From testing reactions to workplace videos to developing more effective voir dire, the episode highlights practical tools for understanding how jurors may interpret a case. The discussion demonstrates why an independent perspective can be invaluable in refining the trial narrative, anticipating juror concerns and keeping the outcome focused on the evidence.
