Episode 75, the GOAT and Pandemic Edition

Welcome to the only roundtable podcast in compliance. Today, we have a quartet of Jonathan Armstrong, Jonathan Marks, Matt Kelly and Jay Rosen for a deep dive into plethora of topics generally related to the GOAT in football and the Coronavirus pandemic. We end with a veritable mélange of rants and shouts outs.   

1. Jonathan Armstrong joins us from London to review the UK Supreme Court decision in the KBR Section 2 document request case. He shouts out to the UK Judiciary for its perseverance during the Coronavirus health crisis and a special shout out to Texas lawyer Tiddles the Cat.
2. Matt Kelly considers the recent CDC guidance on vaccine and the return to work movement by asking how it all will impact compliance. Matt shouts out to GOP Representative Adam Kissinger for his calling out the hypocritical behavior in failing to punish Donald Trump for leading an insurrection against America. 
3. Jonathan Marks looks at the Fraud Pentagon in the context of fraud risks in the era of the Coronavirus pandemic. Marks shouts to former National Holdings CCO Kay Johnson for her victory over her former employer who fired her when she investigated the company CEO for securities law violations. 
4. Jay Rosen pens a love sonnet to the GOAT and his former QB Tom Brady and looks at Tompa Bay’s accomplishment from the compliance perspective. Rosen shouts out to Twitter and FB for banning the former President from their platforms. 
5. Tom Fox rants about former KPMG UK chairman Bill Michael who was forced to resign after telling KPMG employees to ‘stop whining’ about working during the Coronavirus pandemic. For good measure Michael said there was no such thing as ‘unconscious bias’ against minorities.
