Jeff responds to the accusations against Russell Brand with questions such as: How do we balance the court of public opinion with due process? How can we address the harm caused versus purely punishing the accused? Is there a middle path that neither rushes to judgment nor exoneration?

In today's episode, Jeff reads the late Terry Dobson’s essay The Aikido of Love which explores the "No Sword School" – a philosophical approach to martial arts, particularly those from Japan, of non-attachment and adaptability.
