This is my go to podcast for law and it’s definitely enriched my life as a law student. When Biden was president the episodes were really great but since trump got elected it’s veered towards news, political opinions and lost focus on what makes it so interesting which is legal experts discussing the fine points of innovative legal topics. I used to listen back to the episodes but now i find myself skipping half of it because frankly the trump rants the guests indulge in are repetitive and lack nuance. What makes legal compelling is the ability to tell both sides of an issue - please June don’t let this podcast turn into a nonstop partisan kvetch. I beg.

over last few months the volume difference between commercials, the host, and the guest have become a distraction making it difficult to listen to. At times to hear the guest requires a doubling in volume from when the host is speaking.

This podcast is very interesting, I just wish I could understand it better. The guests sound muffled and are often hard to understand. There must be ways to improve this, since it’s not an issue on other podcasts with guests, like Up First and The Daily.

Guest speaker Professor David Cole just provides more evidence of how much the left has lost the plot. You can’t serve in the military if you have depression, anxiety, anorexia, and a whole host of other (relatively common) conditions. Yet having a profound incongruence between your sex and your self-perception of your gender, such that you feel it necessary to get surgery to resemble the opposite sex and take cross-sex hormones somehow isn’t a medical condition that would perhaps complicate military readiness? Similarly focusing only on the safety of transgender women in prison and not the cases of women being raped by transgender women in prison (of which there are many examples) isn’t of concern? Similarly the focus on the feelings of transgender women who want to play in the female sport category and not on the women who lose out on sports scholarships and the opportunity to compete on a level playing field because of the lie we tell ourselves that taking estrogen can erase the advantages of going through male puberty. Instead of having an honest conversation about the concerns on both sides, they fall back on their tired playbook of pretending that the only people who could have concerns about these things are bigots who are filled with hate and “animus.” We (and judging by how the last US election went, the majority of the electorate) are sick of it.

These episodes are really digestible, fun, interesting and topical. My only complaint is the audio. June’s audio is perfectly clear, but the guest audio is often fuzzy and garbled, and at a much different volume than June. So you need to blast it to make out what the guest is saying, but then June is uncomfortably loud. Can’t they hire a mixing person? It feels bizarrely low budget.

If you're looking for a progressive echo chamber, you've found it.

Thank you! Ms. June, you gave us wonderful insights and very knowledgeable guests each episode. I do look forward to a new episode each night. Our son is an attorney and he looks forward to listening whenever he has time too. Thanks again and keep up the good job.

If you’re interested in stories aimed only at the right with a one-sided analysis and leading questions dialed up by June Grasso to elicit her desired responses, then this is your show. This isn’t a serious legal podcast because its host is unable to muster even the veneer of honest analysis and inquiry into carefully curated topics shamelessly selected to bludgeon the right.

You're telling me these brilliant legal minds can't manage purchasing a decent microphone for recording? Detail-oriented or detailed-disaster? (June is a wonderful host!)

I enjoy law and prefer unbiased “news” podcasts, this is about one, but does not come close to the other. I enjoy listening to as many perspectives as possible, this is simply a Legal Perspective from the Left, unabashedly. As I said, I like multiple perspectives and that is found on other legal podcasts, this is what it is. You will notice episodes are of higher quality when there are substitute hosts.

Bloomberg for the most part is a balanced news organization with a few outliers. June Grasso is one of those outliers. She wears her prejudices on her sleeve. Reports on matters before the courts deserves a more balanced coverage.

She always slants the interview. Bloomberg is doing its audience a disservice by having her. If she cannot represent or report on both sides of the Supreme Court with neutrality, then she needs to go. Her questions are half baked.

Interesting content and well-presented. Worth your time.

So much great content for current legal cases, but I’m amazed at the poor audio of so many guests. Some may be recording under less than perfect circumstances, but do a sound check and ask them to adjust their mics! And please don’t have guests with vocal fry — that’s when I turn off the pod.

Why can’t a multi-million or billion dollar company figure out how to adjust the volume on their guest speakers?! The audio is too low for every single guest. Audio is fine for the host. It’s so bad that I can’t listen in the subway at all.

Review after review points this out and yet it continues. Invest in this podcast because it could be soooo good 😊

Never hear the guest speak.

Very high on my mandatory list

I like learning about the stories and June Grasso is a great host. Some of the guests are very good and some are a little boring but most of these I love to listen to. The audio used to be bad, going from loud to quiet between speakers and always loud when the ads play. They seem to have fixed that. Sometimes the audio gets chopped badly when a chunk is missing or a snippet goes back a few seconds and replays on its own. But that doesn’t happen often.

Content is good but I can barely hear what the guests are saying. Please fix the audio so we can fully enjoy the podcast.

I was wondering recently why I listen less to your podcast and then I realized why when I heard the podcast on Bret Kavanaugh. It was so bias it was very difficult to listen to. How many times can one say “ very, very conservative “.

The audio quality of the callers is egregious. I can barely hear them sometimes. Otherwise a great podcast!

Audio quality nearly ruins this pod!

Audio engineering is awful on this podcast, which is such a shame because the content is great. Have to jack up volume for interviewees in almost every episode.

