Marcia Clark, best known as the lead prosecutor in the O.J. Simpson trial, has become a trailblazer for women in law and beyond. Her journey from courtroom to bestselling author reflects her resilience and determination to redefine herself amidst intense public scrutiny. On this episode of Worth Knowing, Clark dives into her latest book, *Trial by Ambush*, which examines the 1953 Barbara Graham case—a story that highlights gender bias, media sensationalism, and the notion that all cases are subject to societal, cultural, and political winds. Clark shares how her experiences during the Simpson trial shaped her perspective on societal pressures and the role of women in high-stakes professions. Her reflections on how media, forensic science, and legal practices have evolved over decades offer valuable insights into the intersection of law and culture. This conversation is a compelling exploration of true crime, personal growth, and how Clark’s groundbreaking career continues to inspire a new generation of women to challenge norms and forge their own paths. Marcia Clark is a bestselling author and a criminal lawyer who began her career in law as a criminal defense attorney and went on to become a prosecutor in the L.A. District Attorney's Office in 1981. She spent ten years in the Special Trials Unit, where she handled a number of high-profile cases, including the prosecution of stalker/murderer Robert Bardo, whose conviction for the murder of actress Rebecca Schaeffer resulted in legislation that offered victims better protection from stalkers as well as increased punishment for the offenders. She was lead prosecutor for the O.J. Simpson murder trial. In May of 1997 her book on the Simpson case, "Without a Doubt," was published and reached #1 on the New York Times, Wall St. Journal, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, and Publishers Weekly bestsellers lists. In February 2016, Clark re-released the book with a new foreword.

Episode 144 with Codie Aljets. A long awaited conversation between myself and Codie finally took place and we put it on the record for all you to hear. I've been online buddies with Codie for a few years now. We have shared stories, tips and just life updates. This man has a lot to share and we definitely didn't cover all of it. His life in art and Metalwork was our focus, but we also touch a little on some of his previous endeavors and life struggles. One thing I found very informative about this conversation was Codies explanation of using a wooden block to shape metal while still cold. He might have a forge and anvil, but to the surprise of many that see his art, most of his work is done cold. Many thanks to Codie for sharing his story with the world and many thanks to the listeners. I hope you all find this one to be informative and helpful. CanIron 2025 That's right ladies and gents.

Episode 142 with Jin Singh of Wootz Militia located in Birmingham England. Black country as it's known for its history in the metal working world. Jin shares a shop with an actual foundry that is located right down the street from some very prominent companies including Brooks, Peter Wright, Norton and many more. His shop now produces some of the world's most excellent wootz and also does some spectacular historical work. Jin comes by this trade in a very honest manner although his path wasn't clear to him at first. His grandfather was the village blacksmith in an Indian village, but Jin didn't take on this trade until later in life. He tells us of some history in his family and how that transcribed into his current business. Jin's knowledge in wootz and the history of it was spectacular to listen to. Not only the history of Wootz, but the uses of it as well. This episode will fill your notebooks! If that isn't something you've done in the past then this episode is where it starts! Many thanks to Jin and the International Wootz Society for their efforts in maintaining and sharing the knowledge of such an amazing metal process. CanIron 2025 That's right ladies and gents.

EP 139 Jennifer Strassel of Pirate Metal Works Forge Side Chat is proud to bring you a conversation with Jennifer Strassel of Pirate Metal Works. If you don't follow Jennifer I highly recommend you do. This girl does metal art in such an amazing way. She is no stranger to hard work and once you listen to her story you will most likely have gained an even bigger appreciation for her and her work. This conversation is one we were really looking forward to as Jennifer utilizes techniques that are similar to blacksmithing, but are also much different. We share ideas and exchange knowledge between the three of us as we dive into the world of metal art. We also touch on aspects of life that have brought us struggles and wins. Not only is her work something to admire, but her positive choices and lifestyle are something I admire. It's not everyday you get to chat with someone who openly shares so much about themselves! Business, family, love, friends, work and personal freedom. Hope you enjoy this one and gain some good. I know we did!

EP 137 Beau Beckett of Beckett's Blacksmithing The real Beau Beckett you hosers! Not that fake account trying to sell you tools. This guy is the real deal. Over 30 years of blacksmithing under this guy's belt. Architectural, industrial, artistic and even knives! This guy does it all, but has found himself diving deep into historical blacksmithing lately. Specializing in the war of 1812 between Canada and USA. Sorry American friends we won that one eh! But Beau enlightens us on some details there. A great chat as always, was a late night one so the mood is a little on the chill side for this one. Sit back, relax and grab a strange brew eh! Or maybe get in the shop and finish up that project, the hand sanding, s or get that place spiffed up already. Either way we hope all you hosers enjoy. Take off and have a good day eh!

Milan agreed and away we went. Milan is a knife maker that specializes in the Japanese style of knives, but even more so is the fact he specializes in stone sharpening. This is where Steve found himself really wanting to know more. We chat a lot about this and much of Milan's life as a knife maker. Another great episode! Thanks Milan! Hope all you hosers enjoy eh!

EP 135 Skye Wallace This episode has been sitting in the bunker for a couple weeks. Way too much going on right now and I partially explain at the end of the video, but that is seriously just a droplet of what all has gone on. Top it off I was a little unsure about some of the things we spoke about, but regardless here it is. I don't think I really edited anything out including the ad read for the knife show. Alas we are back at it and have another great epiaode with a knife maker from France coming up next week! Skye was a pleasure to chat with and I'm now constantly listening to the DND podcast that she is a part of. Highly suggest checking out @planetarcanapod @skyewallacemusic and I spoke about some cool stuff that I'm sure many of us in the blacksmithing industry will find a relation too. Art comes in many forms and she is no stranger to that. Funny how someone who doesn't work with metal posting a Bob and Doug video ended up becoming a guest on a blacksmith show. Oddly enough she has actually moved hot steel on an anvil before. Listen and find out more! Hope yah hosers enjoy eh! Good day!

EP 128 with Ilan Shenfield of Shenfield Forge near Edmonton, Alberta This week we have Ilan Shenfield on the show from the Edmonton Alberta area. We sat down a couple times with Ilan to record a show. The first recording was solo hosted and went into some deep dives on personal matters that go well beyond blacksmithing. Wasn't sure about releasing that so we sat down again. The second recording, this one, stayed focused much more on metal work. Some good info in this show, but some good stuff missing that was in that first recording so that one might just get released soon. Until then, or the what ever comes next, I hope this one brings something good to your ears. Cheers and good beers eh!

EP 127 Zac Mahadeo of C&Fe with Natalie Rekai from Toronto, Ontario Finally another episode! This one was recorded a few weeks ago, but with life comes challenges. The last few weeks have been nothing short of that for me (Lando). I solo host this one, but with Zac's wife joining it has the normal 3 person vibe. A great conversation ensues about life, love and of course blacksmithing. We dive into how Natalie and Zac met at a blacksmithing course that soon turned into a very strong bond. How their relationship has helped them grow and continues to not only as artists but in business as well. Hope you all enjoy this one and may the next be not so far away eh.
