Greg Ellis and I discuss his recent project, The Respondent, and his critique of the US family law and court system. We cover divorce statistics, mending relationships, the impact of the divorce industry on families, the incentives behind it, and much more.
Greg Ellis is a British author, television director, voice artist, and actor who has appeared in Oscar-winning movies directed by Hollywood superstars. He has produced and written for TV, starred in Broadway, and voiced characters for many movies, TV shows, and video games.
His most recent work, The Respondent, is a multimedia combination of personal experience and a critique of the family law system in America.
