Season 1 : Episode 2 — Do The Best You Can Until You Know Better. Then, Do Better

Every law starts with a reason. Or at least, it's supposed to.

In episode two, Heather and Sean dig into the question underneath all the others — why laws are made? Is it to protect people, to maintain order, to reflect what a society values?

One of them has studied the theory. The other has lived with the consequences. Together they pull apart the logic — and the lack of it — behind why laws get made at all.

Season 1 : Episode 1 — My Aim Is Not To Be Right, Just Effective

Welcome to Braking the Law — the podcast where a legal professional and someone who definitely isn't one sit down to ask a simple, uncomfortable question: what happens when the systems meant to deliver justice... don't?

Heather Anson has spent years inside the law. Sean Colley has spent years outside it, mostly confused by it. Together, they're not here to win arguments — they're here to figure out what actually works.

In this first episode, they introduce the idea behind the show and take their first proper look at the World Justice Project— a global body that measures how well countries are living up to the rule of law. The results are, let's say, humbling.

Serious where it needs to be. Silly where it can get away with it. This is Breaking the Law.
