Show Notes

Clay and longtime friend / former co-host Shaun Yurtkuran (former Hinds County Assistant DA and top criminal defense attorney) dive into Mississippi’s new 50/50 joint custody law and the push for single-party (no-fault) divorce.


Shaun gives his unfiltered take as someone who has worked both sides of the family law bench: whether 50/50 should be the default starting point, how it affects kids and parents, and why forcing one spouse to stay married against their will (when the marriage is clearly over) doesn’t make sense.


They discuss the financial incentives, fairness to fathers, the impact on children, and why the current system often drags out ugly fights and drains families financially.
A thoughtful, no-BS conversation about marriage, divorce, and family law reform in Mississippi.
