Aug 7, 20261 h 14 min

In this episode I sit down with Tennessee criminal defense/domestic relations attorney and legendary viral video creator, Dana McLendon III. A trial lawyer with more than three decades of courtroom experience defending clients in some of the toughest cases imaginable. A graduate of Vanderbilt Law School, Dana has built a reputation as a relentless advocate, combining sharp legal strategy with a deep understanding of human behavior. Alongside his legal career, Dana also dedicated more than 25 years to serving in city government, giving him the rare perspective of simultaneously practicing law while helping shape public policy and municipal governance. His experience working both inside government and in the courtroom has provided him with unique insight into leadership, public service, and the intersection of law and government. Outside the courtroom, Dana became an unlikely internet sensation as the creator of the "Hot/Crazy Matrix," a comedic relationship white-board presentation that has amassed hundreds of millions of views and become part of internet culture.
