I'm sorry which of us went to law school We don't have to work with any lawyer we don't want and that means you're fired.

Why is it only the witnesses must swear to tell the whole truth?

Why isn't the same oath administered to the attorneys?

And there he is, he's nothing.

It's the Emperor without clothes.

Welcome to opening Arguments.

The podcast where a comedian takes lawyers to court.

Don't take ethics advice from Alan Dershowitz.

Hello and welcome to opening arguments. This is episode, you know I think we're going with

one thousand and two. I think that's a good way to keep the number straight, keep it organized.

And I'll tell you for the first few episodes and into the foreseeable future. I'm just playing that intro like for me. I'm just like listening to that before I go. Boy I've missed it. I am really excited to bring you today's episode. This is an introduction to Matt Cameron. Matt will tell you about his

background so I don't need to go into it here, but he's an amazing guy doing great

work and this this recording is so good. I can't wait for you to hear all his stories. I also want to tell you that we had a little idea. There's so much going on. I've seen a lot of comments that people have really needed this show and there's so much news etc.

and while we had the first few episodes plotted out I was thinking

wait a minute why don't we just do some practice?

I mean Matt and I could always use more practice recording together just getting our feet wet we're

getting going and so I thought why don't we just record some current events rapid

response episodes Matt was already bursting with things he wanted to say about

stuff anyway and they're kind of practices. We won't

charge for them but they'll be on patreon.com slash law. The first one will be

up soon. We talked about this border bill, this impeachment. Matt takes us through the incredibly ridiculous articles of impeachment

that the Republicans drafted against New Yorkis.
