If every buzz, badge, and Wordle streak has you checking your phone like it’s your job—well, you’re not alone. And if you are a lawyer, it kind of IS your job. Between clients, courts, and colleagues, being “always on” can feel like the only option. But what if you could make a few simple tweaks to reclaim your attention (and maybe your sanity)? In this episode, we talk with Steve Pratt—author, entrepreneur, and podcast expert—about his personal mission to break up (a little) with his phone. We wanted to hear from him about the real-life experiment he has been running as part of his "Midlife Field Guide" project, to see how small, intentional changes can free up more time and make those hours actually feel good. In our conversation, we dive into how technology messes with our brains, what’s at stake when we never unplug, and why it’s surprisingly hard to scroll less. And yes, we laugh—a lot—because if you can’t laugh about your screen addiction, what can you laugh about? Full credit to Steve for the title of this episode, which came from his excellent Midlife Field Guide experiment and Substack posts recording the journey: https://www.midlifefieldguide.com/.

Deal or No Deal - How Should Law Firms (and Lawyers) React to These Threats?
Right now, big law firms are being asked to enter into “deals” to extract themselves from Executive Orders. Mike and Darlene talk through our thoughts on this, and its impact on the legal profession as a whole, mainly by responding to the NYT Daily podcast interview with departing Skadden Arps associate Thomas Sipp. We’re asking ourselves what we might do if faced with a similar choice. And as always, there are goods and gripes! Mike is glad about Guerrero Jr., but he gripes that it seems people have to be attractive forever now. When do we get to just be comfortable? Darlene thinks vacation is utopian, but the new “mouth tape” trend is highly dystopian.
