ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
This week I'm catching up with Marcus Grey — a friend I met through Julia and Hannah, and now an in-house litigation attorney for a major record label in New York. We talk about what actually changes when you go from billing hours at a law firm to being "the client" in-house, and get into the surprisingly complicated business of music: why a single song is really two separate copyrights (the master recording and the composition), how that split played out very publicly in Taylor Swift's fight over her masters, and the wave of AI-related disputes now landing on his desk. We also nerd out on word origins — where "attorney" actually comes from, and why a group of lawyers is called a "bar" — before Marcus opens up about rediscovering piano and trumpet after years of law school and job changes pulled him away from them. He closes out this episode's signature segment with some genuinely solid advice to his younger self about trusting the process through big decisions.
