Premeditated
Graham Cameron and Neil ZumwaldeEtiquette has a new judge.
Graham Cameron and Neil Zumwalde investigate improvised social lawbreaking in a moderately thrilling, low-stakes fictional true crime podcast. We weekly and boldly prosecute the most innocuous violations of social decorum in a world that’s both too polite for its own good, and too shamelessly chaotic to continue unpunished.
In each episode, one of us brings a "case file", an unlegislated social law. We collectively create a scene in which this law is broken, leaving the other to react to the unfolding etiquette crime with shock, confusion, support, or judgment.
Then we drop the act and deliberate on the correct legal consequences.
The crime? Social faux pas that we all secretly fear.
The trial? Ten to fifteen minutes of litigation.
We bravely dig into these micro-crimes, cross-examine experts (ourselves), and debate whether these laws should be upheld, expanded, or struck from the record entirely.
Tune in for untrue crime, biting social commentary, courtroom drama (minus the stakes and education), and the gratification of seeing manners put on trial. It’s a procedural where the crime is petty, but the crossexaminations are also petty.
In a world teeming with rules you didn't even know existed, Premeditated is your court of last resort.
Where can you listen?
