Welcome to the third episode of Without Prejudice: Tonight, I am afraid, I can’t tell you about our guest… in fact, the superinjunction is so harsh, I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of a guest… but…. I can tell you that David Allen Green and Carl Gardner are at the table…. waiting to discuss libel, privacy, hyperinjunctions, Rough Justice – Miscarriages of Justice, The Lautsi v Italy crucifix case, and we may even have time to discuss expert immunity from suit…and interns.
Listen to the podcast
[ In the miscarriage of justice part of the podcast: I did mean – “I’d rather see a guilty person getting off than an innocent person going to prison”… not the other way around – My apologies. (I do have to listen very carefully – I do research and read in to subjects, but I never write prepared questions for any podcasts – I got it the wrong way around tonight) ]

I have thoroughly enjoyed the content of all three editions of “without prejudice” to date. However, the most excellent content of said casts is destroyed by seriously sub-standard audio integrity. My colleagues & I are hooked up to some good audio gear – have to be, given one aspect of our employment – and this latest cast, with some kind of drop-out glitch every ten seconds or so on top of the plastered wall/lack of presence etc. – is almost impossible to listen to (such a shame). Could I respectfully suggest you flatten down the acoustics of the recording environment as a priority? The discussions are so so good – it just seems a shame to potentially miss out on subscribers (not to mention guests) as a result of relatively easily resolved production values.
Nothwithstanding the above I remain (in Rioja & Marlboro) your humble servant.
