- THE SINGLE LIFE WITH SAM PHILLIPS
Lots of screaming
Just a lot of people that don't seem to have much of a life. A typical show is finding a article about relationship or sex advice and reading it to the listeners. Most of the show will have several people talking at once - Basement Design Pro
Good ideas!

Here, Adam Freedman deciphers the curious wording and odd phrasing behind legal lingo for the rest of us in plain English. Adam Freedman writes the “Legal Lingo" column for the New York Law Journal Magazine and was a litigator before joining a major investment bank where he earns his living decoding policies and procedures into plain English. He holds degrees from Yale, Oxford, and the University of Chicago and has written for Newsweek International and Slate.com, among others.
