Observations from a Civil Procedure professor during a pandemic. As a personal project borne out of an effort to create a "pandemic of kindness", the purpose of this podcast is educational and mental health related. Please refer to the Osterholm Update from the University of Minnesota's Center for Infection Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP) where Dr. Osterholm each week encourages us all to be part of a pandemic of kindness. https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/podcasts-webinars. Advance Thanks to Taylor Swift for her use of "Out of the Woods" for educational purposes.

Episode 8: Walking
This episode also gives you a chance to consider how you want to maximize your efforts during the Fall Break, this episode has a two-fold purpose. On one hand, it focuses on how using walking to maximize your memory retention and time, as walking can be the ultimate “double dip,” in terms of work life balance. On the other hand, it is also about how to move forward in times of personal and professional challenges. If you’re finding this point in the semester, it helps to stop for a moment, take a deep breath, recognize where you are, remember what you have accomplished, and know that you can and will manage to get through the challenges you are facing. And in case it helps, here’s another tip. Enjoy the self-care app, Finch: https://finchcare.com.
As "Out of the Woods" was their personal anthem for the Pandemic, Prof. Franck is grateful to Taylor Swift (who now owns the masters and 'Taylor's Version') of this song for its use in connection with student mental health and the limited educational purpose of keeping students moving forward. Prof. Franck encourages all students (or other listeners of this podcast) to peruse the TS website to purchase merch and music to thank Taylor Swift for their contribution to their education: https://www.taylorswift.com/.
Thanks also Mary Mary for their song, Walking, on their album Something Big, with their label Columbia Records for the fair use of a limited aspect of the song provided to my 1L students for limited educational purposes only. These amazing sisters have a YouTube channel where you can see their video for the song, which is amazing in its own right: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-baoSWy8jY.
