Barely Legal Comedy Podcast

There is an annoying whistling coming from Mr Kehoe's office. Can the polymath, academic, former barrister with a post graduate European Law degree figure out a simple solution so that we don't have to listen to it for 45 mins? Spoiler alert: No. Find out more at https://barely-legal-comedy-podcast.pinecast.co This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Episode Notes What is imposter syndrome? Do you suffer from it? Are you worried that you don't suffer from it and maybe you should? More to the point what does all this have to do with Kehoe having to follow Baroness Hale, former President of the Supreme Court, speaking at an event for women in the law?

This ep is about some legal stuff, but seriously, Automatism is a great name for a band. Anyone able to play anything and want to join? I can play a bit of guitar and Kehoe can too but he will probably want to play a balalaika or a sitar or something equally wacky. Probably need a lead singer (1970's Debbie Harry type) and a drummer (Rick Buckler type) and then Automatism can start rehearsing. Anybody...? Hello...?

Episode Notes Should defendants have to face their victims and the family of their victims in court?

Episode Notes Mason Greenwood was "Cleared of all charges" according to statements from Manchester United and Mason Greenwood himself earlier this week. Was he? Comedian Tom Binns received a suspended sentence last week. Does this mean he was guilty or innocent or somewhere in between of the offences he was charged with? Surely a suspended sentence means he wasn't as guilty as if he'd been sent directly to prison. We also have a listener question and we reveal our favourite listener ever. We recorded this via zoom due to having ridiculous schedules at the moment. Find out more at https://barely-legal-comedy-podcast.pinecast.co This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Episode Notes This episode stems from a question from listener Toby Grier. We, (0h alright then), Kehoe, also answers the seemingly logical question, "Why when you are charged for murder, are you not also tried for attempted murder" posed by listener Gary Dugdale. If you have a question for us then send it in and we will answer it in upcoming episodes. We can be contacted on barelylegalcomedypodcast@gmail.com You can always send questions directly to Chris via his extremely niche Only Fans/ allotment owner/birdwatcher website. For legal reasons, I can't post a link to this as it's only available on the dark web. Also, feel free to send the show loads of money via the Tip Jar so I can buy a soft top Jag or maybe even a 911.

Earlier this month Tom Binns, a comedian whom both Chris and Alex know, admitted in court to five counts of "Making" and one count of "possessing" indecent images of children. Whar exactly does "Making" indecent images of children mean? What is the case law surrounding this topic? How has the law developed in recent years? What possible defences are there to the charges? Also, we have new equipment and Chris sounds ok but Alex sounds like he's underwater (lucky he doesn't speak much in this ep).

Just what disingenuous, tiresome, underhanded bollocks are the Home Office up to now?

What is a refugee? When is a terrorist not a terrorist? Is the Home Secretary to blame for a recent terrorist attack which led to a man's death? With thanks to @nataliehusdan
