Season 5 Episode 5 - The Damages Expert

The sound is a bit bad because we’re sitting so far apart (together with editor Jan). Brian has called up damages expert Brent Kaczmarek [TIME 08:25] to benefit from his experience from hundreds of arbitrations. Joel then discusses sovereign immunity from enforcement, and in particular enforcement against central bank assets [TIME 41:48]. During Happy Fun Time we talk about paperless arbitration, a topic which has taken on new relevance in 2020 [01:05:19].

Season 3 Episode 11 - Those Who Can’t Do, Teach (and those who can they also teach)

Back from a one-week hiatus, we take on two substantive topics: sovereign immunity (from enforcement) [TIME 14:39] and tribunals’ powers to reconsider decisions made during the course of the arbitration [TIME 40:41]. The final segment is HFT, in which we discuss the peculiarities of teaching international arbitration [TIME 58:35].
