Why both hosts stopped identifying closely with being attorneys

Pat's decision to stop practicing law and embrace uncertainty
The coloring book approach to life and work
How Kid Cudi's "Pursuit of Happiness" captures a moment of transition
The spiritual nature of legal practice and dealing with various forms of "death"
Why most legal work is just "Control A, Control C, Control V"
The crumble cookie-ification of professional services
How AI will reshape the legal profession
