Episode 9:"Blood On My Name; Jaime Lannister's Oath to Catelyn Stark" - a podcast by Maester Merry & Clint
from 2020-08-13T17:00
In this episode, inspired by Jaime "the Kingslayer" Lannister's iconic so many vows speech, Merry & Clint ask: Did Jaime Lannister appropriately choose which vows to uphold and which vows to forsake from a conflict of interest perspective? From an ethical one?
The Kingslayer's disciplinary hearing also features:
- an in-depth comparison of lawyers and knights!
- enough discussion of the American Bar Association's Model Rules of Professional Conduct that this really feels like it should count as ethics CLE hours!
- the return of Kiwi and Doc Holiday accents, as well as your favorite burrito shop!
- condemnations of nihlism, role morality, and Gerold Hightower!
- the announcement of the WBA's terribly creative punishment for Jaime!
