    Hey everyone!

    We made it to episode 25! When we started Trainee Talk, we weren't sure a podcast in this space would work, so a huge thank you to all our listeners for your continued support :).

    Our guest in this episode is Jonty Bouskill, a customer success manager at Wazoku.

    In this episode, we discuss how Jonty pursued his interest in legal technology and secured his previous role as a legal tech consultant at Neota Logic, which included working within Allen & Overy’s Fuse.

    You'll learn more about what legal technology is, its benefits, and the challenges in its early adoption within law firms. Jonty also explains how you can learn more about legal technology if you have an interest in this space.

    I can’t seem to be able to listen to any of these podcasts (before episode 23) on any of the platforms. Have they been taken down? Is there anywhere else I can access @Jaysen thanks !
