Noted attorney and blogger Eric Troutman recently reviewed my book Telephone Terrorism: The Story of Robocalls and the TCPA. Eric is an expert on the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, and knows hundreds of tricks for defending alleged robocallers who are sued under this law. My book, on the other hand, mostly praises the individuals who are doing the suing. Despite this difference in perspective, Eric enjoyed the book. He said that it "really brings some of the more sterile pieces of the law to life and covers all the recent developments with color and verve." (He was kind not to mention all the profanity.)
Eric's review is here:
Thanks for the feedback on my book! I'm flattered by the comparison to John Oliver. Maybe someday I'll have a sewage plant named after me, too.
I'll be in touch with Eric regarding the invitation, but I'm not convinced that I would be a scintillating podcast guest. So, we'll see what happens.
The review is great, and while I appreciate his incisive analysis, I wish Eric would make more distinctions between (most of?) his clients and the truly malfeasant actors, the ones who generate most of the animus against some of those his firm defends.
The book is a gem. Your humor and insight remind me of John Oliver, thank you! I am reading the Kindle version on my phone, and I thank my children for allowing me to read a couple of paragraphs at a time, so I look forward to completing the book sometime close to the singularity.
I saw Eric's podcast / webinar invitation to you, and would love to see another one of Eric's chats with a pseudo-adversary.…
