We joined friend and colleague Clint Schumacher for the milestone 50th episode of his essential Eminent Domain Podcast.
If you are not already a subscriber and regular listener, you should be. Clint features interesting guests (present company excepted) and listening in is a good way to keep our community together, especially when many of us may be feeling isolated and shut off from our friends and fellow property law travelers.
The 50th Episode is indeed a milestone. Anyone who has tried it knows that putting together a podcast is nowhere near as simple as you might think. Scheduling guests. Getting the sound right. Mixing boards. Editing it so the guest doesn't sound completely illiterate (thanks for removing the "you knows" and "uhhhhhs," Clint). Bumper music. So thank you Clint, for providing this service for the rest of us. (If you have any suggestions for guests or topics, be sure to send them Clint's way.)
Here's to many more episodes!
Now for the details of what we spoke about. Here are the show notes:
