So if you've never read the book before, or you think it's time for a re-read grab a copy and download the show. Oh and hey, don't be worried this show won't be over your head even if you're a brand new to the craft of programming.

After over three decades in the legal-trenches, Mike Bassett has learned to appreciate two things: good conversation & good coffee. Legal Grounds is an ongoing series of interviews with the people who are shaping our world - legal or otherwise. Witty, irreverent, & always thoughtful, these brief discussions fall somewhere between “Night Court” & Hopper’s “Nighthawks At The Diner”. With that in mind, we promise your coffee will still be warm when the podcast is done. (Legal Grounds was writte ...

Send us a text Of the many many books I used to read to my sons, there are only a few that I could confidently recall, but a family favorite was (and remains) “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.” No matter what age, it’s good to be reminded that some days are just going to suck, and in a lot of cases - just like Alexander …

Send us a text Jokes about lawyers and technology are one of those things that tend to write themselves, but in my conversation this week with Karl Seelbach I walked away thinking about how the days of being a tech-averse profession may very well be coming to an end. A seasoned litigator, Karl is also the founder of SKRIBE AI, a software platform f…

Send us a text When it comes to watching any sort of legal drama, be it television or film, most - if not all - of the scenes that take place inside the courtroom focus on either the lawyers, the judge, or the witness. But when it comes to the jury, we tend to only see them during opening or closing remarks, and even then they almost always act mor…

Send us a text While I know there isn’t any science to back it up, somewhere in my 30’s I remember hearing the “Fact” that if you could do something for 30 days straight then - BOOM - it’s a habit. A sort of accelerated version of ‘practice makes perfect’. In reality, it’s often the spaces, people, and organizations we find ourselves immersed in th…

Send us a text One of the questions we ask every potential new hire at our firm is when your laundry comes out of the dryer, how long does it take you to put it away? There is no right or wrong answer to the question, but the responses - I hope - give me a sense of how someone will process new work when it comes their way. This gives not just me, b…

Send us a text This week's episode is a conversation about what it takes to keep having tough conversations. What was once the poster-child for corporate and social responsibility, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts are now either underfunded, swept away quietly, or, in some corners, vilified. We've talked at length on this podcast about the …

Send us a text Fear of flying is one of the most common phobias in the U.S., but my guest today knew he wanted to spend his life in the air the moment his dad let him climb into a cockpit. But, a fear of heights and claustrophobia are probably the last two things you’d want if your dream was to become a fighter-pilot. And yet my guest today endured…

Send us a text One of, if not THE most insidious aspects of depression is how it convinces you that reaching out for help is a fool's errand. The stories we tell ourselves in those moments are often as dark as they are wrong, but thankfully very few of us will have to wrestle with these kinds of demons in full view of the public. My guest today, ho…

Send us a text If I had to boil down this week’s episode to one word it would be Control. Like we talked about in last week’s episode, when it comes to mediators, too often the job is perceived as “controlling” two diametrically opposed parties; the idea being that in choosing what information to share and how to share it, mediators hold all the ca…

Send us a text The obligation that attorneys have to zealously represent their clients is, as my guest today puts it, “like walking a razor’s edge between perfection and disaster.” For the first 15 years of his career it was a job that Jeff Kichaven excelled at, but as he himself admits in our conversation today, it is incredibly taxing. After disc…

Send us a text While both are unavoidable, when it comes to Death and Taxes a majority of us never have to navigate bureaucracies when it comes to the former. For me, Capital Punishment has always been an interesting choice of language in that it implies that the act of dying is a punishment in & of itself; “capital” simply acts as a modifier for h…

Send us a text This week my guest is author, coach, and corporate veteran, Sherry Buckley-Brown. Having just released her memoir, "Who Will Take Care of Me Now", Sherry and I discuss the tragic loss of her mother, the beautiful relationship she developed with her grandmother, and the ups and downs in between. After earning an MBA and working in lea…

Send us a text My guest today has been preaching about the potential power of tech in the legal sphere since the earliest days of social media. Nicole Black began her legal career as a Public Defender, conducting countless hearings, jury trials, bench trials, and depositions, in matters both civil and criminal. But in 2008 she began covering the in…

Send us a text In 2021, the Bloomberg Law Survey reached a sobering milestone. For the first time, attorneys reported feeling stressed about their workload more than HALF of the time. Setting aside the very serious and very real consequences to one’s health, when your profession is one that bills by the hour, spending half of that time in “damage-c…

Send us a text If you’ve ever found yourself pulling into your driveway only to realize you meant to stop at the grocery store on the way home, you know how easy it is for the brain to run on autopilot And while forgetting you needed to pick-up a couple of ingredients for dinner is always a bummer, when leaders find themselves running on autopilot,…

