#65 How We Define Markets
Before you can conclude that a merger will result in a monopoly, you have to first ask a monopoly of what? Market definition is the analytical fulcrum that almost everything else in a merger case rests upon. Kirkland & Ellis LLP's Mike Singer and Cornerstone Research's Nathaniel Hipsman join host Anant Raut to explain how economists use the hypothetical monopolist and SSNIP tests to define markets. They then discuss the strengths and shortcomings of the tests, as well as the famous "cellophane fallacy" where the competitive price may actually be the monopoly price in disguise.With special guests:Michael B. Singer, Partner, Kirkland & Ellis LLP and Dr. Nathaniel E. Hipsman, Principal, Cornerstone ResearchHosted by:Anant Raut

#64 Music & AI
Is AI-generated music really so different from music created by humans? Kellogg Hansen's Josh Branson and George Mason Law School Professor Olufunmilayo Arewa join host Anant Raut to discuss the copyrightability of AI-generated music and the growing wave of copyright cases brought by artists, publishers, and record companies against generative AI companies. The conversation then takes a more philosophical turn: how have humans created music throughout history? If human music is inspired by what came before, is AI training on the same material and generating its own all that different? And what, if anything, is lost when the machine takes our place in creation? With special guests: Joshua D. Branson, Partner, Kellogg, Hansen, Todd, Figel & Frederick, PLLC and Olufunmilayo B. Arewa, Professor, Antonin Scalia Law School Hosted by: Anant Raut

#63 The NIL Arms Race
Antitrust birthed the arms race of name, image, and likeness money pouring into Division 1 athletics. Now college football has spiraled into a widening gap between haves and have nots, where NIL offers (supposedly distinct from pay-for-play) are driving athletes who have played professionally to try to return to college to play sports for a fifth year. Professor Michael McCann, professor at Harvard Law School and columnist for Sportico and Sports Illustrated, joins host Anant Raut and guest co-host Courtney Armour to discuss the flow of money into college athletics and what it means for amateurism in college sports. With special guest: Michael McCann, Professor, Franklin Pierce School of Law Hosted by: Anant Raut and Courtney Armour

#62 Greenwashing
In this 100% carbon-neutral episode of Trust and Trade, we talk about greenwashing, the practice of making claims about a product that make it sound more environmentally friendly than it actually is.

In this sustainably sourced episode, host Anant Raut talks to Nestle Health Science US's Greg Fortsch, consumer protection expert Christie Thompson, Kaelah Smith from the Office of the Connecticut Attorney General, and Lemuel Srolovic from the Office of the New York State Attorney General about recent cases brought by their offices and legal standards for environmental claims.

#60 Impact of U.S. Trade Policy on Investment in Canada
When President Trump imposed 25% tariffs on Canada, one of its biggest trading partners, it kicked off a series of back-and-forth tariffs between the two countries. As a result of the ensuing uncertainty, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has emphasized the importance of reducing Canada's reliance on the United States as a trading partner, announcing a new trade deal with China during a recent visit to Beijing. Does this signal a shift in the Canada-U.S. trade relationship, and create new opportunities for Chinese companies looking to do business in Canada? Canada's former Chief Trade Negotiator Steve Verheul and Blakes' Brian Facey join host Anant Raut to discuss developments in Canada's trade relationship with the U.S., and how this impacts foreign direct investment in Canada. With special guests: Brian A. Facey, Partner, Blakes LLC and Steve Verheul, Principal, GT & Company Hosted by: Anant Raut

#59 Mergernomics: Killer Acquisitions
What exactly do we mean by the term "killer acquisitions," and how are those deals analyzed any differently by antitrust enforcers? In this episode, host Anant Raut talks to economist Dr. Ethel Fonseca of RBB Economics and antitrust attorney Danny Mader of Hogan Lovells LLP about how potential "killer acquisitions" get reviewed by competition agencies, using real-world examples such as Sabre/Farelogix, Visa/Plaid, and Facebook/Instagram. They explore the complexities of merger analysis, the nuances of potential competition, and how the same deal can have different outcomes in the US and the UK. With special guests: Dr. Ethel Fonseca, Partner, RBB Economics and Daniel Mader, Senior Associate, Hogan Lovells LLP Hosted by: Anant Raut

#58 Mergernomics: How Tariffs Redefine Product Markets
How do tariffs redefine product markets? In this episode, economist Dr. Craig Malam and antitrust expert Carla Hine join host Anant Raut to discuss the effect of the Trump Administration's tariff-centric trade policy on how we determine the edges of a product market and what constitutes a substitutable product. Panelists then talk about what economists and defense counsel should take into account when the size and duration of a tariff can change with a social media post. With special guests: Dr. Craig Malam, Partner, Edgeworth Economics and Carla Hine, Weil Gotshal & Manges LLP Hosted by: Anant Raut
