125. Trust the Process
I'm joined by Duncan Davies, a returning guest on the show. Duncan is now nearing the end of first year law at Dal and talks to me about how it's all been. Bottom line: Property law is better than Criminal law (for him, not for me!).

124. BFFs
I'm joined by two returnees, Aashna and Sara, and another 1L student from their team, Rhea Sandhu. (As I quickly learn, it's actually The Team.) We talk about life as a 2L, how it's both the same and different from 1L. And even a little bit about Thomas Hobbes.

123. What We Do at Christmas
Richard is joined again by Aashna Mehta and Sara Mah. We're all lamenting the end of the winter break. You only get three in law school and then everything changes, so make the most of them.

122. It Makes You Tough
Richard is joined by Aashna Mehta, who was previously on the podcast in episode #120, and one of her good friends in law school, Sara Mah. Both were in his criminal law class in the fall of 2024. Friendship is such an important aspect of going to law school and we talk at length about that aspect.

121. Try, Try Again
We are joined by Duncan Davies, who has been admitted to Dalhousie Law school to start in the fall of 2025. Duncan and Richard know each other through his parents -- he's one of the few guests who is a prospective student. Duncan explains how he got to the position he is in now. It takes a lot of blood and sweat, but not too many tears.