Send us a text This week we welcome Serban Mare back to the program. Last time we spoke, Serban and I discussed his life story and really focused on how trust is the foundation to any working relationship. But what listeners didn’t know was that we had an entire section of the interview that we simply ran out of time on. And - perhaps ironically - …

Send us a text My guest this week is Dave Obrand, a fellow attorney and Deputy County Counsel out of Orange County. What attracted me to Dave was not simply the work he does helping to reunite families, but the story of his OWN family and the power to grow through grief. While not giving away the entire episode, after graduating from law school, Da…

Send us a text For this week’s episode I was lucky enough to sit down with the Assistant Managing Editor of the ABA Journal, Victor Li, for one of the most wide-ranging discussions on the law we’ve had on this show in a while. As a writer focusing on Legal Technology and the Business of Law, it was a great chance to get the pulse of what’s happenin…

Send us a text Twelve Wooden Stirring Spoons. Twelve. That’s the number Liz and I unearthed the first time we decided to give Minimalism a try. We had both just read the book, “The More of Less” written by my guest today, Joshua Becker, founder of Becoming Minimalist. The book explained how Minimalism wasn’t just a novel series of systems or routin…

Send us a text In last week's episode we looked back on the “standard practices” that the pandemic shifted from in-person to virtual spaces. So for this week's episode it only seems appropriate that we look forward with someone who has been moving the practice of law away from brick-and-mortar operations since before the pandemic forced our collect…

Send us a text For this week’s episode I had the absolute pleasure of talking with veteran attorney, now full-time mediator, Jean Lawler. Mediation now makes up around 30% of my practice, and as you’ll be able to tell from today’s conversation, it’s something I’ve truly come to love. What really broke open this week’s conversation for me was Jean’s…

Send us a text As we start off the new year, there’s a good chance you’ve chosen one or two areas of life that you’d like to work on “changing” for the better. While it’s no secret that we at Legal Grounds are big fans of self-improvement, I think there is a real danger in ALWAYS moving forward. As anyone who has done Deep Work can tell you, it’s e…

Send us a text As the end of 2023 draws closer, there is a good chance that if you’re reading this you’re already starting to think about what changes you want to make in the new year. For most of us it will be something meaningful but probably not always something major - after all, nearly all research points to the fact that making a drastic chan…

Send us a text As we come up on the Holidays, there’s a good chance you’re scrambling for at least one last-minute gift. It’s such a cliche that it’s become a comedic trope, but behind the joke is the very heartfelt fact that we don’t want others to feel left out. But instead of thinking about the things we get from others, I want to reflect on wha…

Send us a text When it comes to any sort of formal training, it’s easy for leaders to lose sight of the fact that there is an unavoidable power dynamic. And as the person who ‘knows’ what they're doing, having to correct or explain what seems obvious is a recipe for frustration - no matter how good the leader. But while getting frustrated is a natu…

Send us a text We talk a lot on the show about the risks we have to take if we want to develop ourselves both professionally and personally. We use phrases like "taking a leap of faith" or "hit the ground running" to describe the uncertainty and urgency that comes with those risks, but for most of us they don't carry any actual physical danger. Now…

Send us a text If you're a regular consumer of podcasts, chances are at least one show in your feed has an episode this week centered around "surviving the holidays". And while I know that people lead complex lives, in all of my experiences, a lot of the stress and 'pain' associated with big gatherings like Thanksgiving is for the most part self-in…

Send us a text As you’ve heard me joke about before, even though I did a little bit of medical malpractice work at the very beginning of my legal career, my high school science grades all but guaranteed it would be a short-lived endeavor. That being said, when it comes to the kinds of major trucking accidents that our firm deals with, understanding…

Send us a text For those of you who know your history - or your motivational quotes - then you know that Teddy Roosevelt's, "Man In the Arena" speech is considered one of the best observations on the nature of persistence. But there is another Roosevelt quote from Teddy's distant cousin, Franklin, and it came to mind after this week's conversation.…

Send us a text There has been no shortage of headlines about the devastating impact that ransomware can have on an organization – big or small. And if you’re a fellow Texan, there’s a good chance you heard about the recent, and massive attack that essentially crippled the city of Dallas. And yet when it comes to the world of technology, so many lea…

Send us a text This week’s episode brings us to the end of our four-part series with Perry S. Kaufman on Fork in the Road moments. For our first three episodes, we aimed to show founders and leaders how planning for the future is an essential tool for operating in the present. In our final conversation, Perry and I take a look back at some of the k…

