Legal Funhouse, Episode 9: The Law is Bad for You

Welcome back for another episode of Boozy’s Legal Funhouse, a “recorded live, screw it” podcast where we discuss general law, the practice of law, specific cases, and legal news with a profane attorney and his friends.

In this episode Boozy’s joined by Tiago and Buddy, two other attorneys, for a roundtable discussion in which we pull back the curtain to talk about how the practice of law absolutely wrecks people – mentally, physically, and emotionally – health wise. 

Also, racist judges, eagle-eyed prosecutors, and rent-a-car false convictions.

WARNING:  This episode contains discussions of suicide.  Discretion advised.

We know that you have many questions regarding this virus, COVID-19, and how it may have an effect on your pending legal matters, your plans, hearings, bankruptcy payments, child support obligations, custody hearings, evictions, etc. We greatly appreciate you reaching out to us and providing us with the opportunity to address your questions as they arise. However, due to the sheer volume of calls and emails we have been receiving over the past month, our partners have all ascended from their well-stocked emergency bunkers and gathered six feet apart in the conference room to draft this open letter to reassure you:
