Shaniel Lewis is our guest this episode. Shaniel's a 2L student at Osgoode, and it's her first time being a guest on a podcast.
Shaniel looks back to law school from the perspective of her 1L self. The amount of readings were a shock to her, she didn't expect to be reading cases everyday, including weekends. Richard wonders why it's such a shock; Felicity admits she also found the first year to include a lot of reading, but admitted she's a slow reader and knew it would take a lot of time.
Richard reveals that he wanted Shaniel on the show because she was a talker in class (as was Felicity), and is curious what they do to rein themselves in. Both agree that asking good questions in class is valuable, but sometimes it is better to go up individually to a prof. Shaniel drops the bomb that she sometimes ask questions just to get a laugh. The lesson to be learned, ultimately, is don't be annoying with your questions. Richard is put on the spot as to what he does with bad questions; he's far too diplomatic to ever say such a thing out loud (although he thinks it!)
