Richard Hsu, the chairman of Shearman & Sterling’s IP transactional group, has an interesting hobby: He interviews other lawyers about their hobbies. His podcast, Hsu Untied, has ranged from Intel senior corporate counsel Darren Flagg’s opera singing to Adobe GC Michael Dillon’s cross-country bicycle trek to Santa Clara professor Eric Goldman’s Slinky collection. We sat down with Hsu recently to explore what he’s learned about lawyers and their lives away from work.

How did this project get started? I started my original blog, HsuTube, doing videos with my daughter. I explained complex issues of IP, and I had my daughter do these drawings. It was well-received, and people really liked it. My wife said to me, “Your only problem is, your daughter’s not going to be 13 forever.” That was exactly the problem, because after she got to be about 15, she was not interested in doing it anymore.
