Edward Cheng's Excited Utterance Podcast

Excited Utterance is a podcast focusing on scholarship on evidence law and proof.  The podcast aims to provide a weekly virtual workshop in the world of evidence throughout the academic year. More broadly, the podcast has four goals:

2) provide a biweekly forum on evidence scholarship;
3) demonstrate a new, more efficient medium for academic discourse; and
4) serve a democratizing function in the legal academy.
