Where can you listen?

A monthly podcast where tech, law, politics, the world of work, and pop culture collide. Hosted by LinkedIn’s Chief Global Affairs and Legal Officer, Blake Lawit, each episode features candid conversations with leaders and thinkers who aren’t afraid to get into the “messy middle” of today’s thorniest issues. Where many podcasts focusing on these topics can be stuffy or formal, “The Messy Middle” serves as a lighter vector for these conversations and themes. We acknowledge that the news and the world around us, much like our own lives, can be a little messy but are unafraid to dive in. Expect sharp insights, real talk, and a dose of humor that illuminate an unexpected side of LinkedIn’s professional scene—plus a behind-the-scenes peek at Blake’s world.
