Summary

On today's episode Co-hosts Eric Bland and Mandy Matney got to interview one of our favorite guests so far on this show… Vinnie Politan of Court TV. Politan is an Emmy winning journalists AND a former prosecutor who combines his journalistic talents with his legal knowledge to cover some of the craziest cases in the American court system. We have always liked Vinnie Politan’s Court TV coverage of the Murdaugh case because he was one of the few people on TV to tell it like it is and call out all of the absurdities. We had a great time talking with Vinnie about the never-ending Murdaugh saga and Vinnie is actually very familiar on the latest case our team is diving into – the Colucci trial set for this May. Premium Members get access to a longer segment on Vinnie's background and younger days. Let's get into it...
