  • Summary

  • The Let’s Go To Court podcast brings together two of the greatest legal minds of our time. Just kidding. We’re your hosts Kristin Caruso and Brandi Pond. What we lack in legal training we more than make up for in being completely obsessed with lawsuits. Every week, we discuss two juicy legal battles. Each episode is peppered with Brandi’s booming laugh and Kristin’s Olympic-level talent for putting the word “so” into every sentence. The podcast started in 2018, but we’ve been having these conversations for years. What can we say? We’re just a couple of lifelong friends who love the drama of a trial. Our other interests include: liquid eyeliner, Fresca, and begging Noodles and Company to bring back the spicy chicken caesar wrap.

  • 291: Mark Zuckerberg Signed This Contract

    291: Mark Zuckerberg Signed This Contract
    Mar 27 2024
    In this final episode of Let’s Go To Court, Kristin takes us full circle — with a con man.

    In his hometown of Wellsville, New York, Paul Ceglia was known for his dishonesty. He always had a scheme going. He often got caught. In fact, he got caught in 2009 running a fraudulent business. But our pal Paul claims that it was in that dark moment, with the government coming after him, he discovered something incredible. While going through his old files, he found a contract that had been signed by an 18-year-old Mark Zuckerberg. According to that contract, Paul was the rightful owner to 84% of Facebook.

    And now for a note about our process. For this episode, Kristin read a bunch of articles, then spat them back out in her very limited vocabulary. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.

    In this episode, Kristin pulled from:
    “Facebook Face-off” episode of American Greed
    “Facebook fraud suspect on the lam; family, dog also missing,” Associated Press
    “Facebook friend or foe?” by Tim Graham for The Buffalo News
    “Fugitive Ceglia to be returned to U.S. to face charges of attempting to defraud Facebook,” by Phil Fairbanks for The Buffalo News
    “Ceglia has bad day in Facebook lawsuit,” by Dan Herbeck for The Buffalo News
    “Paul Ceglia: The man who owns 84% of Facebook?” by Van Voris for Bloomberg Businessweek
    “The buy who says he owns 50% of Facebook just filed a boatload of new evidence – and it’s breathtaking,” by Henry Blodget for Business Insider
    “Facebook’s suit against lawyers for Ceglia thrown out on appeal,” by Bob Van Voris for Bloomberg News
    “Where in the world is Paul Ceglia? Possibly Ireland,” by Phil Fairbanks for The Buffalo News

  • 290: The Death of a Salesman

    290: The Death of a Salesman
    Mar 20 2024
    Bill Mowbray was *the* Cadillac dealer in Brownsville, Texas. His dealership spanned five acres. His financial success seemed undeniable. He had a massive home. He had two condos on the beach. He owned exotic birds. But beneath the surface, Bill struggled. He had a spending problem. He had multiple affairs. He struggled with suicidal ideation. So, when he died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot, investigators didn’t immediately question his wife, Freda Susie Mowbray.

    And now for a note about our process. For this episode, Brandi copy and pasted from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.

    In this episode, Brandi pulled from:

  • 289: The My Lai Massacre

    289: The My Lai Massacre
    Mar 13 2024
    On March 16, 1968, members of the United States Army carried out a mass murder against unarmed Vietnamese civilians. They killed 504 people. Two hundred and ten of the murder victims were under the age of 13. Afterward, military leadership did their best to cover up the massacre. They didn’t anticipate that a few brave people would tell the truth.

    And now for a note about our process. For this episode, Kristin read a bunch of articles, then spat them back out in her very limited vocabulary. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases.

    In this episode, Kristin pulled from:
    “My Lai” episode of American Experience
    “My Lai Massacre” by Douglas O. Linder for famous trials.com
    “My Lai Massacre,” entry on Britannica.com
    “The truth behind My Lai,” by Christopher J. Levesque for The New York Times

Great Podcast

These two women seem really genuine, goofy, and charming while still being respectful of the victims of these often horrible cases they research. I am very happy I found this podcast!
