North Texas Law Firm Debuts Podcast Decoding Legal Headlines
“The law shouldn’t feel like a locked room only lawyers can enter,” says Levi McCathern, who launched a new podcast this week alongside partners Arnold Shokouhi and Carl Evans. The trio aims to strip away the jargon from high-profile news stories, offering listeners a candid look at the legal mechanics behind today's headlines.

The debut series, titled The Law Behind the Headlines, features the three equity partners of Dallas-based McCathern, Shokouhi, Evans. With a combined track record spanning nearly three decades of practice, the hosts intend to bridge the gap between complex legal theory and public interest. Early episodes tackle common misconceptions—such as the digital permanence of deleted text messages—and offer a detailed examination of the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Beyond technical legal analysis, the show provides a personal window into the partners' lives, including Shokouhi’s journey from fleeing Iran as a child to his current role as the firm’s CEO. The partners emphasize that the project is an extension of their long-standing professional friendship, designed to invite the public into the same conversations they have behind closed doors. Future installments will feature criminal law experts and industry leaders, shifting the focus toward real-world case examples and the practical application of law in high-stakes environments.
