This week’s show opens with an announcement on the podcast’s future, so give it a listen and see what’s coming! We can’t wait.

For our last show prior to the summer break, we sped through several issues including the White House stepping in to block non-compete clauses, Amazon’s backtracking on its dispute resolution process after customers found an innovative way to make the e-commerce giant squirm, and speaking of ’giant’, a massive inflatable rat has landed in court in the United States!

Tech companies have been experimenting with changes to their working styles, with some opting for more flexibility and others demanding employees return to the office. Twitter is focusing, instead, on the vernacular around remote work. In fact, the social network doesn’t even like the term ’remote work’ because it’s not inclusive enough (which left us scratching our heads). You might be surprised what they prefer instead.

In Check This Out, Ewan looks at a documentary that looks back on the disaster that was Woodstock ’99, while Cam looks back as well (much further) on the life of Joan Rivers and how she’s viewed today in light of the #MeToo movement.

A podcast that dives deep into the world of news, scandals, conflicts, and embarrassments each week, then dissects it from a legal and PR point of view. Along the way, there's a lot of practical legal and PR information that people can actually use. It's recorded live each week from Hong Kong and Toronto.

We also love to take questions! Whether it's about employment law, PR, or anything else, just tag us on social media with #PRLawPod and we'll answer your question on the show.

The podcast is published each week on Sunday afternoon Eastern Time / Monday morning in Hong Kong.
