Kate discusses the #FreeBritney movement with Rebecca Grant, a licensed probate attorney who is a subject matter expert on conservatorships. Kate aims to further understand why Britney's situation is so unique and at times, suspicious. Additionally, she fact checks of a lot of the questions she has about the speculation, memes, and twitter threads. For example: What can and can't a conservator force her to do? Is she being forced to work? Why can't she hire her own attorney? Why would they check the dementia box for a 26-year-old woman? How is she, now 38, still in this incredibly restrictive conservatorship and deemed to be incapacitated, yet appear to work, tour, rehearse, run an empire, etc. successfully? All this and more on this 2-part Be There in Five Deep Dive!

0:26.3 | In case you didn't catch this, so my business name and the podcast and my Instagram |
0:32.8 | handle is Be There In Five every day. Somebody's like, Beth, I am your biggest fan. I'm like, |
0:38.2 | are you? Because my name is not Beth Aaron five. It's Kate, but I understand. I get it, |
0:43.3 | honestly, I get it. I honestly, I just, it's my alter ego, my monolisa, if you will, |
0:49.0 | which we will get to because I did forget to bring up original doll. We went high level |
0:53.4 | over what a conservatorship is and like speculation surrounding it, some of the high points, |
0:59.0 | and then kind of did a timeline to illustrate what happened leading up to 2008 when this |
1:06.4 | conservatorship started. The reason I focused on that first is because I do think that is |
1:13.8 | the context being left out of a lot of the more viral meme type things that are being |
1:19.7 | shared about free Brittany. And I'm not saying anybody deserves to have their constitutional |

1:51.2 | that and or did this trigger mental illness, you know, like I think there's an element that can |
