Customer Reviews
5 for Legal, 3 for Tech.
There is some disparity in the audio levels between panellists. Charon QC in particular has his sound levels far too low. Listening to the podcast on my internal laptop speakers his contributions are barely audible. The contrast between Charon and David Allen Green’s audio is so marked as to necessitate constant alterations to the iPod volume.
Technical niggles aside; this podcast is informative, insightful and even entertaining. A must-subscribe for anyone with an interest in English law (and might I suggest that certain members of the current government would benefit from a subscription too).
Excellent listening
Consistently interesting and relevant for the British public. This is a window into the conversations of those most interested in and knowledgable on our law, explained for the layman when required. And presided over by the sleepy lion voice of Charon QC.
