Join us for our review and analysis of Ahsoka, part 6, "Far, Far Away." We take on whether there was a valid contract with Sabine and Baylon, if Thrawn was a third-party beneficiary who assumed the contractual obligations of Baylon, and if the Night Troopers had a legal duty to continue to serve the Empire.

We address the issues of the Jedi and Child Soldiers, whether Anakin committed Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress with Ahsoka’s Final Lesson, Hera and disobeying lawful orders, whether there was a Duty to Rescue Ahsoka, and if riding a space whale would violate the Marine Mammal Protection Act.

Recorded on July 20, 2023 at San Diego Comic Con! 

Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Lawsuit You throw me the idol, I throw you the whip, is the beginning of legal analysis for Dr. Indiana Jones. Did Indy and Marion Ravenwood have a valid partnership agreement to find the Ark of the Covenant? Did Satipo breach his fiduciary duty to Indiana at the Temple of the Chachapoyan Warriors? Does the insanity defense apply to anyone who drank the Blood of Kali? Did Germany actually declare war on Dr. Jones Senior and Junior? And if the US Government classifies the Ark of the Covenant as Top Secret, what is necessary to declassify it for a FOIA request? This is the time when a fedora is proper courtroom attire, so join our team of lawyers and judges for fortune and glory, featuring Circuit Judge John B. Owens (9th Circuit Court of Appeals), US Magistrate Judge Steve Chu, Christine Peek, Mark Zaid, Michael Dennis, and Joshua Gilliland. Presented by The Legal Geeks.

Let's start with the basics from episode 4: Assassinations are illegal. Framing a foreign country in order to start a war is fraud. Join us for our analysis of Secret Invasion, "Beloved."
