Hello!

As some of you know, I spent four days in early January 2023 on Jury Service. Now, I don't know how many of you listening have ever been called, and in any case some of the concepts seem to work differently depending on legal jurisdiction, so I thought it might be interesting to talk about some of that on this podcast. Plus it beats me nattering about Reddit or something. I don't know.

Although I don't talk too specifically about the case, I'd like to be open about potential content warnings about crime and victims, but I talk more about that in the podcast itself. The bit to avoid is between about 27:50 and 33:55. Otherwise, grab some biscuits and pretend you're listening to Law & Order: Special Brew Unit.

Topics discussed in this episode are:
* New Year, new Google Analytics
* Housekeeping - future trips, future pods, future YouTubes
* Why I'm not cut out for yoga
* How you get selected for Jury Service
* No you can't do Jury Service barefoot
* Everything's a surprise until you get there
* The purpose of a jury
* What is evidence and what is not evidence
* The layout of the courtroom and who's who in it
* The expected course of a trial
* How a jury reaches its verdict
* Very brief points about my trial
* How I felt afterwards, including acute loneliness

A PDF transcript of this episode is available.

As always, if you have anything to say about the topic, or indeed about my podcasting in general, leave a comment or let me know. I have a newsletter with extra content, and where I'll be mentioning future podcast episodes if you want to make your own contribution.

I also have a Patreon - if you like what you hear, and want to access exclusive content (or just to show your appreciation), then head on over.

Until next time, bye for now. :)
