S18 Ep26: Iris Eytan - Protect Ethical Prosecutors Jul 05, 2026

Show notes

Bob is joined by Iris Eytan, the CEO of Protect Ethical Prosecutors, an organization focused on prosecutorial misconduct and accountability. Etan discusses her career in civil rights, public defense, and criminal defense, and says her path into law was shaped by work with people with mental illness and unhoused teens, as well as by her family background. She explains that her early cases led her to see recurring abuses in the criminal legal system, including failures to disclose evidence and other rule violations. Eytan says the organization was founded to educate the public, build a misconduct database, and pursue legal change in Colorado, including a possible ballot measure after legislative efforts were blocked. Eytan says Protect Ethical Prosecutors wants accountability for intentional, knowing, and reckless misconduct, while not targeting good-faith mistakes. She points to cases such as Richard Glossip’s and a Colorado disbarment case as examples, and encourages people to report misconduct, recognize ethical prosecutors, and get involved.

Show notes

Two years after their first appearance, Kerry and Quinlan returned to the studio with Bob to discuss a new show that they had just started at the time. A show which barely got discussed as the trio ended up having a hilarious conversation about absolute nonsense as they always do. This throwback episode will provide zero meaningful insights, but is very likely to give you a nice chuckle. Enjoy some much needed positivity on this Thursday morning.

Show notes

In this throwback, Bob makes fast friends with the hosts of the Truly, Darkly, Creeply podcast cast. Kerry and Quinlan are both actors, comedians and writers by trade. As you can imagine, that combination paired with Bob's love on nonsense turned this hard hitting interview into a lot of laughs. Enjoy!

S18 Ep24: Heather Lewis - Bail Reform Jun 21, 2026

Show notes

Bob is joined by justice warrior Heather Lewis. Heather is the Executive Director of the Reuniting Family Bail Fund in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. She has a master's degree in Human Services and has worked with vulnerable individuals and families in the Philadelphia-area community for nearly two decades. She is also a practitioner of Participatory Defense and serves as a national trainer teaching the model around the country.

The Montgomery County hub was the first participatory defense hub established outside California.
