After nearly 8 years, just shy of 190 episodes, and countless conversations across the legal world, The Hearing signs off with a special, full‑team finale. In this reflective and heartfelt episode, the podcast's co-founder and editor, Ben Clayton, brings together the current hosts and producers – Kaley Botting, Yasmin Sheikh, Janelle Wrigley, Becky Annison, Teneé Frazier and Christina Lynn – for an open conversation about the stories, challenges, surprises, and stand‑out moments that shaped the show.
Together, they revisit the podcast's origins – from rough and ready in‑person recordings, to pandemic pivots and globe‑spanning remote interviews. The team shares their most memorable guests and episodes, the legal insights that surprised them, the ideas that never quite made it to air, and the behind‑the‑scenes mishaps that kept everyone on their toes.
This episode celebrates the curiosity, serendipity and sheer joy of exploring the law through conversation, as we reflect on the privilege of connecting with so many listeners. Regardless of whether you found us recently or you've been listening for years, thank you so much for your support! 🙏🏼
