PLT Unplugged: My Day On The Air

If I could send a message back in time to myself, I would say, “Sam, tune into Radio Eastern 98.1 on Friday evenings. They play some exceptional 90s indie Aussie music”.

I wouldn’t know this piece of life changing information without the genuinely amazing experience I had travelling with Grant Hutchinson, to participate in the two community radio segments the firm has with the radio stations 98.1 and 99.1.

Every month, Hutchinson Legal and YourLawyer answer questions put to them by the listeners of community radio. I was given the opportunity to do some research on the topic of street photography. I then got to share my research on the air and participate in some broadcasted discussion about other legal matters.

It was a phenomenal time, where I was able to learn from a senior member of the law firm, do some legal research, and engage with law topics that interest the broader community. This completely unique experience is definitely a highlight of my time doing PLT placement with YourLawyer.