Noticeable bias and unbalanced reporting on SCOTUS confirmation hearings. Case content is informative. However, there still remains noticeable unbalanced views.

I wonder if Bloomberg has the knowledge of Constitutional Law : Deprivation of Rights Title 18 Under Color of Law?? Interesting that so many aren’t aware of that law and the consequences from minor to the most heinous. Audiopedia’s definition of Power Harassment and Family Matters Law group parental rights of unwed parents. The mother has full custody upon birth. If the father, as an example doesn’t go to court to establish paternity then any actions to go near the mother and child is considered very serious including among many other very serious charges attempting kidnapping, bodily harm etc…

If all sides agree there is no legal dispute. When they don’t agree there are at least two sides. June Grasso interviews mostly law professors who provide the leftist perspective on the dispute. Since that is not the only perspective the podcast does little to advance understanding. The only way to truly understand a legal dispute is to know all sides of the issue. Lately June has gone so far off the hyper partisan ledge that her show no longer offers any value.

For cases reviewed it would be good to have one conservative and one liberal legal expert to come at an issue from both sides and give the listener better insights into what the court is thinking/doing rather than a biased one sided view

Anthony Oncidi was a terrible guest. No one needs to hear about how mad he is that victims of sexual harassment and assault will get justice. Keep him and other FedSoc bros off this pod, if you want to maintain some semblance of credibility.

Best show and true information about the law June Grasso has been doing a great job.

Listening to episode about the Liz Holmes trial, got an advert by another medical company which seems to have a similar sort of business model loaded with murky buzzwords and lofty promises. It’s hilarious and I love it. This is just our world, the world we’ve created for ourselves.

As many others have mentioned, the content is great and very informative, however the sound design is terrible. Ads play at 3x the volume of the host and call in guests can barely be heard sometimes. For such a large company this is a shame and easily fixed. I hope they do soon.

they have guests call in over the telephone and it’s awful. i have to wear headphones to understand them.

Fire your sound person. Or hire a sound person. Just so long as my ears don’t get blown out anymore. It’s a great show with a great host, topics, and guests. But the actual experience is atrocious. EQ is day one intro to production basics.

All program introduction and segments bumper music resembles and 60,s Batman episode , live AM radio introduction and segment music are overall loud and over take the content! I personally was an audio technician for local cable network, I bear witness to periodically substituting program introduction sound tracks . Bloomberg has a need for program introduction that is easygoing and program specific recognition, present audio is nothing more than noise , percussion rich loud and non programming specific. I am available ! A long time over the air wave and internet services consumer, will someone please raise this issue with your Program Directors responsible for audio overlay! Batman and Robin sounded ok in 1969 not appropriate today . I will wait for response, I will advise and suggest in person if possible! I support Bloomberg communication company completely! Ted @ my email

This podcast has sound effects that are much louder than the content. In the episode about the EU fight with Hungary and Poland, the “woosh” sound between segments was so loud it hurt my ears. They had the same issue with ads. That reflects laziness of the producers. It’s easy to equalize the volume.

This is probably the best podcast available for law. It reaches the best experts around the country for in-depth, comprehensive and yet relatively digestible commentary. But PLEASE ASK THE SOUND ENGINEER to turn down the volume of the sound effects. It’s so loud compared to the voices. Between segments there’s this swoosh sound which makes my ears bleed. Similarly the music at the top is way too loud. But keep doing your thing substantively, it’s great.

Very informative, with interesting perspectives on the major legal issues of the day, and I think it’s done so fairly. June Grasso is a phenomenal host; curious and probing, taking the spot of the listener in a way that is just really wonderful. I wish she hosted more podcasts.

June Grasso is an experienced host/interviewer. Great guests provide in-depth analysis!

Love the content. Surprised to read all the reviews saying the show skews left. I would have said the opposite.

Informative and Concise! Thank you!!!

The analysis of legal issues rarely is balanced which warps the show. Basically a Democratic Party organ

Who was the sound engineer? Sounded like your guest was dialing in from the moon. Couldn’t understand half the things she was saying...

The commentator interviewed in « DOJ Wants to Take Over Trump Defamation Defense » incorrectly states that Judge Kaplan is the Chief Judge of the Southern District of New York. That position is currently held by Judge McMahon. Still, five stars.

Tried to listen… Unfortunately, Partisan like most Bloomberg podcasts. Duh.

Yesterday’s episode with Bradley Moss was an embarrassment. When I listen in to Bloomberg, I expect a left leaning bias. But, I think it’s time for Bloomberg to decide whether this show is news or opinion. To sit through 30 minutes of Mr Moss hammering AG Barr was a total waste of time. Please do not have him as a guest again. Totally one sided with no nuance whatsoever. I expect far more from Bloomberg Law.

The takes and choice of legal pundits is too slanted, too TDS.

Law podcast gone left!

It’s a great way for keeping tabs on current developments.

The podcast used to cover interesting legal issues in a neutral way, but that changed dramatically over the last few years. Now, June speaks with guests from a singular viewpoint and covers only political topics. She barely asks questions; instead, she makes breathless statements with which the guests then agree. And on top of that, June offers no insightful analysis. I’m not sure if she’s always been a blind partisan without any real insight on the law, but the last few years have certainly revealed her as such.
