Episode 25 - Jules Epstein
(0:00:38) Every episode has a Pahlke. For the first time, we welcome a Top Ten Pahlke! (0:13:26) Motion in Limine with Catholic's Lindsey Cloud Mervis and John Sharifi. A week before the first in-person NTC Nationals since 2019, we check in with the coaches who won that tournament. They talk about their successful careers and what it was like to win it all. Lindsey puts Justin in his place. And then we turn to this week's question. (0:37:57) The Big Interview with Jules Epstein. Temple's advocacy director talks about his career goal of becoming a radical lawyer, his style in the courtroom, his promise to a man on death row, his relationship with Eddie Ohlbaum, how he got the job at Temple, and what it was like to reach #1 in US News last year. He talks about his career as a DJ(!) and his coaching technique of borrowing a stranger's dog (!!). And he answers all seven of Justin's questions about the mustache.
