Dive into a double feature of legal intrigue as 82 Toothpicks tackles The Banshees of Inisherin and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. What do a remote Irish island feud and a father–son quest for the Holy Grail reveal about inheritance, guardianship, and the consequences of poor planning? This episode blends cinematic drama with real-world estate planning insights you won’t see coming.

Thad, Ethan, and Joselyn unpack wills vs. trusts, probate pitfalls, and powers of attorney—plus how capacity and consent shape elder law decisions. From family farm succession and intestacy on Inisherin to trusteeship and cultural property in Indy’s world, we explore how clear documentation, beneficiary designations, and simple planning can defuse decades of conflict.
