Episode 94, the National Archives Edition


Welcome to the only roundtable podcast in compliance. The entire gang was also recently honored by W3 as a top talk show in podcasting. In this episode, we have the full gang of Jonathan Marks, Karen Woody, Jonathan Armstrong, Tom Fox, Matt Kelly and Jay Rosen. We discuss a potpourri of issues. We conclude with our fan favorite Shout Outs and Rants.

  1. Karen Woody reviews the recent HeadSpin SEC enforcement action, explaining how the SEC has jurisdiction over a private company, the significance of an enforcement action with no fine or penalty and the corporate governance issues involved. Karen shouts out to the Super Bowl Halftime show for throwing love on 90s music and musical stars.
  1. Jay Rosen discusses the recently released Commission on Combatting Synthetic Opioid Trafficking Report. Rosen shouts out to celebrity chef Jose Andreas for creating the Gazpacho Police in the 1990s long before Marjorie Green Taylor accused Nancy Pelosi of doing so and for inviting Rep. Taylor to join, provided she is vaccinated and wears a mask to the restaurant.
  1. Matt Kelly looks at the Joe Rogan and Spotify imbroglio, focusing the attempts of Spotify CEO Daniel Ek to focus the spotlight on Rogan and not Spotify. Kelly shouts out to that unknown US criminal enforcement agency, the National Archives which raided Mar-A-Lago where the former President had purloined some 15 boxes of Presidential papers and materials. He also gives a minor shout out to New York Times columnist Maggie Haberman who in an upcoming book reported the former President flushed documents down the toilets at the White House.
  1. Jonathan Marks discusses continuous controls monitoring and continuous auditing as best practices for compliance, risk management and fraud prevention programs. Marks shouts out to the Philadelphia 76ers for getting rid of Ben Simmons who refused to play for them. He implores Simmons to get a new agent for his disastrous handling of the entire situation.
  1. Jonathan Armstrong discusses the civil verdict for HP in its case against Autonomy and the Extradition Order delivered by the Home Secretary for Mike Lynch to go to America to stand for a US criminal trial. Armstrong shouts out to Queen Elizabeth II for her 70-year reign on the English throne.
  1. Tom Fox has a melancholy shout out to the University of Michigan School of Law and greater legal education profession, which lost two stalwart professors recently; Yale Kamisar, Father of Miranda and Terrance Sandalow, former Dean of the Law School.
