Simon, launches the highly anticipated Season 2 of his acclaimed podcast, "Outside Counsel.", kicking off the series with a three-part special with New York Times Best-Selling author and climate expert Jeff Goodell, and an update episode with one of our heroes from Season 1, Christy Couvillier, who is making major strides on the frontlines of the opioid crisis.  

This season, titled "Scorched Earth & The Burning of the American Consumer," confronts the most pressing issues facing American consumers today, including climate change and existential battles against corporate malfeasance.
