What an excitement to have a very sudden opportunity to talk to Professor Dershowitz. My friend Lawrence Ryz dropped him an email on my behalf, he said “yes”, I sent him a Zoom and off we went. And the conversation was as vibrant as it was rich in anecdotes.
Just need to talk to him again after this. Among the Jeffrey Epstein/Prince Andrew trial, we discuss how free speech is being imperilled on university campus and he accuses BBC News of “advocacy not journalism”.
He also tells a great golf joke about the Lubavitcher rebbe! All human life is here, listen now to Professor Alan Dershowitz.
