In this hard-hitting episode of the TikTok FAMOUS™️ Podcast, host Meredyth Willits sits down with trial attorney and viral truth-teller Tom Bosworth—aka @tommythelawyer—to talk about the intersection of law, health, safety, and social media.   With a calm voice and a courtroom edge, Tom’s content is known for unflinchingly exposing the real dangers behind everyday products, procedures, and corporate corner-cutting.
