On today’s episode Federal District Court Judge Robert Conrad sits down with Jake to discuss his new book Keeping Their Souls While Losing Their Heads. Judge Conrad’s work looks at the lives of Saints John Fisher and Thomas More and the great life lessons that we can draw from these two incredible men in our own day and time. Due to his experience as a federal judge, federal prosecutor and defense lawyer, Judge Conrad’s in depth look at the lives of these two great saints is often through the lens of an attorney.
