       I love the "Law and Chaos" podcast. I don't always have time for it, and it's a lot of the similar kind of waffling that many people don't like about e.g. "This Week in Virology".But that's why I like it. It's just friends hanging out and offering their deep expertise about current events, and you get to be the fly on the wall. When I do have the time, I'm always happy that it's there for me.Maybe the best thing about it is that Liz Dye is a nerdy lawyer and Andrew Torrez is an even nerdier lawyer. She will go in-depth on some recent event, and then he will go even deeper, provide some obscure background, make a joke about a case from 1983, until she audibly rolls her eyes and goes "... ok", and moves on. 😁Thank you to #LegalEagle for pointing me their way.#LawAndChaos #podcast#LizDye #AndrewTorrez

       @clacke I have been listening to "This Week in Virology" for a long time now. I was recommended to listen by a TWiT virology podcast that was closing down, and came to enjoy it a lot. It helped me cope with the pandemic, and is teaching me a lot. I have started following Vincent's virology lectures recently.I have a Zoology degree and embarked on a PhD in the 1970s, which I eventually abandoned. The TWiV preamble reminds me of being a student back then, with lots of daily chat going on 😃
