Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore a subject more fully. This week, Matt and I are pleased to host Mike Volkov, host of the Corruption Crime and Compliance podcast on the Compliance Podcast Network, and formerly worked in the DOJ, Antitrust Division.

In today's #CITW episode, we consider the current evolution of antitrust enforcement by the DOJ and FTC and how it might impact the Microsoft acquisition of Activision Blizzard.

How might all this play out in the Microsoft acquisition of Activision Blizzard, and what is the role of Compliance going forward?
