Warning: Sensitive Material: After a brief hiatus, we are starting back up with a guest of extraordinary courage -- to do the right thing in one of the highest profile trials in in recent years. She was the roommate of Mimi Haleyi Sparswith who accused Harvey Weinstein of sexual assualt. She is what is called a secondary witness and has testified in multiple trials against Weinstein. She describes how she was empowered to testify instead of being scared and felt it was a privilege. Join me in this extraordinary conversation with Liz Entin as she discusses the courage it took to be publicly discredited while trying to do the right thing in such a dark trial enviroment discussing the sensitive subject of sexual assualt.

Join me on our 60th episode as I talk to Magali Mercera, commercial litigator in Las Vegas, on how she approaches a cross examination of a shy and scared witness. She discusses how being aggressive during questioning can backfire in front of a jury. She also explains the need to be extremely flexible and patient with her adversary which is crucial in order to get the evidence she needs to prove her case.

In a rare two-person interview, I talk with co-founders of the nonprofit Impacted Survivors of Murder-Suicide (ISMS) and co-hosts of the Unspoken Grief Podcast. Both guests are loss survivors who turned unimaginable tragedy into purposeful advocacy after losing their brothers to murder-suicide. Together, Michael and Tina are reshaping the conversation around murder-suicide loss, offering understanding, advocacy, and hope through their work.
