Description
lovelustlaw is a gripping true-crime-meets-courtroom podcast that pulls back the curtain on divorce, custody battles, and domestic violence—hosted by veteran judge and attorney Michele Locke, who exposes the shocking truths behind headline-making (and hidden) cases where love, lust, and law collide.
14 Episodes
Reverse
2025 was a year of glamour, growth, and bold moves—and Michele and Jake are here to spill it all. Michele teases her next chapter as an erotic literature author, shares her LA photoshoots and makeup transformations, and gets real about battling keyboard warriors (Angelina Jolie fans, we’re looking at you). Social media clips—and yes, a little cleavage—rose viewership, but Michele’s keeping it savvy for court. Meanwhile, Jake’s “snail pace” meets Michele’s cheetah energy, and together they’re plotting to pick up the speed in 2026. They also give a sneak peek at the next season of lovelustlaw, diving into overlooked legal stories in family law and criminal defense, centering survivor experiences, and taking the podcast to video. Glamour, grit, law, and laughter—this episode is all about reflecting, leaping forward, and being unapologetically themselves.

After nearly two years of virtual friendship, Michele and Jake finally meet face-to-face—first at a chic David Yurman charity event in Austin, then in Los Angeles for a glamorous Old Hollywood–style photoshoot. However, disappointment ensues when Jake accidentally foils Michele’s carefully planned airport surprise. Together, they clear up public misconceptions about their relationship and dive into candid reflections on friendship, connection, and the sometimes-blurry line between professional partnership and creative collaboration. Michele also opens up about the highs and lows of her travels—from a stressful encounter with American Airlines denying her service dog to the heartfelt care and kindness she experienced with Southwest Airlines. In LA, Michele fully steps into transformation. With legendary photographer Troy Jensen her glamour photoshoot becomes a bold, confidence-boosting celebration of style, self-expression, and reclaiming her sparkle—inside and out.

Welcome to lovelustraw—an unfiltered, unapologetic space where host Michele Locke opens up about her challenging marriage and the difficult yet necessary choice to leave for the sake of her well-being. Michele reveals how her upbringing and family dynamics, including her father’s battles with OCD and alcoholism, have shaped her journey. She also explores the complexities of a relationship with a significant age difference, midlife divorces, and the unexpected insights that emerge after separation. With humor and honesty, Michele jokes that it takes three different men to create the perfect partner—the provider, the bedroom expert, and the best friend. Joining Michele is Jake Deptula to share behind-the-scenes stories from launching her podcast lovelustlaw and how podcasting has become a therapeutic outlet for her.

Host Michele Locke—an experienced divorce attorney and former family court judge—delves into the highly publicized and turbulent divorce between Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards. Michele breaks down the intense legal battle, marked by substance abuse, domestic threats, erratic behavior, custody disputes, and relentless media attention. We take a closer look at Denise’s determined efforts to protect her children, including seeking restraining orders, and reveal the harsh realities many families face when addiction becomes a courtroom issue. Joined by victim advocate and executive producer Jake Deptula, Michele explores how family law can both aid and sometimes fall short for those caught in such challenging circumstances, highlighting the bravery required to find stability amid chaos.

Host Michele Locke — an experienced divorce attorney and former family court judge — returns to unpack the intensifying legal feud between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, ignited by tensions on the set of It Ends with Us. Michele breaks down Blake’s harassment claims, Justin’s defamation lawsuits against Blake, Ryan Reynolds, and The New York Times, and examines recent court rulings, legal strategies, and the mounting public scrutiny surrounding the high-profile dispute. From allegations of sexual harassment to retaliatory claims and media-fueled chaos, the episode highlights how public perception both influences and is influenced by legal proceedings. Michele also explores the unique challenges of handling celebrity cases, where the battle between privacy and publicity takes center stage. In a surprising turn, the conflict has drawn in Taylor Swift, underscoring how even tangential figures can be swept into the spotlight of a legal firestorm. As the case continues to evolve, one thing remains clear: the drama is just getting started. Stay tuned — this legal saga is far from over.

Host Michele Locke — a seasoned divorce attorney and former family court judge — dives into the explosive drama behind the film adaptation of It Ends with Us, Colleen Hoover’s hit novel. What started as a highly anticipated film quickly turned into a public legal battle with allegations of sexual harassment, retaliation, and on-set misconduct, sparking a fierce feud between stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. Tensions boiled over as Blake filed a formal complaint, revealing shocking boundary violations and improvised intimate scenes. Justin and the producers hired a crisis team to control the fallout, showing just how high the stakes were. Joined by executive producer and victim advocate Jake Deptula, they unpack the harassment claims, smear campaigns, and power struggles behind the scenes. From Hollywood PR wars to courthouse drama, this series exposes the messy reality of making It Ends with Us — with more to come in Part 2.

Divorce. Custody battles. Domestic violence. These cases play out daily in family courts—but the courtroom is just the beginning. lovelustlaw takes you beyond the headlines, beyond the clickbait, and into the heart of the legal and emotional chaos behind modern relationships. Hosted by Michele Locke—a veteran divorce attorney and former Associate Judge with over 5,000 domestic violence cases under her belt—this podcast exposes the truth behind some of the most shocking cases you’ve heard of… and many you haven’t.
From high-profile divorces to deadly toxic love stories, Michele breaks down trials with sharp insight into what went right, what went wrong, and how she would’ve handled it. Joined by Jake Deptula of Strictly Stalking and lovelustfear, they tackle the burning questions we’re all wondering about the messy intersection of love, power, money, betrayal, and survival.