Send us a text Under the banner of, “Finding the Silver Lining,” I think one of the most important things that came out of the pandemic was an acceleration of the already occurring destigmatization of mental illness. Now again, that’s a silver lining. Not just because of the sheer toll the pandemic took in human lives, but because as my guest today…

Send us a text WARNING: this weeks episode contains discussions of sexual violence. I won’t lie to you folks, this week’s episode is a tough one, but I also think it might be the hard conversation someone just might need to hear. This week my guest is Sonny Von Cleveland, Director of The Von Cleveland Foundation, a non-profit organization that upli…

Send us a text This week's episode is the third part in our series with Perry S. Kaufman about the Fork in the Road moment for leaders. Perry is the founder of PSK consulting, a firm that specializes in working with founder-led companies. When he last joined us we discussed what it looks like when it comes to transitioning a business to the next le…

Send us a text It’s so easy in this age of having access to everything – all the time - to get pulled in a million directions without even realizing it. And I’ll be the first person to raise their hand and admit I have fallen trap to it. But as my guest today reminds us, the world gets smaller when you’re doing a million things. Now, if you’re like…

Send us a text This upcoming weekend is Labor Day, and hopefully you’ve got some fun plans (or no plans!) in your future. I know I always appreciate federal holidays because it’s a lot easier for me to disconnect when everyone else isn’t available either. But for a lot of leaders in my generation, and certainly in the one before mine, these holiday…

Send us a text Right before recording this podcast, I was in the big-fat-middle of preparing for trial. I wasn't in full "Game On" mode, but the possibility of spending my next three weeks in a courtroom wasn't negligible. And even though I've been doing this for nearly 4 decades, every time I sit down to prep for a case there will come a point whe…

Send us a text It's fairly obvious why judging someone based on their appearance is a bad idea. After all, the adage, "don't judge a book by its cover," is one that has stuck around since 1860 - no easy feat. As leaders, when we label a person, the first thing we're doing is taking away their agency in our perception of who they are as a person. Bu…

Send us a text My late mother taught me that there were three things that you never brought up in polite company: Politics Religion Money Now, I'd argue that in social situations these are still best-practices. but what's interesting is those first two... well, they're not so 'taboo' any more. Now, I don't have the numbers to back it up, but I thin…

Send us a text Starting a new business is not for the faint of heart. The confidence, courage, and work ethic it takes to get something off the ground is nothing less than herculean. But once a business is off the ground and things are going well, every owner will - hopefully - hit what we’re calling The Fork in the Road. A point where it comes tim…

Send us a text We talk a lot on this podcast about what it takes to be a lawyer of impact; a rainmaker intent on helping others thrive. But here’s the deal… Not everyone wants to be a partner. Not everyone wants the corner office. Some people want practicing law to be a job not their entire life. And guess what? THAT’S OK. As my guest today points …

Send us a text If it feels like we touch a lot on the myths surrounding the legal profession it is because there are many, and because they often contain at least some elements of truth. Just think of the stereotypes of The Ambulance Chaser with a desk full of papers in an office that’s too small. Or the Righteous D.A. who always knows the right th…

Send us a text Over the past three years we’ve talked a lot about the growing-pains the legal profession has endured as it experienced a seismic shift in technology. This shared experience of fumbling our way in the dark (see: Lawyer Cat) was humanizing, but even once we all got the hang of it, my guest today was already wondering if we could stick…

Send us a text There are some leadership experiences that most of us will never find ourselves in. And often, it’s those experiences that can provide the most valuable lessons a leader could ask for…and never wanted to learn. In 1968, at the age of 22, Robin Bartlett assumed the leadership of the 1st Platoon, A Company, 1st Battalion, 5th Cavalry, …

Send us a text This past Monday was Memorial Day, a day for remembering those who have given their lives in the service of this country. Many of us, especially those privileged enough to have a 3-day weekend, used the time to gather with friends and family. It is a solemn Holiday that has also somehow become the unofficial beginning of Summer, and …

Send us a text When I first started this podcast I never thought I would have the range of guests I’ve been lucky enough to talk to over the past couple of years. Getting to learn what leadership looks like in fields outside my own has taught me that, while leadership is going to look different in every setting, good leadership has qualities that a…

Send us a text If you’ve ever watched a professional football game then you know that about 70% of the time when they cut to a shot of a coach there’s a clipboard or tablet in front of their face. And if you’re in anyway familiar with the game, you know it’s not because they’re all nearsighted but because they are THAT concerned with keeping their …

Send us a text I often joke on the show that a lot of people my age have the "these kids today..." mentality. But like a lot of humor there is a strong undercurrent of truth, and so my hope has always been that leaders will eventually see that this mentality is not just foolish, but also pretty dang silly. And to further complicate things, as my gu…
