Wednesday 12 Midday to 2pm

Presented by Joanna Smith

Join Joanna each week on Radio Blue Mountains for Pros & Cons—a lively, informative and entertaining look at the law and the issues that affect everyday Australians.

Co-hosted by husband Nathan, the show breaks down legal topics into plain English, explores current events, and answers common questions about the law, rights and responsibilities. From wills and estates to consumer rights, property, criminal law and the latest legal developments, Pros & Cons aims to make the law accessible to everyone.



Nathan asks the questions many listeners are thinking, while Joanna draws on her experience as a practising solicitor to explain the legal principles, dispel myths and offer practical insights. Along the way, they’ll share stories from the legal world, discuss interesting cases and invite listeners to submit topics they’d like covered in future shows.


Whether you’re curious about how the law works, want to understand your legal rights, or simply enjoy thoughtful conversation with a touch of humour, Pros & Cons has something for you.


Please note: The program is for general information and discussion only. It is not legal advice, and listeners should obtain independent legal advice about their own circumstances.
