In this episode, we have the quartet of Jonathan Marks, Jonathan Armstrong, Karen Woody, Jay Rosen, and Matt Kelly on various regulatory and criminal law topics. We conclude with our fan-fav Shout Outs and Rants section.

1. Matt Kelly’s implosion of Twitter since its takeover by Elon Musk. He shouts out to everyone who votes.

2. Karen Woody looks at court cases attacking the expanded authority of the SEC to use in-house courts and judges rather than Article III courts and judges. She rants about the Russian government’s treatment of Brittney Griner and her shipment to a Russian penal colony.

3. Jonathan Marks at the question of whether the PCAOB should be folded into the SEC. He shouts out to the Houston Astros for winning the World Series and continues his ongoing rant about takeaway food from Chipotle.

4. Jonathan Armstrong looks at the conviction of former Uber CISO Joe Sullivan and explores what it means for CISOs and CCOs. He shouts out the Houston restaurant Mac N’ Wings for having Asian/Southern fusion food and the hottest curry he has ever tasted.
