Lady Hale’s podcasts and videos

Through her podcast activity, Lady Brenda Hale extends her lifelong commitment to making the law accessible to a broader audience. In a freer, more conversational format, she reflects on her career, on the landmark decisions she was part of, and on other themes such as judicial independence, equality, access to justice, and the function of courts in a democratic society.

These conversations reveal a living, embodied form of thought, often grounded in concrete examples, and allow listeners to hear her voice in a register different from that of judgments or formal lectures. Brought together here, these podcasts form a valuable complement to her writings and speeches, offering direct access to her reflections and to her very personal way of inhabiting the law.
