Finally!!! Oyez Podcasts

For those of you ahead of the curve on this one, please forgive me for my excitement here... For those of you wondering what all the commotion is about, listen up, because the Oyez website has finally been upgraded with an Oyez Podcast (If you're not sure what a podcast is or how to use one, this link should help).

Oral arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court have been an enigma of sorts for law students and practicing attorneys for years primarily because of the restrictions and limitations on access to viewing the arguments themselves. Audio recordings have been allowed now for years, however, actually gaining access to a full oral argument wasn't easy until a website was launched a few years ago which actually posted mp3 files of the oral arguments (see Oyez.org). Initially, the site promised to be the next great coming for appellate advocates and Con Law enthusiasts alike, however, as terms slipped by, the site never added any new audio to their original playlist (which featured some historical arguments in addition to recently argued cases).

So it is with great excitement that I add a link to the Oyez Podcast website under the "Legal Podcasts" heading at right.
